1] ITER, Bhubaneswar, Sudhanshu Sahoo
1) Pre-placement Talk.
2) Online-Test (Aptitude+Technical)
3) GD.
4) Technical Interview.
5) HR interview.
Lets talk about Online Test.
First you have to register & they
will verify your identity form (PAN card/Driving License/PAssport/College
ID). Then to appear the test you need to login by providing the login
credentials (that you would have given during registration).
There were 3 sections
* Aptitude 30 questions (30 minutes)
* C 20questions(20 minutes)
* SQL 10 questions (10 minutes)
There will be many sets of questions
& you can't find same questions from your near & dear ones. I repeat
there will be no repeation of questions.
At a time you can only attempt single
section, & once you have started doing any section you need to finish
that first, that means you cannot switch between sections.
The sectional time I'd mentioned above
wont be carry forward to the next section. At a time only one question will
be visible on your screen, check the correct answer, save & click next.
Ofcourse you can change your answer later (if you need to do so).
The good news is questions are not that
much tough you are expecting.
Aptitude questions basically from: Time,
distance, age, percentage, train, boat & 3-4 questions from english too.
Fundamental of C & SQL.
Finally if you donot submit your paper befor clock goes to 0:0 it will be
auto submit. & very soon result will be declared. So don't roam here
& there.
2nd
Round: GD
They had given us topic on
"Facebook(Pros & cons)" & "Media in India misutilizing
their freedom".
So to get selected you must have the
knowledge how to crack GD.
3rd
Round: Technical
This may go tough. They will ask what
ever they want. I will suggest you Pointer, & Control blocks. They may
also ask you to write some code.
4th
Round: HR
It will be easy. but be alert, in this
round they will check your communication skill. And finally
from my college they had selected only 6 guys & I was one of them.

2] 13 December 2010 , Priyadarshing
College of Eng, Nagpur
Pre-placement talk was started at 11 in the morning which gave us a raw
detail of the whole procedure to take place. The recruitment process included
four phases:
1. Online test
2. Group Discussion
3. Technical interview
4. HR interview
1.
Online test was having three sections:
a.
Aptitude test (30 ques.)
b.
C language (20 ques.)
c.
SQL (10 ques.)
Difficulty level was medium. We can easily crack any apti if we know how to
manage our time. So try to solve the questions as much as you can. Suppose
there are 30 questions in 30 minutes. Go for solving the questions up to 28
minutes and keep 2 minutes for tukka(choosing answer without having any idea)
if there is no negative marking. If you solve 15 questions correctly in those
28 minutes with added benefit of tukka session, you get more than 50% marks.
Do the same for all sections and I am 100% sure you would clear the
apti round.
In
GD round, we had the topic
"Is India a developing country or an emerging market". You can do
inception if you have sound knowledge of the proposed topic. If not, listen
to others, think upon the same and give your opinion. Do not interfere
others or you will loose some points. Do not cut others points rather
appreciate them. Adding a new idea would earn a point for you. GD is not a
quarrel. It is a place where we put our opinion and ideas. So try to keep
your body language like a professional because there would be someone
watching your activity.
Technical
interview was a bit difficult. However the technical interviewer
was calm and decent. He asked me various questions from c, c++, network
security, java and DBMS. There were some reasoning from c pointer. I tried my
best to reply. The key to crack this round is that do not hesitate if you do
not know the answer. Accept it and tell him you can do it if given some time.
The
last but not least HR round is also very important
round. It observes the way you express anything, your behavior and body
language. So if you have not much fluency in English, try to speak slowly and
accurately. The HR was a young man of about 28-30. The first question I was
asked was: Suppose you are taking my interview, what would be your questions
from me? Be prepared for this type of questions also.
I cleared all the rounds but still the result was doubtful. Final result came
at 7:30 in the evening. Finding my name in the list I was overjoyed. 10
students were selected out of 210.
What I experienced:
Where luck is doubtful, labour is sure.
We should not loose our hope because there is something special for us.
Failure teaches us the way to get success.

