VITIANS,

As Shyam has already highlighted, preparing from the previous papers holds the key to the

sucess of Placement!!!

Papers are already being send out to the groups...please make use of that and prepare accordinglyand if you have lots of previous papers then plz start ur preparations from the most recent papers.

Clearing the written test is not everything, Interviews are equally important and for that justfollow what Shyam has mentioned in the mail, again stressisng on the importance of C and C++

for CSE related branches. Having a mention of C and C++ for non-cse students is an added

advantage. Interviews again could be of Tech and HR interview.

For TCS especially, when u prepare from all old papers ur almost thro in the written test. Soplease dont miss any of them.

Papers are already being send out to the groups...please make use of that and prepareaccordingly.

Diwakar&Co would discuss about handling the Tech and Hr interviews once ull come back from

vacation.

All the Best to all of ull!!!!

Thanks,

Pratheep.

Hi Friends,

This is Shyam 2004 passout from VIT.Hope some of you guys may remember

me after placement talk conducted by us recently. Since many of youpeople had your exams and not able to make it to the presentation i

just wanted to convey few important points you must follow before

arriving into the grand placement season of VIT by May.

How to Use The May Vacation For the Placement Preparations:

Let me categorize the preparation into two categories.

Written Test

Tech Interview Preparation

Written Test:

Step 1: Quantitative Aptitude Preparations:

Sit and go through all the important chapters in R.S.Agarwal

Quantitative Aptitude book. Practice all the examples and exercisequestions. After finishing this, go through the Short cut methods

given in any MBA preparation book by author "Abhijit Guha"

Step 2: Verbal and Analytical Reasoning Preparations:

Go through the GRE book by Barrons (12th) edition which has theAnalytical and critical Reasoning section.Practice all the questions

in this section and in TCS you would get analytical and critical

reasoning questions only from this. Your seniors used to memorize theanswers for the toughest (Analytical & Critical reasoning) questions

as it helped them to give the answers fast in the online test.

Learn all the words given GRE Barrons book or atleast try to learn

High Frequency words list in Barrons book and all the words given in

the previous years question papers.

Step 3: Puzzles Preparation

Now Puzzles are not frequently appearing in written test paper ofInfosys.So puzzles just practice it as a safety measure. You could

find one or 2 puzzles just show up in some companies question papers.

The standard books for puzzles practice are the ones written byShakuntala Devi and George Summers

Step 3: Technical Written Test PreparationTechnical written test would be mostly based on C.Please go through

Test Your C Skills book by Yashavant P. Kanetkar.Few companies would

conduct test in OS,DBMS and C++ and for this if you are non computer

students go through the previous year Q paper of this companies.


45/54

Step 4:

Practice all the previous years question papers of TCS, CTS, andWipro etc.This is a very step you should follow without fail.

Technical Interview Preparation:

Step 5: C and C++ are just two key words which could always find a

place in any level of company.

Computer Department Students: Make yourself strong in C and C++.Should

be well comfortable with playing around OOPS concepts and Pointers in

C.Should able to writePrograms for implementing data structures like Linkedlist, Doubly

Linked list ,stack and queue.

Non computer department student with C and C++ in Curriculum: Try tofirst cover the Computer subjects you had in your curriculum, most of

the department would have C in their curriculum so don't fail to learnC.If you don't have C++ in your curriculum atleast try to learn basic

OOPS concepts like inheritance ,polymorphism and encapsulation.

Non computer department students with no C and C++ in Curriculum:Please ask your friends from computer departments to teach you the

basics of C and C++ and you can also learn yourself with the books

written by Yashavant P. Kanetkar AND Bala kuruswamy.

Step 6: Make yourself strong in fundamentals of all the core subjects

of your department. For ex: EEE students should be good in embeddedsystems and other core subjects and ECE students should be good in IC,

Signals system subjects etc.

So your duty is to find the core subjects of your department and get

yourself strong in basics.

