WRITTEN TEST (MAJOR ELIMINATION TAKES PLACE, SO, CONCENTRATE MUCH ON THIS) 

I. APTITUDE
In this round, they asked 40 questions in 40 minutes which includes 

Two from Venn diagram, (easy)
One from probability,
3*3 Sudoku like below, (very easy)
8 2
9

You have to fill the numbers from 1-9 in the boxes, such that it should  have 15 from top to bottom and across the diagonal, then you would have the box  as like the one below:
8 2 5
1 4 7
6 9 3

From this you might have questions like, summing up the numbers which are  right and left to the number 2. For us, three questions were asked from this:
 Some four questions were asked from the four different passages. One problem based on age. (easy) Three questions based on Speed and Distance.   One from permutation Percentage ( easy ) Few questions based on functions. (very easy one)

2. GROUP DISCUSSION 

CSC is mainly looking in your communication and how well you are confident at.  
These guys are giving chance to everyone in putting their own points. i.e., they  are conducting it in orderly fashion. She gave us: Should sex education be  included in academic of school children. I was the first to start the GD, so, I  went with the topic and No time was given to prepare. Results were immediately  announced. In my batch, only one got eliminated. 
So guys, be confident while  putting your points. GUYS dont initiate take time get some valid point then talk (100% fluency expect)
Topic:
Indian education system,valentans day,BPO services,About Bank etc....
but i got eliminated at this round they taken 10:1 ratio.. its not my Day...
but my friends are attend next round i had some remaining question forHR round....

3. TECHNICAL HR
Initially the HR was started with my project, I explained my project  entirely. And he raised few questions from that. I answered for all those. So,  you must have thorough knowledge of your project you had done.

Besides, he raised questions like difference between array and Linked list then  Stack, Queue from Data Structures, DBMS, and Operator Overloading, paging  concept from Operating System, few concepts from Mobile Computing and some more.  It took some 25-30 minutes for me.
Depending on the panel, you will get questions. You brush up all the concepts  from Data Structure, DBMS, Operating System and Programming Languages. 
If you are belonging to ECE, concentrate much on Microprocessor. (This info was  given by my friend).
You just give your answers if you are sure, otherwise, you say, sorry mam/sir,  at present, I could not recollect. Do not try to give related or fake answers. 

I hope this will help you. Have a nice day!

CSC visited BMSCE on 5/11/2008. It started wit ppt. Criteria 60% aggregate in Engg (B.E).

Aptitude paper was different for circuit branches (ECE, CS, TE, EE) and non circuit branches. 

This is all about circuit branches apti paper. No negative markings in apti. 

It has one apti paper (40 ques in 40 min) one tech paper includes C, C++, DBMS, Microprocessor 8085, microcontroller (75 ques in 45 min, all 75 ques repeated so please learn tech ques from previous year papers). Aptitude also most of them are repeated questions so learn from previous papers and learn following topics from RS Agarwal.
percentage.
average.
LR ques.etc.

It will be simple and try answering 20 out of 40 correctly. You will surely get through.


Hi Friends

I am in b.tech final year Electronics & Comm.. background

In the Written Test, We had separate papers for circuit and non-circuit branches

It has 2 parts:

- Quantitative Aptitude and Reasoning type questions
After some thinking, I found that all of them are reasoning questions from previous years CAT papers especially those small sets from around 2003-2006 CAT papers

- Technical is quite simple, prev papers helped a lot

They said GD would be there but not much time was available

Technical Interview:
They asked about Computer Networks, Operating Systems, C, Data structures
Not (m)any ECE questions

Computer Networks: about layers, expand OSI, in which layer packets are formed, etc.

Operating systems:  resource allocation, write bankers algorithm, safety algorithm, deadlocks, how to resolve them, conditions for dead lock etc.

C:   write progs for call by value, reference, whats the difference, etc.

DS:   different types, which is better stack or queue, applications of  both etc.

HR Interview:
Tell me abt urself, hobbies (I said reading books), which books u read, why did you read them, what do you know abt recession in US, do you write a bond, what did you like in the ppt, if your prev company offers more will you go and so on…

8) Some passages were there based on illegal drugs smuggling and based on this some questions.

