SYNTEL PAPER
hello guys
Aptitude is the first hurdle.. n gettin thru this means half of the job is done.... If u hav
taken up GRE coaching .. try solving the verbal part first n then come to reasoning.. but if
u hav taken up a coachin of CAT then go for reasoning first.. as this section wil b very
easy for them... reasoning is tough if u dnt hav touch wid it.. but refer some books n
understand da methodologies to solve them before goin in..(howeva u'll shud better wat u
shud do frst)
Nearly 1000 students appeared for this test.. n they selected 200 out of them..n 36 were of
my coll...nearly 8 colleges had participated. The remaining rounds were scheduled to be
held four days later on sunday at 9 am.. They arranged us into batches n dependin on the
batch either technical or HR cum GD was done first...
My first interview was HR cum GD... it wasn't so tough...Our whole batch was allowed
in all together.. n everyone had to talk abt self for 2 mins.. they basically check the
communication n interactive skills here.. The HR may even ask some questions to check
ur confidence.. but be confident in wateva ur answerin...
Then she gave us a topic on GD.. Our topic was Globalization... Some advice wud lik to
giv is.. neva b in a hurry to speak.. as if it is da only time u'll b allowed to speak.. dnt try
to cut others statements n make ur point.. try comin to a conclusion n neva keep quiet in a
GD.. speak somethng...
As soon as i came out of the HR interview they intimated me dat i was selected and had
to go for technical round. The technical round wudn't say is tough... but yes great way for
dat guy to shake ur confidence.. he'll try his best but u hav to b at ur best...
Try readin the basics of almost all core subjects wch u had in engg...n yes C
programming.. dats very essential .. wateva branch u belong to..
So basically be through wid those basics.. n even if ur not.. be confident in any manner...
try smiling all da time before him.. n neva show him dat ur tensed.. for some of my
friends he asked questions such as Wat is Newton's II law .. Chemical formulaes n
trignometry stuff... jus to see how he reacts.. react in a positive way.. try getting da
answer.. but if ur not sure neva challenge him..
The results came in 2 days later.. out of 36 frm my coll..14 were selected. I stil can't
believe.. checked da list 3 times today...lolz. take care..jus confidence is wat u need to get
into any company...
Best of luck..

Selection Procedure
Round 1: Aptitude Test
Round 2: Technical Interview(P.I.)
Round 3: Human Resource Interview(P.I.)
Technical Interview:
Since I did a mini-project, I was asked to explain it! I took much time for that and
explained it from the beginning, with its advantages and limitations.
Then I was asked questions from C. Since I was a beginner in C, I could not answer much,
but somehow managed with all I knew!
Then, as I am from ECE department, questions from microprocessor was asked! The
questions included 8086 microprocessor architecture, register structures, addressing
modes, instruction set and so on. I answered all those questions but had some difficulties
with the instructon set as he asked me to tell all the instructions I knew.
Then, he gave me a paper and asked me to draw certain gate diagrams and also to write
down the truth-table for those gates!
These are the questions I remember.
It all depends on how cool you are during the interviews! The more you get hot, greater
are the chances for appearing blank before the personnels! So be cool and try to answer
all the questions.
The interviewer was a Lady. She asked me to introduce myself. I told her my academic
history. But as she emphasised on my personal life, I started with my hobbies. I said I
love singing and playing guitar. Immediately she interrupted and asked me to sing a song
for her. I was totally taken by surprise and had no other option but to sing!
Then she went through my resume and asked me to explain what I learnt from the
Industrial visits I had gone. I explained all that I knew. The interview went on interesting
with many such questions. But these are some noteworthy ones!
After the interviews were over, we were told that the results will be sent to the respective
Placement Deans of each colleges. So we left very soon enjoying the rain that blessed
that night!
I was selected in Syntel through the off campus at Arunai Engineering College. There
were about 8 colleges participating and around 600 candidates. Around 40 candidates
were selected(not sure) 7 from our college.
INTERVIEW PROCESS:
Our interview process had 3 stages
1.Logical & English
2.HR Round
3.Technical Round
I did'nt hav Qs from all these topics but these r the topics u can expect in ur written test.
Test Duration is 1 hour. Type - filling the omr sheet
Time management is very important.
Practice all type of problems as it takes u more time to solve cos these are not aptitude
type Qs. After the Written Test about 2 hrs Later the results were anounced. My name
was the last one to be read out. Then The PPT was conducted and presented about their
company's vision, mission, customers, the training, salary, bond ect. We were said that
we had to sign a bond of 2 yrs for a pay of 2.6 lacs PA. Later we were given a HR for m
to be filled were u enter personal information and Key skills. U can expect Qs from key
skills.

