Webyog Interview Question 2014

Hi Guys,

I know its been ages since i last updated this blog. Thanks to a reader I finally have sat down to do a new post. I have another first hand account of webyog interview, this time from a reader who sat on  14th Sept 2014. Here is what she commented on the last years post i paste it here as it is.

I have written the webyog test on 14th sept, 2014. There was no question related to aptitude. Questions were as follows:

1. Which feature in C/C++/Java you don't like? Give a suggestion to make it better.

2. What is class? How classes help into improving programing.

There were 8 questions from coding. Each two were from C, Java, Java script and Dot net. You have to attempt any 4 questions.

3. Search and remove a particular node from linked list. (C/C++)

4. If a user enters any number then you have to print the English name of that number.
example : 1 -> one
                   120 -> one hundred twenty
                   8760 -> eight thousand seven hundred sixty

5. What is the best way in java to search and remove duplicates. Give a sample program.

6.Given two arrays : {1,2,3,4,5} and {2,3,0,1,5}
Find the element in second array which is not present in first array in java.

7. ) delete the duplicate words in the following sentence in java script
     this is is very very good


I only could remember these question. There were 10 questions total. Time duration was 60 min. Thanks

 I have decided to do a new post for this so that its more accessible. And Special thanks for my special reader. Read, Learn and Share

Last years questions are still available here Webyog interview questions

eLitmus Software Developer interview questions

I'm back once again, and in this post i'll be sharing Question asked in the first round of recruitment drive held by eLitmus for the post of Software developer. This paper is purely memory based and only one set, whatever I had access to when I sat for this drive.

Hope you find it useful. Here it goes...

eLitmus Interview Questions

1>     Write an algorithm to reverse an String word by word (Not character by character) E.g. Given String is “I work for eLitmus, and I am 21 years old!”

Output should be : “o ldye ars amIande, Lit m us 21 forwo rkI!”

Description: only alphabets should change their positions , special characters should retain their initial positions.

There are to methods give is_alphabet(char) returns true if char is alphabet

And reverse(String)    reverses the string like “eLitmus” becomes “sumtiLe”

2>     A puzzle which was very confusing I didn’t understand a thing.

3>     There are five dices to display dates like 17APR

Face having 6 is used interchangeably for 6 and 9. Letter dices have letter without repeat to display all months in that format except Aug which is represented by VAC

Find all digits on dice having 6 and all letters on dice having letter L

4>

Three table having relational database of movie reviews. We have to write two SQL queries both involve join and one self-join.

5: Which data base will be best suited for storing recent History in a web browser. Justify your answer.

6: pre order to post order binary tree 

Technology JK

7: which online portals you use to keep yourself updated with technical news. List all.

8: List open source technologies developed by a) Facebook b)Google apart from android c)Oracle d)Twitter e)Microsoft

9) Which of these is not a mobile OS a)Bada b)FirefoxOS c)WebOS d)PhoneGap e)Symbian

 Keep checking back for more. And  dont forget to like, share and comment or else I might end up not bothering with updating my blog.

Reversing string in c using pointers

#include <stdio.h>
#include <string.h>

void print_reverse_string(const char *str)
{
    const char *src = str + strlen(str);
    while (src > str)
        putchar(*--src);
}

void reverse_string_and_print(char *str)
{
    char *src = str;
    char *end = src + strlen(src) - 1;
    while (end > src)
    {
        char t = *end;
        *end-- = *src;
        *src++ = t;
    }
    //return str;
   printf("%s", str);
}

char* reverse_string(char *str)
{
    char *src = str;
    char *end = src + strlen(src) - 1;
    while (end > src)
    {
        char t = *end;
        *end-- = *src;
        *src++ = t;
    }

   return str;
   //printf("%s", str);
}

int  main(void){

    char data[50]= "";

    printf("Enter any string:\n");

    gets(data);

    printf("%s\n", data);
    printf("%s \n", reverse_string(data));
    printf("%s\n", data);

    return(0);
}

I have written the abbove code to reverse an string using pointers. I assume that the above code is self explanatory but still if you want any clarification use the comment section below post.

