IBM PAPER ON 24th APRIL AT KOLKATA
Hello friends, IBM came to our college on last 24th April,2007 and 207 students sat for the test. Finally 66 got selected. & I am one of them.
There were 3 rounds : Aptitude test, GD, interview . (Pls keep your college ID card with u, else they won’t let u sit for the test.)
APTITUDE TEST :
55 ques, 60 min time, followed by 15 mins for essay writing. R.S. Agarwal is more than enough. But if u r confident & have practiced enough of apti from any standard book, that will certainly do (I did from TIME materials for placement). But direction test, data sufficiency, venn diagram etc were common from R.S. Agarwal. AT LEAST GET
FAMILIAR WITH THE TYPES OF QUES AS TIME MANAGEMENT IS THE KEY
TO SUCCESS IN THIS SECTION.
Section 1- Verbal part
She performed _ the opera house.(in/at/on etc)
Another qs on preposition-easy.
Synonym-apathetic
_ clown of that circus became famous for his antics.(article)
Article again-easy.
Then a RC on some plants, pollen grains etc. Do it at last if u get time.
Section 2 –

Well guys I don’t remember the problems, but it was very easy. Just stay cool and keep pace with time.
Data sufficiency- about 5 qs
Venn diagram- easy, 5 qs. Problem was like- of 600 people,576 use credit cards
(VISA,AMEX etc).
Direction sense- 2 or 3 easy qs
Some more qs were there. Follow any standard book & u can definitely do them.
Section 3 – Attention to details
Eg: CBCBCCBBC CBCBCCBBC CBCBCCBBC –find who are alike or not.
4 or 5 qs like above.
Then 4 or 5 qs like- if * represents +,- rep. * etc, find value of 12* 5-7….etc
Section 4 – Technical
Qs from UNIX, DBMS etc.
Eg: which normal form is only and completely key dependent? Which command to use for seeing detail of a command in UNIX (man,info,display,help).
Essay topic- MONEY BRINGS IRRESPONSIBILITY
Be fast but stay calm. Apti is the easiest round- trust me. 129 cleared it.
GROUP DISCUSSION :
13 candidates in a group, 15 mins time, followed by 30 sec for summing up the GD for each candidate. Our topic was- “HONESTY IS THE BEST POLICY”. Everyone, even who sat silent was specifically asked to speak. But it is better that u speak spontaneously.
The round carries lot of marks.
94 cleared the round. (Usually GD isn’t elimination round but since too many had cleared apti, they eliminated some in GD in order to shorten the i/w round.)
INTERVIEW :
I won’t go into detail of it. A panel of two was there, extremely polite, approachable and friendly.
In technical, they asked about-
C(call by value & ref. etc)
UNIX,OS (shell, kernel etc)
JAVA (exception handling, features of OOP)
DS (linked list)
NETWORKING (http, port etc)
& some more qs on diff subjects. I answered well & confidently, tried to keep a smile on my face to make myself look confident and well-prepared.
Then there were some HR qs like about myself, my results, a prize which I won for writing on cloning, why IBM, what’s the difference b/w IT & CSE and like that.
( JUST GO THROUGH THEIR WEBSITE & prepare standard qs like why IBM etc.)
They looked satisfied with what I answered. Then it was over & we shook hands.
I was pretty confident about my selection & finally made it.

IBM PAPER ON 24th APRIL AT KOLKATA
Hi guys and girls,
I appeared for the IBM recruitment test on 24th april, 2007 in our campus. Luckily, I got through.
Remember u need to have ur college ID cards or else they might not allow u to sit for the exam. Now there were 3 rounds of qualifying exams...
First round is the aptitude test.(55 marks total, cutoff 30 for boys)
So boys u have to be really good at what u do & girls u all can be almost be rest assured if u clear the aptitude test u will get through.
For aptitude test remember the first and most important thing is TIME MANAGEMENT.
Many good students don,t make it through the aptitude because they lack this skill.
Practice R.S.Aggarwal, it ,s more than enough for the aptitude.
It has 4 sections in its paper: (1 hr test)
(i) verbal (10 mins)
This will consist of filling up prepositions in the blanks. e.g. 1. he had been singing for a very long time, but until now he has never been seen
____ the opera house options: (a)at (b)in (c)on (d)none
2. the sea food did not agree ____ him. options: (a)with (b)on (c)for (d)in
There will be atleast 2 of these questions.
Then there would be few other ,fill in the blanks,.
Then there is a comprehension. Our passage was from "Origin of Species".
It was fairly easy, but don,t read the passage first, read the questions first and then find the answers from the passage.
They are mostly in sequential order from passage paragraphs.
This part is easy, u will get through if u have basic knowlege and skills of english.

(ii) Quantitative (25 questions, 30 mins)
This part is fairly easy.
First question was on venn diagrams (credit card holder problem).
Its a bit lengthy but if u can manage it u get 4-5 questions right straight away. then there are questions on direction, 4-5 questions on data sufficiency, 4-5 ques on replacing 0 and 1 by * & #, age problems etc
They r quite easy just remember the clock is ticking.
(iii) Attention to details (10 mins)
This section be careful...this section is very easy but be attentive to details, I would suggest do this right after the verbal.
There will be 2-3 questions on similarity like
234222272451 23422272451 234222272451 find any dissimilarity. then there will problem on relation- father, son like that then replacing + by *, - by + and so on... last question will be on case study. they had given us a criteria list for admmission and few biodatas for considering whether their applications will be accepted.
(iv) Technical (10 mins) this portion will contain checking output, choosing correct answer etc.
It will be based on DBMS, C, unics commands and may few other topics...
Essay writing:
They will provide 15 mins after aptitude test for writing this passage. About 300 words.
Now don,t think thats enough time, u hardly get any, trust me. Start writing the moment u get the signal, but don,t beat around the bush, be clear in expressing ur ideas and their justifications. Ur aptitude marks most probably don,t include essay marks. But they do pay importance to this.
128 were selected from 200-220 after aptitude test.
Next is the GD round, now we were never prepared for GD as we thought there won,t be any GD, but surprisingly we had and 94 were selected out of 128.
There were 12 in a group, and all the girls would be selected here, so boys u all have to open the zip of ur mouths and talk. Don,t sit Dumb. U lose points for that. Don,t wait for too long for others to finish.
They check ur communication skills and ur ideas. Just remember u have to talk.
If u get through this u will face Tech+hr interview and mostly they will be conducted by the People who conducted ur GD.
Now, this is totally a matter of luck, in which panel u get...
If they ask u technical questions they are generally Not plain easy, so u have to be well prepared in technical, which I was not.
As I had already got a job offer from Cognizant, I wasn,t looking forward to any job in

