Facing the Technical and HR Round 

• Prepare your subjects such as C, C++, Java, Python, DBMS, OS, SE, CN. 

• You have to learn at least one "Object Oriented Programming Language". 

• Data Structures and Algorithms is very important. 

• OOPS Concepts are very important. 

• DBMS is very important especially Joins, Normalization. 

• Practice SQL Queries. 

• Mention things only you know in resume. 

• All the questions will be picked based upon your resume. 

• Prepare your projects which you have mentioned in resume really well. 

• In HR prepare best answer for “Introduce yourself” question. Include your skills, Internships, projects that you are confident in. Because your next question is always based on what you answer.
