TECH MAHINDRA Paper Pattern and Interview @ Mandya On 21st July 2008

The Selection Procedure:
1.Online test:
there were totally 100 questions and the time given was 60 minutes.
The questions were divided into 6 parts.
three of them were English sections. One was for non-verbal reasoning, one was for verbal [shal]reasoning [/shal]and the other was of quantitative aptitude. There was a sectional cut off for all the sections. So, don’t leave any section.
The paper was easy overall. First attempt the English section. It was very easy. then move on to the logical and aptitude sections.
In our college, out of 185,37 got selected for the interviews.

2.Interviews:
There were 3 [shal]interviews[/shal] for us:
-HR cum technical interview
-Technical interview
-HR interview

In the first interview, they asked very simple questions such as the stack concept, use of “%d”, use of getch() and the command to drop a table in DBMS.
Please go through the company website. One of the most frequently asked questions is “Why Tech mahindra?”
So, please tell some facts about TM.

The second interview was the [shal]technical interview[/shal].
As i had mentioned that DBMS was my subject of interest, he asked me questions about it. He asked me questions about normalization, RDBMS, trigger and the use of null pointer. So, be prepared thoroughly in the subject if you mentioned it in your resume. And instead of telling wrong answers, tell the interviewer that you don’t know the answer if you don’t have any idea about the answer.

The third was a pure HR interview.
The first question was “Tell me about your family in brief?”
some other questions were
“Tell me about your hobbies and interests?”
“Are you ready to go to any place specified by us?”
“Why tech mahindra?”
“Why did you choose computer science?”
“What are your short term and long term goals?”
So overall, all the 3 interviews went quite smoothly. The interviewers were quite cool. So, just be confident and you will definitely make it through.
BEST OF LUCK TO EVERYONE.
HOPE TO SEE YOU AT TECH MAHINDRA!!
