MICROSOFT-Placement Paper part-1/2008

MICROSOFT-Placement Paper

The paper had three sections(I am not sure about the names of the sections, but the times are correct, trust me!)

Verbal ability 25 qs 20 mts

Mental ability 25 qs 30 mts

Aptitude 20 qs 20 mts

If you just want to go thru the questions, just look at ‘à ’

The first section had basic English qs like use of prepositions, articles and two passages (both windows related):

à The first one was about RAM, and how Windows assigns a bit of RAM to each process and what happens in the case of multi-processing and all that.

à The second one was about DLL (Dynamic Linked Library) files and how they get an operation done.

These passages were followed by a set of questions which were simple if you carefully read the passage. My advice is that you better read the passages first clearly and only then start to answer the questions that follow. If you try to jump off in the middle to answer, you’ll only end up confused(because the choices given are such). That wraps up this section.

The second section mainly had questions involving union and intersection, for example:

à There are 2500 people in a club. 800 were drinkers, 1250 were smokers and 400 were both

drinkers and smokers. The number of teetotalers?

There was not much variation from question to question; I mean all were more or less of the same pattern.

And there were cube-based problems:

à A child was given to paint a cube with the following conditions:

White should face down.

Black and blue should be on the opposite faces.

Golden should be up.

..and some more like this. This was followed by a set of questions which were simple and direct.

The second one was a toughie.

à The cube again, with some conditions for colours. It is cut into two halves parallel to the black faced plane. The first half is cut into 4 equal cubes. And the second part into 32 equal cubes.

The questions were:

Number of cubes with at least one face coloured.

Number of cubes with no face coloured.

Number of cubes which have green on one of their faces.

And some more(this was the last question in the section so I couldn’t get to all).

And finally, the last section. It was a bit easy, comparitively.

It started off with 8 qs of the same type:

à Three set of words(or numbers) are given. If the first and second are exactly same opt for choice 1, if second and third are same, 2, and if first and third, choice3 and if none are same, then choice 4.

amarakbaraliKhan amarakhbaraliKhan amarakbaraliKhan

The answer here would be choice 3(All the choices were 3, by the way).

And then there were these set of questions(till the end, I think):

à Some qualification and conditions were given for a particular job( a bank job):

1. Age should be 25 or less as on Nov1, 2003

2. Should have passed X and XII with 60%.

3. Should have had Economics as a subject in 12th.

4. Should be fit physically.

If the candidate doesn’t satisfy the 2 norm, he should take a aptitude test.

And some more(not in this order)

And the questions were : Raj passed X and XII with distinction and has ecomics as a subject.

Choices: a. He can be selected.

b. He has to write the test.

c. He will get rejected.

There were 3(?) more questions of this sort.

That wraps up the test. Phew!!! And if you did read till here, do let me know if this helped you in any way.

MICROSOFT 2007

Q1: given a string search it in a set of strings (say among 1000s of
string). What datastructure would you use to store those 1000 strings
and get the results fastest?

Q2: Reverse a linked list?

Q3: Find if there is a loop in a linked List?

Q4: given 2 arrays of no find if each of the two arrays have
the same set of integers ? Suggest a algo which can run faster
than NlogN ?

Q5: Validate a Binary search tree? ( as in the left- right child follow
the property )

Q6: Write a routine that takes as input a string such as ("aabbccdef"
and o/p "a2b2c2def" or "a4bd2g4" for "aaaabddgggg".

Q7: Given a NxN matrix with 0s and 1s. now whenever you
encounter a 0 make the corresponding row and column elements 0.
Flip 1 to 0 and 0 remains as they are.

for eg 1 0 1 1 0
0 1 1 1 0
1 1 1 1 1
1 0 1 1 1
1 1 1 1 1
results in

0 0 0 0 0
0 0 0 0 0
0 0 1 1 0
0 0 0 0 0
0 0 1 1 0

Q8: Given 2 set of arrays of size N(sorted +ve integers ) find the
median of the resultent array of size 2N. (dont even think of
sorting the two arrays in a third array , though u can sort them).
Try smthng better than order N ..order LogN >:) .

