Accenture

Accenture 2007 papers conducted at various locations

We had Accenture recruitment team in my campus (BMSCE). Some 400 wrote test, 238 were selected for GD, 80 for tech interview, 60 for HR and finally 47.

1)first of all we had ppt which went on for a hour.

2)next we were sent to class room blocks to take up tests.. pls note that paper pattern was same as posted by many ppl. test duration was 65 mins and 58 questions. no techincal part in test. we had to write essay at the end. my topic was "your last 3 years at college".

3) then they asked us to wait for 1 hour, and finally shortlisted 238 for gd, PLS ..PLS.... note that GD is the main elimination round. for GD i had "infrastructure of bangalore" as topic. they see our approach, not our fluency nor how much u talk. be prepared in general topics guys!!!!! in my gd group out of 15 ppl they selected 3 (including me..)

4) next was technical for some n hr for other... once u have cleared GD.. then u r almost through... u should be confident enough . some times in technical u can expect hr questions.. for me following questions were asked
what is voip?
what is 3g?
what is use of modem?
and many common sense questions in tech ...

That same asked me some hr questions
introduce yourself.
why accenture?
what u knw abt accenture?
what will u do if i put u in testing?
(here be careful for this question... tell them that u want to stick to particular field and have a goal of long term in Accenture)
why 61% in engg.?? (had prepared well for this question)
then he asked any questions for him.... i asked him since rupee value increasing.. will it effect software engineers in india?
he was amazed with my question and gave a long answer.. i was quite satisfied and thanked him.. n left

5) once if you are thro in tech round they will call u for final round... which is just a formality.. some 3 questions were asked i answered... they asked me to wait till 7.30 and by god's grace i got thro Accenture. Before accenture i wrote 4 companies and dint get thro .. but i dint lose faith in myself..

2007 paper
I am frm Indore IPS coll... Accenture had a written exam in Inodre in my coll on 7th Sept and around 2000 ppl appeared.. it was a off campus stuff so very few got selected.. hardly 200.. I was one of them... then we had our interview, GD and process in Bhopal. There was a written exam.. a GD and 2 interviews.. techincal and HR.

The written had 3 section and they were the same as previoius papers so do go through as many papers u can.. and wat i did was i went thru this site that was all and i got all wat i needed.. so check everything here.

Then there was a GD first and the topic i had was "Should religion be brought in Education"... some other topics were "Cricket or hockey which shud be national game"... "E-Learning Vs. Conventional Learning".. The GD was a round where they notice u alot so be confident.. be alert and active... all u need is a bit of fluent English and confidence... talk the right thing and jus do enough so that u come in notice that shud do it. jus be confident and fluent.. thats wat i found the key point... we were 12 ppl put of which only 3 got thru including ME!!!

After the GD some ppl had HR some techincal... I had my techincal firsrt and since I am from Computers branch .. he aked me alot frm my subjects... like... Data communication (OSI)... Software Engg(SDLC)... techincal was for real and it was good... he made a Binary unsorted tree on paper and asked me to sort it with the whole procedure... then after that he wrote a matrix 3x3 ka contaning 123456789 and asked me to write the transpose of it.. i was happy at the simple Ques. but jus as i wrote it he said.. now write a C code to do the same...but fortunately i was able to do it... so have some practicle and clear approach.. thats wat they notice.. ur approach to a problem... he also asked abt OOPs concepts and its main points... then abt project and also if u have like a bit less % in ur 10th or 12th .. then be prepared to make up for it.. i had 69% in 12th and 60% in 10th so he siad "why so less in 10 12" ... i said "Sir i was young and not focused... but with time i realised the importance of education and responsibilties and so started improving myself... and so on...

After taht i had my HR which was hardly 5mins.. he asked abt me.. my background.. if i am ok with any terms and services.... and he asked me abt any year gap.. well ppl i have a Year back in my career after 2nd yr.. so i told him yes i do and gave a valid reason for it too... and it did it all.. before i was worried that a year gap mite lessen my chances.. but Accenture still took me means.. its ur personality and knowledge that matters and not marks.. provided u staisfy them.. and yes after the back my marks always went higher and i have a 70.4% degree in hand now!!... anyways don worry abt gaps and be confided!!!

Well after 5000 ppl apearing .. hardly 80 go selected and I am one of them.. :)!!!

