Interview Experiences

Round 1: Online Assessment (NQT)

The test had sections on Numerical Ability, Verbal Ability, Reasoning, and Advanced Coding. The coding section had two questions: one easy (Array based) and one medium (String manipulation). Managed to solve 1.5 coding questions.

Round 2: Technical Interview (45 Mins)

• Introduce yourself and your projects.
• Explain the logic used in the Hotel Management project (Java backend).
• What is Polymorphism? Give a real-life example.
• Write an SQL query to find the second highest salary.

Round 3: HR & Managerial (15 Mins)

Basic questions like "Are you willing to relocate?" and "Why TCS?". The panel was very friendly. Result was announced after 2 weeks.

Round 1: Technical & Domain Knowledge

They focused heavily on B.Com syllabus concepts. The interviewer asked detailed questions about finalization of accounts, GST return filings, and Tally ERP shortcuts.

• What is the difference between Provision and Reserve?
• How do you pass an entry for advance tax paid?
• Questions on Royalty accounts and depreciation methods.

I fumbled on the GST questions, which I think was the reason I didn't make it to the next round. My advice: Brush up on current taxation laws!
