The paper consists of following section:

1 - Aptitude (16 question).


2 - Logical reasoning (16 question.
3 - Essay writing.

Exam was conducted by cocubes on behalf of capgemini.

Some questions which I remembered is.

1 - A man is known to speak truth 3 out of 4 times. He throws a die and report that
it is a 6. Find the probability that it is actually 6.

2 - A fair coin is tossed 4 times. What is the probability of getting at least 2


tails?

Around 2900 appeared and 700 is selected for technical aptitude around. It consists
of following section.

1 - Basic coding - 4 questions.


2 - Data structure - 5 questions.
3 - Algorithms - 5 questions.
4 - Digital logic - 2 questions.

Finally 244 student is selected for next round of technical interview. I was also
one of them. He asked me the following question.

1 - Oops concept.
2 - Difference between C and C++.
3 - Compiler and phases of compiler.
4 - Question releated to project.

Those who passed the technical interview went for hr interview, luckily I also got
selected. Note each round was a elimination round. So, finally 120 students
selected for hr round and 94 students finally given the job and I was also one of
them.

Tips:

1 - Capgemini doesnot want the hardcore programmer so only knowing the basic
program like factorial, Prime, armstrong and similar leval kind of program will be
enough.

2 - Basic knowledge of os, database and current trending topics like cloud
computing, iot, bigdata.

These questions were asked to almost every Candidate.

3 - Prepare your resume very well 90. /. Question will be from your resume.

4 - Prepare project very well. They may asked some question like.

1 - How do you provide security to your project.

2 - How is it diferent from others.

For hr round be confident and always say yes when they asked about relocation,
night shift, and bond.
Best of luck.

Hi.

I am from Dr B.C. Roy Engineering College. Here I'm sharing my experience it might
be helpful for others. We had an on campus drive on 19th and 20th. They started
with a presentation. Please watch the 1 hour presentation very carefully because
your HR round questions will come only from the ppt.

Coming to the aptitude test. There was 2 sections conducted by co cubes. No


negative marking was there. !s section consists aptitude (for this section my
suggestion is to follow R.S Agarwal, IndiaBix).

There were 16 questions and the 2nd section consists of Logical Reasoning. This
section was tough (little bit). There was no hard and fast rule that you have to
complete 1 section first and then you can switch over to the other one. For my
suggestion solve apti section first then solve reasoning part.

Total question 32 (16+16).


Total time 50 min.

Then comes Essay writing. 30 mins is allotted for this round. Min 200 words, Max
240 words. Ample amount of time and you can easily complete the essay within the
stipulated time.

My topic was True qualities of a leader.

We didn't have the pseudo code round. We don't know the cut off but try to score
more than 26. It's a game of time management.

32 students cleared the 1st round.

The Technical Interview round was quite easy. First they ask you to tell about
yourself. They check your CV thoroughly and ask you from there. Don't lie on your
CV, you must be prepared to answer anything and everything related to what you have
put in your CV. My interviewer was the coolest guy I've ever met. He asked HR
questions also. It was just a normal conversation. HR round was just for formality.
Although I became numb in my HR interview. But my technical round was great.

Students who cleared Technical round all of them got selected(28).

Show confidence, even if you don't feel like it. Keep eye contact always. And
please don't lie.

All the best. Don't worry because in capgemini People matter, results count. :).

Hello friends, here is the total deal of Capgemini:-

action.

2) Something related to Ethics and moral principles.


etc.

Pseudocode round questions.. as told by the qualified students:-

Out of 20 MCQs 16 were from C i.e Find the output,2 from Data Structure,2 from
Digital Electronics.

In some cases 8 from C,2 from Digital Electronics,6 from DS,4 from basic
programming.

I have no idea regarding PI and HR rounds.

I would like to suggest certain points.

1) Sectional cut-off plays a big factor in Apti round so keep it in mind.

2) Essay writing- Space after(.) Space after(,) Minimum mistakes in spellings and
avoid using backspace.

Good Luck :).

ESSAY WRTING TOPICS:

1) Winner is always stands alone.


