Typical Exam/Test Pattern

According to multiple recent sources:

  • The selection process often begins with an online assessment that includes two major parts:

    1. Cognitive + Technical Assessment — Aptitude, reasoning, verbal, plus some technical basics. 

    2. Coding Round (for technical/engineering roles) — 1-2 questions in a programming language. 

  • There is also often a communication assessment or verbal round (especially for roles requiring client or business-interaction skills). 

Sample Breakdown of Sections & Timings

From sources:

  • Cognitive Ability: ~ 50 questions in ~ 50 minutes (English ability + critical reasoning + abstract reasoning) 

  • Technical Assessment: ~ 40 questions in ~ 40 minutes (common applications, MS Office, pseudocode, fundamentals of networking/security/cloud) 

  • Coding Round: ~ 2 questions, ~ 45 minutes (languages like C, C++, Java, Python) 

  • In older/alternate pattern: A simpler format with Quantitative ≈15 Qs, Reasoning ≈20 Qs, Verbal ≈20 Qs all together in 60 minutes. 

Sections & What They Cover

  • Quantitative Aptitude: Arithmetic (percentages, ratio/proportion, time & work, speed & distance), algebra, data interpretation etc. 

  • Logical/Analytical Reasoning: Puzzles, series, coding-decoding, seating arrangements, blood relations, abstract reasoning. 

  • Verbal/English Ability: Grammar (error spotting, sentence correction), reading comprehension, vocabulary, para jumbles. 

  • Technical Fundamentals (for appropriate roles): Basics of programming logic, pseudocode, data structures/algorithms, MS Office, networking, security, cloud fundamentals. 

  • Coding Round: For engineering/technical freshers; solving programming problems in Java, C++, Python etc. 


Key Tips for Preparation

  • Practice mock tests that replicate the timings and section-wise limits (e.g., 50 questions in 50 minutes, etc).

  • For aptitude & reasoning: focus on speed and accuracy—some sections are heavily time constrained.

  • For verbal/communication: good grammar + reading comprehension + vocabulary matter.

  • If you’re applying for a technical role: prepare programming basics, data structures/algorithms, pseudocode logic, and also understand fundamentals like networking/security/cloud as they may appear.

  • Do section-wise timed practice, since many sections may be individually timed or have restricted time blocks.

  • Pay attention to the most recent pattern (2025) because companies tweak patterns—one source notes changes such as removal of certain sections ("Analytical Reasoning no longer part") for 2025 drives.
