2. GD - attended = 350
my topic was "womens r mens - who r better managers" - we discussed & selected it..
my panel consisted of 9 students, our moderator is a lady, she encouraged us a lot
one guy initiated and he talked for a minute
next guy started and talked for 2 mins. his points worthless, HR stopped him. (result : eliminated)
next i started and said that neither men or women, only the qualities with them matters,
then some 3 talked....... later i mentioned that indira nooye - CEO of pepsi is a lady & she guides pepsi towards profit........
later those who earlier talked again quoted their points, then i started & i told a story that "A child went to a balloon vendor
and asked that which color goes higher, he replied that the color doesnt matters only air inside matters".......
then moderator called names of those who didnt talked and asked about their views (result : eliminated)
----------------results came after lunch-------------only 3 got selected,& i am the one in that------------
some other topics:
old india vs new india
impact of media on youth
terrorism
love marriages
bpo,s in india
1. dont make hr to call ur name, to speak
2. speak within 3-4 to grab attention of moderator
3. dont talk tooooo much total gd time is 5-10 mins.
4. give eg. or small stories or short proverbs only if it is related to topic......
if u cleared GD in satyam (ur gd marks also is considered in Hr) and if ur good to tackle hr's questions, then easily u can clear Hr....
3. HR - attended = 152
they will provide one satyam form like a complete resume, no need of ur resumes, they asked to mention current arrears,one of my collegemate mentioned his arrear and his hr told that him that he wont select him bcz of his current arrear -- even he had 1.
also the application has questions to fill like ---- why satyam shoul hire u, after 5 years where can i see u, wat makes u to aspire to satyam.
i am a non-it student (E & i) so they didnt asked about C, computer based questions but its my case dont always rely on this.....

finally any questions - i asked about training and the domain.......
totally my hr was around 5 mins, but those who went earlier faced 10 - 15 mins.