Q9: given 1000 bottles of juice, one of them contains poison and tastes
bitter. Spot the spoiled bottle in minimum sips?
(hint: try to mix them)

Q10: whats the diff b/w a thread and a process? are Word and
powerpoint different processes or threads of a single process?

Q11: How does a spell cheaker routine (common to both, word and
Powerpoint) used.. I mean is the code copied 2 times for each of the
processes in teh main memory, if they are diffent processes or how is
it used if they are threads.

Q12. IF the Fibonacci series is 1,2,3,5,8,13,.....
then 10 can be written as 8 + 2 ==> 10010
17 can be written as 13 + 3 + 1 ==> 100101


Q13. I have a file in which there are supposed to be 4 billion numbers,
starting from 1 to 4,000,000,000 but unfortunately one number is missing,
i.e there are only 3,999,999,999 numbers, I need to find the missing
number. In this question he asked me concepts like fopen, what will be the
size of such a file and how such a big file will get loaded into RAM,
and also concepts of logical/virtual/physical memory and memory paging.


Q14. I have an array consisting of 2n+1 elements. n elements in it are
married, i.e they occur twice in the array, however there is one element
which only appears once in the array. I need to find that number in a
single pass using constant memory. {assume all are positive numbers}
Eg :- 3 4 1 3 1 7 2 2 4
Ans:- 7


Q15. There is a temple, whose premises have a garden and a pond. It has 4
idols, each of Ram, Shiv, Vishnu and Durga. The priest plucks x flowers
from the garden and places them in the pond. The number of flowers
doubles up, and he picks y flowers out of them and goes to offer it to
Lord Ram. By the time he reaches to the pond, he finds the remaining
flowers also have doubled up in the meantime, so he again picks up y from
the pond and goes to Lord Shiv.This process is repeated till all the Gods
have y flowers offered to them, such that in the end no flower is left in
the pond. Find x and y.

Q16.There is a central server and some clients connected to it. All the
changes made to data occur at the server, and all the clients have just
read access. You have two options:-
1. Push :- The server keeps pushing data to the clients.

Kanbay Placement Paper

We had kanbay on 10 th aug in MVSR eng.. college.

30 quest were logical reasoning
30 ques were maths (Arithmetics and some maths topic like geometry etc)
duration was 90 mins and cutoff is 12 from each section.
after that GD and then personal interview. and paper was 2 sets (codes both are entirely different I think one was little bit easy).

maths was not so simple it was little bit tough. i guess it is of CAT standard. so solving RS agrawal and other is not sufficient. if possible prepare form any cat book it would definitely help u its my experience.

prepare well good luck. Plz. consider my experience.
I happened to attend kanbay interview at my campus - vasavi college of engg HYD

Kanbay test consisted three rounds
first one --- written test, consisted 2 parts 1>MATHS 2> REASONING.
reasoning was dead easy & maths was easy but somewhat time consuming with many calculations. there were five sets of papers, time given was 90 mins (more than sufficient) with cuttoff 12 in each section (i fell there was upper cutoff too!)

second one ---- a GD
we were given choice, later they have decided to conduct role play. batch of 10 for abt 30 mins, many were selected.

third --- interview consisted both HR as well as TECH .it was less of tech more of HR

overall it was very easy, I personally feel kanbay has lot of requirement!
have attended on-campus of CTS at JNTU, hyd on 20/jul/05. I want to share some of my experiences with u.

PATTERN:
1)Written test 40 Questions 60 minutes
problems from probability, time&distance,progressions,4 to 6 from general english
2)Technical + Hr for 30 min.

Written test looks a little bit hard but answer those questions u r perfect first. So that time will be adjusted. Don't get nervous, nobody can attempt full paper.

Interview is so cool and every question they ask depends on ur previous answer. while giving answers see that u know everything u r saying about. Be confident while answering even it is wrong. Just go thru the 64-Q&A generally asked in interviews like why should we hire u? why do u think ur perfect for this company? Impress them with ur answers.

Kanbay Placement Paper

c part also look like very easy but be careful.the first 4 questionare somewhat difficult all others are easy.all are direct questions like, compile time error etc.

if you asked him to give the topic in g.d they will give

"it professionals part in indian economy"
they give the same topic in every college.

if the group was follows the g.d rules then you follow ,otherwise you must shout like
lok shaba .
they mainly select the top scores in the apptitude.

in interview they will not ask anything.
just about you and your family background .so in interview there is no problem.

for c questions read the pointers in c book.there are some solved problems in back of every chapter it will help you lot.

don't worry about time time you have enough time.but do c questions carefully. they are very easy.