IBM. So I hadn,t taken any preparation at all.
But U guys don,t do this, my interview was mainly on HR so it was easy, though they tried to crack me with stress questions, but they couldn,t.
There were 2 men in my panel,
It was as follows: me: good afternoon, sir. sir: good afternoon take ur seat. me: thank u, sir. sir: i didn,t get time to read ur essay, tell me about it in brief. me: explained (they were satisfied) sir: tell us something about urself me: told (stress on ur extracurricular activities if u have good ones, now I was in news reading and also some simple research work) sir: u said u did researchwork, would like to do research in IBM? me: right now I would like join, learn and grow with the industry and in future I might think about switching to that. BLAH BLAH sir: have u got any other job offer? me: yes sir, from cognizant. sir: why do u want to join IBM, cognizant is the fatest growing company now? me: explained(<
Trust me always go through the press releases or news of the company u r sitting for, because if u talk about those they really get impressed,
Just visit The Company,s Home Site, U can get all details there>>) sir: Ok, what is ur favourite subject? me: Principles of programming language sir: tell me diff b/w structure in C and C++? me: told sir: tell me a func where u don,t have to define a body? me: pure virtual func sir: explain that. me: (that was the only thing I couldn,t recall) sir: anyway, tell me about header files me: BLAH BLAH
< > sir: Ok, lets say I give u a job Not challenging, a job that class 12 boy can do, would u do it? me: well a job is only as challenging as u make it, and i think there ,s no harm in starting with a class 12 job, I can surely work my way up. sir: tell me a phase of ur life where u went through a big change. me: from my school to college..BLAH BLAH sir: are u mobile? me: absolutely sir: ok, lets say I send u to jungle rural place and tell u set up an IT workshop, what will the 3 most important challenges u will be facing?

me:<>
(i) requirement analysis: planning, gathering info on what is necessary to get the job done, framework etc
(ii) man power= local technically ignorant people + technically experienced people -->
Managing them Together
(iii) handling unexpected events that r bound to occur in any large scale job
They were totally impressed with this answer. sir: u have any question for me? me: sir can u tell me about the training program in ur company? sir: BLAH BLAH, any more questions? me: yes sir, can u tell me more about 10 yr pact made b/w IBM and Idea cellular and
Aditya birla? sir: BLAH BLAH, anymore? me: no sir. sir: thank u me: thank u
Results came after an exhaustive wait till 8:30 pm. 66 were selected from 94.(Final
Selection 66 from 200-220) Luckily my name was there.
Only thing u got to remember is that be confident at all times during ur interview, even if u have said something wrong or couldn,t answer something don,t lose ur confidence... atleast don,t show that in ur attitude. Keep ur head cool, body language calm and be confident and if u have good communication skills u will get through. The interviewers are always friendly and smiling so u be the same way.

IBM PAPER ON 11th APRIL
Hello friends,
My name is Ajitesh Pathak, a 3rd year student of NIT Durgapur studying in the branch of Information Technology. Like many before, I used to browse this website for company papers and experiences of those who got placed and believe me it feels great while writing as one. On 11th April, IBM India had visited our campus and 72 got selected out of 340 aspirants. Thank God, I was one of them.
Here are the details of the selection procedure.
There were 4 rounds…
1 . Written
2 . Essay round
3 . GD
4 . Tech + HR Interview
340 sat for the interview and 166 got selected. The cut off for every department was variable but for the ECE, CSE and IT ppl it was very high. There were 55 ques and 47 was the cut-off. Yes, believe me, tht’s the fact. 47 was the cutoff and for Non-IT depts.
Like mechanical, EE, Meta, Chem.. the cut off ranged from 35 to 40. Let me brief you about the written test.
There were 4 sections…
1st Verbal Section: 10 question s
2 ques on filling appropriate words..like
[1] The money was shared ______ the two.
(a) Among (b) Between (c) a & b (d) None
[2] _______ preparing for the exams, she had also prepared a presentation.
(a) Beside (b) Besides (c) a & b (d) None
1 ques on a synonym based sentence
[3] The phone number was incorporated into the directory.
(a) Exclude (b) Include (c) Condemned (d) None
Then the next 2 were on articles, very easy ones.

Then there was a RC… on embedded systems. Basically, read the 1st para, answer the 1st ques… the ques were set according to the paras… very easy, try to do it in the end. Do the ones you are comfortable with.
2nd Aptitude Section: 25 questions
Believe me this was a good section. There were easy ques but you had to be patient and not excited. Try to keep your adrenaline flow under control….
Q on Venn Diagram…
There are 32 tables in a room. 9 tables have salt bottles on them. 1 table has salt and pepper only, 1 table has salt and sugar only and 1 table has pepper and sugar only.
3 tables have all of them. The difference between the tables containing pepper and sugar is 2. Find the following..
[1] No. of tables containing sugar. [Ans: 17]
[2] No. of tables containing sugar only. [Ans: 12]
[3] No. of tables containing pepper. [Ans: 15]
[4] No. of tables containing pepper only [Ans: 10]
[5] No. of tables containing salt only. [Ans: 4]
Then there were few symbol based ques.. Like if + is /, / is -, - is * and * is + then evaluate.. there were 4 expressions..
There was a q on odd one out… there were 4 expressions and 3 of them evaluated to 36, the answer was the one which didn’t evaluate to 36.
These comprised of ques [6],[7],[8],[9], [10]…
The next 5 were data sufficiency ones. Very easy… CAT aspirants would sail through this portion.. Very easy ones…
The next five were general questions on aptitude…like
[16] If 5 cakes takes 1 hr 30 mins to bake in an oven when kept together, then how much will it take 10 cakes to bake in an oven when kept together. [ Ans: Same time ]
[17] P and Q can write 135 pages in 27 hrs. P can write 3 pages in 1 hour. How much time will it take Q to write 42 pages. [ Ans: 21]
[18] A beats B in a 100 race by 10m . B beats C in the same race by 10m. Then by how much does A beat C in the same race. [Ans: 20m]
[19] A class took an exam and each scored either 80 or 100 marks. If 10 students gave the exam and 100 was the max score one could get, then find out how many got 100 marks if the average of the class was 94. [Ans : 7]
The last one I don’t exactly remember but that was very easy. Anyone could do it.
The next, the final 5 of this section was a concentrative portion.
If $ represents 1 and * represents 0, then find the following in this code…
There were 5 expressions. One had to find the value of each of the expression and then convert it to binary form and then encode it according to the 1st line. This was a little cautious portion, but keep your cool and don’t make a mistake in finding the binary.
One thing, normally IBM gives q’s on cubes but there were none in our paper. So future aspirants should be knowing how to do the sums of cubes. Just think upon it with a

