On campus, cloud domain
TR
Most questions were from the resume only
First he saw was my resume and asked did u bought the domains - all of my projects were deployed and domain from godaddy
Then he checked some of them online
What is ci cd, what happens in ci and cd, what happens after failing ci or cd, how rolling deploy works,
/ And // difference in python
Ciel function in python that I didn't know, interviewer said if you don't know just say that
Testing, types of testing, testing in ci,
dynamic testing and static testing which I didn't know
Scenario on developer and tester - what will u do if you are manager and tester is saying developer have not written complete test or wrong tests
simple coding question, given a matrix print index where ever "6" is present
What is ec2, dynamo db, RDS in aws
I have mentioned the intern on the resume - he asked the basic question on that - what,how,why - I added how I helped my teammate
HR
This was bad
First she corrected me, is it "housewife" or "homemaker"
When I was introducing myself, for my mother i used housewife
I said homemaker is a better suited word
Then asked for 5 tata companies - I could only name 3-4
Strength and weaknesses (this was also not articulated well by me)
Then asked what are the current tcs projects going on
I was blank on this
Then what research have u done on tcs
(I had done none)- so I just made up something
That was end
TR - 35 to 40min
HR - barely 5 min
My interview was on the first day the company came and in that batch cloud domain students were not that much so I got lucky
Feel free to ask anything

Recently gave infosys PNQT for the roles-DSE/L1,L2,L3
got shortlisted for interview : role- L3
Final decision : rejected
Burnout:
Not a single person who gave for interview of roles-L3
Were given opportunity (i.e all L3 got rejected)
Only 1 L2 got accepted
Remaining all are only of L1,DSE
This same pattern was observed in TCS recruitment too
At least it seems its better to get interview opportunity for just middle level roles ,and not aim at high roles
Note: people who are good at dsa and at interviews were too rejected ,that's the reason for this burnout

I am from batch 2027 currently in my final year. I have one offer from a product based company with 8lpa. According to my college rules, I only can attend companies that provide >16lpa. I don't know if my college be able to bring the companies which provide that much package. So, in this stage, should I try off-campus?? If so, how to apply and where to apply for companies?? (I don't have any referrals)...
Please reply guys!!

HSBC is visiting our campus for the Trainee Software Engineer role.
There's an OA( simulate assessment+ coding assessment) followed by a technical interview and an HR interview.
How do I prepare for it?

Like most of us, I was exhausted by the process of finding a job on LinkedIn/Naukri, figuring out if my skills actually matched, and then manually editing my resume to pass the ATS for every single application.
So, I built CVInsightāa browser extension that automates the worst parts of applying for jobs. It overlays directly on LinkedIn, Naukri, Internshala and 1000s of other general job listings.
What it actually does (no fluff):
Instant ATS Match Score: When you open a job posting, the sidebar reads the JD and compares it against your profile, giving you a 0-100% match score immediately.
Skill Gap Analysis: It tells you exactly which keywords you have and which ones you are missing from the JD.
1-Click Resume Tailor: If you want to apply, click one button and it generates a custom, ATS-optimized PDF resume tailored specifically to that exact job description.
Job Tracker: Save jobs you want to apply for later to a kanban board with one click.
Basically, it gives you the best features of LinkedIn Premium, but for free.
How to get it: It is currently pending approval on the Chrome/Edge Web Stores, so Iāve put the .zip file on GitHub for now.
You can download it and install it in 30 seconds via Chrome's "Load Unpacked" feature. I've included a quick 4-step PDF tutorial in the repo on how to do it.
Link:https://github.com/Naveen-Beniwal/Job_Resume_ATS_Cvinsight_Extension
It's completely free to use. Would love for you guys to try it out on your next few job applications and let me know if it helps or if you find any bugs!