FIRST 5 QUESTIONS WERE VERY TOUGH
REMAINING WERE OK

Ivega was started in 1997, now the employee strength is 127, it is located in globle village , behind R V College of Engineering. it is a very small company.work is good i suppose. this recruitment is due to its merger with a france based company. i dont think that pay will be very good. regarding platforms they r presently working on .NET , ASP, JNI, JAVA.

The test is of 30 min...

it contains

1.english Verbal GRE synonyms antonyms

2.aptitude Aggarwal book

3. General knowledge

4.anlatical reasoning

Total 50 Q


Ivega conducts an aptitude test.....in which there are
50 ques to answer in 30 minutes.i think it would be
best to go thru aptitude books like r.s.
aggarwal.moreover, there are 5 rounds to get
thru....viz. aptitude test, G.D., hr interview,
technical test, C.O.O.'s interview.
anyway, all the best....



about the test.....


It was mix of all, like there were some aptitude questions, reasoning,
English grammer but surprisingly no analytical questions...for the
pattern given to me.

there were some general awareness questions like when does Olympics
started??

a man is given 8 $ per hour and he works for 8hr per day, for working
xtra hr he gets 1.5 times more than wht he usually gets. if he gets 80$
for one particular day, then how many did he work??

test duration : 30 minutes
no of questions : 50.

Topic for GD : should western dress code be cumpulsory for IT jobs.

The test cnsisted of 3 sections:
1. Aptitude -> 60 questions(1 hr)
2. Maths -> 15 questions(30 min)
3. C or Java(there is an option) -> 30 questions(1 hr)

1. Aptitude:


Started with fill in the blanks, followed by analogies, antonyms. Next came the data sufficiency & logical reasoning questions. Then there were some basic quatitative questions. Finally the aptitude test ended with some data interpretation questions.
Antonyms of:
Increduluous
Zest
Officious

Analogies:
RANK:INSIGNIA -> PEOPLE:STATUS
FATIGUE:RESTING -> OVERWEIGHT:DIETING

2.Maths:

Model paper of Inetrgraph



1 question__ on analogy
1 " _______non verbal reasoning

ALL THESE ARE NOT TOUGH .AVERAGE LEVEL.
THEY HAVE GIVEN TWO TYPES OF PAPERS.HERE I AM GIVING THE PAPER WHICH
WAS WRITTEN BY MY FRIEND.


1.there are 6 (p,q,r,s...)people.each one play one game
#NAME?
clues given like:shortest one plays hokey
largest person plays ..tennis
P,Q ARE NEITHER LARGEST NOR SHORTEST
R PLAYS FOOTBALL
s is between t &r in height
question: who plays which game
who is taaller than whom
2.a cube has colors blue,red ,yellow each on two opposite sides.cube is
divided into "32 small cubes and 4 large cubes".
question:how many cubes (on 36 cubes) have blue at leat one side.
how many cubes have colors on two sides.
3.anlogy: cell: tissue::atom:?

4.aa person sold two articles for 80 /- each.with 20% profit on one
article and 20% loss on another article, what is the loss / prifit he
will gain on both.

5.five cities. city1 is west to city3.city4 is east to city 5._____etc.
which is farthest on west side.

6.one question on: -=+,*=-,/=* etc
then 10/5*45=?

7.on ,C, paper is easy.mostly on pointers,3 question on structures,5 on
fundamentals,
8.ex:define max 10

main()
{int a,b;
int *p,*q;
a=10;b=19;
p=&(a+b);
q=&max;
} Q a)error in p=&(a+b) b)error in p=&max c)error in both d) no error


important suggestions:

1. average preparation is enough to qualify foe interview.time is
enough.
2.they are particular about academic background .
3.interview is only on personal details.no question on technical subjects

INFOSYS PAPER ON 21st JULY

HI FRIENDS,

I AM SWATHI FROM GNITS , GOT PLACED INTO INFY , N I HOPE THIS PAGE HELPS U ALL



TEST PATTERN:

