Capgemini Paper interview experiances

Capgemini Paper - 24 April 2007
Hi friends!!!!
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 Test
b) Group Discussion
c) Technical Interview
d) 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. 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"....etc
If possible please forgive me. I'll be obliged enough if my experience would help someone to get a job.



for GD they had asked to select ur own topic and give 5 min for that show ur participation there also that will help u to fatch some more marks

plz don’t select any easy topic like “dowry system”, “dress codes in collg” etc.

because this gonna select only 1or 2 candidate from ur group so try to take some good topic so that max can get cleared the GD

Mine topic was: “should sex education b given from primary level or not”

For interview they will just look for ur confidents.

Questioned asked were simple

Like : introduce yourself dat it is not given in ur resume,

Which all campus did u seated for etc…

These were very easy

I couldn’t seated for CTS bcoz of my present backlogs

In tcs : out in tech interview

Accenture: again couldn’t seated

I was frustrated

But finally I got a chance to seat in capgemini and luckily I was one of the 13 selected candidate.

All the best meet u in capgemini

Then came the Technical or Management round..In this round either you would be asked some HR queestions like Tell Me about Yourself or some cases would be given to you and you have to get the best possible answers..They gave me a puzzle from Shakuntala Devi and told me to complete it in 30 secs.I confidently did it in 20 secs.And they would also be askin you abt ur Hobbies and details on them..Then I was told to wait outside for HR round..

Friends remember in Capgemini every person has to undergo thru TECH and HR..They evaluate you on your total performance starting from written marks,GD,Tech qualities and HR... Then in my HR round i had to face the HR Head of Kolkata--VANDANA mam.She asked me on why I joioned Capgemini inspite of there being so many big companies like TCS,CTS,etc.
Then asked abt my projects in details..Then asked me on my hobbies,Extracurricular activities..A situation was given to me how I should overcome it with the best possible outcomes. like that..and then asked questions like Why i joined KIIT,Bbsr apart from having joined in an Engineering college in Kolkata(I am from KOL so shes asked this)..Like this..i was so confident withe the answers that my HR was pleased..It was a 20 mins Interview..Then she finally asked me if I have any questions for her.I asked her soe like what a company expects from the freshers and wat subject a fresher should be acquainted with properly b4 joining a company and like dat..Then she told me it was over and I had to wait outside for results. Finally when results came out at 12 am ..i was lucky to find my name in the 5th call...What they said was they marked a person totally starting from Written GD,Tech ,HR..mine was the 5th rank out of the 300 ..Hey guys I was so lucky..After having failed to even clear the written in WIPRO,MINDTREE,L&T INFOTECH I was really very depressed and now i ve cleared CAPGEMINI --a MNC wow!!

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 = 9
Now 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

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 = 9
Now 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.

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 = 9

Now 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

Capgemini Placement Paper
Capgemini Placement Papper Pattern
Capgemini has generally 2-3 sets of question booklets but
still try to appear in the second batch. Paper has 3 sections.


1.Quantitative 25 ques
2. Analytical 30 ques
3. Verbal ques 25 ques

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..

CapGemini/Kanbay papers
Capgemini papers at various places in INDIA -2007

My name is Keyur. I recently appeared for Capgemini, it is a very good company. they are giving a package of 2.73lac. On 19th we had the aptitude test, then on 20th we had a GD round. After that there is technical cum HR round.

Aptitude test was of 1hr online test and it consists of 25 questions in analytical section and 25 questions in logical section.

Analytical section was tough and is very time consuming. u can refer R.S.Agrawal quantitive for this section. do that book very seriously try to give more stress on speed, distance, time, ages, simplification, permutation and combination chapters. but note that u dond waste much time in this section dont give more then 35 min to this section.

Logical is quite easy and u can score good points in this section. u can refer (R.S.Agrawal logical reasoning) for this section. do the puzzle test and data sufficiency chapters very perfectly bcoz most of the questions were from this 2 chapters. I think doing only this 2 chapters is enough.
I was not able to clear the apti and the cut off was not disclosed. may be it was around 30 right questions.

