ACCENTURE PAPER ON 9th MARCH 2007 AT CHANDIGARH
1st hurddle is Aptitude.Dont worry about aptitude.Its simple and I can assure you even if you are average you can score well. The questions were very easy
Second Hurddle was group discussion.DANGEROUS one!!!!!! out of 374 only 80(app) get through.
GD was most disappointing moment for me as my two of my best buddies was not selected
Now THE important thing -> Try to Dominate the GD and as its going to be like fish market, try 2 calm them dowm by saying we are here for good not for one on one interaction and BLAH BLAH
After this they gave us PPT(pre placment talk) its very boring n last for 2 full hrs they tell you each and every thing about Accenture wright from the Scratch and at the end their was a question round but leave it and focus on interview
So the next day -
Hurdle 3rd…..Interview with HR and TECH interview will be going simultaneously and its their choice which 1n you get i Got Hr
Before going 2 HR cram ur Resume as its going 2 b HR- cum-Tech interview.B prepared for googlies like -
1) Why Accenture?
2) what you know about accenture?
3) Name 5 top indian IT company
They just check your confidence n skills and they tell you result after 5 min
now fourth and Final Hurdle………Tech interview
Please be prepare with One Subject as they only ask about your favorite subject and some question on it n dont say C or C++ unless your fully prepared, they want new technologies.
I told Java core and few simple questions like what is exception handling ? what is JSP ?

Accenture on 10 March 2007
Here is the Latest Pattern of Accenture paper of March 2007. The paper had 4 parts
1. aptitude test
2. GD
3. HR interview
4. Final interview
Aptitude test is easy.. …. comprises of general English.. including prepositions, articles, venn diagrams, 2 comprehension passages ( 1 is a bit tough and other one is easy ) and essay writing. our topic 4 essay was " IF I WERE THE PRIME MINISTER OF INDIA" we were given just 5 minutes to write the essay …. so u hav to be very fast.. word length is minimum 100 words for essay.
about 1000 students appeared 4 d apptitude test out of which about 400 cleared..
next was group discussion.. we had a gp of 15 students.. out of which 4 got selected. it is basically an ellimination round.. out of 15 students.. accenture hardly choose 2-4 students .. make sure that u r audible n clear on your point. my topic was" WHICH IS BETTER COCA COLA OR PEPSI ?" other topics were "SHOULD COLD DRINKS BE BANNED" " SHOULD CAPITAL PUNISHMENT BE DERE OR NOT "
my personal suggestions :- if u have a solid point in ur mind….. just without thinking initiate the GD.. after that even if u don't say anything thru out d gd.. still you will get selected.. coz this shows your leadership skills.. or.. if u couldn't initiate.. then in between give a valid point related 2 d topic.. n make sure ur point is considered, u r audible n clear.. coz it's tough to b audible in gp of 15 .. so better be loud n confident..
id GD is becoming a fish market .. try to calm every one.. bt also make sure u r giving a valid point after dat.. just speaking any thing won't work.. u must give a point dats valid
next were interviews………. both d interviews weer conducted side by side.. sum got d chance 2 appear 4HR and some 4 final interview .. which is basically technical … bt actually u cannot say anything……….because my both the interviews were mixture of both technical n HR !!
HR interview i was asked questions like :
tell us sumthin abt ur self ?
y do u wanna join accenture ?
wat cn u give to accenture ?
any problem if we relocate u ?
f we locate u to chennai ? ny problem ?
u frm CSE ? i said yes…..
den dey asked me ……… what is inheritance ?
give example ?
write program of inheritance ?
dey just check ur confidence n speaking skills…….. even if u don't know program… just b confident n write wat ever u know…… i wrote a correct program.. bt it was too simple!!
sum students were asked questions like…ur favorite subject.. n den dey ask u questions related to dat no matter u re mechanical engineer, chemical engineer , electronics engineer… dey hav questions 4 every one
ur fav subject in 12th ? some questions like describe faraday's laws, newtons laws were asked..
draw diagram of microprocessor?
one frnd f mine said her fav subject in 12th was chemistry ………
she ws asked Ca + H2SO4 = ?
