2 ND SET OF QUESTION PAPERS APRIL 2007

Paper Type : Candidate ExperiencesTest Date : 24 April 2007Test Location : BIT,Kolkata

I'm Aniruddha Ghosh,a 3rd year engineering student of Bengal Institute of Technology,Kolkata. I'm here to share my xperience of the capussing procedure conducted by CAPGEMINI on 24th April,2007.

We had to face 4 rounds-a) Aptitude Testb) Group Discussionc) Technical Interviewd) HR interview

There was 50 questions in the aptitude test,25 questions on quantitative & other 25 questions were logical analysis. There was no such questions either on verbal or technical ability. The questions were standard, not very easy, but not at all tough, a little bit time-taking.Mainly the quanti questions were on basic--profit & loss, interest, fractions, speed...etc.The logical questions were on common sense, very ordinary logical questions followed by any book like R.S.Agarwal.The time management is the main key to solve the paper as per my point of view.

Total 116 candidates appeared for aptitude test, only 45 cleared the aptitude test including me.

The next round was GD. It was a wonderful experience to all of us. We have given "Lage raho Munnabhai---what's the social impact of that well admired movie". It was a very good topic to discuss, nearly all of us contribute more or less as their level best. I initiated the GD,& my friends also spoke well.9 people out of 11,were selected from our group.

In total they selected 36 candidates for technical interview. The moderator of our group was very friendly & he gave us enough time to discuss. Before starting the GD he said that--"nothing to worrie about, it's just a formal discussion", which was a big relief to all of us.

In technical Interview they asked very basic questions from our semester subjects. Specially C, DS, DBMS, Networking, OS, OOP & Microprocessor. CS & IT people please make urself comfortable with your departmental subjects, if possible Please go through Microprocessor also. They ask from here also.

Page 5: 1s t Set of Question s 2010 June

As I'm a student of IT department, I'm giving u the brief of my interview, but I've heard from my friends of ECE department, they were asked from their departmental subjects also.

I was asked to tell the respected interviewer the names of my past 2 semester's subjects. He listened those carefully,& asked questions from those subjects, I've mentioned earlier. Some questions was like---basic features of OOP-discuss, normalization, OS handling, basic questions on OS, OSI layer-little discussion, link lists, sorting,& last but not the least I was asked to write the algo of Quicksort,& some other questions also their, that I can't remember now. But over all there was no such contradictory questions, they never counter with your answer.

There were only 18 candidates including me cleared the technical round.

After some time I was called for HR interview. It was nice to giving an interview in a friendly atmosphere they created. I was asked to tell about myself, the respected madam who was taking my interview asked me from the points I mentioned to tell about myself. She asked me ---"what do u mean by optimism?","how can you prove that you are optimistic?","what do u know about software industry?", strengths, weaknesses. Finally asked me to question her about my confusions if any.

I want to share something with you, it was the 6th interview, I was appeared for. Previously I've rejected 5 times, but still I didn't give up. I want to say you people must have confidence upon yourself, that's the thing with which you can win, never become hopeless.I know what's the amount of pressure a candidate have on him, whenever he appears for an interview,& how was the feelings of being rejected one after another times.

So please try to be confident, always try to answer promptly, don't go for any false representation, as it reflects on your expression,& have faith on yourself---that's the key to crack.

Don't get me wrong, you may have feel that I'm giving too many advises that are useless, but I'm telling you, whatever I've said here, all are my own experiences. I personally believe that "failure is tha pillar of success",& YES, I'VE PROVED IT BY MYSELF, I'VE CRACKED CAPGEMINI,the renowned IT company in the industry.

The final result listed only 9 candidates who are finally selected,& I feel very proud to be 1 of those 9.Nothing to say more, BEST OF LUCK--to all of u. & VERY SORRY, if I made someone feel "boring", "time waste", "useless speech"....etcIf possible please forgive me. I'll be obliged enough if my experience would help someone to get a job.

CAPGEMINI PLACEMENT PAPER ON 4th SEPTEMBER 2008 (Pattern)

 This is omkar from D.M.C.E ,airoli, navi Mumbai. Cap Gemini visited our college on 4th September 2008.well let me tell u about myself, before CAPGEMINI I cleared 5 aptitude test ,1 GD ,4 TR and 3 HR and then too I was not selected. So u can think me as an experience candidate for placement) but I think my destiny was in cap Gemini . the overall procedure for the placement was as follows:-

 The online aptitude test consist of 2 sections of 50 questions.

