Company Name : CSC (Computer Science Corporation)
Type : Fresher, Job Interview
Held on: June 2010

Hi friends, I am Dhivyaa. K.S from Ganadipathy Tulsi’s Engineering College, Vellore. Recently I

had appeared for off-campus interview conducted by ANNA UNIVERSITY PLACEMENT PROGRAMME on 17th &

18th June 2010 at Sai Ram Engineering College, Chennai and am very glad to say that I got

selected. Here I would like to share my interview experience with you.

* Aptitude
* Technical
* Group Discussion
* Technical HR
* Personal Interview

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)