Interview performance was not that good even though I got selected.
Its Important to know that they look out for good communication skills.
One last tip : One of my best friends who has an Excellent Academic Perfomance & good
communication skills was out in HR round just of 1 reason.
He was caught in a Q - who is ur role model?
He answered Bill Gates and the interviewer started firing Qs about Bill Gates, and
he got caught in aQ - Wat was the latest award he got? The interviewer asked him cant u
keep urself well informed about ur role model and he was out .
There was 60 questions 1 hr time only 55%&above allowed package 2.15 lacs. 2 section

verbal and nonvebal book not all section just see ssome models k. for me there is no
negative marking .its very very easy..in quanti many ques same ans . just the twisted the

Hello friends.. I got placed in SYNTEL.. its a good company.. until later I realised it
later.Hope my review would help u irrespective of u get selected or not. I reached the test
centre at 0910 hrs.. while the reporting time was suposed to be 0800 hrs. Well everyone
were late engh.. tht didn't matter though. The written test started at 1130 hrs. Duration : 1
hour.
But I strongly believe that the cut-off marks were varied a little up & down.. though not
by a big margin. The logical sections include symbols, coding, blood relations, series and
2 DI questions.
The verbal section consisted of correction of sentences, substitution of correct words, and
passages. Rating of the exam will be characteristic frm person 2 person.. so I wouldn't
comment on that.
Results were announced, a brief inroduction abt the company was given. The next round
was a Technical cum HR round conducted in 2 stages.

exceptionally well except 4 the verbal which thrashed my CTS dream ..................i came
out with a heavy heart but determined to do better in future...................JESUS gave me
another chance that too in a row of 6 companies following.......................what ever i
studied earlier helped me to get thro the aps of caritor...........the paper was really a
standard one................but luck diddnt favoured me in the tech interview....it was a
burning hell ..........lasted upto 45 minutes................nearly 40 to 50 questions.............5

process.................finally my topic was chosen......and i waited until 7 finished out of
12.....to my surprise i found all of them were telling that GD should be there in a selection
process...........i was perplexed bcoz i was also about to support it...............at the last
moment my presence of mind and spontaniety helped me to outwit others...i spoke for
more than 5 minutes about the other side of group discussion which could make any one
have a second thought about having it in a selection process....... .................my command

SYNTEL PAPER
hello guys
I am Arka from Guru Nanak Engg College.. doin my 4-1 .. Recently i got thru da
selection process of Syntel.. The event was held in Malla Reddy College of Engineering.
As the remaining posts here say... The aptitude consists of two sections.. Reasoning and
Verbal...The cut off for reasoning is 13 out of 25 questions and verbal needed 8 out of 15
questions.. U have a time of 1 hr to complete... My test started in da afternoon n it took
nearly 4-5 hrs to announce da results for aptitude..
Aptitude is the first hurdle.. n gettin thru this means half of the job is done.... If u hav
taken up GRE coaching .. try solving the verbal part first n then come to reasoning.. but if
u hav taken up a coachin of CAT then go for reasoning first.. as this section wil b very
easy for them... reasoning is tough if u dnt hav touch wid it.. but refer some books n
understand da methodologies to solve them before goin in..(howeva u'll shud better wat u
shud do frst)
Nearly 1000 students appeared for this test.. n they selected 200 out of them..n 36 were of
my coll...nearly 8 colleges had participated. The remaining rounds were scheduled to be
held four days later on sunday at 9 am.. They arranged us into batches n dependin on the
batch either technical or HR cum GD was done first...
My first interview was HR cum GD... it wasn't so tough...Our whole batch was allowed
in all together.. n everyone had to talk abt self for 2 mins.. they basically check the
Then she gave us a topic on GD.. Our topic was Globalization... Some advice wud lik to
giv is.. neva b in a hurry to speak.. as if it is da only time u'll b allowed to speak.. dnt try
to cut others statements n make ur point.. try comin to a conclusion n neva keep quiet in a
GD.. speak somethng...
As soon as i came out of the HR interview they intimated me dat i was selected and had
to go for technical round. The technical round wudn't say is tough... but yes great way for
dat guy to shake ur confidence.. he'll try his best but u hav to b at ur best...
Try readin the basics of almost all core subjects wch u had in engg...n yes C
programming.. dats very essential .. wateva branch u belong to..
So basically be through wid those basics.. n even if ur not.. be confident in any manner...
try smiling all da time before him.. n neva show him dat ur tensed.. for some of my
friends he asked questions such as Wat is Newton's II law .. Chemical formulaes n
trignometry stuff... jus to see how he reacts.. react in a positive way.. try getting da
answer.. but if ur not sure neva challenge him..
The results came in 2 days later.. out of 36 frm my coll..14 were selected. I stil can't
believe.. checked da list 3 times today...lolz. take care..jus confidence is wat u need to get
into any company...
Best of luck..

Hi all,
Aptitude Round:
The test will be conducted for one hour and 15 mins. We completed the test by 11.15am
and the results were announced by 2pm. I got selected. The selected people were given a
“Bio-Data” form to fill, it includes your name, %, institution, university, name and work
of brothers and sisters, ur addr, phone no, ur training and project and finally ur s/w skills.
Be careful while filling this form because during HR only from that form ques will be put
to u. They will ask not your resume or photo! Only this form is going to be your evidence.
I attended the HR+TECH interview on 17th by 9am.The interview was cool, HR first
asked me to sit back and relaxed. The questions are
Be cool folks…they check your communication skills, ability, confidence level and your
skills up to 65% at least. They try to make you answer.
For most of my friends, during HR only two questions were asked. Tell me about
yourself and explain project.
They announced the results only on the 4th day, Mar 21st evening by 5pm. Thank God, I
got selected. They analyze our performance for 2 days and the results are being
announced only after 2 days… For us as Sunday and Monday were holidays, they
announced it by Wednesday. I extend my thanks to those who posted their experience
and ques. Be confident and +ve… ALL THE BEST!!!