Step 7: Learn the subjects which you mention as Area of Interest inresume with the most possible extent you can. You should always go an

extra mile in your area of interest. For computer based students don't

mention in your area of interest as only c and c++ unless you havedone some extreme programming in this languages, as a computer based

student it is by default you should be good in this 2 languages.

For non computer students if you mention c and c++ in your area of

interest it is an added advantage. You can always mention the subjects

from your department in the area of interest and you should be strong

in that.

Take CareShyam.

All,

Greeting from me to u all guys and gals!!!!

Hope all ull guys are busy preparing for the campus interviews that is soon

on ur way.

Could not come for any of the preparatory talks since I am

in Irving(Texas,US) on a intra company deputation(for TCS!!!!!)....

For so many days I was talking abt VIT to company executives. Let me take

this as an chance to campaign for TCS to all Vitians!!!!!!!!(for a change)

Guys it been always the fact that we look only for MNCs and ignore otherIndian companies. It has been a practise for all of us to condier and think

that MNCs are far better than Indian companies only becos of the attractive

pay package they provide.

Well guys let me tell you all, initially pay package that the MNCs pay are

high, thats for sure no doubts on that. But when you compare onsite chances

of indian company with that of a MNC, then Indian companies always edges

out MNCs. See guys ull need to understand the logic, MNCs route their

business to India only as an cost cut measure.

For eg. An MNC X has to pay each employee around $50approx per hour if it

was to function outside India...so that comes upto:

$50 * 22(working days in a month)*8(working hrs in a day)*41(rupee value

for a dollar) = Rs.360800

If the same MNC were to start a branch in India then the salary that they

would be paying its associates here would be just around Rs.40,000 to

Rs50,000 per month.(that too u will have tax deductions).

So as far as a MNC is concerend ur onsite chances is very very less.

But Indian companies especially TCS is not like that....

Some facts abt TCS onsite chances:

With me aroud 60 people got recruited by TCS from VIT thro on campus and


47/54


48/54

MOST INTERESTING NEWS AND FACT:

A VIT gal(2005 batch,recruited by oncampus from our college) with just 8

months of experience she has been deputed to UK for a intra comany transfer

by TCS for a period of 10 months!!!!!

Similarly the nature of job would never be different for an Indian company

and a MNC....becos for most of MNCs all its developement work is done at

onsite itself...only maintanence works comes to India!!!!!so type of projects a MNC has is no way different

from what TCS and other Indian companies has...

So do "u" want to join a MNC or TCS - an Indian Company with a foreign

outlook!!!!!

Dont wait....take a wise decision...come and join TCS and become a part of

Truly Indian company that would soon touch a milestone of 90,000 wrt Human

Resources....

One important incident that happened when i came to onsite:

I went to Bank of America for opening a account, when manager asked me if i

am a software engineer from India, I said yes....then next thinhe he said

was "Are u from TCS"!!!!i was amazed and asked him how he found out...hesiad out of the 720 new accounts that was opened in that branch for the

past three months(from March-2006), 574 accts were for TCS folks!!!!

Guys one more thing...any big colleges u take(NIT,IIT or Anna Univ)...TCS would be the first company to

recruit...and all students take up the TCS interview eventho they know that they would have many more

MNCs coming to their college....becos they know their talents can be properly utilised @ TCS...

so VITIANS...dont wait for MNCs that just recruit in very less no. but rather think twice and make use of

this oppurtunity of getting selected in TCS - Truly Global Company...

last but not the least recent survey for Onsite-offshore ratio states thatTCS tops the list of sending its employees to onsite!!!!

Thats why TCS is always Beyond the Obvious-----Experience the Certanity!!!!!

Thanks,

Pratheep.

Tata Consultancy Services, the worlds leading IT services, consulting and business process outsourcingorganisation, has been selected to help BT set up its 21st Century Network (21CN) Test Factory. The test

model is being designed and built to accurately reflect and test the planned live environment of 21CN and

features connections to associated Operational Support Systems.

TCS main role will be to automate processes in the Test Factory and deliver end-to-end test systems

integration and test programme management. This will enable overall quality assurance in the roll-out of

BTs network. The project will include inventory and configuration management, test automation and test

management tools.

