May I come in Sir?
Yes, Come in.
Good Morning all. May I sit down?
Sure, Please be seated.
So Mr. Raj, Tell me about yourself?
I am Raj Srivastava. I belong to Ballia, Uttar Pradesh. Recently I completed my B.Tech course from MMM Eng. College and now I am woking in TCS since18th June at Trivandrum.
Why do you want to join ECIL then?
I told them about my dream to be in a PSU. I also told about my BARC interview and it is my last chance to get into a PSU this year as TCS doesn't allow leaves for me to write the exams of BEL and EIL. I bunked today in TCS and arrived here just today morning by flight.
(10000% lie….Actually according to my opinion, interview should be given according to interviewers what they want to listen...)
What is your stream there?
I started with PAT test due to which my stream was assigned. They were really impressed with that. I told them in advance about the project at which I was working and the module assigned to me. Actually SRS presentation held in TCS few days ago, so everything was on my mind.
What are your favorite subjects?
Software Engineering, Data Structure, DBMS.
Technical Questions -
What are the phases of SDLC?
What is maintenance?
How many types of maintenance are there?
What is adoptive maintenance?
What is verification and validation?
Write the recursive function to calculate the factorial of a given number?
What is the output – enum { a=10 , b=15 , c ,d , e , f}; printf(“%d%d%d%d”,a,b,e,f);
Although I didn't told them that OS is my favorite subject, yet they asked following few questions from OS. I didn't refuse to answer these questions. I was smiling while answering. I think they impressed with that.
What is multiprocessing and multithreading?
What are the differences between a process and a thread?
What is Kernel?
What is the difference b/w Kernel and OS?
How many types of Kernel are there?
What is context switching? How it happens? Who performs it?
And you know one thing, the lady who ask these questions to me is the wife of C&MD of ECIL and she is also a Scientific Officer-H in BARC. I think it's better that at that time i didn't know these things else i might became nervous.
And finally,
Explain your final year project.
Here my interview ended. My Bizskill lead in TCS suggested me to ask at least one question in any interview you face. Actually I never did that in past. I never asked any question to teachers in the class. I hardly spoke during classes. But today I motivated myself and asked the following questions -
What are the qualities you people usually looks for in a candidate?
Sound knowledge of his subjects, no attitude.
When is the result expected to be declared?
Within 15 days.
Thank you sirs and mams, Have a nice day.