To sum up i wud like to say.. be prepared for all kind of written exams with time management skills... be very confident alert and active in GD... have knwloedge of ur subjects... and remmber when u go to the interview... keep in mind.. its they who want a employee and not u who want a job... So be confident and show that grace in ur face,, with a smile to make them feel pleasant... so best of luck to all hope this was help and see u all there take care!!!

2007 papers

I got placed in Accenture on 18th Aug 2007 in Chandigarh Engg College, Chandigarh. If u r well focussed in each n every round u can get through..Around 5000 appeared 4 the test...828 cleared it...422 appeared 4 the interview nd 214 were finally selected.

I strongly believe that confidence marked by good communication skills is what Accenture people are looking for.

Accenture placement process consists of 4 rounds.
1).Written Test(with an essay)
2).Group Discussion
3).PPT 4 gd cleared.
4). i) HR/Technical interview
ii) HR/Technical interview

1)WRITTEN TEST
It comprised of 55 questions each of 1 mark.....The paper designed by Merittrac, was categorised into 3 sections. Although, there is no sectional cut-off. The cut -off during our time was 34. I managed 2 get 45 correct.

The three sections were:
1.General English
It included simple questions on articles,prepositions etc...nd 2 comprehensions (2 technical passages here)

2.Quantitave+Reasoning questions
It consisted of basic probability, blood relations, position (standing 4th from left ...)etc..type questions.

3.Concentration questions
Questions like match the the mathematical figures given,* is replaced by / like questions..5 questions were based upon finding out whether a person will be selected 4 this job depending upon certain prerequisites.

So, if plan ur time nd concentrate well, u can clear the written. After our written test, they told us to write an essay on "career in accenture". I just explained what are the core values of this company nd why a fresher like me should prefer joining accenture.

2) GROUP DISCUSSION
We were divided into groups of 12. In my group, all 12 were girls out of 4 (including me) were selected. The moderator said he will select on the basis of comm skills, thought process, nd audibility of voice. In the beginning he told us to jot down points in favour nd against for the topic "How much India has changed since u hv taken birth". After a minute or two, he said that there is a surprise 4 u. The topic is changed to "Should women be given employment in IT sector". He divided us into 2 groups : FOR ND AGAINST.

After few minutes the 2 gps had to present reverse views.
I gave 2 points in the middle. In the end, he gave a chance 2 speak to those who hd spoken less. I was also called 4 so. I gave Kiran Majumdar's example nd got selected. The results were declared by the moderator himself at the end of GD.

Other topics were bascis regarding IT sector nd general topics. The Meritrac team announced that there will b two interviews both can be hr /technical or combi of both.

4) (i) HR/TECHNICAL INTERVIEW
My first interview happened 2 be a Technical one. I was asked 2 questions regarding C (since I m frm ECE)...the questions were relating to pointers nd files. Abt files i didn't know. I plainly admitted that i dont know abt that. He then gave me a puzzle regarding distance -time. I solved that correctly. That ended my technical interview. The Coordinator gave me the result outside saying all d best 4 the next interview.

(ii) HR/TECHNICAL INTERVIEW
This Interview was purely HR taken by a lady HR.
1.Introduce urself.
2.Family background.
3.Top 3 IT companies in India
4.Why Accenture?
5.Ur hobbies

It lasted for 4/5 minutes. The Coordinator was handed the result nd he gave me the good news that I hv been selected. The Offer Letter was given to 214 students finally nd I feel myself privileged to get selected in an MNC like ACCENTURE.

2007 papers

ACCENTURE believes in havin a good English. So better improve yr English speakin skills...many ppl were thrown in HR just because they werent able to speak Eng properly or may be they had done many grammatical mistakes in ESSAY writing....

1.APTITUDE TEST (55q in 1hr) & ESSAY WRITING
2.GD
3.TI
4.PI

1. APTITUDE TEST:
do chk as many papers from net....n read more n more questions....so tht u get a proper idea abt howz paper and further prepare yrself for the same.. I did the same....day before test i used to browse thru those papers, reviews n NO RS or any stuff like tht...though many of my frnds did refer to RS....may help...but not necessary....

APT includes da same ie verbal, quant, logic..
within verbal 2 passages (go for it atlast), further choose the correct sentence or wring one from those 4 sentences mentioned.. then bit of fill in blanks for fillin appropriate words...(bit vocabs req here)
over n above if u have good grasp over English i dont thk u really need to put in much efforts...

