1. Technical / Cognitive Test (MCQs)

Common topics covered:

• Data Structures (arrays, linked lists, stacks/queues) & Algorithms (sorting, searching, recursion) 

• Fundamentals of Databases (joins, keys, normalization) 

• Basics of Cloud Computing, Networking, Operating Systems 

• Pseudo-code / Logic / Basic Programming Constructs (loops, conditionals) 

2. English / Written Communication (WET)

Topics typically include:

• Essay writing task (on a given topic) to test written communication skills. 

• Grammar and vocabulary: sentence correction, error spotting, synonyms/antonyms, cloze tests, para jumbles. 

• Reading comprehension. 

3. Game-based Aptitude / Reasoning

A relatively newer section in Capgemini’s fresher drives:

• Challenges/games such as Motion Challenge, Digit Challenge, Switch Challenge, Grid Challenge, Deductive/Inductive reasoning. 

• This tests logic, multitasking, rapid decision making. 

4. Spoken English / Communication Round

• Listening & speaking tasks; reading aloud, verbal fluency. 

• Ensuring clear pronunciation, comprehension, response to cues.

5. Coding Assessment (for higher-package roles)

• Languages typically allowed: C, C++, Java (sometimes Python) 

• 1-2 coding problems in 45 minutes (for roles with premium package) 

6. Behavioral Competency / Psychometric Test (in some off-campus drives)

• Tests decision making, behaviour under scenarios, consistency in responses. 

⏱ Sample Pattern / Time & Question Estimates

Here are approximate numbers based on recent 2025-batch drives:

• Technical Test: ~ 40 questions, ~ 40 minutes. 

• English Communication MCQ: ~ 30 questions, ~ 30 minutes.

• Game-based Aptitude: ~ 4 games selected out of ~24 possible, ~25-30 minutes. 

• Coding: ~ 2 questions, ~ 45 minutes (for certain roles). 

• Behavioral Competency: ~ 100 questions, ~ 20 minutes (off-campus variant) 

Preparation Tips

• Strengthen your fundamentals: data structures, algorithms, basics of DBMS/OS/Networking.

• For English: practise writing essays (~180-220 words), and strengthen grammar/vocabulary.

• For game-based aptitude: practise logic puzzles, memory/reasoning games, and timed decision games.

• Coding: pick a language you’re comfortable with, practise problem-solving under timed conditions.

• Behavioural/communication rounds: practise speaking clearly, listening exercises, mock scenarios.

• Take full-length mock tests simulating time & sections so you’re comfortable with the format.