group of frnds and then it wil be fine. Also know the octal, hexadecimal systems and how to find the equivalents of numbers with decimals, like 0.4375
3rd Attention to Detail Section: 10 ques
This was the easiest section. Some patterns were given and you had tell wich patterns were same according to the options. So be calm and keep your eyes open. There were some symbol based questions also. There were 5 questions which were based on a small passage.
It was a passage about a club with some membership criteria to be fulfilled. Don’t read it.
Start with the questions and relate the options with a criteria because it was a section named Attention to Detail not Reading Comprehension. So work with the options. This is where maximum students lost the time when they started reading the criteria. Play with the options.
4th Technical Section: 10 ques
This was a tough section especially for the Non IT branches.
4 ques on C/C++, 3 on DBMS, 3 on Unix.
Just brush up your C concepts ans do some intelligent guess work. But the crux lies that you are expected to have all the 1st 3 sections right if want to guarantee a place.
When I went to the Interview Room, the interviewer told me that I only made 3 mistakes in the Technical Section, the rest all were right… ie, my score was 52 out of 55… So try to have a very high score in written.
Before the Interview there was the Essay round of 15 mins and GD.
Essay was a general topic… Primary Education is more important than Higher Studies…
There was a GD round and the GD round carried a lot of marks. There were no eliminations after the GD round but it carried a lot of marks in the final score.
When I entered the interview room, it appeared that I was already selected before it. I had a 5 mins interview session. All was HR, they were asking as if it was a formality. They told me about my written test which I mentioned earlier and also my GD and essay, which was very gud as they said. They didn’t see my file neither my CV. They asked me general ques about family background, place of birth, and about extra-currics. Try to mention things which will shift the interview towards your way. Like they asked me whether I had written any complex programs in C or C++. I said that yes I had written few like the 15 puzzle program, Tic-Tac-Toe, Spiral and I purposely mentioned that I didn’t use any A.I. or some high concept but applied my basic knowledge about C like arrays, pointers… From here he asked me what is an array and a vector, Diff between
Call by value and Call by reference, diff. between return() and exit() .. that’t it…
Then they commented on my high C.G.P.A. and asked me my standing in the department. Time was smoothly moving and all my answers were spontaneous. Finally they asked me why a manhole is round. I answered it almost. They shook my hand with

an assured face tht I was selected and said: It was very nice meeting you, Ajitesh. The interview was over even before I could realize.
The results were out after 2 hours and 72 were selected…. My name was announced and everything went happily thereafter.
Other panels also asked many on IBM info…
CEO and Chairman ::: Samuel J. Palmisano Headquarters ::: Newyork (Main)
IBM India President::: Shankar Annaswamy Bangalore(India)
IBM India VC ::: Rajesh Nambiar and Amitava Ray..
Visit the IBM site for further details… and one for those who have spectacles…
I have one but I wasn’t asked this one. Other panels had asked what kind of lens does the specs have and draw the ray diagram showing the defect and the effect after the lens. So be confident and try to score high in written, essay and GD… interview will shorten automatically… Ppl with higher C.G.P.A. have great chance in IBM…

Appeared for Written: almost 170
Cleared written: 68

Initially they informed us that they are going to conduct GD but at last they haven’t but remember guys they have just started the GD tradition in on campus interview processes.
1. Written test (Meritrac): 55 qs to be answered within one Hour & an essay to be written within 10 mins. (in our group essay topic was “chances of
India in winning world cup”)
For aptitude test, paper was easy but time consuming if u r not fast, there also exist overall cutoff (in our case it was 30+) & sectional cutoffs for only CSE, IT, MCA ,
MTECH students so consistency in each section is required.

For quantitative aptitude & analytical ability I will suggest to solve RS AGGARWAL

Sorry guys I cant provide u the details of written paper as I was then busy in solving them.
2. Interview: (my interview was mainly HR basis & it was at least 30 min long)
Before announcing results the told us to gather in a room. One of them failed to find the room so I asked him “can I help u sir? He queried I answered then he asked my name after asking whether I am a candidate or not? & said I cleared the written!”. As I have scored too well in written (here I utilized my time management) so I was the first one who went to face technical + HR interview just after the fillup of forms so I didn’t get any time to prepare myself mentally & even to make myself fresh!
Me: may I come in?
Ibm: yes (actually it was a 3 member panel- mr arijit, mr indrajeet, ms dola- she was also a pass out senior of our college)
Me: good afternoon sir, good afternoon mam. (I am still in doubt whether I have greeted them by saying good afternoon or good morning! )
Ibm: please be sitted. Thank u. they carefully observed my CV & other documents & ask to tell me somethibg abt myself.
Me: answered just like a river
Ibm: anjan u hav told that ur aim is get a challenging job & adding value in IBM. Please clarify?
Me: answered (think they were satisfied)
Ibm: but every job isn’t challenging?
Me: I will make it challenging. (With full confi )

Ibm: what kind of difficulties u have faced while organizing college fest?
Me: answered
Now the madam started.
Ibm: u have told datastructure abt ur fav subject. Can I ask some qs from it.
Me: yes why not.
Ibm: what is datastructure, examples , diff bet Stack & Queue explain it. Represent stack by linked list, write the insertion routine by dynamic allocation technique.
Me: answered confidently & correctly
Ibm: whats abt C?
Me: I informed her that this is my fav subject but as C is a prog lang that’s why I have mentioned datastructure.
Ibm: why we use main? Why not multiple mains? If main is not declared what will happen?
Me: compiler will raise an error message.
Ibm: what kind of error message?
Me: I don’t know exactly but I think it will say main function not defined/found.

Again HR continued
Ibm: initially u will be trained in kolkata then Chennai. Any problem
Me: no sir I am relocatable any where in the globe.
Ibm: suppose clients are demanding a work in 24 hrs but it require 48 hrs ur approach as team leader?
Me: just conveyed for “customer satisfaction” I have to make it (initially strategy, tem building & pulling out best from them)
Ibm: as u have completed ur portion but ur peers are facing same problem.do u go for amusements? NO so what will u do?
Me: as I am also bearing the risk of IBM so I will stay to assist my collegues & for this reason I can sacrifice. (I was 100 % confident that my answer really satisfied them)
Ibm: u told that ur hobbies are listening to music & singing. What kind of music u like to listen. What are the diff types of music explain when u listen them. If I give u an option to choose a particular type which one will u choose & why?
Me: answered.
Ibm: anjan would u like to sing some lines for us?
Me: I said why not. Sir do i have the permission to sing any hindi song & sang “koi hero ehaan koi zero ehaan koi bhi star hai koi bekar hai….(pkir bhi dil hai hindustani)”
Ibm: all of them smiled (for the first time I saw them to smile with me) & said its really very nice to meet u.
Me: I smiled & greeted all of them & said “hope we will meet soon”(for this god damn line that I had spoken there I was tensed till the result haven’t arrived)
Ibm: yes definitely we will disclose the result after 8 pm.
That’s all Guys.lastly they offered us their T shirts IBM persons are really friendly u cant imagine their politeness & their behavior. IBM seeks students who have DEDICATION,

IBM PAPER ON 23rd FEBRUARY

Hi every body, I got selected in IBM on 23rd.
I want to share my experiences with you. During the aptitude exam we had very less time. So time management is an imp factor. The apti consisted of 4 sections. The 1st was
English reading & Comprehension ability test. There were prepositions which were quite dicey and articles. Then there was a comprehension passage on 2D & 3D CAD design.
The second part consisted of numerical & logical ability in which there were questions on number, time ranking test from RS Agarwal, set theory, Binary, Blood relations and few problems which were very easy. 3rd part was attention ability test. Questions were from decision making, mathematical operations i.e. if + stands for *, / for - etc. Fourth part was on Computer fundamentals. Those who are from IT/CSE have an added advantage here, but as I’m from ECE I had a bit of problem. I played a bit of tic tac toe here as there was no negative marking. Guess I was a bit lucky here. It might sound easy but remember we were running short of time and cut off per section was very high about 50-60%.
Interview Questions:
1.
Where is your résumé? Sir invigilator stapled it with my ans sheet.
2.
Introduce yourself.
3.
Why do you want to switch to S/W industry? More opportunities.
4.
Write a program in C to sort a list of numbers in descending order.
5.
What is static & dynamic logic?
6.
Differentiate b/w analog & digital communication.
7.
What’s Bi-CMOS?
8.
Why do you think we should recruit you?
9.
Which is the last book that you have read?
10.
Tell me something about the book?
11.
Which is your preferred location?
12.
Are you ready to relocate?
13.
Do you have any questions for us?