9) Some Analogy Questions: some I do remeber like SYCOPHANTIC: FLATTER SILENT: QUIET others I dont remember.

10) Some questions based on
if f(x,0)=x+1
f(0,y)=y
f(x,y)=f(f(x,0),f(2*x-1))
then find f(1,1), f(2,3), f(3,0) etc and some relations based on this very easy

11) One question based on the average speed

12) One question based on Sudoku type very easy, u can do it in one attempt.

The Technical Round (Written Tech.)
It involved mainly questions from Pointers, Arrays, Networking, RDBMS, MICROPORCESSORS, MICROCONTROLLERS try to solve the previous question papres on Technical on C & C++. This section is tough and time taking, major elemination takes place in this round.

GD round
We were around 55 in numbers, divided into 9 groups approx in each 6 people. Our topic was "LOVE MARRIAGE AND ARRANGE MARRIAGE". We made the GD topic so hoarsing that the HR person was compelled to interrupt. From our group 3 were dropped. They see your way of talking mainly and your patience to stand in a queue to give your views and ideas.

After GD we were around 45 got shortlisted.

The Technical Round
He asked me about my CGPA, was a very decent man, an alumnus of our college. Which parts of programming are u strong at?
Then asked me about the Logic of Prime no, Bubble sorting, linked list, merge sort etc. (Basics), One logic based on the odd no I don't remember exactly.

The HR Round
Tell me something about yourself??
Family Back Ground?
What's your strengths and weakness?
Who keeps you motivating towards your goal?
Do you hv any other offers with you right now?
Why CSC?
Which Platform Do u want to work on?
Are you flexible about locations in India and outside India?
Thank you. Just wait out side for the results.

Results:
The result was declared around 2:30 AM in the midnight and around 22 of us B.Tech got selected and 3 of my branch including me. Most of them were form Comps.Engg.

Hope this post of entire process helps u in ur campus recruitment drive in your college when CSC visits your campus.

HI Friends

The Whole process of selection involved 5 stages:
1. General Aptitude
2. Technical Aptitude
3. GD
4. Technical Interview
5. HR Interview

I. General Aptitude (40 Qs, 40 mins)
This Section involved aptitude questions such as the following

1. Sudoku. you need to fill-up the table using the hint (addition of row, column, diagonal =15) and available cell values. its easy. if you figure it out, you can answer five questions correctly.

ALL THE BEST
Hi Friends

It was 18 Sep when CSC visted our college i.e BIET Jhansi. 5 people came on the whole....

We have to go through 5 rounds given below:
1. Aptitude
2. Technical Written
3. Communication round (including extempo)
4. Technical Interview
5. HR
NO NEGETIVE MARKING 

Aptitude 
It involve 140 question which include some English part also... numeric part was not so tough but it was very difficult to break english questions.... time limit was 1 hour.. after giving the aptitude round we waited for result.. out of 90, 36 cleared the aptitude. 

Technical Written
It involve 55 question to be completed in 1 hour. it has all the subject questions which we have studied in B.Tech Computer Science.... Data Structure, DBMS, comp Architecture, comp n/w, etc.. cut off was 23. I scored highest in CS and IT after giving technical round we waited for result 16 cleared the technical round..

Communication Round
After clearing the technical written we went for interview which first have communication round. main stress was given on fluency... so speak good one.. it also have an extempo in which one topic was given and we have to speak on that immediatly... I have cleared that round. 

Technical Interview
My technical interview was very long. it went for appox 50 min.

I: may i come in sir HR: yes sure.. I: Good evening sir

HR: very Good evening Ashish.. have a seat.. I sat he congratulated me for clearing my previous round. 
HR: tell me about ur self I: i told
HR: well...r u  familiar with C... I: yes 
HR: WAP to print a pattern
*
**
***
****
I wrote....in 1 min with no error 
HR: what is ur area of intrest... I: sir data Stucture 
Hr: ok... write aprogram to add a node to a link list? I wrote with output.. he was impressed and asked me can u write for doubly link list. I asked for paper he said let it be....
Hr: have done any project.. I: yes sir i have done a project in ASP.NET with C#. I explained my project. he asked me some coding i explained him...