As far as quant is concerned....there are some 5-6 venn diag related qs
further some of data sufficiencies...
logic is easiest ....go for it at first. u r supposed to identify same options for eg: which of these are same
1>123.8989 2>123.8998 3>123.8998
mark 1. if 1st and 2nd are same
2. for 2nd and third same
3. 1,2,3 are same
4. none are same

so here ans 2.
der r some other qs as well in logic...but most of them r gettable.....dont worry!!!!

Now how to crack.....
see 55qs in 1 hr
2 big passages(1 gen techy other non techy)
normally cutoff 35 out off 55
so now solve all qs in paper whichever reqs less time....but do try to solve from each section....i dont know but ya they may consider sectional cutoff.....so better be cautious

Once APTs got over...u are supposed to write ESSAY for just 5min
I know u might gettin panicky but dont worry...topics are very simple ..i got IT INDUSTRY IN INDIA...
generally topics are WHY ACCENTURE...IT GROWTH...normally reltd to IT

ACCENTURE GD & INTERVIEW - 10 SEP 2006
Hey,
Thanx for so good response and your lovely wishes.
GD topics:
they were providing the topics as per ur suggestions but few hr managers were
providing some different one. mostly topics i herd were as follows
1. Indian population is bane or boon.
2. pectisides of pepsi and coke
3. reservation conflict
4. can india be super power
5. ball tampering hair case
6. pink Vs blue.
it depens on you also that what do you chose there but most of the members use to
opt current topics hence it is my suggestion to all seekers that prepare hard on
current topics. now pay attention on few things while gd it is imp than above things.
come up with soft voice and strong points.
1. say confidently
2. mark your fluency and pronounciation
3. speek in pleasant voice and only when find turn and for that use manner raise
your hand it shows curtasy.
4. do not make fish market
5. address group rather than gd conductor
6. try to iniciate with permission and wish the group
7. pay attention in gd while discussion
8. donot cross any one
_____________________________________________________________________
3
9. mind your body language you may read allan pease body lang for the same.
10.at the time of exit do not forget to wish have a nice day to gd coordinator.
INTERVIEW
i think in any interview only confidence plays. say what ever with confidence not
overcofidence. pay attention on following things
1. confidence
2. eye contact
3. voice should be pleasant
4. speak with slow speed and effectively using hands gesture
5. smile must at the time of entry, wrong answer,exit
6. show that you can sacrifice every thing for companyCh etanaS
7. dress should be formal.light shirt dark pant. for girls cotton suit is prefered.
8. they also see your interest towards software and company. visit company profile
properly.
9. stats should be very much required
For HR interveiw you should have answers prepared in advance like tell me abt your
self, role model n why, drop reason, goal short or long, study plan, diffculty in life,
project exp and your contribution in same.why to change your field (for those who r
not from cs or mca bkground), why ....company.
i think this will suffice you if not read few books. gd and pi book by jacob publication.
author i dont remember.
u guys know very well what to do next one more thing is your attitute should be
positive always.
they had asked very less no of questions to me hence not imp to disscuss here the 3
qus's answer i had given keeping company into consideration. I think it was only the
reason they did not ask more than that and i got selected.
ACCENTURE PATTERN - 27 JUN 2006 – MUMBAI
Hi
I got placed in Accenture from the campus held at vidyavihar on 27th June.
There were around 500 students appeared for the aptitude test and 200 got
shortlisted.
Here's the pattern
_____________________________________________________________________
4
1. APTITUDE TEST
There were 3 sections 1.verbal ability 2.aptitude(maths) 3.analytical ability(puzzles).
The test was quiet easy. don't do just quantitative apt. also brush up on verbal and
analytical
also if u get some CAT books then it's good. Che tanaS
2. GD
GD was ok. They see u speak something and speak confidently. Our topic was
'Money in
turn will give u academics and academics in turn will give you a bright
career.'
3. HR
In HR they ask the usual questions but many were eliminated in this round. so the
key is
to be confident and gather as much information as possible about Accenture.To some
people
some technical questions were also asked in HR and many got nervous. I think they
just
wanted to see how u react. so don't be nervous if they start asking you technical
questions in HR.
4. Technical
It was also an elimination round. Some got eliminated in this round but it depedns
on the
interviewer also. to some students very tricky questions were asked. they asked
mostly about
your project and if u start well then after that they ask u very simple questions. they
also ask
about C, C++,Software engg(Testing). http://www.ChetanaSinterview.com
Note: Try to score high in Aptitude test. If your score is high and if you have cleared
the GD
then by Technical Interview is just a formality. so All The Best to all of u! may all of
you get
good placements.
ACCENTURE PATTERN - 27 APR 2006
Hi
_____________________________________________________________________
I got placed in Accenture on the 27th Apr 2006 through campuss.