IBM TEST Held on 23 rd September 2006 at SKIT, Jaipur.
IBM paper consists of 3 main stages.
STAGE 1
APTITUDE(55 questions in 1hr) no negative marking
The aptitude consists of 4 sections.
Section A-English(10 questions):
The 10 questions were divided into two main parts. First five questions were fill in the blanks they were very simple we had to fill them using a/an/the etc. They were all very simple any one can do them. The other five questions were based on a passage, the first three questions were simple you can solve them just by going through the passage once.
The other two questions required a bit of analysis that is you interpret the passage and then answer that question. It was also simple. Do not spend more than 10 minutes in this part. You will not get lots of extra time.
Section B-Quantitative(25 questions) Section C-Reasoning(10 questions)
I am giving the two sections together as I don`t remember which question belonged to which section. In this section you need to know the basic mathematics, just brush up all the basic concepts, I had just done r.s. agarwal(both quantitative and reasoning). The questions were based on boat problems, ages, average of whole class is this……..then find the age of the teacher…., speed and distance, trains, one question on venn diagram, blood relations(a man who had no brother and sisters said looking at a photograph “ the person in the photograph is the son of my fathers son” ans: he was his own son. A question on profit and loss, and cubes questions are an important part of this section.
The reasoning questions were very simple. Three main types of questions were:
1. if * is replaced by+, /is replaced by -,- is replaced by * and +is replaced by/ than find 56*36/96-12+3 like. This is very simple just replace as said and then apply the BODMAS rule. There were 3-4 questions on this. You cannot afford to loose these questions.

2. some strings were given you just had to compare them and tell whether they match or not, very simple can be done by any person just be careful. Eg: a) 6677119432 b)
6677119422 c) 6677119432
3. In a binary system 1 is written as $ and 0 is written as *. How will you write 32 in the from of $ and * Clearly this was the problem of binary conversions. You just needed to put $ and * in place of 1s n 0s after converting the decimal number into binary. Learn to convert numbers like 89 and 89.99 into binary. This will do the work. There were about five questions on this and should be solved. Try spending about 10 minutes in the reasoning section.
Section D-Technical(10 questions)
This section I found a bit tough there were two c programs couldn`t get them at all.
One of them was
%c%void main()
%c%{%c%---------------------
---------------
%c%}%c% main()
{
} there were the two mains in this I don`t know what they meant.
The other questions were on DBMS(cardinality), unix(chmod,kernel), sql(find out the mistake in the given query), some basic questions on C and also computer networks.
2 nd Stage(Technical Interview):
The result was declared of the aptitude round in about 2 hrs. about 200 students were selected and the selected students had to go for the presentation and just after that the interviews were to start. Be careful to listen in the presentation because they can refer to it in the interview and through this you can get to know about the company, collect points from the presentation so that you can use them in the interview like you should be able to show that you suite to there needs, your goals and there ethics should match.
The presentation started at 1.30 in the afternoon and I was given time for the interview as
3. the presentation ended at about 3 and I had to rush in for the interview. People were divided into groups and clubbed in different rooms. Different time slots were allotted to all the people. First we were given a form which basically consisted of what is written in our resume and things related to that. One sir called my name and the my answer sheet of the aptitude was attached with my resume and a photograph.
There were two interviewers I wished them good afternoon and they asked me to sit.
Sir: o.k Shikha tell me something about yourself.
I: as my name goes Shikha, I am a person who wants to touch new heights do something new something different and am very innovative. I am a very hardworking person and positive in my approach, diligent in my approach and complete all my work on time,

apart from other hobbies like reading books, making friends I love to learn from my past experiences in my free time I analyse my past.
Sir: o.k as you say you want to do different things, what is it that you have done different till now.
I: sir, I haven`t got a chance till now but given an opportunity I know I can do it.
Sir: (seeing in my resume he asked)what languages do you know?
I: c.
Sir: why c?
I: because this is the language I have been doing from the beginning and have worked more on this.
Sir: you have also written Oracle.
I: I have the practical knowledge of this and not the in-depth knowledge.
Sir: what is the difference between practical knowledge and in-depth knowledge?
I: it means that I can perform the practicals in this as this was the language in our lab.
Sir: but if you can work in this means you have the practical knowledge.
I: no sir, practical means that I am able to create database in this and write queries in this but there are other things in this also which I do not know.
Sir: so you can write queries?
I: yes sir.
Sir: so you have an orders table where you have order_id, order value and region as the fields, now we need to find out the region wise order value.
I: I wrote a query using groupby
Sir: do you think that this will give the required answer, for each region you need the total ordrevalue.
I: I used aggregate function in the query.
Sir: will this query give the required answer?
I: I think so but I am not sure 50%.
Sir: what do you see yourself doing five years from now?
I: I will join the company as a software trainee, I want a steady growth and learn constantly and in five years probably be the project leader or the project manager.
Sir: why do you want a steady growth?
I: I want to learn while I work which is possible with a steady growth, I want to rise stepby-step.

Sir: so you don`t want a fast growth, suppose you reached to a certain level and your friend had a sharp growth in her career then.
I: no sir, it`s not like that it`s like the hare and the tortoise race, hare reached at a place far ahead in less time but finally lost the race, I don`t want to stagnate and grow constantly when I will grow steadily I will learn more.
Sir: so if you will get the opportunity to have a fast rise you will not go in for that and still want to work steadily.
I: sir, if I have the capability in me then I will be able to learn faster as compared to others and reach to a higher position in less amount of time as compared to others while learning.
Sir: so you are what a team leader or a team player?
I: team leader.
Sir: in what all you have acted as a team leader?
I: I participate a lot in the cultural activities which are taking place in the college and coordinate the various events held.
Sir: what do you do as a team leader?
I: while in the college dances I had to select the songs, decide there sequence, the steps which we will perform and how we will perform that, everything has to be decided.
Sir: suppose that you have a friend and she has the capabilities but is not able to contribute then what will you do.
I; sir this actually happened with me, one of my friend`s is very good at dancing but she was not wanting to perform.
Sir: stage fear?
I: yes sir stage fear.
Sir: what did you do then?
I: sir I persuaded her that if we have the capability then we should perform, we should bring out our talent in front of everyone and not keep it to ourselves, and make sure that everyone knows about it. And finally I was able to persuade her and she gave the best performance.
Sir: have you presented any paper till now?
I: yes sir.
Sir: till what level did it reached?
I: level? I couldn`t understand.
Sir: it got which award and could reach to which stage.
I: no sir it got no award.