5] 3 January 2011 , Pimpri Chinchwasd
College Of Eng, Pune, Shilpi
Zensar conducted a pool placement at
Pimpri chinchwad college of Engineering, Pune on 3rd January, 2010.
Out of 10 participating colleges, there were 400 students who took the test,
63 were shortlisted and finally 30 were selected.
There was an online test of 60 mins which
had the following sections.
1) General aptitude (consisting of
english, Quantitative and reasoning) 30 questions for 30 mins
2) C and SQL technical section for 20 mins and 10 mins respectively.
The general aptitude section was comparatively easy. Please do the last 5
years papers of this company. It helps a lot. Do english and verbal and non
verbal reasoning a lot, because the quantitative section was quite easy. You
should have basic mathematics formulae by-heart and you should be good in
English. C and Sql sections consisted of questions on pointers, database
related questions, foreign key, primary key etc.
They took 1 hour to get the results out
and 63 students were shortlisted in this round.
The second round was Group discussion. We
were made into a batch of 15 students each. The topics can be socio-political
or completely dependent on the current news.
My topic was "India's obsession with
cricket is driving out all the other sports in the country". Please
remember:
GD does not mean that you will shout and
keep talking. Speak less, to the point, ineract with everybody, give everyone
a fair chance to speak, and give valid points, if you do not agree with
someone challenge that point and give justification for it.
The results were announced at 5.30 pm and I was selected along with few
of my friends. The technical round started at 6.30 pm.
They asked me my most proficient language. I said C.
Sir: What is C? what exactly do you mean
by C?
Me: C is a middle level language.
Sir (interrupting): What is a middle
level language?
Me: Explained.
Sir: What are pointers? Advantages of
pointers?
* What is struct? What is the difference between stack and queue?
* Write me a data structure for queue.
* What is data structure?What is heap?
* What is binary tree?
* Write me a program for swapping 2 numbers using 2 variables only.
* Write me a program for printing 2 numbers after multiplication.
* Write me a program for a prime number
* What is tower of Hanoi?
Then he switched to SQL.
1) What is foreign key and primary key?
2) Explain with example. Draw 2 tables of
student and College and show the relationship between them.
3) What is the difference between DBMS
and RDBMS?
4) Explain joins. What are the types of
joins? Explain natural join and semi join.
These are the only ones I can recall. My technical interview went on for
45 mins.
Please remember: If you do not know the answer to something, say Im sorry
Sir I cannot recall it right now.
Be honest.
The HR round was of 15 mins.
Basic questions were asked.
1) Tell me about yourself (advertise
yourself as much as you can)
2) Why Zensar?
3) What is your weakness?
4) What are your hobbies?
5) Why do you think we should hire you?
6) Do you have any questions?
Note: Please ask questions. Prepare something beforehand if you want. Watch
and listen to their pre placement talk very carefully. They can ask questions
on that.
Finally at 10.45 pm, we heard our results. I, along with 10 of my friends
were selected.
Be confident and smart, dress well and be
polite. That is the key for cracking the HR related rounds.

After that they gave us 30 mins break for lunch and then they called the

They want good communication skills.
The whole interview process last whole
day upto late night. After that they told us that final results will be
announced tomorrow means on 16th in afternoon. After a long waiting for
about 12 hours. They announced and displayed the list of selected
students. After looking at the list I got very happy.
I was selected in Zensar. I'm
Zensarian now. But the same time I got shocked as only 26
students were selected from 38 students in HR interviews. So friends don't
relax on HR interview also. Give your best every time. So thats all about
new selection process of Zensar.
So prepare well and be confident. You

1) General Aptitude Test:
It has 4 sections but we were told to
attempt only three as 4th section was technical with C and C++ questions and
it was an open campus for all trades,that's why.
(a)General English: with sentence completion,Synonyms,matching relation type
questions with 1 comprehension(a bit different) and yes most important
"English section was qualifying" means if u do not clear this section
ur paper will not be evaluated.
(b)Mathematics: simple problems overarea,
volume, probability, profit-loss, Simple Interest and all.just refer
R.S.Agrawal or Abhijit Guha..that will be more than enuf.
(c)Logical: Data interpretation type
problems.I guess it needs no practice. You gotta do it on the spot. just need

11] 27 January 2011 ,
Acropolis(o campus)Indore, Sakshi Nagar
Written Test:
60 ques in 60 minutes and were divided in following manner:
1.)30 ques aptitude in 30 in.
2.)20 ques opn C n DS n C++ in 20 min
3.)10 ques SQL in 10 min.
There was shortage of time experienced in apti section.In C part max ques
were to predict o/p.One should have thorogh reding of Kanetkar.Aptitude ques
had time,distance,percentage,profit n loss.Also from verbal they had given
some jumbled sentences and v were suppose to arrange them and select
apprpriate option.RS Aggrawal is enough for quanta.But speed has to be
maintained…………..
GD:
There were 13 students in our grp,out of which 4were selected.
Topic was “Are men better manager then Women”.10 min were given.Prior
only instructions were given that if fish mrkt is created,full grp will be
disqualified.Frnds GD needs a good command on language,statistics,and strong
n non repeated points.
Technical Interview:
They asked abt my project which impressed them at xtreme.Then a program
of call by value n call by refrence.
My intrvw was of about 15 min.Frnds the biggest strange thng
happened with me was,after technical I was not called for HR and one of the
volunteers told me that e1 my HR is Over.
Actually thng is selected me on the basis of Technical itself.They
altogether selected 24 students out of which 23 students gave HR n 24th was
me who was not called for HR.
I feel reason behind thi was,that I gave my technical with full
confidence having command over my language.