1. APTITUDE and VERBAL

2. HR

NOTE :(we were given an application form of infy we were asked to write it before the exam had started)



APTITUDE:

All questions were of REASONING type -----30 questions(R.S Aggarwal reasoning book is more than enough)

here time management is very important

One question was time consuming for me and

that was from the puzzle test so be prepared wid all 7 models of PUZZLE TEST



we had DATA INTETERPRETATION and as i couldnt solve the 1st question properly i had to solve this

so dont waste time for the questions u cannot solve instead do the one which is easier n refer(r s aggarwal quantitative aptitude for this)

mostly bar charts,tables and pi charts are given(we were given a table)



5 questions were from FIGURES

we were given 3 figures followed by a '?'

in this the 1st two figures are have some relationship b/w them n based on that we hav to pick an answer figure which matches the 3rd figure

this was an easy one



5 questions were from SYLLOGISM

this was a bit different from wht i thought

they give 5 statements naming them a,b,c,d,e

then the answers choices were like 3 were paired eg:1)abe 2)dbe 3)aeb 4)dae

n we hav to find the pair which corretly matchs it if u do r.s aggarwal n r perfect wid all rules of syllogism i dont thing this would b tough



5 questions were of DATA SUFFICIENCY type

i felt this was easy

the questions i remember were from mensuration,length of train,ages of people



thts it in this part, we were not told the cutoff but i think its better to try for atleast 20 out of 30



VERBAL:

40 questions were there

i scored 24 marks

there were 2 RCs one was of 2 pages i attempted in the last 5 min but i did it well i believe

then we had



correction of sentences

fill in the blank with correct word

around 5to 6 passages for which we had go choose the correct summary

u hav to read these very fast

time management is very very imp. here

do not waste even one min looking here and there coz tht one min costs a loooooooot



finally i was called my name for HR n i was on the top of the world

i actually got thru wipro also but the joy of getting into a dream company is just great

one should definately experience it



HR:

One important thing is tht dont think tht its just HR

u should always remember tht there is one more hurdle to pass

in my 1st interview i hav learnt a lot "wht to do n wht not to do in the HR round" so if u hav not yet been placed then first analyze why tht has happened n try to improve on that coz there r huge oppertunities in this world

some way or the other u can get thru once u improve on ur flaws

so be confident and dont be jelous abt the ones who hav already got its a very bad thing



My HR round was coool

HR: come in swathi

me: yes sir

HR: cmon take ur seat

me: thank u sir (he had asked my resume and asked me to sign on it n also at few places on the application form)

HR: so ur father works as so n so

me: yes sir

HR: so where does he work

me: said

HR: do u hav ny bros or siss

me: said

HR: whr did he do his scholling

me: said (so be prepared wid ur family members' details also)

HR: so ur hobbies r travelling n music

me: yes sir

HR: whre hav u travelled

me: said a lot of places in India n i mentioned tht i like cold places

HR: k then which was the coldest place u saw

me: shillong in winter, then comes munnar

HR: so would there b snow fall fall

me: (me sadly)no sir yet to see such a place once

HR: do u like travelling coz of ur fathers transferable job

me: no sir even otherwise i never miss a chance to travel

HR: he gave me 3 topics and asked me to speak on 1

me: spoke abt supermarket (he was impressed)

HR: is there an incident in ur life whr u hav improved or had to changed ur work culture

me: said

HR: then she asked me abt my paper presentation(it was on face detection which comes under AI)

HR: how would u explain to a 7th class kid abt AI

me: i definately had an answer for tht so i answered n i think he was happy wid my answer

HR: k swathi there r 6 matchsticks here arrange them so that "each one touches one another"

me : i could make 5 to touch each other but not the 6th one

HR: then he asked me to make 4 equlateral triangles with those sticks

me: (the answer is to make a pyramid out of it)i almost did it then he sait to leave it aside

HR: k so wht sports do u play

me: i enjoy playing badminton and these days i hav started playing TT too n i njoy tht too

HR: do u hav ny questions

me: asked 2 questions n he had answered them very patiently

HR: k then u can leave now and cal the next person and ALL the Best

me: thank u sir



and that was it i thought i did well & finally i got through so hope this has helped u all & ALL THE BEST to Alll U Freshers

INFOSYS PAPER ON 27th JULY AT KOCHI

Hi…am Salman Ali..doin my 7th sem in B.Tech,I.T at Cochin University of Science and Technology, Kochi ,Kerala. InfoSys had com to our college last Friday,27.07.07….am so happy that with the Almighty`s grace I was able to turn that day into another Good Friday..