Sir: so was it selected?
I: no sir.
Sir: what do you think are the reasons that it was not selected?
I: sir I could have found out more about the topic from the net, and prepared a good paper.
Sir: was the time less?
I: Yes sir we had to submit our paper at about 12 in the afternoon and were told about it just a day before that when we were leaving the college at about 4-5 in the evening.
Sir: Shikha you wait outside don`t go anywhere.
I: thankyou sir.
Stage 3(Hr Interview)
As soon as I came out of the interview room I was told to complete the form which I was not able to complete earlier. I had to finish it fast then I was taken to the hr. The sir who took me to the hr handed him the report that the technical people had made and the other things which were given to the technical people also.
Sir: hello shikha
I: hello sir, good afternoon.
Sir: I have not gone through all these papers as I have just got them please give me time to go through these.
I: yes sir.
Sir: it`s a good report shikha.
I: I smiled
Sir: tell me something about yourself, apart from what is there in the resume.
I: as my name goes Shikha, I am a person who wants to touch new heights, do something new and different and am very innovative. I like to learn from my past experiences.
Sir: please don`t mind if I stop you in between because I will stop you when I have got what I wanted to know.
I: no sir.
Sir: can you give me an example what you have learned from your past.
I: I had done a big mistake when I was in class 12, at that time I knew I wanted to go for computers but the way was not sure. I thought that I will probably do B.Sc. and then do
MCA. But by the end of class 12 I realized that I wanted to do engineering but the time was not left for me to prepare for the competitive exams so I had to drop an year for that, if I had decided the thing earlier my one year would not have been wasted.
Sir: what have you decided for now?

I: sir I want to join a good it company and grow personally and professionally.
Sir: professionally is there how will you grow personally?
I: when I join a good company I will be in the company of experienced people so I can learn how do they communicate, their soft skills, how do they work in stress and how do they deal with it. Learn all those things which I am probably lacking now.
Sir: suppose Shikha I assign you a work which you don`t like in the it field, what is it that you don`t like.
I: networking.
Sir: so I assign you to networking but this is not what you like to do how will you persuade me to assign you something of your liking?
I: I will say that I don`t like this work and I am more interested in software development so please assign me some work in that.
Sir: but I am a rigid person and will not agree with you do and say that you will have to do this only, then.
I: I will do that work and do it to the best of my capability and show that I can do this also.
Sir: if I assign you to the job for one year then.
I: I will try to persuade you and say that I will be able to work more properly the work which I am interested in so please assign me some other work.
Sir: but I still won`t agree then.
I: I will do the work.
Sir; if I will tell you to do the work for your lifetime then.
I: I will still try and say that a person can give his 100% to a job he is interested in and can work more efficiently the job he wants to work, rather than something which he is not interested in.
Sir: but I still won`t agree then.
I: then I will do that job and prove that I can do any work which is assigned to me and probably that I will start enjoying that work by then.
Sir: don`t say this to anyone, be honest you cannot do something you don`t like for your lifetime, I will never do that.
I: yes sir
Sir: Shikha give me an example from your life that you were doing something and then the things started going wrong and what did you do so that everything was correct again.
It can be anything, not necessarily academics, can be cooking or anything else you were doing.
I:

Sir: suppose I have 2 posts and I want to take 50 people then why should I take you.
I: apart from being a consistent performer from the beginning, I am a very hardworking person and am flexible so can work in a team easily, and I am eager to learn, so can learn new things easily.
Sir: why do you want to join IBM .
I: it`s a good company, I have no relatives in this company but I have heard about this company that the work environment is good and it takes care of it employees.
Sir: tell me three good points about your college.
I: it has a huge building, excellent teachers and lots of cultural activities.
Sir: do you want to go in for higher studies.
I: no sir.
Sir: why?
I: I want to do a job right now and learn while I am working.
Sir: suppose you get an opportunity to do M.tech or research then what will you do and why.
I: sir, I will like to go in for research because m.tech is something which anyone can do and everyone is going to read the same books and learn the same things there is nothing new or different and what is taught at that time I can learn while being in the job but if I will be in research then I will develop something which others have not developed till now and probably set an example.
Sir: suppose you have been working in IBM for 6months and then you are offered for research then what will you do.
I: sir, if IBM is offering me work in research then I will join that because that will be the field of interest for me.
Sir: no some other company is offering you the job then.
I: I will not join that company because I cannot ditch the company which has offered me the job first. I will not leave IBM .
Sir: you have given how many exams for companies till now.
I: for L&T, Syntel,Sasken and IFlex.
Sir: do you have any offer letters.
I:no sir.
Sir: suppose at this stage you get an offer of 4lac. Then will you join the other company.
I: first, I will see that whether the company is offering me the job of my liking if yes then
I will join that company otherwise not.

Sir: do you want to ask any questions.
I: yes sir, I have two questions
Sir:
I: my first question is, I will join your company as a software trainee then what will be my growth once I join your company.
Sir: explained in detail.
You have got what you wanted.
I: yes sir.
Sir: your second question.
I: do I need to learn anything before joining your company.
Sir: no, we will give you training, but it is a good question, we will think about it.
So Shikha best of luck, probably you will hear a positive response, if your friends are waiting outside for you go and tell them.
I: thankyou so much sir

IBM PAPER ON 9th AUGUST 2006 AT NARAYANAMMA ENGG. COLLEGE,
HYDERABAD
Hello friends this is dinesh from hyderabad . I have faced IBM Interview on 9-08-
06 at Narayanamma Engg college, Hyderabad .
I got selected here .
This is my 5 th attempt to a s/w company and the second interview faced.(first one was genpact , faced just 4 days before that).
Be sure that ur confident enough at your part. Be straight forward .dont try to hide ur expressions , show ur frankness. They should believe that you are speaking all the facts ( may or may not be true).
Don’t give a chance to them to think in a -ve way abt u.

Always support ur words with a simple example especially when ur talking at the dangerous edges . don’t give a chance to them to ask further Qns on that ans. That the line it self should be self supportive.
For ex : if u r allowed to choose a location to work , you can say one or more locations immediately followed by the reason in 2 r 3 words for ur selection .(it is better than saying that it is ur wish. It indicates ur openness in expressing ur opinion )
Pattern :
The test consists of three rounds as of all of us know.
Written , Technical and HR interviews.
The written paper contains 55 Qns to be answered in 1hr.
It contains the Qns on verbal ability,Aptitude,reasoning, Attention details and technical.
The verbal ability includes the following Qns.
I got ___________ in traffic so got late (struck/struckup/hold/……).
Mr Benerjee the officer of …. was questioned ___________(for ,with,on,to) his connection regarding the murder.
The proteins present in ____ apple ,____banana,______Egg are very essential ………..
We have to fill the blanks with a, an or the ( ans: an,a,an)
A Qn was asked on the meaning of underlined word
Here the word is Therapeautic .
Miss X ( some name is given ) given a speech on _____ bank of ____ river kaveri regarding _____________ abilities of the women . like that the Qn goes here also they have given the options like
1 a, an ,the
2 the,the,a
3 a, the,a
4 the, the, the
ans:4 thre is an essay abt the ATM behavior and usage ,security mechanisms ,connectivity, technology used like that .
Qns are asked as follows.
1. how an ATM is connected to net.
2. what the operation not mensioned in the passage a. with drawl b. deposit c. donations to charities d . amount transaction btnm accounts
3. which of the following is false.

