eLitmus test, what is it?

by Sriraj on February 28, 2009 Established in 2005, eLitmus has grown leaps and bounds in these four years and now, its one of the most preferred test (pH test) for entry level job seekers. This pH test will be similar to those written test that are conducted by companies in campus recruitments. But instead of separate written tests for each company a single pH score will be a tool to enter into the second round of the recruitment process of various companies, the Interview. Some of the top recruiters for the pH test include Accenture, Apollo Health Street, Canon India, Dell International services, Ericsson, GE Health care, HCL technologies, Huawei technologies, ITC Infotech, LG soft, L&T Infotech, Logica, McAfee Software India, Microsoft India, Motorola India, National instruments, NDTV, OnMobile, Robert Bosch besides many others. The pH test tests the employability skills of the test taker. It doesnt include any specific subject in your graduation but just basics in Mathematics and English language. pH test includes 3 sections, Verbal, this includes Reading comprehension, Sentence Correction/Completion, Analogy. Quantitative aptitude, this includes Arithmetic, Geometry, Probability, Mensuration and other basic mathematics. Problem solving section that includes Critical reasoning, Puzzles, DI/DS. Each section contains 20 questions. The pH test result gives you the percentile score, which compares your score with other test takers for that particular sitting. Scores will be available online on eLitmus site approximately 1 week after the test date. After which you can apply to companies (on eLitmus site itself) that are recruiting at that time. Generally it is said that a percentile of 90% or more is considered as a good score with which you can expect interview calls from Recruiters. You can always take another pH test if you score less in first take. Your pH score and percentile will be valid for 2 years from the date of the test.

Students who are in their final year of graduation or professionals with a max. experience of 2 years can apply to pH test. At present the pH test fee is Rs.699 which can be paid either online, or by a DD or by cash (if you stay in Bangalore). So, go ahead and test your pH (http://elitmus.com/users/new)
