h Technical Interview: Since I did a mini-project, I was asked to explain it! I
took much time for that and explained it from the beginning, with its advantages
and limitations. Then I was asked questions from C. Since I was a beginner in C
, I could not answer much, but somehow managed with all I knew! Then, as I am fr
om ECE department, questions from microprocessor was asked! The questions includ
ed 8086 microprocessor architecture, register structures, addressing modes, inst
ruction set and so on. I answered all those questions but had some difficulties
with the instructon set as he asked me to tell all the instructions I knew. Then
, he gave me a paper and asked me to draw certain gate diagrams and also to writ
e down the truth-table for those gates! These are the questions I remember. It a
ll depends on how cool you are during the interviews! The more you get hot, grea
ter are the chances for appearing blank before the personnels! So be cool and tr
y to answer all the questions. Human Resource Interview: I had the HR round befo
re the technical round. This was quite interesting.... The interviewer was a Lad
y. She asked me to introduce myself. I told her my academic history. But as she
emphasised on my personal life, I started with my hobbies. I said I love singing
and playing guitar. Immediately she interrupted and asked me to sing a song for
her. I was totally taken by surprise and had no other option but to sing! Then
she went through my resume and asked me to explain what I learnt from the Indust
rial visits I had gone. I explained all that I knew. The interview went on inter
esting with many such questions. But these are some noteworthy ones! After the i
nterviews were over, we were told that the results will be sent to the respectiv
e Placement Deans of each colleges. So we left very soon enjoying the rain that
blessed that night!

and around 600 candidates. Around 40 candidates were selected(not sure) 7 from o
ur college. INTERVIEW PROCESS: Our interview process had 3 stages 1.Logical & En
glish 2.HR Round 3.Technical Round Logical & Reasoning: This round in syntel is
a bit difficult compared to other written papers as it does'nt have any aptitude
and u hav nothin to work with formulas. You have 25 Qs from Logical(Verbal & No
n Verbal)Reasoning , 15 Qs from English R.S Agarwal Verbal & Non Verbal Reasonin
g book is more than enough. Topics u need to prepare: LOGICAL PART: analogy, cla
ssification, series completion, coding & decoding, Blood Relations, puzzle test,
Syllogism,analytical Reasoning ENGLISH: Antonymns, Synonymns, Find the Gramatic
al error, Complete the sentence. I did'nt hav Qs from all these topics but these
r the topics u can expect in ur written test. Test Duration is 1 hour. Type - f
illing the omr sheet Time management is very important. Practice all type of pro
blems as it takes u more time to solve cos these are not aptitude type Qs. After
the Written Test about 2 hrs Later the results were anounced. My name was the l
ast one to be read out. Then The PPT was conducted and presented about their com
pany's vision, mission, customers, the training, salary, bond ect. We were said

section had 15 questions and cut-off 8 . But I strongly believe that the cut-of
f marks were varied a little up & down.. though not by a big margin. The logical
sections include symbols, coding, blood relations, series and 2 DI questions. T
he verbal section consisted of correction of sentences, substitution of correct
words, and passages. Rating of the exam will be characteristic frm person 2 pers
on.. so I wouldn't comment on that. Results were announced, a brief inroduction
abt the company was given. The next round was a Technical cum HR round conducted
