Accenture has five selection rounds, all are elimination rounds
Round I
This is an aptitude round, there are 3 sections,
Section I: English (Vocab, Comprehension etc)
Section II: Aptitude (R.S. Agarwal should be suffecient)
Section III: Reasoning, pickup any GRE book , it should be sufficient
The aptitude round is pretty much simple
Round II
THis is a GD round, this is also elimination, SO don’t forget to make a
point, they don’t normally see how relevant you speak, its just that you
should speak something and make yourself heard.
Round III
This is an HR round, this is also an elimination round, it will be a casual
talk, for god sake don’t say any thing contoversial and don’t contradict
yourself.
Round IV
This is a technical round, they will normally ask you questions pertaining
your field of interest and will focus on the projects that you have done,
you should be able to talk about your projects with confidence.
Round V
This is a combination of hr and technical , again the same stuff is
repeated,you need to just hold on , coz you are almost there.
The bottom line is that you should be a good communicator and show
confidence,
This is the selection procedure :
1)Test :normal agarwal apptitude,English synonyms,RC’s……….(cat pattern basically)
2) GD: ANy general topic picked (make sure u make one valid pt and make ur voice heard int eh crowd of 10 ppl)
3)Hr round: normal Hr Ques(goals long& short ,background,strenghs, weaknesses)
4)Technical rnd:Questions abt the projects u have done(B very well prepared with it)
5)Final rnd:Questions abt ur fav topic(i picked c/c++) .
The questions asked were from the following
sections:
1)numerical :
profit & loss, percentages, mixtures,
time and distance, time and work.
2)analytical :
venn diagrams ( if in a class of 40
students, 10 speak only telegu, 20 speak both telegu
and tamil….), probability, drawing conclusions…
3) verbal : was basically easy — just synonyms,
choose the correct one.., passage.
Section 1

a written exam was conducted on 8 in meerut consisting of a written
test with five sections & approx. 75 minutes duration.three sections were based on
topics such as verbal,quant.& reasoning.rest two were questions were from C & C++.but
there was individual time limit for each section.
next round was a h.r. interview on 21 in delhi.the interviewer asked just
three questions as follows:
why was there a gap in your education after 10+2?
what do u know ab’t accenture?
why do u want work for accenture?
next round was a technical interview on same day & all the questions were
based on
final year project & microprocessor (mainly interrupts & interfacing).
as far as h.r. is concerned be sure to have a good & convincing answer if u
have a gap in eduacation.next important thing i feel that he was looking for was
confidence.
regarding technical e.c. students should prepare microprocessor.also questions
were asked on signals & systems & common C programs(palindrome,largest of three
numbers etc). from other candidates.just keep u’r basics clear.also all freshers should
have a good knowledge of final year project.
