I-Gate
First was aptitude test. 15 questions. 30 minutes.. No choices.. No working sheets also! Find answer on ur own and write it down.. No -ve marking!
Questions: All quesion are easy if u have read R S AGGARWAL.
some quesitions: (numerical figures not correct)
--> if traveleld faster by 30kmph he would have reached 3 minuets earlier.. if travveled 30 lmph slower he will reach 3 minutes later.. so whts the original speed?
--->sea:bank then ____:coast (ans OCEAN)
--> a question on mixtures. water and milk in some ratio.. total price is given.. wht is the amount of milk....
--->ratio of 1t class and 2nd class ticket is 1:4.. no of tickets sold in the ratio 4:1. total amount collected is given.. fine colection from first clas alone
--->some coding related question.. ABC HAKDH IAS is denoted as JIADJ ADH AH 9some thign like tht) simple ones!
-->number series.. x/5, x/4 x/3 x/2 x/1 was the series..
cut off was 8 i think..
Took 28 from total of around 450 people.
Next was interviews
1)tech interview: most students said a lot of tech question were asked.. from c,cpp,dbms,os, data structures, sorting algortithms.
Simple Rule: BE Confident in wht u say!! else they ask us more details..
Interviewer asked me which all sorting algorithm i know."i said quick bubblle insertion slection"
then asked complexity of each.. thts all
Some were asked linked lists.. (no program was asked.. just explain concepts)
then referential integrity,foreign keys, types of sql quires (seletc, delet etc) etc etc
for me tech was little only! my resume said i have good interests in stock markets. so he asked a lot about that! i answered all of them and then asked 4-5 tech questions.. and about MINI PROJECT was aked..
Then interviewer will ask about ur marks in each sem.. if there is any drop,, he asks why..
for me its was a drop from 92 in 10th to 82% in 12th to 69% in betch! he asked me why.. just admitted i didnt study well ..and said i will score better in coming semester and will mak aggragate to 73%.. he asked 3-4 times ARE U CONFIDENT? ( like in KBC -BIG B ;) ) i said yeas! confident! sure!!
he said" if u dont make 73. i wont take u to igate!1 =)) )
then asked me why i want to join i gate..
then asked where u see ur self after 5 years.
then give me HR form.. and feedback also was given on spot! (my accent was week.. he told to improbve it..)
then HR..
HR interviewer hd nothing new to ask me . she just repeated wht was asked in tech!!
why igate?? dream achievement? tell us about parenst etc etc
at last "are u wiling to sign a bond for 2 years."
i didnt accept.. still they took me in!

I wanna give u some
I wanna give u some suggestions...........1st round was a written test .......they gave 15 questions to be answered in 30 mins with no multiple choice .........we need to solve the question and write the answer and no negative marking....... some questions which they gave are lengthy .don't panic by seeing them .they are very easy to solve......cut off was about 11-12 for 15 i guess......
73 people got selected for GD round from about 600 students who appeared for the written test.
Next coming to GD......each group had 10 members. So total of 7 groups in GD...............my my topic was on dress code( shud there be a dress code at college level?) and one more topic I remember for the other group was on reservations.....these are the topics I remember...... from each group they selected around 5 members.
So around 35 students shortlisted for personal interview (includes technical and HR separately).........
Next coming to technical round........... i am from ECE group.so i'll tell u wat the interviewer asked me.......learn c and data stuctures well (be prepared to write a program, bcoz the interviewer asked me to write a program without a single syntax or logical error so be careful..),then micro processors (8085,8086),then go thru some basics of communication and digital electronics(if u are a ECE student).......... if u mention anything about u'r paper presentations and mini projects in u'r resume be ready to explain them clearly.....bcoz he asked me about the papers which i presented in depth and he asked me to explain my mini projects ........if u r done wid all these u r going to clear technical round for sure.....
Next coming to HR round........1st the basic question.... tell me abt u'rself...next u'r strengths and weaknesses.......u'r hobbies....etc,..... wat ever u say, say it confidently and try to be honest....its not a big deal clearing hr round.....but be careful wid tech round....ok ..............wat ever u speak be loud and clear in gd and personal interview..........try to speak positively ......avoid grammar mistakes while u r speaking and be confident.....don't worry its not dat hard.....u can clear them easily....all the best prepare well and do well...........
So finally 20 students got selected for iGATE out of around 600 students who attended the campus drive...