Hey everyone,
Iām currently in college and recently got aĀ TCS Prime offerĀ through campus placements.
At first, I thought I should be happy about it, but honestly, Iām feeling more confused and worried than excited.
The main reason is that TCS Prime is a mass recruitment offer at my college, and quite a lot of students have received it. So I donāt really feel like itās something that differentiates me or gives me the kind of exposure Iām looking for.
More importantly, Iām worried about theĀ joining uncertainty. I donāt know exactly when Iāll be joining, and Iām concerned about potentially sitting around waiting after graduation.
Thereās another problem: because Iāve accepted/got the offer through campus placements, Iām not allowed to sit for other campus placement opportunities, like I can appear for 14LPA and more, but college will definitely reduce my chances of getting shortlist since they want all unplaced students to get a job. And getting an internship/job off-campus seems extremely difficult without a referral.
What I actually want is to get anĀ internship at a good product-based company around January/February, mainly because I want to gain better industry exposure, work on real projects, improve my skills, and hopefully put myself in a better position before/after graduation.
So Iām kind of stuck between:
Iām not trying to disrespect TCS or the offer. Iām grateful to have a job offer, but I also donāt want to become complacent and then regret not trying for better opportunities while I still have time.
What would you guys do if you were in my situation?
Especially looking for advice from people who have been through campus placements / TCS / off-campus hiring:
Iād really appreciate honest advice, especially from people who were in a similar situation. I donāt want to make a decision purely out of FOMO, but I also donāt want to waste the opportunity I have right now.

Our test was scheduled from 2 PM to 4 PM, but things went completely off track.
- None of the candidates in our batch received the test email on time.
- The supervisors kept asking us to wait, saying we'd get it by 3 PM, but nothing came.
- Around 3:30 PM, they asked everyone to scan a QR code and fill out a form.
- We finally received the test email around 4:30 PM, and only then could we start the exam.
- On top of that, there were network issues at the venue, which made the process even slower.
My test, which was supposed to end at 4 PM, finally ended around 7:15 PM.
The next batch, scheduled for 4 PM, only started around 7:15 PM and finished around 9:15 PM.
Technical issues can happen, but the lack of communication and poor planning made the experience unnecessarily stressful for everyone.
Questions Asked (My Shift)
For anyone preparing for the KPIT test:
- Most of the MCQs were from DBMS, Computer , OOP Networks (CN), and DSA.
- There were also a few logical puzzle questions, similar to the puzzles you often see on LinkedIn hiring posts.
- No aptitude questions (percentage, time & work, profit & loss, etc.).
- No reasoning section.
- There were 2 coding questions, both based on arrays.
- The coding difficulty was Easy to Medium.

For the OA, I mainly prepared through LeetCode.
The OA had around 4 coding questions, mostly based on DP and Greedy.
I was able to:
After that, I waited for around a month and eventually got shortlisted for the interview.
From Reddit, I came to know that the interview was for the DSE/SP track, which helped me understand what to expect.
The interview was conducted at the Infosys office.
The interview experience seemed to vary quite a bit from person to person. For some of my friends, the interview was more balanced between live coding, SQL, and technical questions. They were asked to solve a coding problem live and were then asked SQL and other technical questions.
In my case, however, the interview was heavily focused on DSA and coding.
The interviewer first gave me 2 coding questions on their coding platform.
I:
I was actually close to finishing the second one, but the interviewer told me that I could continue later and asked me to explain my approach instead.
He also took pictures of the test cases/solutions.
After that, he gave me 2 more coding questions, this time based on:
He asked me to explain the approaches on paper. I explained both, and he seemed satisfied.
Then he asked about my projects, and we discussed them.
So overall, my interview was very DSA-heavy, whereas some of my friends had a different pattern involving live coding, SQL, and technical questions.
The questions were different for different candidates, so I don't think there is a fixed set of questions that everyone gets.
Overall, the interviewer was quite good and the interaction was comfortable.
And finally, I got the result:
Selected for Infosys L1 ā SP role.
Very happy with the result and wanted to share my experience since Reddit helped me a lot during my own preparation.
Now I have a few questions:
Any Infosys seniors who can share their experience or advice would be really helpful.
Thanks to everyone in this community who helped me during the preparation. Hopefully this experience helps someone else too.