12] 11th March 2007
Nagarajan A
I] Aptitude Test of 80 minutes duration. It has four sections – English,
Quantitative, Verbal reasoning & Technical section which contained only C
& C++.
Each section consists of 22Questions.In all there was 88 questions in my
paper where as other sets had between 80 to 90. There was no negative marking
.There was an sectional cut-off but there were sectional time limits of 20
minutes each. U r only allowed moving on to the next section only when the
time of a section was up.
II] There was a separate technical and HR rounds.
TECHNICAL INTERVIEW:
On the next day they gave a detailed PPT before the start of the
interview process. They also give u a form to fill up. U also need to bring 2
copies of ur CV and 2 photocopies of your own as they’ll take one copy of the
CV(with your photo) along with the form.The duration of interviews ranged
from 15 to as much as 45 minutes.
I was the last the person to attended the interview.In the Technical
interview I was asked about the following questions:
* Tell about your favourite subjects?
* why did you chhose your favourite subject as
DigitalLogicCircuits?
* Draw the EX-OR Gate using NAND Logic(NAND gate) and explin it
with the truth table?
* what is Transistor?
* what is PNP Transistor?
* what is Triode?
* What is the difference between Stack and Queue?
* Explain about the Binary traversals?
* What is Inorder,Preorder,Postorder?
* Explin about the Software development Cycle?
* What is a register? What is the use of it?
HR INTERVIEW:
(In the HR Interview they were very friendly and also they expect the
frank answer from the candidates whom attended the process).In the HR I was
asked about the following questions:
* firstly i was asked to tell about my family?
* what do you like most in your Institution?
* what you don't like most in your Institution?
* what would you like like to change in your Institution?
* Why did you choosen career in EEE?
* Where would you be after 10yrs.?
* Would you like to grow in the Proffesional line?
* what are all the changes that you had observed in your
Institution?
* How about the interview process?
* How do you feel about written test?
* do you have any Questions to ask me?
Finally they announced the results one day after the process was over.
They selected 9 candidates. I was selected as was 9 others from my batch. We
were really happy for each other.
SUGGESTION:
Don't be tensed while attending the interview.Because they were very friendly
with you guys.also be confident on your self.Answer as many questions as
possible in the technical session with practical examples.
The aptitude round was act as a high elimination roundfor us.The
Technical section consists mostly of DBMS questions with few c and c++
questions.The analytical section consists of very simple mathematical
prooblems relating with average,missing nos,etc...but they had given five
sets of question papers( booklet )one for each candidate.the verbal section
was also easy containing some Anagram,Fill in the blanks with appropriate words,one
simple comprehension.(No need to prepare separately for verbal section).but
the logical section is some what tougher than verbal section.the time
management should bo very important to answer atleast 85% of the questions.It
is not possible to answer correctly for all the questions,it is just enough
if you answer the questions correctly of what you are doing with the help of
rough sheets and using your knowledge.But there will be a sectional cutoff
marks.
Prepare well & u can surely become a “ZENSARian”!

* C 20questions(20 minutes)
* SQL 10 questions (10 minutes)
There will be many sets of questions & you can't find
same questions from your near & dear ones. I repeat there will be no
repeation of questions.
At a time you can only attempt single section, & once
you have started doing any section you need to finish that first, that means
you cannot switch between sections.
The sectional time I'd mentioned above wont be carry
forward to the next section. At a time only one question will be visible on
your screen, check the correct answer, save & click next. Ofcourse you can
change your answer later (if you need to do so).
The good news is questions are not that much tough you
are expecting.
Aptitude questions basically from: Time, distance, age,
percentage, train, boat & 3-4 questions from english too.
Fundamental of C & SQL.
Finally if you donot submit your paper befor clock goes to 0:0 it will be auto
submit. & very soon result will be declared. So don't roam here &
there.
2nd Round: GD
They had given us topic on "Facebook(Pros &
cons)" & "Media in India misutilizing their freedom".
So to get selected you must have the knowledge how to
crack GD.
3rd Round: Technical
This may go tough. They will ask what ever they want. I will suggest you
Pointer, & Control blocks. They may also ask you to write some code.
4th Round: HR
It will be easy. but be alert, in this round they will
check your communication skill. And finally from my college they had
selected only 6 guys & I was one of them.
22] 13th December, 2010, St. Vincent Engg College, Nagpur, Uday
Gupta
From the day when I joined my college I had the dream to
start my carrier with a growing company where I could get an opportunity to
utilize my abilities & skills.
First the PPT i.e Pre Placement talk took place in that they told us about
there selection criteria, about Zensar and ofcourse the most important thing
the package they are offering us.
The selection procedure consists of 4 rounds
1) Written test
2) GD
3) Technical Interview
4) HR Interview
The written test comprised of three sections
1) English + Quantitative + Logical reasoning (30 questions)
2) Technical (C & C++) (20 questions)
3) SQL + DBMS (10 questions)
The test was very tough and maximum elimination is done in this round only. It
was online test and there was sectional timing i.e we need to finish the
section in the given time.
Amongst the above sections only english and quantitative
questions were easy others were tough. For general English consult (barren).
For quantitative aptitude consult (R.S. Aggarwal) and for technical (prepare
o/p questions)
Total of 300 students appeared approximatly and 160 cleared the written test
and shortlisted for the GD. I was one of them I'd given the test at 2:30
and the result were announced at 5 pm.
Group Discussion:
Later we were send to a room for GD. GD was conducted among the group of 15
candidates. We were first asked to decide a topic ourself. Later she(HR)
herself suggested a topic "Younger generation are more smarter than their
parents".
The topic was easy and most of the people spoke on it. HR
gave chance to each candidate who was not able to speak. Result declared after
45 mins I was in the list of those 11 people from our group. Actually my group
consist of top 15 scorer of aptitude. Hence they selected 11 out of 15 in GD.
This was the highest from any group from most of the
other group they selected 4-5 out of 15 in each group. So score good in
aptitude.
I was very happy because I was for the first time
gonna face technical interview. From 160 candidates they selected 75 for TI.
Technical Interview:
TI was on the next day ie 15th December at 9:00am. My TI started at 12:00 noon.
The interviewer was very decent but serious guy.
* Tell me about yourself
* Told.
* Explain about paper presentation you had given
* Explained (actually I'd won prize in PPT and told this in my intro)
* What is security (as my ppt topic was 'SECURITY IN Wi-Fi')
* What are the threats to security?
* What you will do to provide security?
* Which are the most important areas reqiring security?
* What you have prerared?
* I told C and SQL
* What is array
* How will you declare and initailize 2D and 3D array?
* Write a prog to print "HELLO WORLD" without using semicolon.
* Write a prog to swap two nos without using 3rd variable.
* Explain pointers? where it is used?
* How memory is initilised in ptr?
* He shown me 4-5 C- prog to tell output.
* Different between call-by-val and call-by-add?
* Write any one prog using both call-by-val and call-by-add.
* What is DBMS?
* What is SQL?
* He had different table and asked me to write 8-10 queries?
* Altough he asked quite tough queries which reqire comb of 4-5 tables. I
answered all as I had good prep of SQL.
* What is Normalization.
* What is 1NF,2NF,BCNF etc.
* I told him it was in 3rd yr and I cant recall it
now.
* Difference between multiprogramming and multitasking?
I gave answer of most of the questions and major thing was my confidence.
I never felt this is 1st interview of my life. If you dont know any answer
simply say you can't recall but don't cheat them, they are very smart.
This round last for around 40 -45 mins.
I came out of the room and volunteer told me in just a min that I got
passed the TI and, now came the time for the HR interview:
Out of 75 only 40 cleared TI.
HR Interview:
Normal Questions:
* Why Zensar?
* What are your strengths?
* Why should I select you?
* Two good and bad things about your college?
* If I give you one million rupees what will be the 1st thing you do?
* About family?
* Example where you worked in grp?
* What extra curricular you been part of?
My HR interview was excellent but still I was very eager to see the
result but result declared after 3 days.
Only 30 candidates was finally selected and I was one of them. Now
its the time for Party.
Finally I will say, if you are not selected don’t worry because
“after every sad day there comes the glad day”.
Before Zensar I appered for Persistent and Patni. But my destiny was somewhere
else and finally I found it.