HR: what it LAN? I:Answered..
HR: what is MAC? I:sorry sir.... 
HR: what is Modem? I:Answered..... then he passed me to HR round....

HR
he asked me about the enviorment i would like to work.. i satisfy the bond and condition.. my family background... and very special my hobbies and my achivement I have written in my resume. It was brilliant day for me as only 2 were finally selected. HR then called me and made an announcment that i was selected in CSC and asked me how will i celebrate the day. It was the most pleasant moment of my life to be placed in CSC. I was feeling great and top of the world...

Hi Friends

This is Madhuri I attended CSC in VIT on 31st Aug 2007. There are 5 rounds:
1 Aptitude
2 Technical (written)
3 Communications round
4 Hr
5 Technical interview

The compensation in CSC is Rs.3.00lacs per annum for MCA/B.Tech nd rs.3.14lacs for M.Tech as per the ppt till date nd 2 yrs bond.

Aptitude round: (40 questions --40 mins)
It consited of hights nd distances, ages, anology, fill in the blanks with appropriate words,derive conclusions nd problems on distance and speeds nd puzzles, etc

some questions are!!
1. A 3*3 blck is given and should be filled frm 1...9 they gave 3 numbers nd when coundted horizontally, vertically and diagnally they should sum 15. they gave nearly 7 questions on this blk really easy if u practice sudoku.

2. If x,y are 2 positive integers and they are derived as follows:
       f(0,y)=y+1.
       f(x,0)=x
       f(x,y)=f(x-1,f(0,y-1))
       f(0,0)=1
         then wats the value of f(3,0),f(1,2) etc nd hw f(1,2) can be derived in terms f(0,0),f(0,2),f(3,0)
              there 5 questions relating to this.

3. 1 question on ages i dont properly remember the questions

4.7 questions on anlogy, fill in the blanks

5.deriving conclusions 10 questions

Technical written: (55 questions 60 min)
There were 2 sets for cse and non cse. I am frm IT so these are topics asked in my set:
   1 Engineering mathematics-->2 questions
   2 Theory of computations-->1 question
   3 Computer organizations and architecture-->20 questions
   4 Digital logic-->2 or 3 questions
   5 Data structures-->8 qustions
   6 Compilers-->7 ques
  7 Mind test on personality-->5 questions
     
The test also includes operating systems, software engineering, general questions on sound cards some raid
it was tough

Communications test:
This is just cool walk...be bold they just ask hw do u make tea, wht u done if u suddenly get 2 crores, wht u do when u come 2 know u r going to die 2morrow, etc. I cant xplain much becoz i lost in this round.

I suffered a lot here because i didnt get correct pattern any where so i wanted to help others.
i Friends

This is the paper on General aptitude. This paper is very very important as far as ones selection is concerned. U have to be very fast and accurate and U have to score at least above 80 to be selected for interview. The criteria for the test was 60% throughout in 10th, 12th, grad and MCA upto iv sem. Here about 150 students sat for the test and 15 were short listed for the interviews. So U can see the degree of the competition. The company is good and work hard U can get through. Start practicing Mental ability from RS Agarwal Specially PUZZLES, NUMBER SERIES, MIRROR IMAGE, 3D and FIGURE SERIES. Though I am sending U the technical paper also but that will be available to almost all of U and so that is not so important for selection. Just attempt about 60 questions out of 75 in that paper.

GENERAL ABILITY - REASONING
No of ques : 100
Time : 40 minutes

This paper was divided into 7  sections:

1. Sequence figures : 10 questions
In this section U have to trace out the next figure in the given sequence OR find out the ODD figure from given four figures. This is very simple section and U can do it very easily.

2. Numerical Series : 15 questions
In this section U have to find the odd no in given series OR find the next no in the given series OR what comes in place of ? in a series. Practice this type of question from R.S  Agarwal.I remember only few question which I am trying to give below:
6 9 12 ? 6
6 ? 9 9 6
9 12 6 3 6
this is just the type of ques.It may not be the exact one.
U see that the sum of each row is 36. So ?=6.There were many ques of this type.
3 6 18 ? 7 8
1 2 6 6 3 2
This types if questions were there in which U have to find the no replacing ?....