some time s Atm are un reliable.
They are connected through modems.
……
……
3. which is not a possible error regarding ATM.
a. mechanical error b. s/w error .i/p error ……..( the answer depends on the passage and actual errors given)
4. why ATM s are kept in shops
a. because there is no chance of theft there
b. no space in banks.
c. there will be more no of people.
……..
Then csome Qns are on venn diagram models
Like
1 . In a party 10 take only tea 15 take tea and 8 take only coffee then what is the number of persons take either coffee or tea.(nos are not exact).
2. In a college there are students who can play either football or cricket or both.
500 play cricket 220 play both and 600 play football .what is the total strength of the college.
Like this there are one or two more Qns… they r also easy and simple
Then now real IBM pattern starts. It also will be easy but needs a little bit of practice other wise u should have high spontaneous analyzing capacity.
Some 3 Qns are given with instructions like : given three strings check which of them are same ans: A if all are same, B if 1&2 are same, C if 1&3 are same, D if 2&3 are same, E if all are different
Strings are given as
1. a. 66749384879456 b. 6674934879456 c. 6674934879456
2. a. XIVIIMIVIIIVIXIV b.XIIVMIIVXIVIIIV c.XIVIIMIVIIIVIXIV
3. a. 34523897346579 b.343647654869679 c.346548364874379
Three Qns are given in the following model:
1.If + is replaced by *,* is replaced by -,- is replaced by / ,/is replaced by% nad % is replaced by + then what is the value of the following expression.
25-3+32/5%2
Some options will be given u have to choose correct answer. (all the digits are not same)

Next two of the same model but they are giving 4 expressions like above we have to find which one is correct.
Like: a. 35-2+4/3%42=35
b. 25+4-5%6*7=28
…..
……..
Like this they r giving 2 Qns. This seems to be some what risk just increase the speed of calculations .
The remarkable Qn of IBM is on cubes, in this imagination plays major role.
Given a Qn like this: there r three cubes arranged side by side
Each cube is divided into 64 cubes then top most layer of second cube is removed and top two layers of third cube are removed.
And then total volume is painted
1.
what is the number of cubes painted on 1 face , 2. two faces, 3. three faces , 4. four faces , 5. no face.
This qn needs more imagination or u have to know the answer well before for this particular qn.
Some Qn s are given on data sufficiency here also analysys plays major role.
There r some 4 or 5 Qns in this model
Like a can do a worked for 5 days and b worked for 7 days how many days they taek to complete the work ………..like that .
There r 3 more qns on relations ship btn numbers , on the solving of eqns.
Then we can have some Qns on technical
One Qn on c, one Qn on UNIX, one on RDBMS , on on processors like that total I had only 6 to 8 Qns
Qns are like this : what is the o/p of printf(“%d”,printf(ram)); ans:ram3
What is the command to kill or stop a process in unix ( kill,stop,terminate ……) . ans : kill (check it out)
Unix is what kind of OS ( multiuser and multitasking).
Like that some what easy Qns we can get.

In this written test I got 42 out of 54( one Qns is not printed well so they asked us to leave it) I saw it when they are pinning my resume to my applcn form and answer sheet.
I got selected for technical interview I was called up by Mr. Adithya for the first round of Interview.
Technical Interview.
The technical interview went on very cool such that we can say it as simple HR .
I got some Qns abt project and languages .
First I entered his cabin by saying excuse me sir .
He responded well invited me by shaking hand and offered the seat.
I said thank u and sat .
The interview started like this.
Adithya: have u attended the presentation in the morning?
My self: yes sir.
A: any more qns other than qns asked there?
M: If I got selected into IBM what kind of environment can I expect ( team /individual)
A: ya u can work on various technologies which we train u on . here u have work with the data base of Airtel on behalf of IBM. U can go for any of the technologies depending on the requirement and location preferences…………
M: is there any pre requisites for the job?
A: not needed but u can learn on ur own interest but not necessary.
Then he asked me abt my self.
I have my details as a flowing river which is well practiced followed by hobbies
,strenths and weakness, achievements.
A: what is ur greatest strength i.e c/c++/java/php/oracle like that(he said all the subjects
)?
M: I have strong knowledge in C, I know oracle well , I am interested in java also.
He asked what is poly morphism? Afte that what is pointer ?
I answered without any late
A: tell me abt ur project.
I explained the project as I am selling a product to him( with all the benefits by highlighting all the advatages and purpose of project)
By giving the details in the following order:
Project name client name …. Purpose ( simple in one line) back end
After that detailed description of flow was given .
A: what is ur role in ur project?
M : analysis, coding and testing ( analysis,coding,testing mantioned in resume)

A: u have analysed ,designed,coded,and tested the project .
M : ya
A: what the others have done
Here I got a chance to present me as a good maneger and ithink this is one major point I made an impression on him
I answered that as a leader I shared the total wotk among all the members
Ae r 5 people
2 are allotted for only documentation are allotted for only development I myself designed the data flow and screens and the data base ,how it should be.
Then database was to one guy to develop and one guy taken all the interfaces to develop I developed the server side scripting and I have tested all the coponents individually and integrated and tested again . In this way I participated in all the activities as a leader.
Here he got satisfied with the way I supporting my words.
So what ever u say , be sure that it is supported well .
Then he asked abt achievements.
I said that I have presented a paper .
Then he asked the details abt what did u do and what has been presented in the presentation.
Here also the same confidence was shown and given a brief explanation.
A: any more qns regarding IBM other than the subject / technology.
M: why ibm is considering the women and disabled cases while all others are looking for only talent for their profit .
He answered that qn for 3 minutes explaining abt the talent of woman then the risks of taking woman and how they are handling them and encouraging them.
I said it is very impressive and I like this culture
Then he asked me to wait for some time and hr will be conducted.
Among 27 people 7 were called for hr interview

GROUP DISCUSSION
Our topic was "Love marriage is better than arrange marriage". There were 10 persons in a group and duration was around 15 minutes. First 10 minutes were for open discussion and then everybody was given 30 seconds to summarize. Express your views only. It is not necessary that you have to take one side; you can take dual-stand also. Speak confidently for a few minutes.
PERSONAL INTERVIEW
Interviewers were very cool and friendly. My interview started with my introduction.
They asked some questions on my weakness. Then there were a few HR questions. Those were very easy to answer. Then there were a few questions from technical subjects viz.
Digital Circuits, OS, C and System Analysis and Design. I couldn,t answer all of them.
They actually look for your attitude, aptitude and learnability. Be confident and show them that you have good soft skills and adequate techical skill.Try to shift the discussion to your areas of interest if there is any scope. So, be cool, calm and confident and you,ll be able to become an IBMer tomorrow. Finally, they declared the results in a gallery.
Total students appeared: more than 100
Short listed after WT: 52
Short listed after GD: 42
Total selection from our university was 32 (18 from UG and 14 from PG students).

