Wipro Placement Experience and Process for Freshers - 2016

Wipro - one of the trusted brand and global leader in IT came to our college in Trivandrum, Kerala for campus recruitment. It conducted the process in three steps:

1. Aptitude Test and Essay writing
2. Technical Interview

Around 350 students appeared in the first step i.e. Aptitude Test.

The selection process was carried out in the following ways:

1. Aptitude Test

Students were divided into two groups for the test:

i. Toppers - Students with 85% marks and above.
ii. Non-toppers - Students with less than 85% marks but no

The test was organized by AMCAT.

Those in topper group were allowed to appear for Technical interview and HR Interview directly while non-toppers had to take all three steps.

Aptitude test consisted of -

a. Quantitative (15 minutes for 10 questions),
b. Logical Reasoning (15 minutes for 15 questions),
c. English (35 minutes for 25 questions)
d. Computer programming and debugging (15 minutes for 15 questions) (MCQ's).

Each section had a cutoff of 50%.

After completing these four sections, qualified 200 students had to proceed for essay writing round in which they had to write essay on given topic and the time given was 30 minutes for 300 words. Essay writing was to just check the grammar and typing speed.
