The typical fresher recruitment process at Wipro involves:
An online assessment (aptitude + logical reasoning + verbal + in many cases coding) first.
Then a technical interview (for selected candidates) where your programming, fundamentals, projects etc are discussed.
Then a HR / final interview where communication skills, fit, background, etc are evaluated.
Here are some specifics on the online test pattern:
For example, for the “Elite NTH” drive:
Aptitude (Quantitative + Logical + Verbal) ~ 48 minutes.
Written Communication (1 essay) ~ 20 minutes.
Coding test (2 questions) ~ 60 minutes. Languages: C, C++, Java, Python.
Another breakdown: Quant 16 Qs in 16 mins, Logical 14 Qs in 14 mins, Verbal 22 Qs in 18 mins, Essay 1 Q in 20 mins, Coding 2 Qs in 60 mins.
Key topics include Quantitative ability (percentages, ratios, time & work, etc), Verbal (grammar, reading comprehension), Logical reasoning, and coding basics for the coding round.
According to salary-data sites: For freshers at Wipro, salaries commonly fall in the ₹ 1.5-5.1 Lakh per annum range for less than ~3 years experience.
Some sources note that the “traditional” fresher package is around ~ ₹3-4 LPA and that it has been almost stagnant in this band for a decade.
For higher tier programmes (campus hires from elite institutes) the company has said packages can be higher (for example ~₹6.5-7 Lakh or more) for top talent.
For example: “Freshers at Wipro in India typically receive a salary between ₹3.2 LPA and ₹6.5 LPA, depending on role and recruitment programmes.”
If you get in as a standard fresher in Wipro, you might expect an annual CTC of roughly ₹3-4 Lakh (subject to role, location).
The in‐hand monthly salary will be lower, after deductions, allowances etc.
The higher packages (₹6.5-7 LPA) tend to be for “elite” hires or special tracks.
Important to note: the company has indicated no increase in fresher salary band for FY26 due to market & demand reasons.
The growth path at Wipro typically goes like: Fresher / Graduate Trainee → Associate / Project Engineer → Senior Associate / Senior Engineer → Lead/Team Lead → Manager → and so on.
Growth depends heavily on performance, project allocation, skill-upgrading (technical + domain + soft skills).
For freshers joining in a standard track, the initial low salary band means accelerating your skillset and visibility early is important to move up.
Wipro has noted that “freshers salaries have remained in the ₹3-4 LPA zone for many years” because they link promotions & higher pay to experience, utilisation, technology, performance.
So for good growth: pick roles in newer technologies, build strong basics, get certifications, and aim for internal promotions rather than relying only on salary hikes.
If you’re a fresher considering Wipro:
Realistic baseline: Expect approx ₹3-4 LPA CTC unless you get into a higher‐tier programme.
The recruitment process: You’ll need to clear the aptitude + reasoning + verbal + coding rounds (with time pressure) and then do well in technical & HR interviews.
Growth: Your early 1-2 years matter a lot. Skills + performance + project allocation will define how fast you move forward.
The pay band for freshers is relatively modest compared to some full stack / specialist roles elsewhere — but joining a large firm gives you exposure, training and career stability.
The “₹3-4 LPA freshers salary” appears to be the standard across a large portion of fresher hires, and many drives still fall in this range. So don’t assume higher numbers unless specifically mentioned.
Role, branch, college, coding skill, special track all influence the package and growth rate.
Career growth often depends on you: the sooner you pick up newer technologies, deliver value & break beyond “trainee” status, the faster the salary jump.
Given current industry conditions, many IT firms (including Wipro) are cautious in hiring mass freshers and salary hikes for entry level are somewhat constrained. So making your profile stand out is key.