3. Non verbal reasoning : 15 questions
Here U are given 4 squares figures (a,b,c,d) differing slightly in thickness of their sides Now U are given a few set of figures with some figures left out. These blanks are numbered 1 to 15. U have to fit one of the above given square figures in each blank. This is a very simple question and U can do it easily. 

4. Analytical Reasoning :15 Questions
This section contained questions as given in puzzle section of RS Agarwal. It contains 4 parts with 5,5,3,2 questions. Just do it with patience. Make tables and then U will easily answer the questions following it.. don't remember the exact question but I am sending approximately same question: 

(i).Four friends are given named Akansha, Anuska, Anisha, ... , ... Each of them live in a separate home and sleep on one bed. Akansha and Anuska have two extra beds, two of the house have green lawns while the rest have narrow porchs, One of the house has Airconditioner while the rest have fans. And so on.. Based on these informations five questions were asked like
What is the total no of beds in all houses?
ans:14(not sure!!just check it)
Who lives in the house with green lawn and with AC?
These type of questions are very simple.Just make the table and U will get all the answers

(ii).Five students and five subjects and given along with few information. Five questions are asked following the questions. This is a bit tricky do it in the end.

(iii).In a given knockout series England defeated Pakistan, Pakistan was defeated by Newzealand, India defeated both England and Newzealand.
Three very simple questions were asked like:
Who won the series? ans: India
Who didn't win a single match? ans: Pakistan
How many matches were played in total?

(iv). This is also very simple question.. U can answer it easily.

5. Spatial reasoning : 15 Questions
This question is similar to the MIRROR IMAGE part of RS Agarwal. A Figure is given and U have to identify the figure which "CANNOT BE" the mirror image of the given figure which can be rotated along any axis.

6. English aptitude : 15 Questions
This section contains two parts:
(i). 5 questions asking synonym of given words. (one of the word is quiet ans:silent)
(ii).10 questions aksing to identify words not similar in meaning to the given words. (one of the word is mutiny and the alternatives are 
a)uprising b)rebel c)revolt,d).... answer:b )

7. 3D reasoning : 15 Questions
This section contained questions in which a 3 dimentional figure is given and U have to judge how it would look from the side indicated in the question like from below, from back etc. Also there are questions in which a sheet is given with marks on it along which it can be folded. U have to judge from the given option the three dimentional structure which can be build by folding the sheet along the given lines.

BEST OF LUCK

Hello Friends

I took a test for CSC nd wud like to share my experience. First there was an aptitude test, you were supposed 2 clear dat test before u cud go for further rounds.

In the Aptitude test there were 40 ques nd you were given 40 minutes
3 ques on time speed distance....there are 2 stataions A nd B....the distance between them is 150 km.... slow train covers dat distance in 2.5 hrs nd fast train in 1.5 hrs....now slow train leaves station A half an hour befor fast train....after wat time wud dey meet....nd at wat distance from(language was different)

dere was 1 ques on profit....calculate d CP of 1 hen nd den SP of 1 hen after dat profit on 1 hen....den an amount of profit was given u hd 2 calculate d no. of hens dat give dat amount of profit

By... Akshay Gupta
Hi Friends

I am Kavita Gupta, placed in CSC recently on 14th July 2006 so I m sharing my experience of CSC and whtever I remember abt questions. I remember only those questions wich vr aksed from me and as ther r many questions interview was very long so i m posting questions subjectwise

NETWORKS
1) whn u open web browser, thn wht will happen wht do u do first thing?
2) wht u write first thing, i said DNS or webaddress concept thtn he asked complete web adress like i told
thn he asked meaning of each word-http, www, com etc
3) wht is URL
4) tell complete procedure how a site opens after opening explorer
5) other layers understand DNS or not if not thn wht will happen (concept of mapping to ip adress comes here) thy asked how mapping takes place and at wich layer
6) DNS procedure use wht TCP/IP or OSI
7) how many layers in tcp/ip and wich layers are extra in osi model
8) tcp/ip conection oriented or conectionless
9) wht is DNS he was trying to ask in detail but as i havnot read so i said tht
10) wht is U
11) wht is RARP
12) wht is ATM (asynchronous mode transfer) 