Next round was GD round many of my friends cleared it and went for tech cum HR round.

capgemini 2007 papers-2

In general Kanbay (or) Capegemini is conducting it's test pattern as follows:
-----1) written test --> mathematics + analytical (very easy)
-----2) group discussion
-----3) general interveiw (technical partly & maximum of hr)

1. Written criteria:
at 11:00 we have attended 4 written
I feel that as an enginnering student it can be answered without any preparation since mathematics is our intermediate basis & analytical is our commonsense...

Mathematics---->30 ques + }---->60 min & correct--1m; wrong--->1/4 -ve marking;
analytical----->30 ques

Cutoff---->min of 10m in each section......
No "over" cutofff...
Attended : 300
passed : 66

I Did well & luckily I'm one of 66.....

2. Group discussion:
12 a batch ; totally 6 batches... our topic is "ragging in campuses" iam the initiater ; fluent in english & started smartly by replacing, the culture of ragging with interaction among sr's & jr's.....
I Lead the team efficiently through out my discussion by
---> releasing new points when deviation in team observed
like organisation of events like sports & freshers meet to have healthy interaction among them
---> made the team to run on my words & ultimately gaining trust from them to my point
---> good body language;evoking points like by frequent get-togethers with sr's jr's can acquire academic knowledge efficiently & faster than single one's...
---> So, initiate; come with good points whenever necessary; etting consensus is quite important at the end... U get selected in gd if u follow this

Result :out of 66 ;;;"44" are selected since all batches done well as a team & group... I'M one of themmmm...

3. Interview:
absolutely it is a full pledged hr --interview.........
I Was called & I entered the rooom (I was from "ece" background)
--> Good evening sir! -->Hi sravan take ur seat
--> thanq sir
--> tell me about yourself ?----> I covered my resume with the addition of my qualities
--> intersting areas --- 8085 mp & programming in 'c'....,
--> asked me 2 write a program in 8085 assembly language
--> about linked lists in "c".....
--> About flipflops in dcs...
--> How do u react if u r not selected in kanbay ?
--> Gave an extra-ordinary answer with good vocabulary....
--> After my answering to all questions he asked

Only one thing that "how can u give ur answers in such an effective way!!!!
I Think u have prepared every word before interview ????????"
answer: to be honest "yes" sir ...

--> Then his question was "so u speak all this formally because of interview but not really??"
answer: no sir "words are not coming from mind,,,evoking from my "heart".......""
--> for this he was impressed very much by saying "wow what a golden word"... after that he asked my strengths
--> habit of doing it now; versatile & flexible ; optimistic

Tooooooooooo impressed
he asked about location : mumbai, pune, hyd etc.,
I said that 'I will go with the company'
that's my interview completed....

Out of 44 ---- selected -> 30 ******** I was a Kanbaian now**********
I attended
--> accenture ; mindtree ; hp-------> out in gd'ssssssss
--> infosys --> out in interview
I left out ->wipro & satyam ( I.e., I myself dropped to these companies due to having no interest in them)

All my friends recruited but iam waiting for good company
nspite of that I have attended with abundance of "confidence" which is key to success


CapGemini papers 2007-kolkata

I'm here to share my experience with you. CAPGEMINI visited our campus on 24th April. It was declared only the previous day and we heard that aptitude test will be substituted by GD. But on the d day we had altogether four rounds.

APTITUDE TEST
GD
TECHNICAL
HR

Aptitude test was the main elimination round. Out of 116 candidates 44 was selected. The topic for our GD was "The present status of our cricket team". The GD round went very well and all 12 members were selected.

The technical was a bit tough. Be prepared with one of your favorite subject. Questions were from C, C++, DBMS, O.S.
EX:
Define pointer.
What is Null pointer?
Algo for bobble sort, binary search
Basic questions of C++. like class, polymorphism...
Normalization-3NF, BCNF...
HR ques are also asked in this round.

Finally HR round which is very easy. 18 candidates cleared technical out of which 9 were selected. The results were declared on 15th May. so all had to wait with great tention.

My only advice is be confident, have patience.. and hope for the best.

each of 7 digits from 1,2,3,4,5,6 & 9 is represented by letter in the subtraction of problem above.

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 = 9
Now 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
(b) Which letter is represented by the no “5” ?
Ans (b) N
(c) Which no is presented by the letter “E” ?
Ans. (d) 6