2) Ethics and moral culture.
3) The qualities of the good leader.

Capgemini came to TICT on 11th September 2017. They allowed students from all
streams including ME, CVL, EE with 60% throughout and no active backlog to sit. The
whole process had 4 rounds:

1) Aptitude and Essay.


2) Technical MCQ.
3) Technical Interview.
4) HR Interview.

1) The aptitude was your standard quantitative and logical reasoning questions, 32
each for a total 50 minutes time. Only one essay questions with max no. of words
240 and min. 200 for 30 minutes time.

This round is taken by CoCubes on behalf of Capgemini. The cutoff was high to
eliminate students. The exam works in slots where you have to enter a pass key in
order to give the exam and the results are declared pass key wise. My slot and I
had a very bad experience with this since they didn't declare the result for our
slot and when we raised the issue with the Cocubes people they said the whole slot
did very bad in their essays and all got zero.

We obviously didn't believe them since its not possible that all 54 people in the
slot got zero. We asked our Training and Placement Officer to look into the matter.
CoCubes did everything they could not to help us and check things out. Finally our
TPO sir went to the Capgemini recruitment head. The Capgemini teams asked CoCubes
for screenshots of our tests. They reviewed it and then 17 out of 54 people got
selected for the next round.

2) The technical MCQ was very tough for us, though for my friends in other slots it
was quite easy. Many people from our slot got rejected. The questions were
conceptual, output based. You had to have enough coding experience to skim through
a code to get the idea of what it did since you won't have time to dry run the
program. You also need to have a general idea of standard questions like armstrong
number, perfect number etc. Since they trick us with those pseudo codes.

3) The Technical Interview round was moderate. First they ask you to tell about
yourself. They check your CV thoroughly and ask you from there. Don't lie on your
CV, you must be prepared to answer anything and everything related to what you have
put in your CV. They asked questions from DBMS, Algorithms, Software Engineering
and the subjects that you have put on your CV. Some of my friends was asked about
Collection Framework of Java and other tough questions.

They also ask HR questions in this round too. Questions like "Why should I hire
you?", What will you do for the company? etc.

4) The HR round was more of a formality. Though if the Technical Interview was not
too great, you will get grilled. But if your Technical was great then they will
just chat with you.

All of us who cleared Technical got selected.

My Advice: Show confidence, even if you don't feel like it. Keep eye contact
always. From my experience also be very careful about your selection process. If
you feel that some problem has occurred like for my case ask your TPO immediately
and don't give up.

I got the job but if I had gone home after not hearing my name after Aptitude test,
then I would have regretted it.

Best of Luck!

Hello guys,

So I was rejected by Accenture after clearing the aptitude test in the interview.
Then the next company coming to the college was Capgemini. I heard the news that
Capgemini have changed its aptitude pattern.

So the new pattern consists of Aptitude (Quants and Logical) and Essay writing.
Guys Aptitude section was very easy to crack just study RS Agarwal nothing else to
do. Next was essay writing..You have to write minimum 200 and maximum 240 words on
the given topic.

So after this we were asked to wait and 46 students out of 199 was shortlisted. The
sectional cutoff was high I think because the test was very easy. Then the next
round was technical aptitude. This round was little difficult and the paper
consists of C, Data structures, Algorithms (I/o,o/p),and digital logic.

So 28 students cleared this round. So after this there was technical aptitude. So I
was waiting for my number to come. So when I entered the interview room the
interviewer asked me to sit and told me to introduce myself.

Then he took my resume and asked me questions related to my projects and advanced
java questions. Guys they only focus on resume so you should be clear with your
resume. Then HR round, She asked me to introduce myself and some technical java
questions. Yes in the HR round also the interviewer were aaking tech questions.
Then typical hr questions like why Capgemini and relocation.

So finally 22 students got selected and I was one of them. So guys dont worry about
the new pattern just go through java, C, Dbms and data structures. And I want to
thank all the people who shared their interview experience. Thank you for reading.

After clearing the first round comes the pseudo code round in that round questions
related to C language, data structures and digital logic design were asked.

20 questions were asked in 20 minutes.