DBMS
1) wht is primary key
2) if ther is no primary key how will u uniquely identify each tuple (i said composite key or super key)
3) diff between tuple and attribute
4) wht r anomalies explain each in detail (like insertion anomaly deletion and modification anomaly)
5) wht is foreign key constraint
6) if i want to delete a tuple from a table having reference in so other table thn wht will happen (concept of cascade comes else error)
7) wht r triggers explain
8) if i want to hav som tuples havind null value wht to do (outer join)
9) wht if i join two tables and no primary key (spurious tuples generate redundant data)
10) he asked me wht will u do if need to retrieve this so basically query
and select first four tuples
select *
from employee
where salary
thn apply rownum<=4 to select first four tuples
11) diff betweenoracle 9i and oracle 8
12) diff between DBMS, RDBMS, ORDBMS 

OS
1) wht is OS
2) wht is a process
3) diff between process and thread
4) if threads share data section wht will happen (concept of semaphore and crtitcal section comes so )
5) wht is semaphore
6) wht other thing semaphore do except synchronisation
7) wht else happen in threads and process so deadlock concept comes
8) deadlocks, and i told abt 4 conditons of deadlocks also
9) in os wher do u use stacks and queues
(like stacks for saving process state, on system call context switch etc and queue in scheduling so he asked do we hav only fifo scheduling)
10) so types of scheduling 

Data Structure
1) u hav fifteen boxes in kitchen and ur mom asked u to make foos for 1 month, wht will u do to make food fast (the concept of sorting came)
i said i will put name tag on boxes and thn sort thm in ascending order or i can put thm in order of color shade firstly lightest and thn little darker and soon but tht can create confusion so first is better way
2)u hav 1000 names in unorder manner and i asked u to pick any name of my choice randomly and thn giv me complete info of tht person so wht ds will u use
i said firstly i will sort thm thn i will use hashing/btrees as thy r faster in decreasing search domain, thy asked wich sort will u use
i said radix as good for strings, he asked if one more name increase or decrease i said radix sort take linear time so doesnot affect much on time
he said if names r vary in length like one is venkateshraman other is raj i said sort from 3rd last letter or use padding.
3) wht is heapsort, concept. wher u can apply it
4) wht all ds u know 
i said heaps binomial fiboncaai, liked list stacks queues trees arrays etc
5) advantage and disadvantage of linked list and array over each other in temrs of memory allocation
6) insert and delete a node in a linked list write a code(not from me)

basically thy asked all application based question on data structure 

JAVA/ C/ C++
1) he write a java code of swapping to name via calling object as parameter and asked whther result will reflect in main or not
(as object passed as a reference so reuslt will be reflected)
2) in java we use call by reference or call by value
3) wht r interfaces
4) diff between interfaces and abstraction

NOTE
- before going for interview i hav heard tht thy ask ur fav subject note tht and thn asked ques accordingly but today thy start taking interview without asking any fav subjects from all of us
- so be prpeared for DBMS, OS, DS, JAVA, Networks and C/C++ (little bit)
- n/w questions vr all concept based no theory thy just want to see how things happen
- either u'll go offcampus or oncampus thy take 35 minutes to 1 hr interview of each person). mine was 35 minutes so u can see no of ques asked think abt my frnd whose interview was of complete 1 hr even whn we vr oncampus 
Hi Friends

I m Mohan, recently placed in CSC and i wana share questions wich i remember abt ppr, with u all

in written thy giv two tests:-
1) Quant/aptitude/Logical ppr 40ques in 40minutes
2) Technical test 75question in 40min

GENERAL ABILITY - REASONING 
 
This is the paper on General aptitude.This paper is very very important as far as ones selection is concerned. U have to be very fast and accurate and U have to score at least above 80 to be selected  for interview.

The criteria for the test was 60% throughout in 10th,12th, grad and MCA upto iv sem. Here about 150 students sat for the test and 15 were shortlisted for the 
interviews. So U can see the degree of the competition.The company is good and work hard U can  get through.

