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..

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..

1.Aptitude

1.Aptitude Test
2.GD
3.Technical and HR interview
Aptitude Test:
15 question no choices, no worksheet will be provided,no negative marks, u have to work in the space provided in the question paper
some topics are Time and Distance, Probability, Problems on numbers, Average, Age, Profit and Loss and some other topics in RS Agarwal.. that is enough
GD: The topic i recieved is "TRAFFIC", the GD was about 20 minutes, There were about 10 students in one GD and 5 of them got selected, the HR asked everyone to tell their views about the topic and then started the discussion. I have talked a few times only but at appropriate time, Just tell ur points that is enough, avoid unnecessary arguments. Just talk and dont be mum.
When the HR itself ask u to talk(during first few minutes), make use of that opportunity, in a GD we have to grab our chance, so when the chance comes make the best use of it.
Techinical and HR interview:
There were only 2 HR questions for me
1.Tell me about ur self
2.How u will be in iGate after 5 years
The remaining were only Technical questions, there were some question on
DBMS and some SQL queries
Java(Basics) and other Programming Languages
Be Honest, if u dont know about some topics admit that u dont know
for all IT students it is a must that u will be asked questions on DBMS and SQL queries.
I have presented a paper and i have put that in my resume, so he asked about that paper also,if u have something like that please know everything in ur paper, this will also help u to divert the HR to a place where ur strong, Best of Luck .
