Placement Papers - Mahindra Satyam

SATYAM PATTERN - 15 NOV 2003 - DELHI

Hello Friends
I appered for satayam test on 15th nov, paper is same as has been sent by some persons, it was 15 qestions to be done in 30 min. in  gd we were given topic effect of movies on youth.

remember one thing its not that those who start the gd always get through.  In our batch one person started the gd by saying that we should not waste time, speek one by one etc etc but he didnot come to the point for long, i asked him not to waste time and come to the point. in gd try to express urself as if ur the leader. kepp saying, ya very true, thats the good point etc.

i cleared the gd but could not clear interview qestions were
1) if u can convince me why i should take u in satyam ur will be in satyam, i gave the ans and then he asked
2)do u think that its enough for me to take u in satyam, i said its upto u, but i should have given a better answer,
3)one qestion was if u have to measure the height of building without tape what will u do.
ans1  i know my height my shadow, i aill se how many my shadows make the shadow of bulding and heght can be calculated with raion

he asked what in noon.
ans2 drop a coin from top note the time or alternative
ans3  marke ur height on the boundery wall, measure the angle of elevation from boundery wall then measure the angle of elevation from the bulding, apply the right  anlge tringle ratio.

one more qestion that they asked from one another person why manholes are round? ans because a circle canot fall inside the circle, if it would have been suare or rectangle it may fall inside the manhole wfile opening it.

friends i was not prepared for hr qestions thats the major drawback, for interwievs always prepare all the qestions for hr before hand, dont think that u will think about them inside, prepare them thouroughly
