Tue, 02/16/2010 - 10:13 — admin

Hi frnds,

I am Muni Sekhar from Sullurpet(Nellore Dt,AP). I am working in virtusa from 18th Jan 10. I would
like to share my selection process experience at virtusa with u.

I received hall ticket through e-mail from virtusa on 1st Dec afternoon and asked me to attend for the
written test on the next day. I came immediately to Hyd from my home town and i directly went to
westly school (near paradise,hyd) from secunderabad rly stn. Then i came to know that Merit Trac
people are conducting this exam. And 2000+ members attended the exam (only B.Tech CSE, B.Tech
CSIT, MCA) The merit trac people will check the 10th,Intermediate,UG/PG certificates and then allow
to the examination hall

The paper is about 2 and a half hour. It is for 120 marks. It has 5 sections in written exam itself.
It will have Verbal Ability, Apptitude, Mental & logical thinking Ability, Technical Qns (C,Unix),
Reading(Grasping) Ability. and the cutoff for the examnination is 65 marks i think.

In verbal ability::::::: They will give synonyms, antonyms, words( articles), correct the sentense's &
paragraph's etc.

In Apptitude:::::::::::: They will give easy qns. It will be easy if we are thorough with RSAgarwal

In Mental Ability::::::::They will try to confuse us, but if we r cool minded, we can do well

In Technical Ability::::: Unnecessary code will be given to waste time, do small things first and go for
huge codes and it will be easy as C,Unix will be in this round. But this round has more
weightage/marks. So concentrate on this round.

In Reading ability::::: we will be given a 3 page material and 10 minutes time to read that.The time
they will give for this round will not be sufficient, even though we have to do that. Then afterwards,
they will take the material and give us 10 qns on that material, we have to ans those qns by
rememberence.

Then after the exam, they told us that the results will be announced on monday(4th Dec) for the
people who are selected and for the people who are not selected also. But i didnt receive any mail
from them on monday, tuesday. Then on tuesday night i planned to go back to my native place within
2 days. On wednesday morning i received a mail asking to attend the further selection process of
virtusa. Please remember your roll number for the test.

I attended Group Discussion (Topic::: Should we ban mobile phones in school,colleges) and did well. I
started the discussion, did well (used all the GD tips,managerial skills etc)and ended it. Then I
attended the Technical round. It is two panel(male and female), male is Sr S/w Engg(SSE) and female
is QA(Testing) lead(QAL).

The first qns to me was "Tell me about yourself" (Routine qns any where) I answered it. Then the SSE
asked me to write a prog. I did it Then QAL asked me to explain few logics, i explained one logic in
routine way and the second logic in a different way. Then they asked me to explain the logic
elaboratedly. I explained it very well. then they got good imppression on me( i think).

Then they asked me few qns on C, oops concets etc and then the QAL asked me abt white box,black
box testing etc related to testing. i said that i dont know any thing abt testing. She asked me like
this.....

QAL:: If there are opening only in QA and if u were asked to join, Will u join QA?

Me:: I said yes (because i want a job, either development/QA)

QAL:: u dont know any thing abt testing and u are very well performing in languages etc, then will u
be able to learn the things so quickly in the training progs and can u deleiver us the expected
results??

ME:: yes, surely. As i said u, one among my strenghts are "fast learning ability". i can learn well in
training and will do well further also.

QAL:: ok fine, after one and a half year, if u are given flexibility to move towards development, will u
move or be in QA itself

Me: If that flexibility is given, i will move to development

QAL:: In this 1 and a half year u will be doing well in QA and u may be lagging in developmenta na?
then how will u be able 2 do well in development?

Me:: (I said a small ex, like this... i showed the door beside me and said like this..) Theif will unlock
the door without exact key. and if that thief is given a chance to prepare the lock and key, he will do it
perfectly in such a way that, no other theif can unlock it. Just like that if a tester comes to
development and writes a code, the code will be in such a way that no other tester can find any bugs
in it. So that way i can be a good developer, even though i ma with 1.5 yrs expereienced in testing
and away from development.

QAL,SSE::: ok thats really great ans.

QAL:: Do u have any qns to us?

Me:: i asked a small qns regarding hyd virtusa center (bcoz, we have ask qns, when we are given a
chance.That will say that we are eager to know things when we got a chance)

QAL:: replied.

Then after an hour they asked me to fill some buch of papers

Then i attended HR interview. It is one panel only

1st qns: HR(He is PM itseams):: Tell me abt yourself

Me:: (i said)

HR:: (he noted down the extracurricular, achievements, my web sites URL etc etc in the bunch of
papers, according to the columns in it, by moving on to page to page)
2nd qns: HR::What is your career objective?

Me:: (I said)

3rd qns: HR:: Do u have any qns to me?

Me:: Sir, how is my performance till now?

HR:: Well.......U've got selected man. (offered shake hand)

Me:: Thank you sir (Shake hand)

Then the Associate HR Exceutive came to me and asked me to collect my offer letter on 15th and on
15th i was asked to join on 18th.

totally out of 2000+ candidates, 100 to 110 are selected in written exam, out of them 63 are finally
selected and we are now in training. From 18th Dec to 18th Jan we 63 are trained on c+
+,unix,dbms,SE (induction classes, entertainment classes in between, lot of fun, games etc etc)and on
jan 18th we 63 are divided into Java, .Net,QA streams. now the training will be upto march ending ( I
think).

So to say abt virtusa... It is great to be here. we have good work culture, good package, good take
homes, quarterly paries etc etc, we celebrate our colleuges B'days etc and have fun all the time.

With Cheers......
Muni Sekhar.

(3) Mental Ability --- (very very very easy dont get confused) finding out the similar prononciation
words and decimal number's.)

(4) Technical Ability --- questions from C and UNIX (they eat away time ... plz attempt the small
questions first .. their main aim is to waste ur time .... so they give small questions at last be careful)

(5) Reading Ability --- they give a 3 pages document to read and understand and they take back the
paers and give us a question paper of abt 10 questions (read only once and very carefully.. because 3
papers in 10 min is tough.... remember the numbers and main key words and main theme of the
document )

II Round :- Group Discussion (conducted by the HR Team)

The topics given are very very casual. they just want to test whether every one is having their own
idea (it might be a single idea ) and are we able to talk when we are given a chance . please dont
copy the idea's .if u are also on the same idea just explain with current affair;s example . . our batch

just 10 minutes for the discussion of the topic . 600 seconds for 8 members's .... each member should
take only 75 seconds ( 600seconds /8members ) ... so i planned to interrupt into the discussion for 5
times and to talk for 15 seconds each time .

III Round :- Technical Interview (conducted by the HR Team)

This is a bit tough round . The interviewer asked about my Academic background and my interest on
subjects . He asked me the subjects i have covered in MCA course schedule and tried to cover all the
subjects with simple questions and testing our capability in answering the questions ...asked some live
examples for the answers. the session lasted for about 45 minutes. be confident on the subjects you
are interested.

IV Round :- HR Interview (conducted by the HR Team)

This is the Easiest Round we have to face. But be careful. Here the Key's to Success are CONFIDENT
and COMMUNICATION SKILLS. Be confident of wat u say. the questions are regular like.....

why sould we appoint u
y virtusa

His main Aim is to understand us by asking questions. so feel free to explore ur self to him in a good
way. dont be over confident. Be casual all the time. they ask questions relating to ur answer's after
some time ... so that to test whether u are telling truth or not. so be careful.

Try hard and do well for Selections. if u are Rejected dont get Disappointed. try the other company.