next was final interview……
dey asked me my introduction..
would u hav ny problem if we relocate u ?
what are data structures ?
what is a variable ?
hat is linked list ?
den i had done oracle 9i , so dey asked me questions related to that..
what is index ?
what is inner join ?
i was asked to write 2 queries .. one simple select , other of joins !!
were do u see yourself after 5 years ?
well , that was my experience……bt i must say.. accentuire really filters the students.. n appoint just selected ones.. only 50 finally got selected..out of 1000 who appeared..
finally i made into accenture…… will b joining soon…. I'm really thnkful to freshersworld.com …….. the placement papers were very very helpful n u frns, don't worry.. it's not too tough.. all u need is confidence , gud comm.skills n knowledge abt ur subjects.. n u r in !! nywyas, all d best to all ..just work hard.. n hav faith in GOD ..
i was rejected in TECH MAHINDRA……. i couldn't clear final HR round.., n ws vry vry discouraged.. bt it's an old sayin bt very true "WAT EVER HAPPENS, IT HAPPENS 4 GUD " n finally i ws in ACCENTURE ,,,,,,,,,,,,so, frnds …….don't loose hope!! GOD BLESS U ALL !!
One more latest paper
Hello friends!!!
There was joint campus. there were around 800 ppl from 10 different colleges. they had called us at 8.30am. and they were on time. so better be on or before time for accenture placements. i was a bit late and so i missed the power point presentation. but friends never dare to do so because u need info about the company in HR interview. so starting with i would like to give some useful tips .
There are 4 rounds through which u have to go through
1. APTITUDE
2.G.D
3.HR INTERVIEW
4.TECHNICAL INTERVIEW
1> APTITUDE.
Basically there were 3 sections
1. analytical ability. under this section we had 5-6 problems based on venn diagram, then 1 question based on relationship, then 1 q based on " there are 50 people. If I stand 17th from front. then what will be my number from back". a little difficult type on it. also we had some problems on data sufficiency in this type. some problems were based on directions.
2.verbal
quite easy section .we had to fill in the blanks using articles. then 2 passages and all. was quite easy and scoring
3. i Don't remember the section name. but the problems were like if $=1 and *=0 then what will be thew represent ion of following. Find which of the three quantities are alike. eg 122256664,122256644, 122256664. so quite easy. the other questions were based on * stands for +,/ stands for-, = stands for*, - stands for /..then find the value of foll exp 5/6*2+2-4.. these questions were most diff part for me. as they were time consuming and u need little practice for them. so practice such prob.also there was an essay to be written. my topic was" MY FIRST DAY AT COLLEGE". TIME LIMIT WAS 5 MIN AND ESSAY SHOULD BE OF 100 WORDS.
out for 62 students from each classroom 15 were selected. and i was happy to find that i was 1 among them. them immediately we had GD. now comes the GD. my topic for gd was "AMITABH IN KBC V/S SHAHRUKH IN KBC"
it is important that for GD u speak some valid points. and convey them properly to your colleagues. be confident and speak well. my gd was like a fish market. during gd session of 10 min i hardly spoke 2 points. but at last that man gave 2 min each for conclusion. my conclusion was good so i got selected. out of 15 people she selected 10 ppl
HR interview Tips.
Read about the company's profile nicely. it is very important.
she asked me questions like 1. tell me about yourself and your family background. 2.what do u do in free time. 3. other than music what do u do? do u read any technical magazines.4. what did u decide to come into software field. who inspired u? who is ur role model. 5 your marriage plans.6.how imp is teamwork for u?. 7 have u ever managed any event in college. 8. who is important for u supervisor or councilor. 9. what do u think how will be ur first day in accenture. 10. are u ready to relocate.11. have u helped anyone grow.
Technical interview
only 1 question was asked. write a program for sequential linked list and insert a node into a already sorted linked list. the program was really difficult for me as i had not prepared. but then i wrote some part of program and as i knew the complete logic of program i explained him the logic.
Then he told me "u can go home" and "by the way u are selected". i was so happy . that atlast after so many rejections i got a job into accenture..