As u must hav read de other experiences…Infy exam is very simple. All u require is som gud concentratn,time management and ofcourse good preparation.. For preparation I mainly read the experiences many others hav posted at FRESHERSWORLD.COM which helped me tremendously…So let me say…”Jai FreshersWorld!!!!”……

Then as per their advices I went for Verbal n Nonverbal by R.S Agarwal….Also for a few sections I used I.M.S CAT notes which also helped me heavily…O.k,lets start…

Written test contains 2 parts…
1.logical
2.English

The logical part consists of 6 type of Questions each having 5 q`s…The types are
1.Data interpretation
2.Data Sufficiency
3.Syllogisms
4.Pictorial Q`s
The other two might b anything from Puzzles,Blood relation Q`s, Cubes n Dices.

As for Data interpretatn,it takes gud amt of time,so it wud be best done at last. Topics like Data Sufficiency n Syllogisms I covered from I.M.S notes…Syllogisms do not come as they r seen in agarwal…they give a pack of 6 sentences from which u hav to select the appropriate 2 statements n a conclusion. answer contains 4 options lik abd,cef,eba..etc etc…its very very simple. all u hav to do is go from the answers using trial and error method…. data suff. Q`s com from any part of aptitude. so u hav to b fast in applying your brains to c if the statements r suff or not. its not necessary 2 find the answer…tak care of time…

Pictorial Q`s may b to find the odd one or to find the missing figure. Both are very well given in agarwal(verbal n nonverbal).
For us the first ques was tat card game called Flash..its simple but takes time.i had already done one of them from my I.M.S material(Logical Reasoning).Luckily for me,the same q came.he he he..the answers were (1)74 (2) 26 (3) 18 (4)16 (5){9,9,10}…………..

The final type was related to relations…as in…5 friends stayin in different societies and each of them having a different bank account…and the q`s wer lik who has a acc wher,who lives in society X…..etc etc..it simple….

All u hav to do is tak care of ur time…40 mins for 30 q`s…b in touch wth ur watch…

Now for the English part which is 35 mins for 40 q`s…pls dnt go for the passages..keep them for the end…the other q`s are correcting sentence,fill in ,concluding a para etc etc..if u r week in English try out the verbal(agarwal)..I.M.S notes also help..otherwis it shouldn’t b a problem..its simple..but time consuming..so again..tak good good care of ur time….Try answering all..dont think thers negative marking…so mak it a blast…

Then the H.R…I was de first one to attend…it was simple…jus casual talk…actually my H.R was so cool tat I forgot it was an intervw..very relaxed..jus had a natural conversantn….

And all praise to the Almighty I was one among the 25 selected…47 from 329 had passed the written….really njoyd cz I had not even told my parents abt the exam tat day..so it was a total surprise dhamaka…..yeaaaaahhh!!!!!
nothin technical was askd…prepare for the exam well…not by reading the whole of agarwaal,but by going thru the required topics…

Infosys Paper On 11th September 2007 AT Punjab Engineering College,Chandigarh

Frankly speaking, its not such a rocket science, it is only the hard work for a day or two... and u r selected.



Process:

1) Written paper

2) Interview



------------------------------------

1) Now,written paper is divided into two parts.. mainly Aptitude and Verbal ability.

Aptitude ------ 30 Questions------ 40 minutes

Verbal ability(VA) ------ 40 Questions------ 35 minutes

---> Our "Aptitude" paper was above average level,I mean,it was a bit time consuming. Actually it was a good aptitude paper.

I selected easiest of questions first and answerd thm.. thn accordingly, I solved some more,in order of their increasing difficulty level. but frankly speaking,I was able to solve about 16-18 questions in the regulation time. Rest I made guesses( always do it,if negative marking is not thr). U will clear the cut off without mch difficulty,if u hv genuine understanding. Other option is read R.D.Sharma(i hd nt read it).



