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.

Finding a job in Bangalore: First Challenge

Hi

I know that there are lakhs of Berozgaar Engineers like me all over India. I  also know that most of us (Berozgaar Engineers ) have either already made a pilgrimage to Mecca of IT industry in India, Bangalore, or planning to do it pretty soon. If you are like me I have got some really valuable info for you. I am not at all kanjoos I am gonna share what ever I have learned in my past couple of months of stay in Bangalore.

Now to begin with, the reason which brought me to Bangalore was that I got a whooping 95 percentile in eLitmus test and withing a week got an interview call from Webyog. You can read about eLitmus pH test and webyog interview in my previous posts. So packed up and decide to leave for IT Mecca immediately.

The first challenge.

Getting a railway ticket to or from Bangalore is never easy, specially if you have to travel in shirt notice. And finding one is almost impossible when you have to travel the next day. Now first advice while you read the first challenge.  If you are still planning to come to Bangalore get your ticket in advance, at least one month before you are actually traveling. Continuing with my story. There were no tickets available not even waiting list. Now tatkal was the only option left.

I tried consulting with who ever I could, got some very useful information. As you might know as per the current rules Tatkal Tickets are only available one day in advance and that too after 10:00. But the interesting part is that the queue starts from 5 in the morning. Since I had to get my ticket anyhow I woke up at 4 and sped off on my ambition with lots of ambition to reservation counter almost in the middle of the night. For some of us Btechs the exact time we go to sleep. Reached there at around five and no I was not the first person in the queue, there were around 18 people before me already. Now we had to wait until ten when the counters open.

Just before ten, after some dhakka mukki and gaali galaoj queue was formed and reservation forms distributed. Exactly at ten the counters opened and number of available tickets began to drop like leave in autumn. There were total around 200 tickets. At 10:01 around 130 left, at 10:05 70 left. My heart pounding, if a doctor had taken my pulse at that time he would have definitely started my diagnosis for exterem blood pressure. I reached the counter at 10:10 and guess what? there were still 30 berths vacant, finally I got my reservation confirmed and happily returned home.

Now it was time to do packing.

Second advice: Don't count on tatkal reservation any more. Some one has written some bots for making reservation through IRCTC and a lot of agents are using it so now within a minute all tickets get sold out. And if you get to lay your hands on that bot please do share it with me too.

I think that's all I can write right now.  More to come very soon.

Peace

And there are links right at the bottom of this post to share this and all other post on all social networks , have a look. Please share it.

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.

eLitmus pH test exposed

If you have ever wanted to know how is the eLitmus pH test conducted, you must have by know realized that find proper info is just impossible on the internet. I have tried Google, I have tried Bing, I have tried Yahoo and all I could, I have exhausted reading the eLitmus forum, all in vain. But the good news is that I have taken this test and know I know it inside out.

I am planning to do a complete spoiler of eLitums pH test but….. Ill wait till results are out. Only then you’ll get to know the firsthand experience.

Till then keep waiting and if you are really desperate let me know, ill try to hurry it up. 

elitmus pH test has been exposed in this post.

Blah Blah ! Yada Yada!

Yeah I know I know its been long since I have posted anything here. Nothing much going anyways, so what d'you think Ill post about.
The story so far is that I have a job offer already and my exams aren't even over yet. Only a week left though.

Most of the companies don't  seem to be on a recruiting spree this year. They are says its a slowdown this year. Good for them but what about us? Huh? Where do we go. And those which are hiring want to get their work done at dirt cheap packages.

That's all for now folks! Looks like its screwed already.

BTW if you want some more inside info on recruitment process of Wipro BPO, IBM GBS Support Executives etc let me know. I have gone through they recruitment process a couple of times after my last post. I might make a post about that as well. May be next time.

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!

Campus Interview

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 On-line Aptitude test. We were given less than   a minute to attempt one question there were around 70 question 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 were sure to solve without much difficulties, 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 about in next post.

C yah!