Start practising Mental ability from RS Agarwal Specially PUZZLES, NUMBER 
SERIES, MIRROR IMAGE, 3D and FIGURE SERIES. 
Though I am sending U the technical paper also but that will be available to almost all of U and so that is not so important for selection. Just attempt about 60 questions out of 75 in that paper. 
 
GENERAL ABILITY - REASONING 
 
NO of ques : 100 
Time : 40 minutes 
This paper was divided into 7(seven) sections: 

1. Sequence figures : 10 questions 
In this section U have to trace out the next figure in the given sequence OR find out the ODD figure from given four figures. This is very simple section and U can do it very easily. 

2. Numerical Series : 15 questions 
In this section U have to find the odd no in given series OR find the next no in the given series OR what comes in place of ? in a series. 
Practice this type of question from R.S Agarwal. I remember only few question which I am trying to give below: 
6 9 12 ? 6 
6 ? 9 9 6 
9 12 6 3 6 
this is just the type of ques. It may not be the exact one.U see that the sum of each row is 36. 
So ?=6.There were many ques of this type. 
3 6 18 ? 7 8 
1 2 6 6 3 2 
This types if questions were there in which U have to find the no replacing ?.... 

3. Non verbal reasoning : 15 questions 
Here U are given 4 squares figures (a,b,c,d) differing slightly in thickness of their sides. Now U are given a few set of figures with some figures left out.These blanks are numbered 1 to 15. U have to fit one of the above given square figures in each blank. This is a very simple question and U can do it easily. 

4. Analytical Reasoning :15 Questions 
This section contained questions as given in puzzle section of RS Agarwal. It contains 4 parts with 5,5,3,2 questions.Just do it with patience.Make tables and then U will easily answer the questions following it.. 
I don't remember the exact question but I am sending approximately same question: 
(i).Four friends are given named Akansha,Anuska,Anisha, ... , ... .Each of them live in a separate home and sleep on one bed. Akansha and Anuska have two extra beds, two of the house have green lawns while the rest have narrow porchs, One of the house has Airconditioner while the rest have fans.And so on.. Based on these informations five questions were asked like 
What is the total no of beds in all houses? 
ans:14(not sure!!just check it) 
Who lives in the house with green lawn and with AC? 
These type of questions are very simple.Just make the table and U will get all the answers
(ii).Five students and five subjects and given along with few information. Five questions are asked following the questions.This is a bit tricky do it in the end. 
(iii).In a given knockout series England defeated Pakistan,Pakistan was defeated by Newzealand, India defeated both England and Newzealand. 
Three very simple questions were asked like: 
Who won the series? ans: India 
Who didn't win a single match? ans: Pakistan 
How many matches were played in total? 
(iv). This is also very simple question..U can answer it easily. 

5. Spatial resoning : 15 Questions 
This question is similar to the MIRROR IMAGE part of RS Agarwal.A Figure is given and U have to identify the figure which "CANNOT BE" the mirror image of the given figure which can be rotated along any axis. 

6. English aptitude : 15 Questions 
This section contains two parts: 
(i). 5 questions asking synonym of given words. (one of the word is quiet ans:silent) 
(ii).10 questions aksing to identify words not similar in meaning to the given words. (one of the word is mutiny and the alternatives are a)uprising b)rebel 
c)revolt,d).... answer:b ) 

7. 3D reasoning : 15 Questions 
This section contained questions in which a 3 dimentional figure is given and U have to judge how it would look from the side indicated in the question like from below, from back etc. 

Also there are questions in which a sheet is given with marks on it along which it can be folded. U have to judge from the given option the three dimentional structure which can be build by folding the sheet along the given lines
CSC Interview Procedure  
 
there were 5 rounds(knockout) in CSC (June 2004 Indore) 
if u clear first round u go into second and so on 
1 Aptitude test 
2 Technical test 
3 Group speaking 
4 Tech intervu 
5 HR intervu 
i was able to reach HR intervu 

1 Aptitude Test 
very very easy question(100 question in 25 minutes) 
so only important thing is speed; questions r really easy just u need 2 read them and u can mark the answer. so how fast u read is also important 
no need to preparation if u have (atleast) an average IQ 

2 Technical Test 
75 question in 30 minutes 
so again speed matters nearly 35-37 question were from previous pprs 
9-10 question were from elex and electrical bkgrnd so it is hard to solve them follow ur intution 

