MY INTERVIEW EXPERIENCE ON WIPRO
This is Biswajeet Bhuyan, B.tech (ETC) 2007-2011 batch from Synergy Institute of Engineering & Technology, Dhenkanal. I had my Wipro On campus on 15th & 16th March, 2011. More than 300 candidates attended this drive. 31 were selected out of them. I was lucky enough to be one of them.
First round was Aptitude.
They selected 99 after aptitude. Then filtered it to almost 45 after the technical and finally eliminated 14 after HR. So the final list was only 31 and my name was 12th in this list.
There were three sections as usual: (No negative mark but with sectional cutoff). Time: 60min
Written test
There were 3 sections as such:-
Note: One has to attend all the questions. And all one need is to manage the time properly!Equal importance should be given to all sections since there is sectional cutoff. And I got cleared in 1st round. It was on 15th March 2011.
Just after that there was essay writing. We entered into the hall at 03:00pm. After that we were told to write an essay on the given topic. We were given 10 mins to complete the essay. Even there was no elimination in this round it was referred to in my technical round. This was to test our communication skills.
