SATYAM PATTERN & INTERVIEW - 16 AUG 2007 - MYLAVARAM

Hi Friends

Iam Lalitha.y. I am here to share my experience in Satyam recruitment process. I am from MIC college of technology pursing MCA final year. I attended through JKC conducted at LBRCE Mylavaram

Satyam pattern :
1.Written test (aptitude,reasoning,simple program)
2.GD (Elimination Process)
3.Technical (20 to 30min)
4.HR (For me it is 2min)

Written consists 20 questions with negative marking. My sensior advice is don't make any guess. Written was conduted on Aug 16 (2007) only for students of Krishna Dt.

GD was conducted on Sep 11 (2007) for Krishna and Guntur dt students. GD process is also easy if u speak  confidently. While speaking don't see the selector. It creates bad impression. while other person is speaking look at the speaker.

Use simple & clear English. If possible try Initaite or conclude the topic. Initiation should be taken only if u are clear about topic. If u don't know the topic allow others to initiate then u will get some idea. Among 630 students they selected 230 from GD process.

My GD topic was "Brain Drain". I have some idea about topic but i am not the intiator. I started second. I took chance 5 to 6 times. Nobody will give chance for us we have to take. Don't argue or question anyone in the group. It is about 10min.

GD Topics:
1.Brain drain
2.Impact of wester culture on Indian Culture
3.Is china threat for Indian IT
4.Involvement of politians in sports
5.Current affairs
6.old India Vs new India
7.Terrorism
8.Reservations
9.love marriage Vs arrange marriages

After completion of GD essay writing will be there to test our writing skills. don't bother about that it just to appraise our writing skills.

In Technical they concentrate only on basics (C, C++, DBMS, OS, Unix). For non computer students (C,OS) and their core subjects. First wish the interviewer with a smiling face.

Questions asked me are about tell me about urself, compiler, assembler, what is os, functionality of os, difference b/w structured & oops, oops feartures, what is dbms, normal forms, Unix commands.

If u don't know the answer say sorry sir. Among 230, 111 r completed tech.

In HR they ask tell me about urself, hobbies and they give feedback of our performance through out the process. Finally 105 tsudents r selected and I am one among them.
