Student Testimonials
My placement interview was conducted by a leading technology company Capgemini. The entire selection process was conducted virtually in three phases. Initially they conducted a 5 round test which included various sections(aptitude, gaming ,motion,general English,physcometric test). The second phase was technical interview where I was judged on the basis of my technical skills and submitted project details which included questions on various platform and computing languages.It was followed by a HR interview that focused on my communication and leadership skills to effectively manage real world problems.I am very thankful to my campus faculty for preparing us to grab all sorts of technical and nontechnical opportunities.I will forever cherish these years of experience and hardwork that played a significant role in making me capable of grabbing this placement opportunity.

I got selected in TCS with a Ninja profile. My placement process was conducted in two rounds, both the rounds were elimination rounds. Initially they conducted an online test, it was the general test of 3 hours which included mental ability, reasoning, verbal and logical questions and coding questions. The second round was an online interview round, the interview lasted for around 35-40 minutes. There were three interviewers in the panel for technical, hr and managerial. They asked me some general questions about me, about my ongoing internship role and experience. The technical interviewer was impressed to see internship experience. He asked me technical questions on the topics which were mentioned in my resume and a basic coding question was asked (pseudo code). Basically they crosschecked all the things i mentioned in the resume. HR and managerial asked some basic general situation based questions. I am thankful to my teachers for their constant guidance and support.

Interview is a 3 step process. Step 1 is an online assessment where they check your aptitude and reasoning ability. In Step 2 you have technical interview where they check your knowledge in subjects like DBMS, Java and AI/ML. Step 3 is an HR-Round where they discuss service agreements and work profile with you. I am very thankful to my campus faculties for preparing us on how to deal with the questions which are asked in aptitude tests and in various interviews.
-Tarun Puri
My technical interview went very well ,it started off with the interviewer asking me about myself. I was then asked questions about my achievements as I mentioned in my CV and about my experience as a CR , then questions based on my academics from JAVA and CPP. After clearing the technical interview there was HR interview which had the main purpose of getting to know me, my take on life , how I ended up choosing CSE and a few other questions.
I was truthful in giving all the answers and got through the interview, finally getting placed.
I would like to thank the faculty and respected teachers for preparing us for the companies and specially the GNDU for proving a platform that helped me get placed.
