Interview
When I gave interview back in 2010 there were 3 rounds :
1. Aptitude Test : Common aptitude problems - maths and discreet mathematics. This is a elimination round.
2. Business Communication : After the first elimination round. Second round is business communication round. In this round you need to write a letter based on the requirement provided by them. This is not a elimination round.
3. Personal Interview : After the business round, the next round is PI. It is one to one interview. The question were rather easy. Just make sure you study your resume well and know about your project. Also make sure you know one programming language. Preferably a object oriented language like C++ or Java.
