Persistent Placement papers
HI friends,
Persistent visits our campus . There was pre-placement talk @ 8am. The recruitment process consists of THREE rounds and each round was elimination round.
1. Aptitude Test
2. Technical interview
3. HR interview
1. Aptitude test was online and was from 10am to 11.30am. They had prepared separate papers for entc and IT+comp. Nearly 90 candidates were giving aptitude test. It consists of three parts
a. Objective type questions (60que, 60marks, 60min. )-For entc all 60 questions were from quantitative aptitude and for others they have included technical questions.
b. Puzzle for entc and others have to write code in c.(20marks, 20min.)
c. Essay- My topic was “INDIAN MEDIA”(10 marks, 10min.)
Within 15min. they declared result of aptitude test.
Only 13 students were able to crack the aptitude and only 2 from entc and luckily I was one of them.
They announced schedule for technical interview, which starts from 12. My slot was @ 2.30pm and I was last candidate for technical interview but it actually starts @ 5pm.
