Placement Saga By Aaskti

Hello everyone , this is my first post on the ESG Network . Since the network is committed to e-counseling of students and being recently placed what topic could have been better than my experience of campus placement . The journey of TATA TECHNOLOGIES LTD. began with its arrival announcement on our college portal . Since TATA is a big name in itself and TTL being a (earlier) part of TATA MOTORS , I decided to try my luck in it . A thorough search about its placement procedures lead to revelation of certain basic but important facts as in - it is a JAVA based company , they have approx 60% cut-off in the first round with no negative marking , first round would be online with different set of questions for each candidate and there will be certain portion from general knowledge as well .Though I was quite confident with my preparation of aptitude section but the general knowledge always leaves me sweating .

So I decided to win my battle with the less dreadning JAVA (which happens to be my favorite programming language) . I quickly collected all the previous placement papers of different colleges in which TTL had visited earlier. In, this blogs helped me a ton . Along with core JAVA ample number of questions were from ADVANCE JAVA and DBMS as well . Though ADV JAVA sounds quite dreadful but the questions were of quite basic level . Since I did not have enough time to go through the thick COMPLETE REFERENCE FOR JAVA and the DBMS books , I dusted my APTECH handbooks and went through them from cover-to-cover . This really helped me to recollect the important concepts as well as refreshed some forgotten terms . To regain my confidence in database , I referred to my all time favorite Sumita Arora (which I have been using since my +2 days).

The entire placement procedure was scheduled for two days . The company had decided to screen the students on the basis of objective questions section and the selected students would be allowed for the PRE-PLACEMENT TALK . Though most of the companies give their pre-placement talk initially to introduce students to their culture and environment.
