Amdocs's placement experience

In this post , I want to share my experience of cracking Amdocs which was a combined product of god's grace and mutual cooperation ;-) .

Before Amdocs came in the campus , I already had the offer from GroupSoft , so , I was not fretting but yes,was wishing to crack it. 

Abstract details:

·         Total rounds- 3(online test, technical and hr interview)

·         Online test is conducted by MeriTrac and duration is 2 hours

·         There is no negative marking

·         The online test consist of different sections and to the best of my knowledge, there is a sectional cut-off.

·         The domain of the question paper are :

Ø  English comprehension (level was quite good )

Ø  Logical questions (level was good)

Ø  Quantitative questions (rs aggarwal is sufficient)

Ø  c/c++/java questions (You have to choose 1 language. I chose c language and I believe “Test your c skills” is more than enough to crack this section. Questions were mainly from pointers, bit-wise operators and outputs)

Ø  SQL (seriously very tough)

Ø  Unix (commands only. You can bank upon  Sambita Das unix book)

Tips for online exam:

As I have already mentioned that most probably there is a sectional cut off , so friends you can’t compromise with any section.

I had a group of three and we had different forte (I had very primitive knowledge of unix still I cleared the section …don’t think need to tell how ;-) )

If possible, try to crack it in a group (plz note that favorable ambience is not guaranteed always. May be a strict invigilator come at your time. So hope for the best and prepare for the worst)

Questions are same for all, just their order is changed, so be attentive.

 Technical interview:

Only 1 person was there. The questions were:                                                                                             

 ØExplanation of  final year B.Tech project(Questions from it)

 ØCurrent thesis work in M.Tech(Questions from it)

    Ø The challenges I faced in the projects and how I dealt with them

 ØA code -> to arrange the no.s in descending order(yes I guess I was lucky that day J)

 ØSome simple SQL queries.

Note :  I was lucky that my technical interviewer didn’t ask any question from unix but another interviewer who was taking interviews in another room, was asking unix questions also(commands and shell scripts)

HR interview:

Two people were there.

ØThe 1^st and basic question->Describe yourself. I mentioned about my +ve traits only,so,they asked if I have any –ve point also and what I am doing to tackle it?

ØWhy Amdocs?

ØThey mainly asked questions from what I had described about myself

ØHR was mainly an interaction session,they were briefing about the company and opportunities there.

ØAt last they asked me if I want to ask any question from them,so, be prepared for it too…(imp)

 All the best guys…J

case 39

"Why all the bad things happen with good people?" , this movie made me ponder over this. Has the Lucifer and his army grown so powerful that even the almighty is finding it hard to confine them? Although in the end, "light conquers the darkness","good defeats the bad", but at the cost of so much sacrifices and trouble:-(. Hey guys, no more adages ;-). This movie is fine. If you have flair for ghostly movies,then you can bang on it.

tada...

She's out of my league

Hilarious romantic love story. This was my second movie of Jay Baruchel and I am really impressed with this fluke ;-)(a lanky creature having galore acting skills).

The genre is not novel, its the same dork gets the diva, but the presentation is really refreshing.

I recommend it for cynical singles, friends don't despair:-)

chat application in java

I recently created a chat application in java which is based on client-server interaction model.

The server can't handle too much load(at max 50) as I am not using any database.

Following features of java are exploited :

*MultiThreading
*Sockets
*ArrayList

The server application is running on the IIITA server(atleast 23*6 if not 24*7)

I am attaching the link to download the "client application"

click me

Its not a big project but just the basic one which is playing with sockets and threads. If any one needs its source code, let me know.

see ya in the chat box ;)

Devil(2010)

 

















If you love to see supernatural activities on screen, then its indispensable for you to watch it. Five people with not so clean social backgrounds, stuck in a lift and began to feel precarious about each other as they were creeping towards their end by...(hehehehe). Unveil it yourself. This movie deserves more rating from IMDb, don't know how this site rates
NOTE OF CAUTION: THIS IS NOT A GHOSTLY MOVIE.

Tees Mar Khan(TMK)

A complete entertainer. I want to frame it like this " A good meal without sumptuous dessert". Yes Akki was loud, Katrina was doing over-acting, ending was weak still you could find a big natural smile on your face throughout the movie. Farah is good in spoofing and this time she has taken SRK to the task. And for the detractors , I want to say , in this world the toughest job is to bring smile on others' face, if you people are looking for some logic, then go and attend some science conclaves , this movie is for bollywood lovers who know that they have to left their brain at home while rushing the multiplexes.
SOME MIGHT NOT AGREE WITH ME REGARDING TMK, I CANNOT HELP THEM AFTER ALL THEY ARE BORN IN A DEMOCRACY TOO, THEY CAN ALSO SPEAK ANYTHING, NO MATTER IF ITS LOGICAL OR NOT ;-)

powerset program in java

The program was to find the power set of the given set . It was given to us as a lab work, i guess it might be useful for others as software community should always look for "REUSABILITY"



import java.io.*;

class powerset
{
   
    public static void main(String args[]) throws Exception
    {
       BufferedReader br=new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(System.in));   
       int i;char buff[]=new char[30];
       String str[]=new String[1024];
   
       str[0]="phi";
   
    System.out.print("Enter the no. of elements in the set : ");
    int x=Integer.parseInt(br.readLine());
    System.out.println();
    double n=Math.pow(2,x);
   
        for(i=0;i<x;i++)
        {
        System.out.print("Enter the "+(i+1)+" element of the set : ");
        String s=br.readLine();
        buff[i]=s.charAt(0);
        System.out.println();
        }
   
       
    for(i=1;i<n;i++)
    {
       
    str[i]=Integer.toString(i,2);
    int z=str[i].length();
    for(int j=0;j<x-z;j++)
    str[i]="0"+str[i];       
       
    }
       
        System.out.println("THE POWER SET IS : ");   
        System.out.println(str[0]);
       
        for(i=1;i<n;i++)
        {
            for(int j=0;j<x;j++)
            {
            char chk=str[i].charAt(j);
            if(chk=='1')
            System.out.print(buff[j]);
               
               
            }
           
        System.out.println();
           
           
           
           
      }
       
       
       
       
       
       
       
       
       
       
        }
   
   
    }
