Writen test was not so much easy. they have asked more Questions on venn diagrams,cube paintng,* $ problems,inequality expressions (
like if x>y ?
i)x>z;
ii)z/x=x+y;
a)both are required to ans the question,
b)only 1
c)only 2
d)neither 1 nor 2 )
UNIX is also different.
RDMS is also like UNIX.
where as CPP they asked more questions on programs related to pointer in class.this is also not that much easy.Because they want filter the people.there were around 600 people out that only 52 are short listed.
so my advise is that ,do alot of hard work,so u get throug it.

Convergys General - other Paper - 6

CONVERGYS PAPER ON 18th AT CHENNAI

The Covergys is one of the easiest test to crack!!! Before going to interview!! 2 thing to follow before going to any interview

Rule1:Stay COOL
Rule2:Stay COOL!!!

Becos it will help you to think more.Its from my own exprience i am saying. The question pattern was same as the previous question papers posted by our fnds,

There were 4 sections:
1:English : (all of same type)
It had very easy fill in the blanks... They gave a passage on Colombia space craft and passage had blanks to be filled eg.
They next launch is __________ by the end of next month. a) Expected b)Planned c)scheduled

2.Logical reasoning:
Its one of the easiest part just prepare ur self with logical resoning book.... The Venn diagram occupied 4(4 questions each) parts of the parper,

Quantitative Reasoning(10questions approx) : eg: 1-50 how many prime numbers are there....

Data sufficiency occupied 10questions. (upto this occupies the 52 questions)

acronyms, number series, $ replace by 1,* by 0 question....

3.Unix questions
Its very basic questions. Just glance the basic functional syntax and concepts from easiest of book available as a guide in market.
eg) which acts as a interperter in UNIX 1)Kernel 2)Shell 3... 4..

Let x=10,y=20,z=30
Let c=x+y+z
echo $c A 1)error 2)60 3)10 4)20

4) RDBMS:
Its was the concept based on normalization,syntax based question, keyword based questions and they gave query and asked us to check the error.

5) C++:
It was quite easy. I used the C,C++ based question paper present in freshers world and it helped me a lot. Its based on pointers and some sime easy questions. Every question will be within the sample question paper available at this site

Convergys Whole Testpaper2 Paper - 8

CONVERGYS PAPER PATTERN ON 08th AUGUST 2006 AT VIJAYAWADA

Hello Friens

I have attended the Convergys campus interview on Aug 8.
The interview was held in our college for about 1411 students from 25 different colleges.

The interview procedure consisted 2 phases:
1) Writtens test
2) Technical & HR interview

Coming to the written test:
It has 5 sections
1) Inferential vocabulary round
2) Logical &Aptitude test
3) Unix programming concepts
4) RDBMS concepts
5) C programming

The
1) inferential vocabulary round has a passage with blanks and 4 options to fill each blank.
It had 20 blanks and 22 minutes for that section

2)The Logical and Aptitude section has 45 questions for 48 minutes.
It had number of problems on sets
Example: people studying maths 20,people studying english 30.studying both some number,Find total.....like that.
Around 12 questions were there
Logical questions on Family relations.
some questions on binary numbers.
Cube questions.

3)The unix programming 10 questions 10 minutes.
4)The RDBMS concepts 10 questions 10 minutes
5)The c 15 questions 15 minutes....
Some output questions....like that.

The major ELIMINATION ROUND was the WRITTEN TEST.

Out of 1411 students, 98 were shortlisted for the HR&Technical interview.

These convergys people have less requirement, that is why they have revised our cut-off, initially they kept some cut-off, then 300 students were there. So they again revised and took 98 students.

All this revision of cut-off took place off-screen.

I came to know these issues from our faculty members who were present at the time of revision of cut-off.

NO negative marking. But a still more CRITICAL way of getting the score is:

They will count Correct Answers, Wrong Answers and take %(percentage), Which is your Written test score.

So guys/gals you have to really be sound and get through the written test in-order to get into CONVERGYS. But it,s really a good company to get into.