August 2006 , Techno India College, Kolkata, Debabrata Biswas
MCA of Siliguri
Institute of Technology of 2007
I]
Aptitude Test of 80 minutes duration. It has four sections – English,
Quantitative, Verbal reasoning & Technical section which contained only C
& C++.
Number of
questions in each section ranged between 20-25.In all there was 86 questions in
my paper where as other sets had between 80 to 90. There was no negative
marking .There was no sectional cut-off but there were sectional time limits of
20 minutes each. U r only allowed moving on to the next section only when the
time of a section was up.
II]
Technical & HR interview. For some there were separate interviews others
had it one. There were two member panels.
APTITUDE
TEST:
In
the English section there were standard GRE type questions i.e. Synonyms
[“Words which mean closest to the following”], Antonyms which had words like
lucid,
Sumptuous,
censure etc. There were also analogy questions [“which of the following best
illustrates a relationship similar to the given relation”]. This part had
questions like carpenter: saw then what:?. There was also passage of about 200
word length on African & European arts which contained some tough
sentences. Each of the above types had 4-5 questions. Anyone who is acquainted
with GRE Baron’s will be able to do most of the questions.
Next
section was Quantitative. This was the easiest section. Most of the questions
were from RS Agarwal book. Anyone who has practiced that book can easily do
17-18 of 22 odd questions.
Then
there was easily the toughest section in reasoning. This is mainly bcoz the
questions were lengthy & it was difficult to do in 20 minutes. It had data
interpretation from bar charts, puzzle. It also had arrangement problem with
certain conditions given. It was like among P, Q, R & S, T, U only Q &
S can drive. They were going by a car in which people sat in two rows. No group
member sits beside member of same group. There were certain other conditions
given & situations based on which u had to find sitting arrangements. Then
there was a question on order of events - In a certain refresher course 6
subjects r taught. There were conditions given & u had to find order in
which the subjects were taught. RS Agarwal verbal reasoning book needs to be
practiced well for this section.
The
last section was Technical. It mainly had small but tricky pieces of code given
in C & C++ & u had to predict the output. This was mainly there to
check the logical concepts. Most of it u’ll find on books like
“test ur C skills” & “exploring C” by kanetkar.
The
cut-off marks were not announced. But as sectional cut-off was not there, the
feeling one got was that a score of around 50-55 [out of 86] will clinch it for
u. From 350+ aspirants from 8 colleges they selected 40 for the interview in
the next day. I was among those selected.
INTERVIEW:
On
the next day they gave a detailed PPT before the start of the interview
process. They also give u a form to fill up. U also need to bring 2 copies
of ur CV as they’ll take one copy of the CV along with the form. All
candidates were given call numbers. Those with odd call numbers faced one panel
& the evens faced the other panel. The duration of interviews ranged from
15 to as much as 45 minutes.
In
the interview Firstly I was asked about how my test was. Later I got to know
that many were asked this innocuous looking but potentially dangerous question
first up. I suggest however good ur test may be, be a little reserved
on this. Then they thoroughly grilled on C & C++. Questions on c ranged
from operators, to maximum size of arrays, linking of header files,
compilation, assembler, pre-processor, the file inclusion, whether one can
build a header file etc. in C++ they asked about OO concepts, encapsulation,
abstraction, virtual functions & how they work, polymorphism, inheritance.
In DBMS I was asked to name some commercial DBMS packages & whether MS
Access was one. Also what normalization was & how it was done. Also what
client server architecture was & to give a real life example of it. In DS I
was asked about what queue how it worked & whether one could have a LIFO
queue. Also what r single & double linked lists.
In
the HR Interview they first of all they told me that “I am giving u two minutes
to sell urself to us”. Thereafter they asked about me, my hobbies. They also
asked what other campus processes I had attended & what had happened in
them. Finally they asked whether I had any questions & I asked two
questions.
Finally
they announced the results half an hour after the process was over. They
selected 21 candidates. I was selected as was 5 others from my batch. We were
really happy for each other.
27] 3
MARCH,2008, NIBU
I want to
start with a quote that I always try to follow in my life that , “ If the
victory is certain then even a coward can win but the real brave are those who
dare to fight even if they know that there defeat is fixed “.
From the day when I joined my college I had the dream to start my carrier with a
growing company where I could get an opportunity to utilize my abilities &
skills .
This dream seems to be come true when Zensar technologies visited our campus ,
it was 3rd of March , 2008 , stage was well set , show was just to begin.
Four people
were came from Zensar for the recruitment and now it’s the time. For the PPT
i.e Pre Placement talk …in that they have told us about there selection
criteria , about Zensar and of course the most important thing the package they
are offering us .
They were very
strict about there eligibility criteria , and the eligibility criteria was all
though 60% , few of our friends are only 1 or 2 marks short of first division
in 10th standard but its really mysterious they don’t even allowed them to sit
just for the one odd mark .
There Selection
procedure is normal as other companies , we have to under go 3 stages :
1) Aptitude
Test
2) Technical
Interview
3) Hr
Interview
We all were
ready for the Aptitude Test and I was really feeling embrace for few of fine
friend who were very intelligent but couldn’t make it just because of the
eligibility criteria .
Aptitude Test begins : (there was no negative
marking but there is the sectional cut off of 50%)
The test was
divide in to 4 categories and each of them contains 20 question and 20 min. are
provided for each section , and we were forced to solve a section for 20
min. only and once the 20 mins are over then only we can jump to the next
section .
First section
was the English section , for me it is the toughest hurdle coz I had prepared