TCS is partnering with best in class test and measurement vendors to deliver the Test Factory, including

Ixia to provide field proven IP-based Optixia hardware platform and applications to emulate profitable

Triple Play services and the transport network on which they are delivered. JDSU will provide its industry

leading testers. Lumenar Networks is implementing LabMagic, its industry-leading lab management

system while Mercury is providing its Mercury Quality Center solution hosted by Mercury ManagedServices. Spirent Communications will be the key test supplier to both broadband and voice domains of

the programme.

Adding TCS to the 21CN programme will buttress what is already a very strong project. 21CN brings

together hardware and software from an array of vendors, so testing that the components actually work

together as expected is a key task to which TCS can bring strong process, testing and OSS expertise,

said Jessica Figueras, Practice Leader, Service Infrastructure at Ovum.

We are excited to be a part of such a ground-breaking and world-renowned programme, said A.S.

Lakshminarayanan, VP and Country Manager, UK & Ireland for Tata Consultancy Services. 21CN is a

demanding project and we are confident that our expertise and in-depth knowledge of the

telecommunications market more than enables us to deliver sustained value for BT.

BT is currently designing its future networks and developing the equipment that it requires to make theoperation of 21CN as efficient as possible, said Tony Marson, Senior Analyst at Yankee Group. Working

with TCS to test this equipment and ensure it works at every stage of the design and deployment process

is pivotal to BTs successful delivery of the ground-breaking 21CN project, confirming BTs position as a

leader of the UK and global communications industry.

Testing is a critical aspect of the 21CN programme, ensuring that BT, and the telecoms industry as a

whole, has full confidence in the performance of the completed network, said Randy Tucker, director of

technology and testing, BT Wholesale Networks. In this capacity, TCS has shown that it has absolutely

the right capabilities for the job.

Tata Consultancy Services Positioned in the Leaders Quadrant for Business Intelligence Services by Top

Analyst FirmEvaluation Based on Completeness of Vision and Ability to Execute

Tata Consultancy Services (TCS) (BSE: TCS.BO, NSE: TCS.NI), a leading global IT services and

consulting firm, today announced that it has been positioned by Gartner, Inc. in the leaders quadrant for

the Magic Quadrant for Business Intelligence Services, North America, 2007 report.

In the report, Gartner evaluated 17 service providers across North America on the ability to execute and

completeness of vision.

The Business Intelligence and Performance Management (BIPM) practice brings the convergence of BI,

EAI and KM technology to provide an agile, efficient and adaptable solution for enterprise, said Dr.Santosh Mohanty, Global Head, BIPM Practice, TCS. This convergence of services has been driven by

industry demand and TCS has created a service oriented framework SOLAR to strategize and deliver

the BIPM solution for the enterprise. The SOLAR framework brings the right alignment of Integration,

Intelligence and Innovation and Process, Performance and Prediction. This report validates the

feedback and appreciation that we have received from our customers in addressing their business need

through BIPM solution strategy and delivery.

According to the Gartner report, "BI and performance management projects have significant impact

across an enterprise as well as at higher levels of the enterprise. Organizations seek to achieve business

value from the analysis of their information through the use of IT. The increasing investment by end-user

organizations in this area is driving growth for the related consulting and systems integration (CSI)

market. Gartner forecasts the market for these services to grow at a five-year compounded annual rate of

5.8% worldwide and reach more than $20 billion by 2010. This is at a similar rate of growth for the totalCSI market, which includes business application services, application development, infrastructure

services and so on."

The Gartner report stated, "Inclusion of CSI service providers in this Magic Quadrant resulted from

meeting several criteria. In particular, Gartner focused on companies offering services in North America.

The criteria are designed to select CSI companies that can match the increasing complexity of BI projects

that clients undertake. The market for BI consulting and integration services is a fragmented market

when looking for just technology staffing services. Companies evaluated here have the capabilities not


54/54

just for staffing but also to manage BI programs."
