Sonata Campus Placements

Sonata has hit our campus last week. In the PPT they talked about the "The Second Movement". One thing i most liked about the company is it offers solutions to many companies on varied domains.

I think most of u know the pattern for recruitment.
50 simple questions in just 12 minutes. Based on the no. of candidates they require they decide the cut-off.
Then another written test is conducted, this time that is technical (C).

In this round some people got screened. Then the interview process started.

Dont get scared by the questions they ask. Prior to the technical round, they kept the HR round.

Coming to the technical round they asked the various concepts that we learnt in the past 6 years. That is 4 years B-Tech + 2 years M-Tech. Principles of Software Engineering, Definitions of Architecture, What is the architecture of Windows etc.. They also asked to write a program for Prime numbers

CA Campus Placements

C A Company has come to our campus to recruit some graduates. We were very much impressed by their PPT (Pre Placement Talk) and as it is the 5th largest software company. I was very much impressed when they said that "We don't offer you jobs, But We offer you careers". They also motivated us to write the exam and thereby telling about the importance of every second in life.

We were very ambiguous about the recruitment process. Finally the written test started.

1st section is aptitude, about 15 questions were there. Out of which, 5 are based on sets and 5 are related to cubes painted with colors etc.. and 5 on different topics.

2nd section is verbal. Synonyms, antonyms type questions were asked and a reading comprehension was given

3rd section is attention to detail.

4th section is technical one. We can choose either of C, CPP or Java. But, the success mantra is to take Java. As in our case all the selected people took java. Most of the questions were based on threads.

Then the technical interview starts. For CPP guys main questions were based on strings
For those people who opted java, concepts in C and CPP are also asked. Like storage classes, Pointers, Structures, OOPs and the directory structure of Apache and Tomcat web services.

The Next round was taken by the vice-president, a mixture of HR and Tech. questions were asked.

Then Finally, the HR round. But, they consider the cumulative scores.