the articles ,prepositions ,tenses ,synonyms and antonyms but the pattern of
the test was totally different , there was a complete sentence in which a
fragment is underlined and we have to replace that fragment with the given
options , and it was a real hack when I tried out options one by one every one
is perfectly fine. I was really confused( dimag ki ghanti baj gai thi
yaar kuch bhi nahi samjh me aa raha tha , jitne experiments kar sakta tha kar
liye but kuch bhi nahi hua ab to lag raha tha ki bhagawan hi malik hai ) and
the next five question were like
Prem Chandra
was a _______ poet , he has written several ______ with his title and
still lots of them _______.
In these
question I shooted lots of arrows ( I hope some of them might hit the
target )
Next 5 question
were like Heat: temperature:: _______:_______ I m sure that I
haven’t answered more then 2 correctly .
And the last
five question were based on a passage ( I say to me that ,”yaar agar
English ki sectional cut off cross karma hai to kuch bhikar ke ye sare question
thik karne hi padenge” ) I read the passage twice and I m sure that I must have
answered all the question right .
Two mins were
still there , I tried to keep myself calm but I was really frustrated .
Next section
was Maths no problem for me at all ..I was quite frustrated
coz of mine English section that’s why I was even unable to remember the table
of 18 in one of question I have to find 18 * 9 nothing came in to mind at
that time every thing was like ??????? then I done 180-18 to calculate it again
was even unable to subtract I said oh god …what is happening today . Then
after a min I regained my senses and I have done 16 question 100% correct in
just 10 or 11 odd mins. Question were very simple like
1)A can do a work in 31 days and B can do the same work in 8 days ,A
alone started the work after few days he was joined by B , and the work
completed in 10 days . After how many days A is been joined by B.
2)In an election between 2 candidate one have got 53% votes and won by 1057
votes , how many votes were there ?
3)A spent 3589 Rs. In first four months and 5216 Rs. In next eight months , if
he saves 2368 Rs per month then what is his salary ?
4)A man sells a bike and a cow in 14000 Rs. , by selling his bike he loses 20%
and gained 20% in selling his cow , if the total profit was 200 Rs. Then what
was the cost price of cow?
5)Two no. are in 2:3 ratio if the three fifth of the first number is added to
two third of the second no then the new ratio will be ?
6)The cp a ltrs of milk is 12 rs , a milk man purchases 20lts of milk and wants
to earn 200Rs. in the transaction if he sells 20 ltrs of milk then how much
water will be the sp of a ltr milk….(too simple its not allegation)
And simple
problem on ages, allegation , time and distance etc.
Next Section
was reasoning is was avg. not too easy not too tough , an
average person can do almost 65% of the question and rest of the question were
quite tough ,question were like ,
A, B, C, D, and
E were 3 guys and 2 girls , each one have the b'day in Jan,
Feb,…may;
Each one of
them like sweets, ice cream….etc.
Note : verbal
as well as non verbal reasoning was there .( don’t worry it was easy )
Now It’s the
time for the Technical Section which was the last section of the paper
:
Most of the
question were based on the C output and rest of the question were from
networking , Computer Architecture , Operating System. Question were like:
1)which is the fastest : FTP ,TELNET ,TCP, etc.
2)output:
main(){
int x=20 ,y=35;
x= x++ + y++;
y = ++x + ++y;
printf(“%d %d”,x,y);
}
3)char *p[]=”rachit and devender”;
printf(“%C”,++(p[4]));
4)const char *p[]=”abhishek and Ankur”;
char k=’a’;
p[1]=k;
printf(“%s”,p);
5)main(){
extern int i;
i=5;
printf(“%d”,i);
}
6) main(){
int i,j=2;
if(i%j !=0)
j=5;
printf(“%d”,j);
}
For what
values if i the output will be 5 : options 1)when i is even 2) odd
3)prime 4) fro all
7)complexity of
merge sort .?
8)which sorting also will use to sort {1,2,3,4,5} ?
9)which cpu register holds the address of next instruction?
10)Main(){
Char *p[]=”pradeep mani”;
Printf(“%c%c%c%c”,p[i],i[p],(*p+1),*(p+1));
}
11) select * from dual ; output..??
12) we cant typedef (i) pointers (ii) function (iii) double (iv) I
and II both
above are some
of the question which are been asked in the 4th section of the Aptitude test.
Now they asked
us to wait for 30 mins, it was really a tough time our heart was beating at
full speed ..30 mins seems to be 30 years ,
Now the result
is been declared …
A person came
and said that only 5 people are selected every one of us were astonished ,we
were assuming that at least 15 people will crack this Aptitude but
that was really strange , but Mine name was there , but I really feel bad for
all those my friends who were unable to cross this barrier They have gave us a
form to fill up , it’s a general details entry form , they take our CVs and ask
us for reporting them with in 15 Mins.
It was really
tough hurdle coz Zensar mainly focuses on the technical round but I was well
prepared for this round coz I may not be totally perfect , but parts of me are
excellent .
Now the battle
of questions and answer started .
We were in our
college at 9:00 am and now it was around 2:30 pm I was the second person to go
for the technical round ,
They asked me
have to taken your lunch I said,” no , I don’t even had my break fast “, then
they ask me are you hungry I have some snacks with me I said , “ no thanks, I m
just hungry for the job “.
Then they
started bombarding questions,
1) what is pointer to a function ..
2) Explain the working of pointer to a function
3) Difference between char const *p , const char *p ,const * char p, const char
* const p
4) What Is FILE *fp
5) a program to print a file from the last .
6) Write a program to encrypt the file
7) What is
abstraction
8) What is run time polymorphism
9) What is register storage class? If a variable is declared as register
then is it compulsory that it will be of storage type register?
10) What is interface in java ?
11) What is implementation ?
12) Why java
doesn’t support multiple inheritance ?
13) Is c++ is pure object oriented?
14) Why we need new operator in java at the time of object declaration and why
not in c++?
15) Write a
program to implement virtual functions .
16) What is the difference between file and data base storage ?
17) Difference between hierarchical data model and network data model ?
18) What are the 12 codd’s rule ?
19) Gave me a table and asked me to normalize it up to 3 nf .

