HCl technologies pattern & interview

I attended the HCL Technologies’ test conducted by the SHREDSKERALA at Alwaye UC college. Earlier I had attended the Siemens test and didn’t qualify for interview. HCL test contains following categories.
1) C 20 questions
2) C++ 20 questions
3) General computer awareness 10 questions
4) SQL 10 questions
5) Aptitude 20 questions

There was no -ve Marking. For non computer stream students the test is a hurdle. Prepare C & C++ very well. Go through SQL bascis it will help. For Aptitude refer Quantitative Aptitude by RS Aggarwal.

I am an ECE student and found technical stuff in the paper quite tough. I attempted Aptitude part first and then language part. I made some calculated risks and it paid off. I was short listed along with about 300 others. The interview was scheduled for following day at hotel Avenue Regent.

The Technical Interview panel consisted of a pleasant looking guy. He took me to his room and introduced himself.
