Tech Mahindra placement experience
WRITTEN TEST:
Total of 170 questions in 80 minutes. It's an online based
test. There were a total of eleven sections.
70 questions were from Logical reasoning &
Quant(section-1). Logical & Verbal reasoning(section-2) and Arithmetic
Aptitude questions(section-3).
100 questions were from English (next 8 sections). Questions
were from articles, prepositions, error spotting, sentence correction, reading
passage, confusable words etc.
I completed all the English questions in 20min first and
that gave me a plus point to finish 1-3 sections properly.
Questions were very easy (I prepared only from RS Agarwal
book) and all that is needed was to manage time and being quick in answering
them.
Around 150 students appeared for
the test and 50 students cleared it. (Don’t know the cut off exactly).I was one
among them.
After this, we were given a form
to fill and one essay topic to write an essay. (This was not an elimination
round but just was to know our written skills. Our topic was “is discipline an
important quality? If yes, support).