1) Quantitative (1 to 25)2) Logical (26 to 50). Time limit:-60 min.

There was no negative marking. There was sectional cutoff.

Quantities section : consist of following question*) how many prime numbers r between 1 to 100? (ans :-25 (1 is not prime))*)a problem on speed ,distance, time like superman flies at 25mph, spiderman flies at15mph and phantom take 2 hrs to fly from NY to DC. If speed of spiderman is twice that of phantom .and distance between NY to DC is same as distance between NY to Washington (I don’t remember it well) there where couple of question like*) what is the distance between NY and DC?*) how long will superman take to travel from dc to Washington and back?*) I donno remember the 3rd ?*)the largest no between (7)-(2),(3)+(4),2*(2),6+(2)(X)=square root of X*)Arrange some numbers in descending order?

I will tell u guys if u want to crack quantitative section u have to do following section well ;-\1-numbers (5 question)2-average(2)3-speed ,distance(5)4-simple compound interest(2)5-profit and loss(3)6-progression (2)

Logical section : consist of following question;-*)a problem on if it rains on Wednesday it will rain on Friday and so on and 5 questions based on the data (the question on the data were scattered all around the paper i.e 1st question was no 26,2nd was no 30,3rd was 32,4th was 36,and 5th was 38) (easy)*)a problem on playground i.e A,B,C,D want to play on ground P,Q,R,S.A plays on p and Q. B on Q & R. C on Q and S.5 question where asked on the data (easy)*)a 5 question on relation i.e A is D mom. B is E mom. F is C son. B is G aunt(not sure).

Page 9: 1s t Set of Question s 2010 June

And some more data was given Let me tell u friends the logical question was much easy than quantitative .so first attempt logical and then quantitative. don’t go for solving all question of logical solve 15 questions of logical then go for quantitative since quantitative is difficult and there was sectional cut off. Keep last 5 minutes for guessing the answers of the remaining question.

In our college out of 80, 20 was selected for interview (since less student qualified, they cancelled the GD section and directly took the interview)

Well there were 2 interviews (TR and HR) My HR interview went like this

Q7. (a) Which letter is represented by the number “3”

Ans : Solution:-

3 6 5 1

(+) D E A N

-----------------------------------

S L I D E

It is given in the question that each of 7 digits 1,2,3,4,5, 6 & 9 is represented by a. Different letter in the above problem it is clear that 3+D+carry [If any] is equal to SL. But as it is clear that highest sum of there given no. can be (9+6+1)=16 so S = 1

Now it is also clear that D is either 6 or 9 but D cannot be 6, because in that case L, is equal to 0, which is not possible.

So D = 9Now from that it is clear that L Letter is either 2 or 3 & A=4, It is also clear that E cannot be equal to 5,4,3,2,1

So E=6

Now we can help of above conclusions.

Ans. to question no.

(a) = L

2. For MCA: 60% in MCA till date & no active backlogs. 

We were asked to report at 8:30am and to our surprise, the recruiters appeared sharp at 8:30 am

(unlike other company people who are generally 3 or more hrs late). Then started the selection

procedure. 

1) Presentation: All the appearing students were called in a hall to see a power point

presentation about the company. It was really interesting. We were formally introduced to the

HR and her team. Its always better to note important points form the presentation since it may be

asked in the interview. We were told about the package that we were going to get. It was 3 lakh

CTC per annum. After the presentation, we were asked to move in rooms for aptitude test. 

Page 17: 1s t Set of Question s 2010 June

2) Aptitude Test: Aptitude test was on paper and an objective type. The paper was divided into

two sections: (i) Quantitative 25 questions. (ii) Analytical 25 questions. We were given 1hr to

solve the paper. There was a sectional cut-off of 10 marks (it was told in advance) and there was

a provision of negative marking (0.25 marks deducted for every incorrect answer). I went for

around 15 questions from both the sections and managed to clear the aptitude test. Please note

that there were 3 sets of question papers and they contained very few common questions. But a

lot of questions (around 8-10) in each set were repeated questions (questions that had been asked

in earlier campus interviews by Capgemini). I think this helps a lot. 

So, I will suggest you to mug up all the questions by heart that I am giving with their answers.

of the above I would suggest you to go through as many Capgemini placement papers as

possible. The questions are very simple. Even if you are not very good at aptitude, you can make

it. Just be cool and imply your brain. After the aptitude test, the results were displayed after

around 2 hrs. 129 candidates managed to clear the aptitude test and were called for GD session. 