There were 263 of us who attented the aptitude test @ 13.00 on 27th Apr of which
25 were selected.
Aptitude was very simple. It consisted of 4 parts: Quantitative Aptitude, Verbal,
Logical Reasoning and finally Essay writing.
QA consisted of mostly questions involving venn diagrams like:
- 20 people speak french, 25 speak english, total no of people-60,5 spoke neither
french nor english...how many spoke both?...similar ones...
- if $ represents * , * represents +, + represents - , find 6$5*6+12...
Not the same questions..only the pattern is important...
Verbal and logical reasoning were straight forward...consisted of simple
synonyms and fill in the passage with articles...very easy ones..
Essay writing...Topic given was: Govt's stand on Reservation Policies
in educational institutions...
Next round was GD: Topic: Salman Khan's Arrest was it justified...
They mainly see ur communication skills...Make sure u talk something clearly and
confidently..
Next round was HR: Questions like Y Accenture..and similar ones were asked...A no.
of technical questions from C and C++ were also asked in HR.
Final round was Technical: I was asked to explain about the filestructures project
which we had in 5th sem.. Many questions from C ,C++ and Software engg were
also asked.(Though we have SE only this sem).. The questions were not
screwing..They were direct...They mainly see if ur basics are strong..
After the technical round, we were addressed by the HR team of Accenture who
announced the final results.
ACCENTURE PAPER - 08 APR 2006
Hi
I appeared for ACCENTURE on 8th of April, 06. Paper was easy but lengthy, time
management is the main strategy. The paper went something like this:
_____________________________________________________________________
6
1) Verbal Section:
A) Passage 1 (5 questions)> theme: Do not believe whatever you read in
newspaper. Questions were direct except the last one. the last question was based
on the central idea of the passage.(Apprx. passage length : 300 words )
B) Passage 2 (5 questions)> theme:benefits from the merger of IT
companies.questions were not very direct.but, obviously managable.( length : 400
words)
C) Synonyms (5 questions)> words were: superfluous,aroma,shied
D) Grammer (5 questions)> selecting the right sentence from 4 options. options
were close, need to read between words.based on tense and article.
E) Preposotions (5 questions)>very very easy questions. 1 example: received _____
thank ______ Mr. Murthy a sum ____ Rs. 50000.(Ans:With,from,of)
2) Quantitative Section:
lengthy solutions. suggestion is that approach should be option based.solving
traditionally may take a lot of time.
Examples:
1) Three persons A,B,C participates in a race. A completes one lap in 10 mins, B in
12 mins, and C in 16 mins.How many laps has A run when all the three participants
meet for the first time.
2) How many multiples of 3 when added together gives 1134?C he ta naS
3) Mr. X reads 1/5th of a book on Monday, on Tuesday he reads 5/8th of the
remaining. On Wednesday, he reads 49 pages and thereby completes the book. How
many pages the book consists of?
Questions were on Area, Perimeter,Pipes & Cisterns, Time & Work, Sequences,
nymber System,Speed Distance & time, Profit and loss,
3) Logical Reasoning:
A)Venn-diagram (3 questions)>. Simple questions-need to know just the basics of
Venn-Diagram.
B)Syllogism(5 questions)>
Example: All cats are dogs.
All bats are cats.
4 options after this, you have to select the correct conclusion.
C)Picture based questions ( 5 questions): R.S.Agarwal Non-Verbal Ability book may
help. I found these 5 questions confusing.
D) questions on operators (3 questions):
example: If " means - ", " means / ", then whats the value of (96)(84).
7
E)Questions on Scheduling: http://www.ChetanaSinterview.com
Example: A,B,C,D,e,F are 6 programmes to be organised on Wednesday evening
show. If A is scheduled then B is not scheduled.( totally 6 conditions)
Option based approach should be undoubtly adopted or will become unmanagable.
TIME MANAGEMENT IS THE MAIN CRITERION TO CRACK THE TEST. So, adopt option
based approach to zero down the correct answer. If someone approaches by
conventional method of solving step by step, then I am sorry to say that "BETTER
TRY NEXT TIME" will be their consolation
ACCENTURE PATTERN - 01 APR 2006 – CHENNAI
Hi
I got placed in Accenture through the walk-in held in Jepiyar College, Chennai on
April 1st and 2nd.
I am a 2005 pass-out with an aggregate of just 71 %. Nearly 5000 people had
attended.
First, only students of the 20 Colleges which had already registered were allowed to
go inside;
Without any hopes of writing test, we simply waited there from morning 7.30 to
noon 12. At 12, they called us inside.
First round was Aptitude Test; It was easy. It consisted of three sections : verbal,
analytical and mental ability.
Second round was GD. Many were eliminated in this round. After GD, they asked me
to come on next dat i,e April 2nd
Third round was HR interview.. They asked about one of my projects; They didnt go
deep into it.
Then general HR questions like introduction about myself, about my family, how do I
c myself after 5 years,
Y Accenture, willingness to relocate, my positive qualities etc..
HR round was cool..But, still many were
eliminated. They observed so many other factors like the format and
meaning of our mail IDs, dress code, way of communication etc...