I was thinking
that ,”yaar kintne question poochenge ye log , voh poochte ja rahe the aur main
batataja raha tha “,there were lots of other question..
This round last
for around 50 -55 mins . and HR round was also attached to this because
we were only 5 people selected out there , now came the time for
the HR interview :
Normal
Questions:
1)Describe Yourself as a person ?(she said I don’t want u to repeat the resume
, something which in not mentioned in that)
2)Say something about dream ..i said ,”Dream as if you'll live forever, live as
if you'll die today.”
3)Which is your dream company ? I said that , “ I m telling u the truth , my
dream company is Google” , then she asked my why Google , I was well prepared
for that question I said , “ God is with them who have the courage to fly , not
with them who stand on the ground and watch the sky “ ,then wla wla wla….
4)Then why zensar ? “One of the greatest victories you can gain over someone is
to beat him at politeness “ , that’s what I have done at done time 5)Where do

6)Say something on ,” when you are in Rome do what Romans do
And that’s it , finally me and three friends of mine were selected in the
ZENSAR .
At last I want to say that ,
“Courage
doesn't always roar. Sometimes courage is the quiet voice at the end of the day
saying, "I will try again tomorrow.”
So if you are
not selected don’t worry coz “after every sad day there comes the glad
day”
See u in Zensar
.