IBM PAPER ON 6th AUGUST

Hi , IBM GBS came to our college on 6th august.
The selection procedure has 4 rounds--
1. Aptitude test it had 3 sections............. first section was on matrices. 15 qs with time 12 mins( no negative marks). it had 3 5x5 matrices. then there were 5 qs from each matrix...............all qs were of reasoning type, somethink like if rows 2 & 4 are interchanged, what is the 3rd element in 3rd column.
Then, start at a particular element say upper right corner, follow certain directions and say the element u arrive at............replacing one symbol with other and qs related to that..............easy enough............just have to be fast in cracking those sums........... second section was related to number series. 20 qs with 4 mins time(1/4th negative marks). Series were easy enough, but u have to be really quick. some sequence of numbers will be given, u have to identify next one in series third section was arithmetic,12 qs with 15 mins time(1/4 negative marks). problems were from time&work, interest, time,dist&speed.somewhat easy, though u have to do calculations really quickly
2. Essay writing u will be given 15 mins to write an essay. our topic was "politicians should be honest".
They just want to see whether u have the capability to clearly write ur thoughts. Wont be a major hurdle as essay writing will be evaluated, if at all, during interview. out of 120 odd students, 52 cleared aptitude test
3 GD we were divided into groups of 10 and then there was a gd. topic was "love marriage is better than arrange marriage" they will give 10 mins for open house, then 30 secs at the end 4 each one to express his views. It is a selection rather than rejection round. So, if u speak up in gd, u will almost be through to next round.
43 cleared this round
4 Interview hr and technical will happen simultaneously. it lasts 4 abt 30 mins per person. not very difficult though. Just remember to be confident and keep a smile on ur face. They will be friendly. at last, 32 cleared

IBM PAPER ON 3rd AUGUST AT PUNE
Hello friends...
I m goin to share my experience with u that i had during the selection procedure of IBM.
They came for d placement on 3rd august and started their pre-placement talk at
9:00.After which we had our aptitude test.It had 3 sections
A.Matrix questions
B.Number series
C.Mathematical Section
Key to crack the apti is believe in the almighty plus Time management!!!
Leave the questions that r hard to solve...solve other questions and if time allows,then go for them.Number series was really easy...just be quick wen u solve them...leave the ones that r not comin.In mathematics there were 12 questions to be solved in very less time.here again u ve to manage time..out of 12 i could solve around 6-7...but remember not to mark d questions which u r not able to solve.there was negative marking then after the aptitute test we were given 10 minutes to write an essay...The topic was
"INDIA,s FIRST WOMEN PRESIDENT"....U shold write good points in tat....They generally read that wen they call u for an interview...I was not been asked bout the essay,i think they liked it..But many of my friends were being asked from their essay,s. The aptitude test finished at 12 n the results were out by 12:30..They were really quick...There were around 51 for the apti n wen the results were out my name was there among the 41 students...Imediately it was followed by GD in groups of 10.
Let me tell u that U ve to speak something in GD no matter what ;)...Always remember they r there to select you n not reject u....This not a GD for elimination..they just want you to speak somethin...
In my case the topic of discussion was "CRIMINALS IN THE EYES OF LAW"
It will be good if u start with the discussion but if not then also no problems...listen to all n then analyse n speak...the pannel was very supporting as they were giving chance to everyone in the group.The topics r very general from daily news so make sure to read the current news...Others were given the topic "Money makes u reckless" after Gd was over ,they announced the results n we all were in...infact all people were in..no 1 was rejected...so u ve to speak n with confidence....
Then we were called for the personel interview.... they saw my resume..did not ask nethin bout it ..They asked me my favorite subject...N

asked questions based on that...friends remember to prepare atleast 1 subject before u go for such interviews....U should brush up ur knowledge...I said OS..they asked me questions related to it....I was not able to answr them properly as i didi not revise d syllabus...But their were few questions that i answered well...u should relate ur answers with examples...They asked me if i know bout pointers n told me to write a simple swapping function...
Also some questions based on UmL diagrams just becoz i had it in course...So just remember to revise 1 subject...Then hey asked me if i ve any ques for them...
I initially said no sir...but they thought i was interested so they asked me to tell without hesitation...i asked them bout the work i would be doin in the company n regardin postings....
If u r already placed then they moght ask u d company n why u want to join IBM??? have a good n non-superficial answer.... okay then after waiting for bout 1 hour...they finally came in for declarin the results.... they said they will take only 15....That minute i totally lost hope...They were announcing d names one by one...n then they said Ela Vohra...n i was so thankful to God...it felt really gt to ve been selected for IBM....

· Matrix Manipulation: Three 5*5 matrices were given and there were 5 Qs on each matrix such as interchanging rows and columns, replacing one symbol by other, etc. (15
Qs in 13 min) there was no –ve marking for this section, so, I attempted all Qs.

She then came out of the cabin and sugested me to learn basics of computer languages, as am frm MECHANICAL.
************ HERE ONLY I SMELLED MY SUCCESS ************
HR
Here is final round for me ,i entered the room ,where hr was sitting ,he asked me to take the seat .

IBM PAPER ON 2nd JUNE
Hai friends I am Niranjan
I have been selected for IBM IN CAMPUS PLACEMENT conducted at BITS, Warangal
,A.P ON 2nd JUNE 2007. A total of 1406 students appeared 4 written test and around
220 were selected in written.
We were asked to write the ESSAY along with written test .Written test was started around 10.30 AM and ended around 12 noon which comprised of ESSAY also. Results were anounced around 3.00 PM.
GDs for 220 students started around 3.30 PM and ended at 5 PM I think so. Results were anounced at 6 PM and 164 were selected in GD.

They held INTERVIEWS on next day .There were no results after tech interview many of the students were directly forwarded to HR and some of them were rejected and they told them this directly. All the interviews were completed at 4PM . They announced the final results and 79 students were selected atlast.
WITH GOD’S GRACE I WAS ONE OF THEM. Let me explain u each phase in detail
1.WRITTEN TEST
A. VERBAL ABILITY(10marks):
1,.2) ques on prepositions

5) _ clown of that circus became famous for his antics.(article)
6-10 a RC on pollengrains, reproduction in flowers thru bees ………something like that
This was the easiest RC I have ever seen in any company’s written test.
B.APTITUDE(25 marks):
It consisted of 25 questions believe there was not even a single question from objective arthmetic(ie, trains, boats&streams ,time &distance etc .Please don’t waste ur time in preparing 4 arthmetic)
Almost all the ques r 4m VERBAL REASONING only (RS AGGARWAL is more than enough)
1-5) out of 600 students 536 have credit cards (AMEX,MASTER ,VISA

Draw the venn diagram with 3 circls intersecting
1)How many had MASTER card
2) How many had only MASTER card
3)How many had VISA card
4) How many had only VISA card
5) How many had AMEX card
I think difference betn 1 & 2 answers is 41 and 3 &4 is 21( have a wise guess its easy then)
Three ques on DIRECTION SENSE (easy)6 . A person starts behind is house which faces to east and walks 50m an turns left walks 100m ……… in wht direction he is from his house.
7. If NORTH is SOUTH-WEST then SOUTH-EAST is (ans is NORTH)

If the person fails to satisfy any of mentioned criteria then he has to report Manager or
Administrative officer …………………
D . TECHNICAL(10 marks)
3 questions are from C (easy) 3 questions from DBMS (very tough) 3 questions are from unix(easy 4 comp students) I didn’t remember the missing question sorry(I think its 4m
OS)
That’s it 4 written test RS AGGARWAL(VERBAL REASONING) and any elementary
English Book 4 grammar all the above 2 days before exam is more than enough to crack
IBM WRITTEN That is what I had and what I did.
2.
ESSAY

3.GD

They want u speak .Thats it. Our topic was "ENGINEERS SHUDNT ACCEPT JOBS
FROM OTHER COUNTRIES" 9 out of 11 were selected in GD from my group.