Final round was the Technical Interview. The
interviewer asked me one or two basic questions in O.S., RDBMS,
pointers and about my project. He then asked me to write a program and told me to
explain its working in detail.
Technical Interview was easy. Only those candidates who couldn'tt write the program

were eliminated.
Just 5 minutes, after the Technical Interview they informed me that I have been
selected.
They asked me to wait for sometime and gave us the offer letter immediately.
Joining on 17th April.
I am very much thankful to this wonderful group. I wish everyone all the best and I
conclude saying one thing

ACCENTURE EXPERIENCE - 01 APR 2006 – CHENNAI
Hai
I am very glad to be placed in a pretigious company like Accenture that too as a
freshers(2005).
I went to the off-campus held at Jeppiar Engg. college, Chennai on Apr 1st and 2nd.
I took the written test in the first batch and then after that GD. then I waited till
evening but they atlast asked us to come the next day(tomorrow-Apr 2nd) by 8:45
a.m.
The co-ordinators came by 9:00 and took the attendence and shuffled the
profiles.Unfortunately my resume was called in the last panel by 3:00p.m even
though I was supposed to be selected at the firt batch itself.During afternoon they
allowed the other college(not in the list thro' the request made by their college
placement officer and some l(astly )directly.So better try to walk in directly.but see
to that if u r coming from out-of stations.Then I felt something good will happen in
my case as everyone coming out of the panel nodded their face saying that they all
will be selected. I gained more hopes even though I was put in the last panel. Then
finally I received the Offer letter on the same day itself wherein I was asked to go to
B'lore for training(3-4 months) then I will be put to chennai itself. chetana-jobs

So friend I feel that They all look at ur Confidence level and communication and way
of speech.I lost in more than 20 companies in different level (writtten itself, some in
tech and sime in HR round).but they were all experiences for me as how to ans and
how not to ans/behave.I use to rome here and there and give my resumes to
_____________________________________________________________________
9
whatever companies I see on my way and regularly/daily I use to check my mails
and post my resumes and prepare for the invites made by the companies.But this
one I was very cool that I haven't read a single word(except the company profile) as
I thought"Whats going to happen anyway they won't ask the same ques we hae read
/practiced from the books and materials v have)But still they all gave me
confidence.So Friends Don't worry.
Surely "Every dog as its day"Keep on walking and searching.Don't lose hope is the
moral of everyone's story.I feel great that I can share somethink with u friends.Be
proud to be Chetanaties.All the best for everything that comes on ur way.
ACCENTURE PATTERN - JAN 2006
Hi
This is regarding accenture test pattern... They had changed the pattern of the test.
Now they had tied up with meritrac for conducting tests...so its diffent from previous
pattrns
There is no technical questions for the written test. The test consists of 3 sections
www.ChetanaSinterview.com
1) Aptitude(maths) mainly of ven diagrams, then ques like a man walks east for 1
km then turns left ..etc like that and ques like A man facing towards west turns 45
degre clockwise then again 180 degree clockwise then turns 270 degree anti clock
wise now at wat direction does he faces to.. like that..
2) Mental ability : ques like *stand for -, /stands for + etc.. a hand ful of such ques
nd ques in which three 8 digit numbers are given and to find out they are same or
not .etcc..And Questions like .A company want to select people for job... the criteria
for selection is given and based on that 4 questions were given we have to choose
whether he must be selected or not like that..
www.ChetanaSinterview.com
3) Verbal reasoning: fill up the blanks with missing words, replacing the word in a
sentence with appropriate words of same meaning from given list and 2 passages
with questions based on this
After written tests those who are selected will have GD( before, accenture didnt had
GD), Then HR and Technical
The test will be simple... just brush up and go prepare well for other Rounds also
