Zensar Interview Experience ( On Campus )

 Hello Readers, I would like to share my personal Zensar Interview Experience with the hope of helping you. From the day when I joined my college, I had the dream to start my carrier with a growing company where I could get an opportunity to utilize my abilities & skills.

About Zensar : 

Zensar Technologies Limited is an Indian publicly traded software and services company. The company's stock trades on the Bombay Stock Exchange and on the National Stock Exchange of India under the ticker symbol ZENSARTECH. A subsidiary of RPG Group, the company's chairman is Forbes-listed billionaire Harsh Goenka.

My Experience : 

First, the PPT i.e. Pre Placement talk took place in that they told us about their selection criteria, Zensar, and of course the most important thing about the package they are offering us.

The selection procedure consists of 4 rounds

1) Written-test

2) GD

3) Technical Interview

4) HR Interview

The written test comprised of three sections : 

1) English + Quantitative + Logical reasoning (30 questions)

2) Technical (C & C++) (20 questions)

3) SQL + DBMS (10 questions)

The test was very tough and maximum elimination is done in this round only. It was an online test and there was sectional timing i.e we need to finish the section in the given time.   Amongst the above sections, only English and quantitative questions were easy others were tough. For general English consult (barren). For quantitative aptitude consult (R.S. Aggarwal) and for technical (prepare o/p questions)

A total of 400 students appeared approximately and 150 cleared the written test and shortlisted for the GD. I was one of them I'd given the test at 1:30 and the result was announced at 6 pm. I was the 5th highest scorer in the aptitude.

Group Discussion:

Later we were sent to a room for GD. GD was conducted among the group of 10 candidates. We were first asked to decide a topic ourselves. Later she(HR) herself suggested a topic "Younger generation are smarter than their parents".   The topic was easy and most of the people spoke on it. HR gave chance to each candidate who was not able to speak. Result declared after 45 mins I was on the list of those 10 people from our group. My group consists of the top 12 scorers of aptitude. Hence they selected 6 out of 10 in GD.   This was the highest from any group from most of the other group they selected 4-5 out of 10 in each group. So score well in aptitude. I was very happy because I was for the first time gonna face a technical interview. From 150 candidates they selected 85 for TI.

Technical Interview:  

Technical Interview was on the next day ie 15th August at 10:00 am. My Technical Interview started at noon. The interviewer was a very decent but serious guy.

* Tell me about yourself

* Told.

* Explain about a paper presentation you had given

* Explained (actually I'd won the prize in PPT and told this in my intro)

* What is the security (as my ppt topic was 'SECURITY IN Wi-Fi')

* What are the threats to security?

* What you will do to provide security?

* Which are the most important areas requiring security?

* What you have prepared?

* I told C and SQL

* What is the array

* How will you declare and initialize 2D and 3D arrays?

* Write a prog to print "HELLO WORLD" without using a semicolon.

* Write a prog to swap two numbers without using 3rd variable.

* Explain pointers? where it is used?

* How memory is initialized in pointer?

* He showed me 4 to 5 C programs to tell the output.

* Different between call-by-value and call-by-add?

* Write anyone prog using both call-by-value and call-by-add.

* What is DBMS?

* What is SQL?

* He had a different table and asked me to write 8-10 queries?

* Although he asked quite tough queries which require a comb of 4-5 tables. I answered all as I had good prep of SQL.

* What is Normalization.

* What is 1NF,2NF,BCNF etc.   

* I told him it was in 3rd yr and I can't recall it now.

* Difference between multiprogramming and multitasking?

I answered most of the questions and the major thing was my confidence. I never felt this is 1st interview of my life. If you don't know any answer simply say you can't recall but don't cheat them, they are very smart.

This round lasts for around 40 -45 mins.

I came out of the room and the volunteer told me in just a min that I got past the TI and, now came the time for the HR interview: Out of 75, only 40 cleared TI.

HR Interview:

Normal Questions:

* Why Zensar?

* What are your strengths?   * Why should I select you?

* Two good and bad things about your college?

* If I give you one million rupees what will be the 1st thing you do?

* About family?

* Example where you worked in grp?

* What extracurricular you been part of?

My HR interview was excellent but still, I was very eager to see the result but the result was declared after 3 days.

Only 30 candidates were finally selected and I was one of them. Now is the time for Party.

Finally, I will say, if you are not selected don’t worry because  “after every sad day there comes the glad day”.

Before Zensar I appeared for Persistent and Patni. But my destiny was somewhere else and finally, I found it.

All the best to all aspirants and see you in Zensar.
