Appeared for Written: almost 170
Cleared written: 68
Selected: 39

Initially they told us that they are going to conduct GD but at last they
haven't but remember they have just started the GD tradition in on campus
interview processes.

1. Written test (Meritrac): 55 qs to be answered in one Hour & an essay to
be written within 10 mins. (in our group essay topic was "chances of India
in winning world cup")

For Aptitude test, paper was easy but time consuming in our case it was
30+ & sectional cutoffs for only CSE, IT, MCA, MTECH students so
consistency in each section is required.

Section 1: English aptitude (article preposition, RC, Synonyms)
Section 2: quantitative aptitude
Section 3: analytical ability
Section 4: computer section

Represent stack by linked list?

Me: answered confidently & correctly.

Ibm: what abt C?

Me: I informed that this is my fav subject but as C is a programming
language that's why I have mentioned datastructure.

will happen?

strategy, tem building & pulling out best from them).

Ibm: As u have completed your portion but your peers are facing same
problem. do you go for amusements? NO so what will u do?

Me: As I am also bearing the risk of IBM so I will stay to assist my
collegues & for this reason I can sacrifice.

Ibm: You told that your hobbies are listening to music & singing. What
kind of music you like to listen? What are the diff types of music explain
when you listen them? If I give u an option to choose a particular type
which one will you choose & why?

Me: answered.
Ibm: Anjan would you like to sing some lines for us?

Me: I said why not and sang.
Ibm: All of them smiled & said its really very nice to meet u.

Me: I smiled & greeted all of them ..

Ibm: yes definitely we will disclose the result after 8 pm.

Tthey offered us their T shirts IBM persons are really friendly u cant
imagine their politeness & their behavior. IBM seeks students who have
DEDICATION, INNOVATION, and TRUST. They require team workers so try to

Hi there, few days back i had an interview with OPI Global(Outsource Partner International). The first round was suppose to be written Test. I wasnt sure about what kind of questions will be asked, so i just googled for the same but did not find any appropriate results or may be i was not able to find it. So basically I am gonna write about the questions and their level of difficulties with a few sample questions. basically there are 5 sections and total 40 Questions: 1. General English 2. Computer Skills (Mostly Excel) 3. Analytical 4. Aptitude 5. Finance & Accounts Sample Question Section 1 Ques - I stay ___ the city center Option - a. by b. near c. nearby d. Ques - I ___ television this evening Option - a. saw b. view c. watched Section 3 The question was too long so i just cant write here but can tell you the level of difficulty. It was pretty simple but you just need to read it care fully and you would be able to solve it easily. Section 4 I am not very good at aptitude so found this section little tough for me. Question - If 10 ppl can finish a work in 10 days then how long 8 ppl will take to finish the 3/4 of that work Option - I dont remember. Question - Car A runs at a speed of 40 miles and leaves the city at 3.20 PM, Car B runs at a speed of 50 miles and leaves the city at 4.40 PM. At what time Car B will catch Car A? Option - I dont remember the options Section 5 I just cant remember the questions but would suggest you to read abt personal, real and nominal accounts. Read little bit abt depreciation and basic stuffs.