28] ZENSAR PAPER ON 3RD MARCH, 2008
I want to start
with a quote that I always try to follow in my life that , “ If the victory is
certain then even a coward can win but the real brave are those who dare to
fight even if they know that there defeat is fixed “. From the day when I
joined my college I had the dream to start my carrier with a growing company
where I could get an opportunity to utilize my abilities & skills . This
dream seems to be come true when Zensar technologies visited our campus , it
was 3rd of March , 2008 , stage was well set , show was just to begin.
Four people were came from Zensar for the recruitment and now it’s the
time. For the PPT i.e Pre Placement talk …in that they have told us about there
selection criteria , about Zensar and of course the most important thing the
package they are offering us .
They were very strict about there eligibility criteria , and the
eligibility criteria was all though 60% , few of our friends are only 1 or 2 marks
short of first division in 10th standard but its really mysterious they don’t
even allowed them to sit just for the one odd mark .
There Selection procedure is normal as other companies , we have to
under go 3 stages :
1) Aptitude Test
2) Technical Interview
3) Hr Interview
We all were ready for the Aptitude Test and I was really feeling embrace
for few of fine friend who were very intelligent but couldn’t make it just
because of the eligibility criteria .
Aptitude Test begins : (there was no negative marking but there is the
sectional cut off of 50%)
The test was divide in to 4 categories and each of them contains 20
question and 20 min. are provided for each section , and we were forced to
solve a section for 20 min. only and once the 20 mins are over then only we can
jump to the next section .
First section was the English section , for me it is the toughest hurdle
coz I had prepared the articles ,prepositions ,tenses ,synonyms and antonyms
but the pattern of the test was totally different , there was a complete
sentence in which a fragment is underlined and we have to replace that fragment
with the given options , and it was a real hack when I tried out options one by
one every one is perfectly fine. I was really confused( dimag ki ghanti baj gai
thi yaar kuch bhi nahi samjh me aa raha tha , jitne experiments kar sakta tha
kar liye but kuch bhi nahi hua ab to lag raha tha ki bhagawan hi malik hai )
and the next five question were like
Prem Chandra was a _______ poet , he has written several ______ with his
title and still lots of them _______.
In these question I shooted lots of arrows ( I hope some of them might
hit the target )
Next 5 question were like Heat: temperature:: _______:_______ I m sure
that I haven’t answered more then 2 correctly .
And the last five question were based on a passage ( I say to me that
,”yaar agar English ki sectional cut off cross karma hai to kuch bhikar ke ye
sare question thik karne hi padenge” ) I read the passage twice and I m sure
that I must have answered all the question right .
Two mins were still there , I tried to keep myself calm but I was really
frustrated .
Next section was Maths no problem for me at all ..I was quite frustrated
coz of mine English section that’s why I was even unable to remember the table
of 18 in one of question I have to find 18 * 9 nothing came in to mind at that
time every thing was like ??????? then I done 180-18 to calculate it again was
even unable to subtract I said oh god …what is happening today . Then after a
min I regained my senses and I have done 16 question 100% correct in just 10 or
11 odd mins. Question were very simple like
1) A can do a work in 31 days and B can do the same work in 8 days ,A
alone started the work after few days he was joined by B , and the work
completed in 10 days . After how many days A is been joined by B.
2) In an election between 2 candidate one have got 53% votes and won by
1057 votes , how many votes were there ?
3) A spent 3589 Rs. In first four months and 5216 Rs. In next eight
months , if he saves 2368 Rs per month then what is his salary ?
4) A man sells a bike and a cow in 14000 Rs. , by selling his bike he
loses 20% and gained 20% in selling his cow , if the total profit was 200 Rs.
Then what was the cost price of cow?
5) Two no. are in 2:3 ratio if the three fifth of the first number is
added to two third of the second no then the new ratio will be ?
6) The cp a ltrs of milk is 12 rs , a milk man purchases 20lts of milk
and wants to earn 200Rs. in the transaction if he sells 20 ltrs of milk then
how much water will be the sp of a ltr milk….(too simple its not
allegation)
And simple problem on ages, allegation , time and distance etc.
Next Section
was reasoning is was avg. not too easy not too tough , an average person can do
almost 65% of the question and rest of the question were quite tough ,question
were like ,
A, B, C, D, and E were 3 guys and 2 girls , each one have the b'day in
Jan, Feb,…may;
Each one of them like sweets, ice cream….etc.
Note : verbal as well as non verbal reasoning was there .( don’t worry
it was easy )
Now It’s the time for the Technical Section which was the last section
of the paper :
Most of the question were based on the C output and rest of the question
were from networking , Computer Architecture , Operating System. Question were
like:
1)which is the fastest : FTP ,TELNET ,TCP, etc.
2)output:
main(){
int x=20 ,y=35;
x= x++ + y++;
y = ++x + ++y;
printf(“%d %d”,x,y);
}
3)char *p[]=”rachit and devender”;
printf(“%C”,++(p[4]));
4)const char *p[]=”abhishek and Ankur”;
char k=’a’;
p[1]=k;
printf(“%s”,p);
5)main(){
extern int i;
i=5;
printf(“%d”,i);
}
6) main(){
int
i,j=2;
if(i%j !=0)
j=5;
printf(“%d”,j);
}
For what values if i the output will be 5 : options 1)when i is even 2)
odd 3)prime 4) fro all
7)complexity of merge sort .?
8)which sorting also will use to sort {1,2,3,4,5} ?
9)which cpu register holds the address of next instruction?
10)Main(){
Char *p[]=”pradeep mani”;
Printf(“%c%c%c%c”,p[i],i[p],(*p+1),*(p+1));
}
11) select * from dual ; output..??
12) we cant typedef (i) pointers (ii) function (iii) double (iv) I and
II both
above are some of the question which are been asked in the 4th section
of the Aptitude test
Now they asked us to wait for 30 mins, it was really a tough time our
heart was beating at full speed ..30 mins seems to be 30 years ,
Now the result is been declared …
A person came and said that only 5 people are selected every one of us
were astonished ,we were assuming that at least 15 people will crack this
Aptitude but that was really strange , but Mine name was there , but I really
feel bad for all those my friends who were unable to cross this barrier They
have gave us a form to fill up , it’s a general details entry form , they take
our CVs and ask us for reporting them with in 15 Mins.
It was really tough hurdle coz Zensar mainly focuses on the technical
round but I was well prepared for this round coz I may not be totally perfect ,
but parts of me are excellent .
Now the battle of questions and answer started .
We were in our college at 9:00 am and now it was around 2:30 pm I was
the second person to go for the technical round ,
They asked me have to taken your lunch I said,” no , I don’t even had my
break fast “, then they ask me are you hungry I have some snacks with me I said
, “ no thanks, I m just hungry for the job “.
Then they started bombarding questions,
1)what is pointer to a function ..
2)Explain the working of pointer to a function
3)Difference between char const *p , const char *p ,const * char p,
const char * const p
4)What Is FILE *fp

12)Why java doesn’t support multiple inheritance ?
13)Is c++ is pure object oriented?
14)Why we need new operator in java at the time of object declaration
and why not in c++?
15)Write a program to implement virtual functions .
16)What is the difference between file and data base storage ?
17)Difference between hierarchical data model and network data model

