My Dream Job

Ya this is wat I call it. After so much hustles and disappointments of losing out my second last final round of Adobe interview , I was actually a bit gloomy… but then The Adobe experience was awesome, there were totally 7 rounds, one written test and six technical interviews. I cleared written test + 4 rounds and lost n 5 th round.
Anyways it was a good experience cant forget Ravi Kiran and Praveen of Adobe who were my interviewers in technical rounds , who screwed me royally and made me realize my limitations. Which are gonna be taken care in near future .

Now coming to the good part, I got a notification mail from VTRACU, this was a
Placement Program which was a joint venture between our VTU university and Meritrac ,
Which is a leading Placement agency.

I had written the Meritrac test 2 months back during my 8th sem itself, never knew tat it wud be so benfecial.
The Meritrac test itself was a long process , 2 written tests verbal + quantitative, HR round and GD(which turned out to be speak abt a topic ).

The mail suggested us to set preferences to the companies which are tied up with the VTRACU program.
The companies were Accenture,Mindtree,TCS,TESCO, Subexetc…..

My preference was 1.Accenture 2. Mindtree 3.TCS ….

After a week I got a mail saying tat july 30 is my interview process and Accenture interview time was scheduled.

It was at RNSIT college which I knew quite well , I waited a long time before the first round cud start, and then the time came when my name was called out.

The GD topic was “ Should the mobile phones be banned in colleges?”
Bingo…….. cos first of all I speak a lot and this topic was pretty interesting even though I hate mobiles being banned cos am addicted, I spoke “for” the topic that is “should be banned” .
I cleared the round I spoke well J

My next round was technical round, a strict young guy was my interviewer he somehow managed to greet me with a smile, and he said gimme a minute to go thru your resume, and then he asked abt my MS acticivites, final year proj and then he started shooting questions abt oops,c,c++, and abt Ajax,and .NET which normally they wudnt ask but he started may be cos of my proj.

After a while he said “ya u r done”, I asked him “have I cleared?” cos each and every round was a elimination round, and since he never smiled or nodded I never knew whether i was ryt or wrong.
He gave a smile and said “don’t worry” , you will be notified.

The meritrac volunteer came upto me after few minutes and said u can go for the “HR Round “ ,phew….. it was such a relief.

I went in for the HR round there was a sweet lady with cute smile, I forgot to mention she was damn cute ,young and beautilfull J .

She started with few qs abt my family and then my schooling, and then she asked why did I give Accenture had first preference and stuff.

Some qs regarding company and then she asked bat MS activities and whether I had other job offers I told her abt UST .

And then she went on for a while, and said ok “you are done”.

I went out was waiting with my fingers crossed to hear the Good news, I was a bit confident by then tat I wud clear.

After some time I was called and sent to a room where I had to sign my Offer letter, I cudnt control my excitement, by the time they were getting the papers ready, I messaged my parents and close friends abt it.

After few minutes I signed the offer letter. And was officially now employed to my company J
