Details of types of questions asked in each of the sections:
There as a sum total of five sections in the written section.the first section consisted of c algorithms,second section
was of quant type(pretty easy),the third section had a mix of c and data structures questions,the fourth section
comprised of questions from os and networking,in the fifth section students were given a choice among
c,c++,java.i opted for c,the questions in thois section were of very high standard.then there was an english section
in which we had to write a letter.

Technical Interview

they shortlisted around 23 students for the technical interview.depending on your performance they kept
shortlisting students in the interview itself,my first interview was pretty easy,it comprised of questions from c,oops
and codes were asked from ds.the interview lasted for around 45 minutes but was a pretty easy one,once
shortlisted for the second interview i had a torrid time facing the second interview,the interviewer kept asking
questions from networking to which i had no clue as we are taught networking only in 4-1.then a few questions
were asked from os(semaphore,deadlock,fifo,critical section,thread),then afew questions from cao as i had stated
that it was my favourite subject.the interview duration was around 30 minutes.

HR Interview

once u get through the technical rounds u get pretty sure that u hav landed the job,but we should never commit the
mistake of taking hr interview lightly.in the hr interview i was asked 3-4 puzzles(pretty easy..practice some from
any puzzles book),then they asked me questions regarding my strengths,weaknesses,passion,why hp should hire
you??and so on..pretty cliched stuff.the interview lasted for around one hour.the only thing that matters in hr
interview is to be confident in your answers and never to bak out on any previous answers that u hav given.

Suggestion

Be thorough with your concepts in c,c++,ds ,os and networking.c must be your strong point in order to clear the
aptitude.choose another subject to be your favourite and make sure u are thorough in that subject.
refernce books:c-kanetkar,dennis ritchie.c++:sumita arora,ds:mark allen weiss.for short questions go for test ur
programming skills in cand c++ by kanetkar.preparation for cat helps in the quants part.

No. of Candidate applied And Points that Worked in Favour

the written test was pretty easy except for the fifth section,i was pretty sure of making the cut once i reached the
interview stage i was a bit nevous but who wouldnt be on this occasion,but the interviewers were pretty cool and he
interviews were overwihin a flash,and luckily i got through:)
