The students in the green channel (75% and above throughout and 76% and above in BE) in our campus were exempted from the aptitude test.
The aptitude test consisted of 30 questions. 80 minutes were allotted to solve all the questions. Be careful while solving the questions as there is negative marking. There were some starred questions. These questions were carrying more marks.

Important Tips for HR Interview

Include all that you can in the introduction but highlight what the other person wants to hear.
For e.g.: highlight your technical skills in a technical round and your experiences of teamwork and examples of your adaptability in HR round. - Be thoroughly prepared with at least two of your areas of interest in the technical round.
- Make sure you’re thorough with your project work, training, and internships.