3) Group Discussion: 

All the selected candidates were divided into 13 groups of 10 students each. 

The GD was being conducted simultaneously in 3 rooms. Our group got the topic "Should GDs

be included in selection procedures?" Clearing the GD round is easy. The coordinators were

really very friendly and made all the candidates relaxed. In GD, you will have to show your

participation. Do open up your mouth, but at the same time, see to it that you are not disrupting

others. Dont loose confidence even if you are not a very good speaker. Just give strong points,

thisz what matters the most. After about 1hr the list of candidates who had cleared the GD was

displayed and they were asked to report in a room for further proceedings. 60 candidates cleared

the GD round. 

4) Personal Interview: 

There were 3 interview panels consisting of 2 members each. The interviews were going on

simultaneously. I was the third one to be called. 

Me: Good evening Sir, Ma'am. 

Interviewers: GE, please sit. How was ur day? 

Me: Great. We had pretty good time, selection procedure was punctal. 

Page 26: 1s t Set of Question s 2010 June

Int: But the guy before you was saying that he is too much tired and having head ache..? 

Me: It was a good day for me Sir, I am used to such schedule. (Actually they were testing if the

candidate can spend long working hrs or not. Please be very positive in your answers.) 

Int: How was the aptitude test. 

Me: It was good. Not very tough. 

Iv: Is it so because you guys got a lot of chance to cheat and ask answers from your friends? 

Me: No Sir, I didnt seek anybody else's help and did all my paper of my own. If you wish, I am

ready to solve it all again in front of you. 

Int: (very happy) Very Good. I like your confidence. (It was a direct fire. Keep cool under such

conditions and try to give good and positive answers that show your confidence against such

questions.) Then I was asked technical questions: whats printf, scanf in C? Was asked to write a

program that sorts both a character array as well as an integer array. (I wrote the logic) What is

type casting? Memory taken by diff data-types etc. Being a MCA candidate, although I was well

prepered for DBMS, Operating System, Data Structures questions, I was seldomly asked about

them. Then the lady asked me a question from the aptitude paper and asked me to solve it (she

didnt give me the full data). 

I told her I need more data to solve it. She insisted that it can be solved with that much data only

but I knew it wasnt so, so I kept sticking to my point. Then she asked me a couple of puzzles. I

dont know how I performed, but I think they see your approach to solving the problem. Further,

the gentleman asked me about my hobbies, my family etc. 

We discussed arout 2-3 minutes about my father's work (an armyman). Finally, they asked me

for my CV, a photograph, photo-copies of all my marksheets from Std 10th till MCA. Me: It was

a very great time with you Sir. Iv: Same here Amit. Good Luck. My interview ran for about 30

Page 27: 1s t Set of Question s 2010 June

minutes. Be cool and confident during the interview. If you are confident and have good

communication skills, there are strong chances that you may be selected. 

All the interviews were over by 10:15pm and we waited very eagerly for the results. We were

asked to assemble in a room where the HR, Preety Ma'am came on the stage to announce the

name of the selected candidates. There was a huge round of aplause for ever name being

announced. To my good luck, I was also one of the selected guys. A total of 41 candidates were

selected. We were then asked to maintain our aggregate (in BE or MCA) to a 60% at the time of

joining failing which, we wont be accepted.

Page 34: 1s t Set of Question s 2010 June

The most easy section is the verbal section. Just prepare Barrons well. One or

the other unsolved test papers of Barron's are replicated  as it is in the

papers...that means antonyms, synonyms, sentence correction ..  fill in the

blanks words like gaffe, contentious, altrustic, belligerent....  Quantative is so

so ..i mean 60 % is easy and rest is a bit tough...go thru the  geometric

theorms, formulas, quadriatic and linera section well.

Analytical is the most tricker one..it's very tempting bcoz 1 paragraph may

fetch you 4 correct answers...puzzles..all puzzles like 1 speaks french b

speaks chinesse and english..c speaks french and ... so arrange them in a

comfortable position so that they can converse with each other...other

question's like a heavier then b, m heavier then i and j , k lighter then d who

is d heaviest ?? so on..... 15 question's are easy but very time consuming

and rest questions although seem to be easy but try avoiding to attempt all

questions coz that will eat up all your time unless you are very good at

analytical..... 

Total questions 80

Total time 90 min's

NO UPPER CUT OFF

They say that there is no sectional cut off but still they have

minimum 5 5 8 questions..