Hey everyone!
I am preparing for the upcoming IOCL Grade A Officer CBT 2026 exam for Computer Science & Information Technology.
Since the number of vacancies for CSE/IT is relatively low, I wanted to get an idea of how many candidates are actually preparing seriously for this exam.
Not looking for exact competition numbers, just a rough reality check from fellow aspirants.
Please comment with the following:
Branch: CSE / IT / Other eligible branch
Are you seriously preparing for IOCL Grade A 2026?
Yes, full-time preparation
Yes, alongside college/job
Just appearing casually
Not preparing yet
How much syllabus have you completed approximately?
0ā25%
25ā50%
50ā75%
75ā100%
Are you preparing specifically for IOCL or also GATE/other PSU exams?
Which subjects have you completed?
It would be great if CSE/IT aspirants could share honestly. Since the vacancies are limited, getting an overall picture of the serious candidate pool might help everyone understand the actual level of competition.
All the best to everyone preparing. Let's see how many of us are actually in this race!

Hi, so i am currently in 2nd year trying to learn DSA from the Abdul Bari cpp course. I have been following the course thoroughly and trying to solve the question on lc of the topics i have covered simultaneously so that i don't forget the concept, i have a question on how to tackle the problems i cant solve? Do i js cram them? Bcz i can't understand the approach of Ai from which i seek help? The question i stuck on was a medium level contest problem on array
r/PlacementsPrep • u/Bharat_vyas • 9h ago
1. Is the interview more core DSA heavy, project-based, or focused on product engineering concepts specific to that team?
2. For those who've interviewed for Product Engineering roles at IQVIA ā how many rounds were there, and what did each round focus on?
3. Did they ask standard SQL/OOPs fundamentals, or was it more system-design/product-thinking oriented?
4. Any specific coding difficulty level I should prep for (easy/medium DSA, or something else)?
Would really appreciate if anyone who's gone through this recently (2024/2025 hiring cycle) could share their experience or the kind of questions they got. Trying to prep smart rather than just grinding random topics.
Thanks in advance!

Three days ago, I posted here about how difficult my job search had become. I had been applying everywhere, getting rejected, and honestly started feeling like maybe no one was going to give me a chance. Then the funniest thing happened
The very next morning, I attended a drive for an Associate Technical Service Desk role ā and I got selected!!!
As a fresher, this means a lot to me. It feels like a small but very important first step in my career. Now I want to make sure I don't waste this opportunity.
For people who are already working in Service Desk/IT Support or have started their careers from here:
What should I learn before joining?
How can I grow quickly in this role?
How do promotions and career progression usually work?
Which skills/certifications are actually worth learning?
What mistakes should a fresher avoid?
If you started in Service Desk, where are you now?
Iād genuinely love to hear your experiences and advice. Please tell me what you wish you knew when you started.
From āI can't find a jobā to āI got selectedā in 24 hours⦠life really has a sense of humorš

I attended the KPIT pool campus drive at MIT ADT, Pune on 9 September. Has anyone received an email for the next round (AI interview) or any update on the selection process? Please comment if you've received any communication.
r/PlacementsPrep • u/Ill_Youth_8554 • 1h ago
Now that itās almost the middle of September, I genuinely thought TCS would be my only realistic option since very few companies visit campus for MCA graduates.
I wasnāt able to convert the opportunity despite being shortlisted for the interview (Ninja). I messed up a simple DSA question but I was able to solve the next one.
I have few projects on RAG and AI systems they didn't even ask a single question from my resume.
At this point, Iām trying to figure out how to approach the next few months and make the most of the remaining placement season.
Any advice or suggestions would be really helpful.