Then our "Apti" paper was taken,and "VA" Q. paper ws given to us.



---> Now,this paper consist of 2 reading comprehensions & rest Sentence making & Simple grammer.

I attempted reading comp. in the end as they r generally time consuming and less scoring. So,first do the easy part,then the difficult one. This paper was comparitively easier than previous one. No need to do extra to clear this one.



**NOTE--- Each paper hs its individual cut-off.





After 1.5 hrs,our results wer out. Out of 110 students,about 73 wer shortlisted for inerviews.



2) We hd 6 panels in total. One person in each panel. Interviews r basically of HR type. Whr u will b asked to describe urself,abt the newspaper u read,something related to ur interest,may be some puzzles(not tough) etc.

My interview ws basically the "stressed" one type. Whr I ws put under sme sort of pressure(rude behaviour etc,it depends on ur luck and panel). My hobby ws music and singing,so i ws asked abt music and even to sing a song(wch i sung well..) .

overall,it ws a typical HR interview.

If u hv confidance,u will clear it easily. Be cool during interview (sp during solving a puzzle). My interview ws a stressed 15 min HR interview. (All other panals were relatively cool and calm.)



--------------------------------------------



The interviews wer ended at abt 11 pm and our results wer out at 11.30 pm. We wer called in audi,and names of selected candidates were announced. Out of 73,abt 62 wer selected. I ws one of them.



So friends, it is not a difficult process,bt requires confidence and faith in urself.



All the best to all sitting. Meet you in Infosys.

INFOSYS PAPER ON ON 29th JULY

Hi Friends, Im KAVITA from H.B.T.I Kanpur, recently INFOSYS Technologies visited our campus. We all r well aware of this IT giant ,its one of the best company of india n i think most of us consider IT as a dream company. I GOT SELECTED IN INFOSYS n its like a dream come true. Earlier i was a harcotian n now im a Infosian.

NOW SOMETHING IMPORTANT

WRITTEN:
APPTITUDE = 30 questions (40 min)

IT WAS EASY TO CRACK, NEED TIME MANAGEMENT, STUDY R.S AGARWAL(Verbal , non - verbal)
1. INPUT: START
STATEMENT 2 :a=38, b=43, c=45
STATEMENT3 :a=b , b=c
like wise some more statements
OUTPUT: STOP

NOW questions based on it (TOTAL 5 QUESTIONS SORRY I DONT REMEMBER ALL)
if a= a+b+c then find the output at the end of the program.

2. questions on odd figure out in non- verbal(5 diagrams will be given) very easy
3. data sufficiency(5)
4.data interpretation(a table was given but prepare bar graphs, pie charts, line graphs also)
5. logical reasoning (6 person are having sunshine aries, libra etc. the one who is tall is not a libran) Make table to solve these questions.
6. Syllogism
6 sentences given n we hv to arrange in logical order.use venn diagram

ENGLISH: 35 questions(30 min)
It was a difficult one, totally C.A.T. pattern.
-2 very big passages(one on how managers manage the things, other on E-Commerce)
-sentence corrections(based on grammer, logics)
-fill in the blanks with correct word(need very strong vocabulary)
-short passages(4-5 lines) u need to find correct inference, assumption, conclusion out of 4 sentences given.

IN OUR COLLEGE 200 STUDENTS APPEARED
CLEARED WRITTEN= 31
FINALLY SELECTED=19
I WAS ONE OF THE LUCKY PERSON

INTERVIEW:
No Technical , prepare puzzles(they ask)no puzzle was asked to me but a lot to my friends.
Frankly speaking.(they check 2 things either u should hv very good communication skills or ur apptitude should be very sharp, some of my friends who r not very good at communication answered the puzzles very effectively n they are in, so dont loose hope, show ur full confidence n definitely u will b selected.)

gave his first daughter 25%of his property+Rs 25000
2 his second daughter 25% of property + Rs 10000 and gave his other daughters in succession 10% of property+25000 more than he gave to his eldest daughter. 5 ques were given on this data like 2 find total no of daughters etc... i did not get the ques so i skipped it.but as there is no negative marking go for some blind guesses.
5 ques were based on figures.
