ARICENT PAPER ON 19th JULY
hi this is sunil kumar garg from national institute of
technology, jamshedpur . today i m going to share with u
mine experience of aricent campus placement
first of all i start with written test........there is no
negative marking.......u will get every section
separately..........mean u will get first one first n before
completion of its time u will be given
next one....n u will be asked to stop first one a do next
one.....one thing i want to tell......this process is really
pressure creating....n u will have to be calm n cool
some of ur section may be screwed up but don't screw paper
next to it.......u have to qualify only in screwed up paper.
Section 7: E-mail writing:
in 5 min u have to read question as well write the mail on
certain condition. mine condition was............
there is a cloth show room.........which pay back amount
with in the 3 days of purchase....a lady asked to refund the
amount after one week..........
u r manager of showroom and u have to write apology mail to
her.
Section 6: Comprehension
u will be given one comprehention most probably on some
technical issue.....i was given on sso.
it will be followed by 10 question.
In my coll question n comprehention was given together but
question may not be given with comprehention.
first of u will have to read the comprehention n then u will
have to answer that question without looking back to ur
passage.
Section 5: C or C++ (choice is urs)
i have chosen c n kanitkar book was very help to
me........if u want to qualify.....
u have to be very good in this section.
question were on increment operator decrement
operator.......pointer......variable passing to
function........array......enum....structure.....file.
question was very basic.........go through objective book of
kanitkar.....u can't do without it.......u need a practice.
Section 4: Operating system, data structure and algorithm
frankly speaking......i m very good in data
structure.......but it is not worth will to attempt it
first......as it has long cords and u have to find o/p
or error......attempt operating system first and then
algo......
If u will go for data structure first u will certainly get
screwed....have a good concept of operating system......
Section 3: Mental ability.............
It was damn easy.........u have to score a good marks in
it.....if want an edge over other....practice more
through....any marittrack paper as of accenture or ibm.
Section 2: Analitical ability......
don't mess up with a particular problem........u can't solve
all....just chose easy one and do it
because of time limit u can't do all....so why not to attept
easy one. practice ibm or accenture paper.
Section 1: Verbal ability
practice.......articals n preposition.......don't take it
easy.......smtime it may screw u.
u may think that u have screwed up ur paper……..but don’t
give up……bcoz every one have done the same.
now it is time of interview……………………..
panel was very cool………….doing everything themselves……….very
down to earth.
I was first for interview………….The person who was taking
interview come outside n escorted me to the interview table.
I wished him……….he asked me to give an introduction of
myself. Meanwhile he was seeing mine profile……..from up to
down…….for that I was ready……..n u may say it ws my luck……I
had a lot of certificate to show.
He was very much impressed………..He asked me about my
different subject from first semester………frankly speaking I
was frightened……..i couldn’t tell him. Who remember……what is
chemstry and mechanics.
But suddenly he stopped asking all that. He asked me the
difference between unix n linux. I screwed up……..
After that he asked me about mine favorate subject……..i told
computers networks.
He asked what it is………I defined……..
He told me to draw a network…….i draw an hybrid one……..he
asked me about token ring…….i answered satifatorily…….then
he came to different layers….asked different function of
all……then why tcp/ip………what it is………if not then what……..i
answered satisfactorily……….
After that he asked me to write a program of factorial that
compile in first go without any warning or error. I did with
for loop. He then asked me to write with recursion……I did..
Consider all condition of negative and positive. Never sckip
up any condition….
After that he came to operating system and asked about
interrupt………..described it to his satisfaction including all
taking from interruption handling n mode switch n context
switch.
Completed………tech
I was relaxing………suddenly one member came from came n asked
me to follow him.
I did.
After going into the room, he told me that he will talk more
on programming ….at that time I was really scared……..bcoz I
was acpecting hr. he gave me a program to write.
Conditin was as follows…..
U have to take one number from user of integer type. It is
of 32 bit and u have to count the number of 1 and 0 in it. I
did it……..it was a good program……n u can’t do it without
practice……….so if u want to get into it……..practice
programming on paper not directly on moniter…….bcoz writing
code on paper is really tough.
After that he asked me question on unix………….a senario
created that make me laugh today itself………..
He asked me that u don’t know unix n want to learn it………what
u will do it?
I told that first of all i will purchase a book n try to
read it…….if find any difficulty then consult to faculty
then to my senior. He told me that let u don’t have any of
this thing then what u will do? I told that I will use my
internet……will go to google and type unix tutorial……..he
startes to smile……..then he asked me that do u know what a
‘MAN’ is?
I replied the appropriate answer…..that it is a command to
know about a particular command. He told me that can’t u use
it……..that time I told him that……sir u told that u don’t
know unix….then how I will able to use it……n my comp may not
have unix install in it……..he started to laugh…..he was
impressed….
Then he asked me about……..networking(tcp/udp/ip), message
passing in operating system……..mine second round of tech was
superb.
Then after 3 hours I was called for hr…….asked me about mine
backgroung and mine family background……it was 4th company in
my campus……he asked me about any offer from other
company…….i told him that I m sitting for campus interview
for the first time. I didn’t appear for any other
company…….he was shocked……he asked reason……I repeated the
same lines what he had told in the ppt 2 days before campus.
Then he asked how u can take such a risk to leave all other
company….i told that I was a bit confident……..that I will
get through this exam……..then he told me that u r not….u
have done so bad in ur tech………now what u will do next……I
told that after result declaration I will get feebback from
u and after improving myself on certain areas I will apply
for off campus if not selected from this campus………he was
very much satisfied……then he asked me about mine preferable
location to work bcoz I had left that column blank in the
form what they had given…….i told that……as gurgaon, chnnei
and bangalore all r new to me…..i don’t mind working
anywhere as I have to explore any of these cities………he told
me that’s ok…….n wishes me a good luck.
Wish to see u all in aricent……….have a good luck…….