3 Group Speaking 
somewhat like GD(but not GD) 
coz in this each person will get chance to speak in round robin order. u have to speak mininum 30sec and max 1 minute. I got the topic SONIA AS P.M. 
there were 13 in my grp 7 got through (in fact in each round they eliminate half the candidate) 

GS TIPS 
1 dont make eye contact with the HR person 
2 dont speak what the others have said say some new point (the poor guy on the last ) 
3 u shld b grammiticaly correct and fluent 
4 always start with a welcome note like (good morning to all) 
5 if u r in the last try 2 conclude the discussion 
6 smile (all these points carry marks ive seen there score sheet) 

4 Tech Intervu 
they write down the subjects from ur CV and also asks ur fav subjects and grills u on each of these but they ask very simple questions 
(wht is CTOR DTOR VIRTUAL FUNC /DEADLOCK MUTUAL EXCLUSION 
STARVATON/project) 
u need 2 b cool and confident 
one thing 2 remember in this intervu (infact in all tech intervus of any company) that dont try 2 disguise. if u dont know anythin say straight that i dont know 
or I can try but i dont know it exactly 

5 HR interview 
typical but wht they expect i dont know coz this intervu of mine was the best i ve given till date (7 intervu/ got 3 offers) but i wasnt selected 
(i think the reason is that after all these rounds they take ur % or grade into consideration coz the guy who was selected had 84% and i had 68% 
but I may b wrong or another mistake that i did that I oversold myself) 
(350 appeared initilly in 1st round /13 reached to HR /6 selected finally) 

DECLARATION the pattern or paper might b differnt in ur college/walkin i m not responsible 4 that. the tips may or may not work 4 u. one thing more if u get offer from CSC accept it coz this company is the best (atleast in india) to work with. Package is superb (we were told 25000/- pm )and u have the chance to go abroad very soon in this company.

CSC is mainly looking in your communication and how well you are confident at.  These guys are giving chance to everyone in putting their own points. i.e., they  are conducting it in orderly fashion. She gave us: Should sex education be  included in academic of school children. I was the first to start the GD, so, I  went with the topic and No time was given to prepare. Results were immediately  announced. In my batch, only one got eliminated. So guys, be confident while  putting your points. 

3. TECHNICAL HR
Initially the HR was started with my project, I explained my project  entirely. And he raised few questions from that. I answered for all those. So,  you must have thorough knowledge of your project you had done.

Besides, he raised questions like difference between array and Linked list then  Stack, Queue from Data Structures, DBMS, and Operator Overloading, paging  concept from Operating System, few concepts from Mobile Computing and some more.  It took some 25-30 minutes for me.
Depending on the panel, you will get questions. You brush up all the concepts  from Data Structure, DBMS, Operating System and Programming Languages. 
If you are belonging to ECE, concentrate much on Microprocessor. (This info was  given by my friend).
You just give your answers if you are sure, otherwise, you say, sorry mam/sir,  at present, I could not recollect. Do not try to give related or fake answers. 

4. PERSONAL INTERVIEW
Once you get into this round, you can stay relaxed.  He asked me  the general questions like,

Tell me about yourself: 
I said my name, college, and aggregate, achievements (Paper presentation,  Organized Women's day, Basket ball). He was really impressed and asked me how  did u celebrate women's day? Then I explained that too.

Why should I hire you?
I said, I think I do have all the qualities to perform a job in a better  way.
He asked what the qualities are.
Then I replied with sincerity, dedication, and commitment towards the work.

What do you know about CSC?
I was busy preparing for technical and I could not go through the website,  but, before that interview my friend said few points about it.
While I saying so, he asked me how do you get this information? (I don't know  whether my friend said the same thing before.)
But, I do not like to lie, so I said him, I gathered from my friends. 
Once you get info about recruiting process, you please go through that company  website.

Then he asked whether you are comfort when you are relocated to different  locations and night shifts, I confidently said, Yes sir.

At last he asked me to wait till 4 p.m by the next day. 
My interview started on 17th June nearly at 9.30 a.m and I had completed my HR  at 9.30 p.m. I was waiting the whole day on 18th June for results and my name  was announced at 9.30 p.m. It was the most wonderful experience. 

