Ridiculous placement interview questions ever! Ridiculous placement interview questions ever! Attachment 15830 It's the placement season again! You'll be noticing a lot of those big companies hogging on the campuses all across the country to recruit the "brightest minds" in India! Have you started preparing for the aptitude tests, technical tests, technical interviews and all that? Well, ideally you should be quite confident by now about your preparations. But, there's one more thing you should prepare yourself for! Or maybe, you can't prepare yourself for this, you just gotta experience it first hand.

So, here are the 5 most annoying interview questions ever and a likely response you might wanna give! Q.) Dude! Okay, so would you give me a job if i tell you how many girls/boys i've slept with? Q.) Duh! On second thoughts, is this the part where you expect me to go on and on and on to praise your company, tell you how obliged i would be to work for it, how it was my dream to work for you guys and all that sh*t i crammed up last night? Q.) Good lord! Because of this very reason! Engineering education in tatters - problems, jugaads & solutions! Attachment 10577“I got placed in Infy today. The Infy team visited my campus for recruitment and selected close to 135 students; 75 from CS & IT, 60 from other branches. Wait a sec, so many from non-CS/IT background! And these are students, who can’t even write a simple C program. Did I just waste the last 4 years of my life? Did these core branch students also waste their 4 years as now they are getting into an IT company??

The education system in India is literally in tatters. Let’s take a macroscopic view of the problems and try to find out solutions for them. A. It further revealed that there are considerably more number of male students pursuing engineering and that the ratio of male-to-female engineers (1.96), is much lower than that of other countries, such as United States of America (4.61) The report was compiled after sampling more than 55,000 engineering students who graduated in 2011 from 250+ engineering colleges across multiple Indian states. Attachment 10574 B. C. D. B. Thinking of Studying in America? Plan Early for the US Universities. Attachment 4277 IT’S THAT time of the year when students getting ready for college or leaving college for the next stage in their academic life, are asking themselves big questions. Should I go abroad, or stay here? What colleges should I apply to? How do I apply? Are there any scholarships or financial aid programmes I can look at? To answer these, and the questions students may not even anticipate, the United States- India Educational Foundation (USIEF) held a three- day counseling session at the Delhi Book Fair in Pragati Maidan last week.

“These sessions are deliberately held at this time because this is when decisions are taken,” says Renuka Rajarao, Country Coordinator, Educational Advising Services, USIEF. With over 4,000 universities in the US, zoning in on a few is tough. Here’s how, according to Rajarao, you must narrow down the final list of schools you want to apply to:- First, focus on your education and career goals.