UP which I implemented in later part of my interview. To get through tech one shud possess
1. COMMUNICATION SKILLS with min TECH Skills 2. very high TECH stuff
3.mesmarism I used 3 and 1

IBM PAPER ON 26th MAY
I got selected for IBM on 26th May. The selection procedure lasted for two days. On the first day the written test and the group discussion took place. And on the second day it was time for the technical and the HR rounds to take place.
Well the written test was simple but the cutoff compensated it. There are 55 questions in the paper.10 from verbal,10 from technical and the remaining 35 from aptitude. The verbal paper was very simple. It just included the articles and prepositions. There is also a passage given related to a general topic. Every thing is easy in it and its quite good to score in it. Later is the quant paper. It has covered almost all the topics from right from the boats and streams to probability. It also included non-verbal reasoning. it is also easy.
But the most important point that you need to look upon is time factor. The technical paper is easy even.
There i no need to panic upon anything here. You need to manage your time very carefully.
The group discussion is easy as well. Tee topic given was "DOES CCRICKET
OVERSHADOW OTHER GAMES OR NOT?"That is quite an interesting topic to discuss upon. Every thing went on very well and the eliminations are very less in this particular round. The next day in th technical interview we were tested skills related to C and DataStructures.As Im a non It student i was not asked very much on it.I was asked questions related to my subjects.

In the HR interview they tried to jot down the interpersonal skills in you.Wat all that they tested in it were our confidence, stress handling capability and language fluency.

IBM PAPER ON 26th MAY hi friends, I have given the IBM paper today(26/5/2007) at CRR College,elurr.
The procedure follows:
1.
written test (with a essay)
2.
JAM
3.
TR
4.
HR
Its very easy to crack the paper,but the only thing needed is good time mangment.
The paper consisted of 4 sections:
1.
Aptitude(venn diagrams,some quant)
2.
verbal(comprehensions,fill with appropriate words)
3.
technical(just 15 out of 55, these are too from unix,dbms,C++)
4.
and finally they asked us to write an essay on "Agriculture in INDIA"
And this was the major elimination round becoz out of 1,270 only 243 qualified written.
And the results were announced 3hours later, and i got selected in the written, then they called us for group discussions,but they conducted JAM(just a minute) and the topic was
"DO CRICKET OVERSHADES ALL OTHER GAMES"and this is very easy topic and some other pannels have given topics like"globalisation,films,outsourcing....etc" and even in this out of 243 people only 181 could clear this round.
And on the next day they have conducted TR and HR.
Actually to say the IBM,s HR,s are very friendly,and they recieve us with cute smiles on their faces which will make us to present ourself confidently. now my technical interview goes like this,
ME: good morning sir.

IBM PAPER ON 10th MAY AT SURAT hello everyone, this is the pattern of placement paper for ibm global which came to my campus on 10th May . 192 out of 390 were selected for GD round and 34 got eliminated after GD. In all 114 were finally selected which was a record for them as well as for my college. written test consisted of three section first one was verbal reasoning which consisted of some articles n prepositions. A reading comprehension was also asked, this was tricky one and no question could be answered directly. there were 10 questions in all. second section was aptitude related. Believe me it was the easiest test i ever gave. there were different sections. in all 35 questions were to be answered.5 were related to venn diagram prob,there was a section about binary nos.$ denoted 1 and @ denoted 0.all we had to do was turn each given relation to its binary equivalent and then replace each 1 by
$ and each 0 by @.5 questions were about logical reasoning,20 questions were general questions like time, man power n probability questions, very simple u can do them at one go if u hav average iq.

The third section consisted of technical questions,3 were c lang related,3 on unix,2 on data structure n 2 on dbms specially sql.
GD was more of elimination rather than selection, make it a point to speak some good points and do speak fr some time . just speak and u r thru.
Personal interview hr: wats ur name me: sir abhinav hr: hav a seat mr.abhinav me: thank u sir hr: so mr. abhinav u r frm electrical stream and u r having such a good cgpa then y u want to go to IT sector me: sir before coming to this col i was not knowing wats good for me and where my interest lies.after coming here i tried my hands on programming n found tht i m quite good at it and it intersts me very much,i think u can only grow in tht field in which u hav interest. hr: ok wat all subjects hav u read me: sir i hv read fundamental of c prog,8085 microprocessor, digital circuits...(always mak it a point to tel only those subjects which involve logic or programming, try to skip core subjects lik power sys n control sys fr electrical...he will stop u after u tel him 3 , 4 subjects) hr: so u know c lang.. me: yes sir hr: okk ,so how much u rate urself in c me: sir i m the best in this col regarding algorithm development, infact i m sure i can compete with any comp. science student regarding logic development(believe me u shld b confident enough to say tht, it was a risk n i took it but if u r not tht good in c just say tht u knw basics of c...or whatever u feel is appropriate) hr: really,so can u tel me algorithm used by google search engine... me:( was bit nervous) sir i dont knw exactly bt i can try.. hr: ya sure try try me:blah blah blah hr: so u knw wats binary search me:(tht was very easy) blah blah blah

hr: tel me if i giv u a array of 1000 nos,all in ascending order in hw many iterations will binary search b completed? me: sir 10 because 2 to pwr 10 is 1024 ... hr: yes thts good ,i m impressed me: thank u sir hr: u told me u r very good in prog... can u supprt ur claim. me: yes sir i hav won one c programming contest n was 11 in c online comp.. out of 200 odd teams. hr: good so what all programs u did.. me: told him and then he asked me to explain one of the prog..was quite easy hr: wats diff btwn do while n while me: (told was easy) hr: wats pointer me: (easy) hr: ok so do u want to ask us any question.. me: askd 1-2 questions,(if thy ask u this questions its quite sure u r thru...) hr: u gav bangalore as ur preference can u tel y? me: gave sm funda(never say thers more oppurtunity or smthng lik tht. hr: thank u abhinav it was very nice meeting u me: thank u sir ,it was mine pleasure. see clearing ibm is very easy if u hav good pointer or if hav good marks in their written test, mine score was 43 out of 55 ,highest ws 48 (can b higher this is best to my knowledge) and i think cut off was 35(can b lower also). its easy fr girls ,if girls r in interview its vry rare they will b eliminated (they prefer girls). I don,t think they had sectional cut off, they will make u write essay but its hardly ever read bfr interview.