Peace.

CGI fresher recruitment drive

CGI Group has been recruiting freshers through eLitmus. Most of their recruitment drives are conducted by eLitmus. In this post I'll discuss how CGI recruitment drive is carried out.

There were all together four rounds. Ill be discussing each in details.

First Round: Aptitude Test

First round was an aptitude test. The difficulty level was not too hard and you had to do only 12 out of 25 questions to qualify for the next round. Yes there was a specified cut-off marks. No negative markings. The most distinct part of the aptitude test was that there were a few questions from Operation Research . There were questions from Traveling Salesman problem, Shortest path algorithm etc.

Round Two: Group Discussion

This round was a simple group discussion round. In total there were about 10 - 11 candidates in each group.Emphasis was on communication skills and not the content of your idea. Every one was given a chance to speak and the whole discussion was lead by the coordinator. There was no chance of it becoming a machli bazaar.

Round Three: Personal Interview

In this round, it was a one to one face to face interview. Questions were basically from your resume. They'll ask a lot of question about your final year project. Your proficiencies in programming languages etc. Well they at least interviewed me in that way.  They person who went before me was interviewed only in 5 minutes and not selected. So make sure you don't blow it up just by walking in. My interview ran over half an hour.

Round Four: HR Interview

No idea what happened there, I didn't make it to this round.

That's it and please don't ask me exactly what they give in aptitude test I don't have that sharp memory.

Peace.

e Litmus pH test exposed II

Sorry for the delay. I promised to do a post on complete procedure of eLitmus but the wait is finally over. In this post Ill reveal the entire procedure of how you get job through elitmus.

So here it goes...



The first thing you have to do is register yourself  with elitmus on their website.

Next step plan a test. Test are conducted in all major cities across India with an approx frequency of around one a month. Test fees is Rs 750 at the time of publishing this blog.

eLitmus

 

Now comes the real issue. You have to prepare for the test. The test has three parts;

1. Verbal Ability
2. Problem Solving
3. Quantitative Aptitude

Now the problem is that I cant help you much with the preparation part. Why? Well I took the test without any preparation. On the elitmus forum is written that the test has difficulty level of CAT but I didn't find it difficult at all. Thats that, find your own ways for preparing. And if you as brave as me you can head to the examination hall without any preparation.

Now come the question hows test conducted.

I took the test in Calcutta center. Ill be describing how its conducted there. The procedure might differ in some other center.

Once you have paid for the test they'll email you your admit card which will be a password protected PDF. All the information related to test like venue timing etc will be given in that.

My tets was conducted in St Xavier, Park St, Calcutta. Most of the procedure is same as any other test. Its a 2 hours test. And you'll not be allowed to go anywhere in those two hours. So make sure you're done with all you needs before sitting for the elitmus test. ;)

As I told you it has three section, each section has 20 question. And yes there are negative markings as well. But its a little lenient. You marks wont be deducted unless  more than 25% of question in a section are wrong.

How much do I have to score to qualify?

For Quantitative aptitude and problem solving; doing 8 questions correctly will guarantee around 95 percentile. You'll be on cloud nine with that score.  For Verbal reasoning 15-16 out of 20 will be enough.

If you get that much you'll be getting interview calls from almost all companies that recruit through elitmus.

I have seen students with less that 90 overall getting calls.

One thing you need to make sure is that you score over 80 in all sections.

Thats it for the elitmus pH test.

What happens after that?

eLitmus

Companies call you for recruitment drives, which are very similar to drives conducted in college campuses.

In upcoming posts Ill be talking about how the drives are conducted. Obviously Ill only be discussing the once I have attended.

If you want some more info don't feel shy while commenting.  

Later.

