Question:  TCS Interview Procedure -- Technical and HR interviews

Answer: successfully completed my tech+(hr+mr)  rounds, and  was selected in mumbai recruitment.
thanks for each and every group member.
 
my interview was held in Andheri (Mumbai).  the interview was cool . the panel consisted two members. they asked me the following questions.
 
   tell abt urself? 
   tell abt ur project? (they asked 3 to 4 que while i was explaining)
   DBMS ( different keys, normal forms, relationship between tables)
   OS( functions of os, algorithms of cpu, paging)
   Softaware Engineering( SDLC, Testing techniques, unit testing, modular testing)
  C++ ( polymorphism, virtual fuctions)
  LInked lists and searching techniques.
  Unix( 1 que, i could not answer for that)
  
  they asked questions for 30 to 35 minutes.
  i was unable to answer for  3 to 4 questions.(outof 20 to 25)
  but the interviewers were so frindly.
  they examine the candidate's confidence level and the way of explaining.
 
After completing the technical round, one person took me to upstairs  where our HR+MR interview was conducted.
 
the MR person asked me
 1) tell abt urself?
 2)abt my gab between my graduation and PG(MCA).
 3)asked abt cultivation ( as i told i helped my father in cultivation during my gab)
4) why should i hire u?
5) ur objective after 5 yrs?
6) do u know oracle? ( i said oracle 8, then he asked why oracle 8 instead of 9i,10i)
 
HR madam asked me....

 abt relocation 
abt medical test
 
i answered for all technical and hr questions with confidence.
  
 pls go through
 
c, c++ ,data structures, DBMS concepts , OS and software engineering .
 
then definately u will gain the confidence. they will ask only fundamentals from these.
if u find any walk in ,  go for that,howmuch ever it may be far.
 
i went for mumbai walk-in from Hyderanbad.

RE: TCS Interview Procedure -- Technical and HR interviews
 
I am Himanshu Sardana from Bharati Vidyapeeth's College of 
Engineering,New Delhi. All thanks to the group members,i got selected in TCS.I am sending all the information what i remember.BEST OF LUCK to all. 
 
The online exam was based on previous years pattern.Taken on software called Qubex.THERE WAS NO NEGATIVE MARKING. 
 
3 sections:- 
 
1.)VOCAB:- 
 
duration:20 min. 
10 antonynms+ 10 synonyms 
2 passeges easy but long. 
 
for this section prepare GRE barrons high frequency word list. 
but more importantly prepare excercises given in antonynms 
chapter(CH-4,barrons 15th edition). 
i got only 2-3 from high frequncy word list but 4-5 from excercises 
and TWO FROM EXAMPLES given in the antonynms chapter as it is without 
any changes. 
 
so prepare these things well.WORDS WERE NOT REPEATED FROM PREVIOUS 
YEARS PAPRES(not even single). 
 
there is no cut off in this section. 
if you do 8 out of 20(10 ant + 10 syn) you have done resonably well. 
 
divide your time well in advance. 
you should be through with 10 syn + 10 ant in less than or at most 10 
min.spend next 6- 8 minutes answering the passage.its easy if you can 
read and comprehend fast. 
spend next 1- 1.5 min reading and answering the second passage. 
 
in last 30 seconds just forget everything and mark all answers as 
there is no negative marking. 
ATEMPT ALL QUESTIONS do not leave any. 
most of people in our coillege who got through in written(including 
me) attenpted all questions. 
 
2.)APTITUDE:- 
 
duration : 40 min. 
38 mathematics and logical questions. 
 
this section is very easy but requires fast calculations. 
for this section prepare previous years papers well.90 % of questions 
were repeated. 
practice all papers so that you remember all answers without 
calculations becoz even figures of 90 % questions were unchanged. 
 
if you do this its pretty easy. 
 
however,be careful.there is a cut off in this section.so at least 
check your answers before you mark your remembered answers and be sure 
figures are not changed. 
 
3.)CRITICAL REASONING:- 
 
MOST DIFFICULT SECTION. 
duration : 30 min. 
3 questions of puzzle type(1 easy,1 good level and 1 very difficult) 
all repeated from prevoius years papers. 
 
dont try to remember answers to these puzzles as there are huge in 
no.just practice and try to develop your puzzle solving techniques. 
 
refer RS agg(verbel and non verbel aptitude) for these type of 
practice questions. 
 
i got 1 question - ocean view ,harbour view,hotel ,rooms - you can 
find it in prevoius year papers. 
 
rest two i dont remember. 
 
TRY TO FOGURE OUT THE EASIEST ONE BY READING FIRST PARA OF EACH 
PUZZLE IN HURRY. 
 
be sure to be through with easiest question in less than 10 minutes. 
solve the medium level puzzle by spending 15 - 17 minutes. 
 
BE SURE TO SOLVE THESE TWO PUZZLES RIGHTLY AND YOU ARE THROUGH. 
 
spend next two minutes reading all the stuff of third puzzle and try 
to answer it. 
well if you dont get anything just do this - MARK ALL ANSWERS OF LAST 
PUZZLE WITHOUT READING IN THE LAST MINUTE. 
 
ALL THE BEST.