Guys be honest, confident and success will be yours. GOOD LUCK!!!!!!!!! SEE  YOU AT CSC!!!!!!!

CSC Placement Paper Pattern (Reasoning)



This is the paper on General aptitude. This paper is very very important as far as ones selection is concerned. U have to be very fast and accurate and U have to score at least above 80 to be selected for interview. The criteria for the test was 60% throughout in 10th,12th, grad and MCA upto IVth sem.Here about 150 students sat for the test and 15 were short listed for the interviews. So U can see the degree of the competition.The company is good and work hard U can get through. Start practicing Mental ability from RS Agarwal Specially PUZZLES,NUMBER SERIES,MIRROR IMAGE,3D and FIGURE SERIES. Though I am sending U the technical paper also but that will be available to almost all of U and so that is not so important for selection.Just attempt about 60 questions out of 75 in that paper.

GENERAL ABILITY - REASONING
NO of ques : 100
Time : 40 minutes

This paper was divided into 7(seven) sections:
1. Sequence figures : 10 questions
In this section U have to trace out the next figure in the given sequence OR find out the ODD figure from given four figures. This is very simple section and U can do it very easily.

2. Numerical Series : 15 questions
In this section U have to find the odd no in given series OR find the next no in the given series OR what comes in place of ? in a series. Practice this type of question from R.S Agarwal.I remember only few question which I am trying to give below:
6 9 12 ? 6
6 ? 9 9 6
9 12 6 3 6
this is just the type of ques.It may not be the exact one.
U see that the sum of each row is 36. So ?=6.There were many ques of this type.
3 6 18 ? 7 8
1 2 6 6 3 2
This types if questions were there in which U have to find the no replacing ?....

3. Non verbal reasoning : 15 questions
Here U are given 4 squares figures (a,b,c,d) differing slightly in thickness of their sides Now U are given a few set of figures with some figures left out.These blanks are numbered 1 to 15.U have to fit one of the above given square figures in each blank.This is a very simple question and U can do it easily.

4. Analytical Reasoning :15 Questions
This section contained questions as given in puzzle section of RS Agarwal.It contains 4 parts with 5,5,3,2 questions.Just do it with patience.Make tables and then U will easily answer the questions following it.. don't remember the exact question but I am sending approximately same question:

(i).Four friends are given named Akansha,Anuska,Anisha, ... , ... .Each of them live in a separate home and sleep on one bed.Akansha and Anuska have two extra beds,two of the house have green lawns while the rest have narrow porchs,One of the house has Airconditioner while the est have fans.And so on.. Based on these informations five questions were asked like
What is the total no of beds in all houses?
ans:14(not sure!!just check it)
Who lives in the house with green lawn and with AC?
These type of questions are very simple.Just make the table and U will get all the answers

(ii).Five students and five subjects and given along with few information.Five questions are asked following the questions.This is a bit tricky do it in the end.

(iii).In a given knockout series England defeated Pakistan,Pakistan was defeated by Newzealand, India defeated both England and Newzealand.
Three very simple questions were asked like:
Who won the series? ans: India
Who didn't win a single match? ans: Pakistan
How many matches were played in total?

(iv). This is also very simple question..U can answer it easily.

5. Spatial reasoning : 15 Questions
This question is similar to the MIRROR IMAGE part of RS Agarwal.A Figure is given and U have to identify the figure which "CANNOT BE" the mirror image of the given figure which can be rotated along any axis.

6. English aptitude : 15 Questions
This section contains two parts:
(i). 5 questions asking synonym of given words. (one of the word is quiet ans:silent)
(ii).10 questions aksing to identify words not similar in meaning to the given words. (one of the word is mutiny and the alternatives are
a)uprising b)rebel c)revolt,d).... answer:b )

7. 3D reasoning : 15 Questions
This section contained questions in which a 3 dimentional figure is given and U have to judge how it would look from the side indicated in the question like from below,from back etc. Also there are questions in which a sheet is given with marks on it along which it can be folded.U have to judge from the given option the three dimentional structure which can be build by folding the sheet along the given lines .
