PEROT PAPER 8th JUNE 2008
Students who had 60% for 10th,12th and B.Tech with no current backlogs attended the test.....almost 600 students attended from which 30 students cleared the aptitude.....and 8 students were selected after the whole procedure....and i was one among them.....
Test Pattern
1.Test I - Aptitude
2.Test II- English
3.Tech Interview
4.HR Interview
5.GM Interview
Aptitude
qns 1-10 - 1 mark each Logical Analysys which had sequence completion...for that strictly follow RS Agarwal -Verbal & Non-Verbal....
qns 11-20- 1 mark each Data Sufficiency in which a question will be given with 2 statements....we have to analyse wether we r able to get the answer from a single statement, both statements or neither of those statements....refer Verbal & Non-Verbal RS Agarwal.....
qns 21-35- 2 marks each Numerical Ability in which normal aptitude problems like trains, time and distance, time and work etc...like.. -train passing a post -train passing a man standing in another moving train... -trains passing each other.. -some men doin a work...change in time wen some more men helped and wen some left the job after completing half of it....
-questions like... a/3 = b/4 = c/5...then find the value of (a+b+c)/c...... Strictly refer Quantitative Aptitude- R S Agarwal..
qns 36-45 5 marks each Programming section.....to my surprise C or BASIC languages wer not ther...insted they created a new language with new keywords....new looping functions etc. And a programming code was given wich was based on That particular language....so...we had to compare each statement of the code with the description given for each keyword used.........even though the code seemd very complicated....belive me it'll be a simple program like A+B or assigning a value to A.. Almost 5-6 questions wer of this type.....the rest wer algorithm and some simple questions..... Heard that some had flow charts....but it was not ther in mine.. Ther isnt any book to refer for this section.....as it may change always...
English
20 questions wer ther....100% simple......i'll say that its a lifeline while writing the aptitude....score 20/20 for that...
Tech Interview
I wont say that its a normal one.....questions will be strictly based on the resume......and if ur not strong in wat in wrote in resume...then its game over.....ther will be C questions.....but dont expect normal C interview questions.....questions will be something we hadnt imagined...he started the process by a friendly talk....and simple questions like enter strings in all the ways.....
Passing on to the core question of interview.....he asked me to write the equivalent code for modulus operator in C(%).....then he asked to
write the equivalent code for finding the absolute value of a number....the remaining questions wer from wat i wrote in resume....he asked me about html,linux file systems....difference between DBMS and RDBMS etc..... 6 candidates wer interviewd by that panel.....in wich 4 wer eliminated...
HR Interview
Its not an interview actually.....they just need to talk to u....to check ur communication skill,confidence etc.....be interactive.....i think its entirely different from the normal HR interviews......for me he asked me to sell my mini project product to an imaginary crowd.....be confident....avoid breaks in ur speech.....watever u say.....be sure that it wont affect the flow of words.......im writing it once again....they expect a friendly talk without being stressed or tensed........then ur forwarded to the GM...
GM Interview
Now the situation is really serious......he checks wether ur fit for the company...wether ur industry ready.......he'll check it in many ways.....he may give real world situations.....like wat will u do if u found that ur boss had forwarded a wrong design.....how will u inform him??......and he'll ask wat r ur qualities....and will ask questions regarding that......
Also will test u by asking how u'll react if u wer eliminated....be cool....eventhough it seems very easy and interesting....beware this is the place wer maximum elimination occurs.....ask him questions wich proves ur eagerness to work for the perot family and ur eagerness to know more about the company......
Finally...after 1 hr long discusion.....it was 9 pm wen they gave the result to Santharam Sir,our placement officer.......8 wer selected...eventhough i got selected, it was very disppointing that only one was selected from our college....
Tips
1.Study the ppt very well....by-heart each and every word he says......it'll
be very useful....
2.And pronounce it as "Peroe Systems"....dont say perot.....
3.Be 100% interactive....
Now i thank all those who posted their experiences in freshersworld. it really helped me a lot.....especially my senior Soumya who had posted last year.....
All the very Best....