I was thinking that ,”yaar kintne question poochenge ye log , voh
poochte ja rahe the aur main batataja raha tha “,there were lots of other
question..
This round last for around 50 -55 mins . and HR round was also attached
to this because we were only 5 people selected out there , now came the time
for the HR interview :
Normal
Questions:
1)Describe Yourself as a person ?(she said I don’t want u to repeat the
resume , something which in not mentioned in that)
2)Say something about dream ..i said ,”Dream as if you'll live forever,
live as if you'll die today.”
3)Which is your dream company ? I said that , “ I m telling u the truth
, my dream company is Google” , then she asked my why Google , I was well
prepared for that question I said , “ God is with them who have the courage to
fly , not with them who stand on the ground and watch the sky “ ,then wla wla
wla….
4)Then why zensar ? “One of the greatest victories you can gain over
someone is to beat him at politeness “ , that’s what I have done at done time
5)Where do you see yourself after 5 years ?
6)Say something on ,” when you are in Rome do what Romans do
And that’s it , finally me and three friends of mine were selected in
the ZENSAR .
At last I want to say that ,
“Courage doesn't always roar. Sometimes courage is the quiet voice at
the end of the day saying, "I will try again tomorrow.”
So if you are not selected don’t worry coz “after every sad day there
comes the glad day”

30] 8th AUGUST 2006
AT TECHNO INDIA COLLEGE, KOLKATA
Hi
Everyone,
I am Debabrata Biswas, a student of MCA of Siliguri Institute of
Technology of 2007 pass-out batch. Zensar Technologies came for campus
selection process for MCA’s only at the Techno India College on August 8 &
9, 2006. Their recruitment process has the following stages:
I] Aptitude Test of 80 minutes duration. It has four sections – English,
Quantitative, Verbal reasoning & Technical section which contained only C
& C++.
Number of questions in each section ranged between 20-25.In all there
was 86 questions in my paper where as other sets had between 80 to 90. There
was no negative marking .There was no sectional cut-off but there were
sectional time limits of 20 minutes each. U r only allowed moving on to the
next section only when the time of a section was up.
II] Technical & HR interview. For some there were separate
interviews others had it one. There were two member panels.
APTITUDE TEST:
In the English section there were standard GRE type questions i.e.
Synonyms [“Words which mean closest to the following”], Antonyms which had
words like lucid,
Sumptuous, censure etc. There were also analogy questions [“which of the
following best illustrates a relationship similar to the given relation”]. This
part had questions like carpenter: saw then what:?. There was also passage of
about 200 word length on African & European arts which contained some tough
sentences. Each of the above types had 4-5 questions. Anyone who is acquainted with
GRE Baron’s will be able to do most of the questions.
Next section was Quantitative. This was the easiest section. Most of the
questions were from RS Agarwal book. Anyone who has practiced that book can
easily do 17-18 of 22 odd questions.
Then there was easily the toughest section in reasoning. This is mainly
bcoz the questions were lengthy & it was difficult to do in 20 minutes. It
had data interpretation from bar charts, puzzle. It also had arrangement
problem with certain conditions given. It was like among P, Q, R & S, T, U
only Q & S can drive. They were going by a car in which people sat in two
rows. No group member sits beside member of same group. There were certain
other conditions given & situations based on which u had to find sitting arrangements.
Then there was a question on order of events - In a certain refresher course 6
subjects r taught. There were conditions given & u had to find order in
which the subjects were taught. RS Agarwal verbal reasoning book needs to be
practiced well for this section.
The last section was Technical. It mainly had small but tricky pieces of
code given in C & C++ & u had to predict the output. This was mainly
there to check the logical concepts. Most of it u’ll find on books like “test
ur C skills” & “exploring C” by kanetkar.
The cut-off marks were not announced. But as sectional cut-off was not
there, the feeling one got was that a score of around 50-55 [out of 86] will
clinch it for u. From 350+ aspirants from 8 colleges they selected 40 for the
interview in the next day. I was among those selected.
INTERVIEW:
On the next day
they gave a detailed PPT before the start of the interview process. They also
give u a form to fill up. U also need to bring 2 copies of ur CV as they’ll
take one copy of the CV along with the form. All candidates were given call
numbers. Those with odd call numbers faced one panel & the evens faced the
other panel. The duration of interviews ranged from 15 to as much as 45
minutes.
In the interview Firstly I was asked about how my test was. Later I got
to know that many were asked this innocuous looking but potentially dangerous
question first up. I suggest however good ur test may be, be a little reserved
on this. Then they thoroughly grilled on C & C++. Questions on c ranged
from operators, to maximum size of arrays, linking of header files,
compilation, assembler, pre-processor, the file inclusion, whether one can
build a header file etc. in C++ they asked about OO concepts, encapsulation,
abstraction, virtual functions & how they work, polymorphism, inheritance.
In DBMS I was asked to name some commercial DBMS packages & whether MS
Access was one. Also what normalization was & how it was done. Also what
client server architecture was & to give a real life example of it. In DS I
was asked about what queue how it worked & whether one could have a LIFO
queue. Also what r single & double linked lists.
In the HR Interview they first of all they told me that “I am giving u
two minutes to sell urself to us”. Thereafter they asked about me, my hobbies.
They also asked what other campus processes I had attended & what had
happened in them. Finally they asked whether I had any questions & I asked
two questions.
Finally they announced the results half an hour after the process was over.
They selected 21 candidates. I was selected as was 5 others from my batch. We
were really happy for each other.