Convergys Whole Testpaper 3 Paper - 4

CONVERGYS PAPER ON 21st JULY AT HYDERABAD

Hi Pals,
Convergys papers consists of 5 sections
1) VERBAL(20Q) (20 mins) - long passage with blanks numbered 1 - 20.4 options for each and every row.
2)QUANT,REASONING,VENN DIAGRAMS(45Q) (48mins)
3)UNIX
4)RDBMS
5)C++ Programming

1)VERBAL----
This is the paragraph which excatly we got.Got this one in google search.
NEW YORK -- Some questions even stump Stephen Hawking.

The famed British astrophysicist and bestselling author has turned to Yahoo Answers, a new feature in which anyone can pose a question for fellow internet users to try to answer. By Friday afternoon, nearly 17,000 Yahoo users had responded.

Hawking,s question: "In a world that is in chaos politically, socially and environmentally, how can the human race sustain another 100 years?"
Some of the answers were short -- "get rid of nuclear weapons" -- and others vague -- "Somehow we will." Many were doubtful: "I don,t think it is possible unless we expand into space," one user wrote.

A number of people suggested thinking differently, ending bickering or fostering cooperation.
Officials at the University of Cambridge, where Hawking is a mathematics professor, confirmed that Hawking wrote the message but said he would have no further comment.

Hawking,s groundbreaking research on black holes and the origins of the universe has made him one of the best-known theoretical physicists of his generation. Author of the global best seller A Brief History of Time, Hawking is known for proposing that space and time have no beginning and no end.

Lately, he,s been pondering about the fate of humans. In a June 13 speech in Hong Kong, Hawking said the survival of the human race depends on its ability to find new homes elsewhere in the universe because there,s an increasing risk that a disaster will destroy Earth.

He said that if humans can avoid killing themselves in the next 100 years, they should have space settlements that can continue without support from Earth.

Hawking is one of 10 celebrity questioners Yahoo solicited as part of its "Ask the Planet" campaign.

The Sunnyvale, California, internet company spent weeks trying to track Hawking down but got his participation within a day of reaching the correct assistant, said Patrick Crane, vice president of marketing for Yahoo Search.

The question was submitted a few days before the Hong Kong speech and posted this past Wednesday.

Over the next week, Yahoo employees are expected to work with Hawking to sift through the answers and select one or several to highlight as best responses.

Yahoo Answers, like an offering from Google and one planned by Microsoft, is among the services aimed at tapping the collective intelligence. It,s based on the premise that humans as a group can do a better job at finding information than machines or any single person can.

Anyone can ask or answer a question, regardless of expertise, although Yahoo will eventually implement a rating system meant to elevate users with better reputations, based on their past questions and answers.

2)QUANT,REASONING,VENN DIAGRAM
First 10ques are based on venn diagrams lil bit easy .Then next puzzle test question he asked some around 4 on that.

Is PQR a isosceles traingle?----he gave some two statements we need to choose that whether 1st stt is euf or 2nd one enuf or both are required to get solution or we cant get solution by using both satements.These kind of questions ge asked some around 8.someof them are....

Options:-
a)1st Statement alone will give result.
b)2nd Statement alone will give result.
c)1st n 2nd Statement both will give result.
d)Results can not be obtained

-->Find the value of b.a n b are non negatiove numbers
1)2a-b is divisible by five
2)a-b=6
-->PQRS is a Quadrilateral.reactagle is drawn(Not excatly but these kind of ques)

1)PS n QR having positive slope
2)PQ n RS Having positive.
-->find value of Y?Y is non negative integer.

