The most frequently asked question by those who come out of the college is "Whether I get a job immediately"? Most of the freshers come out of college is raw and they should ask themselves that "Do I meet the demand of the industry?". Getting a job in the current scenario is not easy for those, who do not do their basic home work properly.
- The candidate should satisfy the minimum marks cut off for example 75%
- The candidate should have good communication skills
- The candidate should possess very good analytical skills
- Most importantly the candidate should be ready to sign the bond for minimum of 2 years.
If a candidate feels he fulfills the first criteria of 75%, the next immediate step will be to attend the walk ins and compete in the open competition with their peers. The most disturbing part is, in all the walk ins, the number of people attend the interview is more than the expected numbers by the companies. So the companies need to fine tune their filtering criteria. In the event, they will conduct quick interviews with the candidates. What are the questions that will be asked in the above interview?
- Tell me about yourself?
- Which college you studied?
- What is your achievements in the college?
- Some interviewers will ask the basic software questions in C language.
- Some companies will ask the candidates to write the C programs like
- Write a program to reverse a string
- Write a program to check if the word is a palindrome
- Write a program to count the words in the given sentence
- Write a program to count the vowels in the given sentence
- Write a program to swap the contents of the variable without using the third variable.
- Find if the input number is a prime number
Those who pass out the written test, there will few levels of interviews. HR executives will line up to interview the short listed students. Most of the HR executives will evaluate your attitude, dedication, handling challenging situations, are you a team man? So the questions will be based on the above criteria. The candidates should be well prepared for the tough questions. While answering one should be honest and true to oneself before answering. Keep in mind, one should not put unnecessary pressure on oneself and panic when answering to the tough questions. The HR Manager/Executives trying to find out how a candidate is able to address the challenges.
Getting the job does not mean that the career is secured. Job sustenance is a most important aspect after getting a job. First one year in a company will be a phase of learning. How does the company train people. Don't expect a three year old experience guy will sit next to you and teach programming. You will be given lot of manuals and scenarios to work with. One should use their own learning skills to master the subject. The author of this blog suggest to do a <a href="http://www.facebook.com/southerninfosystems">professional training</a> before joining a job which will save lot of time and it is easy to impress the superiors in the job. The company also will think of putting a fresher in to the real time project very early after joining the job. During training, there will be phases of evaluation by the superiors. If the trainee do not show improvement, he will be made to warm the bench for a long time. Getting into the real time project is delayed and make to sit in bench for a longer period say 1 year.
