iFlex Placement Paper-15th APRIL AT WEST BENGAL
I-FLEX PAPER ON 15th APRIL AT WEST BENGAL
Hi!!!!!! I�m Sagnik, from Netaji Subhash Engg. College- Garia (KOLKATA)�First of all I want thank all the people who uploaded there experiences in this website which has helped me a lot.
I attended the POOL campus recruitment process of I-FLEX, on 15th April 2007 in AOT (Academy of Technology, Adisaptogram) ���
We have our reporting time at 10:00 a.m. But alike any other pool campusings nothing went according to the schedule�
After 2 hours at 12:00 we were called in for the aptitude test. At last the test was started at 12:20 p.m�.
Total 50 questions were there. ( +1 mark for each right answer and -0.25 for each wrong.) Duration was 1 hour��
The APTI paper consisted of 5 sections with 10 questions in each.
1. ENGLISH TEST.
2. DATA INTERPRITATION.
3. CODING-DECODING & SERIES.
4. CONCLUSION DRAWING & LOGICAL REASONING.
5. QUANTITIVE APTITUDE.
1. ENGLISH TEST
4 questions were from analogy and 6 were from reading comprehension. This section was tough. To answer this section completely one needs to have depth in English. So, it was not my cup of teaJ� I attempted only 5. (Because �ve marking was there.)
2. DATA INTERPRETATION
2 tables were given on the basis of them 10 questions (5 for each) were there. They were tricky for sure but at the same time not to tough. I did 9 of them and was sure that they were going to fetch me 9 marks. So, this section gave me a extra bit of oxygen after that mess is the English part. Practicing from R.S.Agarwal Quantitive Aptitude book helped me.
3. CODING-DECODING & SERIES
This part was easy and I correctly answered 10 of them�. For this part R.S.Agarwal Verbal-nonverbal book is enough�..
eg: (It is not the exact one but of same type)
Q. If the word CAPTAIN is coded like NCNVYKC then what is the code for OBSCURE?
Q. 1 7 8 9 6 4 5 6 3 2 7 3 92 99 4 66 36 33 5 664 737 20.
How many even numbers are immediately following another even number?
How many even nos. are immediately followed by 2 even nos.?
4. CONCLUSION DRAWING & LOGICAL REASONING
I didn�t even read the conclusion drawing questions because time was running out. I solved only 2 logical reasoning (2 small ones) and moved on to the next section, as there was no sectional cut-off.
5. QUANTITIVE APTITUDE.
It was almost 1:10 p.m when I touched this section. I managed to solve only 5 before time ended. This part consisted of problems from Percentage, Ratio and Proportion, Profit-loss etc.
After that I took a calculated risk and in the last minute I marked almost 4-5 questions about which I was not so sure, thinking if luck helps me then it will get me 4-5 marks. But it was too risky so, it will be better if you people don�t try it�.. You don�t need to answer them all. Try to answer at least 30-35 questions and believe me that�s enough. The cut-off generally stays around 25 depending on the level of compitition.
At around 4:30 our result was out�.. Among total 3500+ candidates from 41 engg. colleges of West Bengal 178 was selected. And I was lucky enough to be one of them. We were called in to fill-up the H.R form and attend the ppt. In the H.R form some topics were like: 1. Frank assessment of yourself. 2. Your achievements. 3. Long-term and short-term goals. 4. What do you seek from a job.
And a few more. After this form fill-up we had to wait long before the ppt atlast started at 7:45 p.m. I didn�t listen to anything because by then I had no energy left in me. So, that�s all for 15th�.
We had our technical & HR interviews on 18-04-07. After a long wait again, I was called in for the Technical round at around 2:00 p.m.
TECHNICAL INTERVIEW:
It was an easy going one. At first he asked me to introduce myself then to tell something about I-FLEX. I told him everything I�ve learned from Internet about I-flex. He was impressed by my answers and asked me to solve 4 problems of quantitive aptitude. I was able to answer only the first 3 as the last one was a problem on infinite G.P series and I�ve forgotten all those formulas. So, he gave me another one from A.P series and said, � It�s your last chance!!!!!!!!��. Thank god, at that point I was able recall some formulas of A.P and eventually to solve that problem and grab the �last chance�. He was very happy to see that I solved that and asked me to wait outside for the HR round. So, at that point it was clear to me that I�ve cleared the tech round because only those people were asked to wait who cleared the tech interview.
H.R ROUND:
Within 5 minutes I went to give the HR. The lady HR was cool. Intvr: Have you got your lunch ?
Me: No, mam.
Intvr: Why? It almost 3:00 p.m.(With a smile)
Me: Actually I thought to have it after the interview.
Intvr: Have you got any energy left in you, after this long hours? .( Again with a smile)
Me: Yes, a bit. (Now I gave a smile too!)
Intvr: Do you have any breaks in your studies?
Me: No, mam.
Intvr: Ok, then introduce yourself.
Me: answered and impressed her.
Intvr: Now tell me what do you know about I-FLEX.
Me: answered and impressed her.
Intvr: Tell me something about your family and school life.
Me: Answered. (It is always good to feel proud when talking about parents, so, I did. And she again appreciated my answer.)
Intvr: What are your short-term goal & long-term goal.
Me: I told my short-term goal but I forgot what I�ve prepared as long-term goal. So, after telling my short-term goal I started like �life is very dynamic, so in this fast changing life I don�t like to set-up long-term goals; I setup short-term ones and by achieving them I want to go up the professional ladder. And I�m also a believer of slow but steady growth �.
Intvr: Hmmm!!!!!!! That�s very good. So, what camera do you have? (Because I�ve written in the HR form that my hobby is Photography.)
Me: Nikon F; a 1965 model.
Intvr: What kind of pictures you like to take?
Me: I like to click silhouettes. And when I�ll visit Agra I�ll surely take a silhouette of Taj Mahal. J
Intvr: (She again smiled and tilted her head in appreciation) Do you like music?
Me: Yes mam!!! My favorite band is �Poets of the Fall.�
Intvr: What song do you like most?
Me : �Carnival of Rust�.
Intvr:J That�s impressive.
Intvr: Do you believe in god?
Me: (With a smile) My mother is my goddess and I believe her.
Intvr: (She was actually amazed by my answer) So, you love your mom?
Me: Yes!!!!! mam.J
Intvr: Whats the meaning of tour name?
Me: Answered.
Intvr: Do you like to travel?
Me: Yes!!!!! I do.
Intvr: Do you have any problem in getting relocated?
Me: No!!! mam.(Now at this point I was getting the wind that I�m selected.)
Intvr: So, that�s all for the day. Hope to see you soon again.
Me:J Thank you mam!!!!! For interviewing me�.
Intvr: Have a nice day!!!!!!!!!!!
At last at 6:45 p.m. our result got declared & by Almighty�s unlimited grace I was selected. Total 52 people were selected from 178, who cleared the apti.
So, all you people who are still waiting to be recruited; keep your cool because it is the greatest test of patience. Don�t worry about your those friends who got placed on the very first day. They had luck and you didn�t. And your days will come soon. Always believe that �HE CONQURES, WHO ENDURES.� So, keep your fingers crossed, keep practicing (although it feels very boring to brush up the same thing again and again) and lets hope for the best!!!!!!!!!!
ALL THE BEST !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