1)XY+Y^2=0
2)XY+Y^2=5

-->tank was filled up to 1/3 after that again it was filled with 3 Lts of water now the tank is 1/2 filled.wat is the capacity of Tank?(Gave 4 Options)
-->A Person painting on a glass board which is of 3:2 ratio.the smaller side size is of 15 inches.wat is total size of board?
-->one question on permutations
-->from 1 to 100 how amny numbers are diovisible by 4 and should contain 4 in the divisible number?
1)6 2)7 3)9 4)10
Ans)4,8,12,16,20,24,28,32, 36,40,44,48,52,56,60,64,68,72,76,80,84,88,92,96,100 - these r the nums divisible by 4 n the number wich contain 4 digit are 4,24,40,44,48,64,84.
->>A Prob on Cubes....4*4*4 cubles is there and a smaller cuble of 64 blocks are joined togeather.......(i didnt remember excatly the questions it was very big he said we need to remove the middle 4 blocks and paint it with red some thing lik that it was a lil bit tough)

3)UNIX
1) ____________ acts as command interpreter
2)S# is used for _________?
2 r 3 programs he asked.

4)RDBMS.
-->some query is given which join is used in this query?
-->Two or Three questions on NORMAILZATION.
-->Modify is union of ______a)INSERT and UPDATE b)UPDATE and DELETE 3)SELECT and DELETE 4)UPDATE and TRUNC
-->Some defintion is given and options as??a)Priamry Key b)Candidate key c)Foriegn Key
-->some question on ODBC.

5)C++
-->He gave some around 5 programs
-->2 programs are based on inheritance.
-->some are based on theory a lil bit easy.
Time maintaing is the important.

Convergys General - Interview Paper - 5

CONVERGYS PAPER ON 12th MAY AT LUCKNOW

Hi guys!! This is Ashish Chadha from lucknow.I m more than elated to tell u that I have made it to convergys,finally. It came on 12th of may at BBDNITM,lucknow.

Firstly there was a sectional written test comprising of following sections:
1.WORD USAGE(20Q) This comprised of a long scientific passage with blanks labeled (1-20)and 4 options for each questions. 2.REASONING ,QUANT AND VENN DIAGRAM SECTION(45Q) The questions were moderate ,u just have to manage ur time well enough.
3.UNIX(10Q) Just go through the syntax of various commands in unix..like echo meta,etc.
4.RDBMS(10Q) This was the easiest section if u hav the basic knowledge of dbms and SQL.
5.C++(15Q) Some questions were tough.be well versed with pointers,classes,inheritance
Out of around 300 candidates,38 cleared the written.

Then they called us for the ppt and the HR guy was very strict. He told us about the organization, its domains, industries served and all other aspects of the company. He said that they only pick the best because they offer the best to their employees. Then he gave us a 30 minutes break to eat something and come back with a presentation prepared of our own for 2-3 minutes..on any topic.

When we came back we found that we were going straight for interviews and the presentation will be seen there only.My no.was around the 30th so i had to wait a long time for the interview and now starts the real thing…..
When I went to greet them they stood up and shook hands with me. Then he asked me about the presentation. I had barely spoken 30-40 seconds that he said stop!! We got the gist of what you wanted to say. My topic was”Should group discussions and presentations be a part of freshera recruitment” and I was strongly in favour of it. One of the interviewer asked….. was I trying to impress them??to which I gave a flat answer..sir this, is just my view.if you are impressed then I m doing my job right.
Then he asked me some HR questions…as to who r chadha’s,what is ur objective and why.Then he asked me technical questions.. Firstly about my project then he came to SQL,DBMS..joins cursors,procedures..how to keep a database secure,a query to join two tables to create a table with a primary key and a null column. Asked me some queries to which I wasn’t right but he was gauging my confidence. Then he asked about c++,object oriented programming. .inheritance. .types of classes. .types of inheritances,malloc,calloc…and he was quite satisfied with my answers.
Then the other guy asked me if this was my first interview ..i told him it was my second 1st being infosys..then he asked what went wrong there..i told him that 1 puzzle did the trick . Itold him that I was waiting for satyam’s interview.then he told me that he himself was a x-satyamite.he then explained about the policies of Indian companies and their nature of keeping guys on bench. Then he asked me if I were to choose between satyam and convergys what would I choose and why…..i told him convergys because there is a chance of going abroad….the he explaine about the whole issue of going abroad. Then came his final sentence….. Irrespective of u choosing either of the companies I would like u to be a part of convergys..i said a solid “thank you,sir” and he told me to sharpen skills in unix,dbms,sql,c,c++ before joining.

