Name of the Topic / Task : Case study
Time Given : 30 Minutes
Details of the process and your contribution:
26 candidates were shortlisted who were divided into two groups of 13 each and were given the same topic for case
study. Case study was based on response to stressful situations and decision making abilities where we had to
present our point of views and reach a general consensus at the end.

I had 4 rounds of interviews. 3 of them were mainly technical. I was asked to explain about my project work and a
few puzzles of varying difficulty levels were asked. Subjective questions were mainly from DS. Questions were
asked from trees, linked lists, stacks and queues, sorting and graphs. One software design question was asked in
one of the rounds. One or two questions were asked from OS mainly concentrated on processes.

There was one round of HR though the other rounds also had few questions. Panel members were easily
approachable and it was just like an informal discussion covering questions on future goals, schooling, hobbies,
passion, interests, why I chose to take up my branch, what I expect from GS, what I can offer to the company,
general take on recession and many others.

It is a good chance for everyone who has a good knowledge of basic programming and DS. The key is to be well
prepared and be confident. Just give your interviews with a cool head and this one is definitely not difficult to crack.
I am sure you will enjoy the experience. Good luck to all the aspirants.

It was quite a lengthy procedure but it was worth the wait. Aptitude was of good standard and GD was a novel
experience. Panel members were genial and interviews were challenging and at the same time interesting.I totally
enjoyed the HR round and discussed practically every topic under the sun with them. On the whole it was a nice
experience and it gave me immense satisfaction to have been a part of the whole process.