WIPRO BPO Campus Drive

Hi
Today I attended the campus recruitment drive of Wipro BPO. It was a nice experience even though I did not get selected.

There were altogether four rounds.

First Round:

Very basic interview round only two question was given.

1. Tell me about yourself.
2. Read the first two sentences from the given passage.

The sentences were simple tongue twisters. In this round about half of the participants were shown the exit door.

Round Two: Personal Interview.

Don't know what happened in that as I never sat for it I was advanced to the round three directly after round one.

Round Three: Telephonic Interview.
In this round we got a call from Wipro on our cell phone. It had three phases.
Phase one:
A simple conversation round, I was given the question "Which sports according to you is most famous?".
I replied "Globally football". What I remember from the conversation follows.
Q: Why do you think football is most popular sports
A: Cheap, Good teams throughout the world, Older. (Well these answers were given in proper sentences not just keyword. Here I mention only the keywords.)

Q: Do you think its a sports or an art.
A:Sports

Q:Why
A:blah blah blah

Q:What do you like about Football and what you don't like
A: Like Team spirit, Don't like foul play.

There were some other questions as well.

Phase Two:
Similar questionnaire about Laptop and Desktop. I chose Laptop and similar questions about laptop followed.

Phase Three:
I was told to read a passage of about four paragraphs on the phone.

Didn't clear this round :-(

Round Four: Technical Round
A sheet a 20 objective type questions divide in two parts was given. Question were extremely basic computer familiarity type.

Pool Campus Placement II

Greetings!
In this post Ill continue from where I left the last post of this Title.

After the Aptitude Test came the round for group discussion. And believe me the group assigned to me was a total mess, You'll know what I mean after reading this post.

Well to begin with I don't exactly remember the number of participants  but we were more than ten. Topic given was "Should government finance elite educational institutions like IITs and IIMs.

Most of the participants were aggressively supporting the idea that it should. Some weren't decided and I, like most of the time, had a completely different idea than all. I opined that the government should not finance elite educational institutions.

As I said the group itself was a mess, every one was shouting at the top of their voices, not letting others speak.  Apart from me. I cant remember any solid argument with which they could come up to prove their case. My most challenging argument was that there are colleges throughout the globe which get no finance from any government and are probably doing much better than the IITs and IIMs.

May be this argument and my manner help me to clear this round too, Alhumdullillah

There were six round all together  in the recruitment drive, and hopefully Ill do a post for each. More to come so keep checking ge33ek.blogspot.com regularly.
See Yah!

Pool Campus Placement

After a long time I am back on my blog,
This time I do have an interesting read for my viewers, I am gonna talk about the first campus interview I faced a couple of months ago. The company was Odessa Technologies. The Campus recruitment drive was conducted on the Pan University level.

The First Level was an Online Aptitude test. We were given less than   a minute to attempt one question there were around 70 questions to answer. The questions were from a varied domain including secondary school mathematics, IQ, Logic and Language (English). I took up the test and started to attempt those questions which I was sure to solve without much difficulty, starting from the first. By the time I were able to scroll to the last question I found out that I had only a few minutes left before the test was over.

Since there were no negative marks, I marked all the questions which I skipped in the first go just by guessing.

So what do you think what should the result be?

Enough with the curiosity, yes I did clear this level. Alhumdullillah.

About next level Ill talk  in next post.

C yah!

Pool Campus Drive

We had a pooled campus drive in our college yesterday. And was the first such drive that I participated in.
Until yesterday I hadn't sat in any type of campus drive or job fare.
Well it was an experience of a kind but not too exiting. The whole process was opaque, so you couldn't make what you did right and what wrong.
In the first round I was like " Man this is toough". I werent too happy with what I did. And to my astonishment I was selected for the next round.
In the second round I took the questin read it, the re-read it solved it. checked it and returned the paper before any other person. I became damn confident that I have cleared this round too. but again to my utter astonishment I didnt make it to the next round.
God know what goes on behind the screen.
Cheers.....