Convergys Technical - Other Paper - 2

Hi Friends,.................

This Paper was submitted by me, Anurag and my friend Nayan from ICFAI Tech

Most agree that humor in the workplace can have beneficial effects. Yet not all humor is good humor. The challenge: how to interject appropriate humor and fun into our serious jobs without hurting others or seriously undermining the company. When used appropriately, humor can work for you.

Humor that Uploads Also Uplifts

Humor has the power to make people feel special. When you include people in fun it simultaneously improves morale, reduces stress and facilitates team building. With the prevalence of telecommuting and workgroups scattered geographically, the challenge of furthering working relationships, bonding and building camaraderie is real. At one San Francisco Bay Area company a workgroup staged an elaborate Remote Baby Shower. The expectant mother, who was out-of-state, called in for a pre-arranged conference call with her workgroup. When she did...surprise! Everyone was having a party in her honor. They uploaded digital photos of a decorated conference room and each other, and e-mailed sound files with well wishes. Everyone shared in the good cheer. This creative use of technology brought employees closer to each other, figuratively if not literally.

Humor That Brings People Together

Workplaces are full of opportunities to use humor for the benefit of all. Milestones are a natural place to employ humor. Dress like the recipient as a tribute during a surprise birthday party. Other celebrations to mark anniversaries, project completions or similar accomplishments are perfect opportunities to utilize humor. Even surviving certain projects is cause for celebration and fun.

Holidays are another natural time to employ humor. Halloween is a time for contests to see who can best decorate conference rooms; for other companies the anniversary of their founding is cause for celebration. Silly speeches, skits and spoofs abound.

And the Award Goes To...

Staging award ceremonies is a great way to have fun, recognize each other and revel in the shared work experience. Whether the categories mimic those found at the Oscars, Emmys or Tonys, or are derivative, esprit de corps rises when the team laughs at itself and each other. Best Supporting Actor, Best Impersonation of an Inanimate Object, Best Special Effects, Most Likely to Secede, or Lifetime Achievement Award.

Pranks can alternately be uplifting or uprooting. A desktop publisher, on April Fools Day, adorned his co-workers cars, windshields with mock yellow parking tickets, complete with envelopes for remittance. Upon closer inspection, these true-to-life replicas of tickets had whimsical offenses of significance to the recipients. The departmental joker,s ticket cited him for "excessive use of farce" and the hard charging corporate counsel,s infraction charged him with a "Failure to Yield." Of course the initiator of the gag was later cited for impersonating an officer. Everyone laughed at the spoof once they realized it was a joke. Judge Judy,s signature at the bottom of the ticket gave it away.

Pole Position

A fast growing company didn,t have enough office space for full cubicles for its new hires. One unfortunate hire,s assigned cubicle had a giant pole in its midst. To her credit she never complained. Co-workers felt for her. One night they hit the streets, collecting various fliers from telephone poles in their neighborhoods. The next day when the new hire reached her cubicle, the offending pole was now covered with notices about missing pets, renters seeking apartments, cheap movers for hire and even local GRE study groups. Not only did the employee know her co-workers felt her frustration, it bonded them as well as they pulled together to help one of their own.

One Person,s Humor is Another Person,s Horror

When targeting humor consider targeting yourself. Everyone has a different idea of what,s funny and what,s not. Many a well intentioned prank or joke has backfired. One co-worker sent another a prank letter impersonating a local media figure. The recipient mistook it for real, interpreted it as harassment and called the FBI. Oops!

The Benefits of Self-Effacing Humor

When we make fun of ourselves it actually demonstrates our healthy outlook, showing we don,t take ourselves so seriously. As a result, we,re regarded as more approachable and down to earth. Don,t make fun of yourself excessively. Such humor loses its effectiveness with overuse.

Everyone from politicians to CEOs to Southwest Airlines flight attendants use self-deprecating humor - humor that makes fun of themselves - to get people laughing at, and consequently with them. You can too.

While gallows humor may feel appropriate during layoffs and cutbacks, strive to employ humor that uplifts and taps universal themes for best results. Here,s to laughter!
