Today CSC had come to our college for campus Selection. After Knowing the package they were offering (i.e. 3.27 lakhs CTC) , training period and bond. Me and my friends decided not to join this company as we already have one offer in our hand. I already had infosys's letter of intent in my hand at that time. Selection process was :-
1. Written Aptitude Test (40 Mins)
2. Written Technical Test (40 Mins) followed by Written Communication Skills Test (10 mins)
3. Communication Evaluation (GD)
4. Technical Interview / HR Interview
5. Final Short-listing
So in the presentaion (i.e. CSC Corporate PPT) , we(jiit, noida fellas ) showed complete disinterest in CSC. We didn't gave any response to their questions.When they asked how many of us have visited their website ? None of us raised our arms to answer their question. But when they asked- "how many of you are having internet connections in their home". Very proudly all of us raised our hand. When they asked how many of us are active on facebook. None of us raised our hand. No-one told them the full form of CSC. Somehow ppt was completed. Then there came the aptitude test and technical test. These 2 tests were compulsory for all. We passed the aptitude test but in technical test we marked all questions wrong and in essay writing we wrote some pathetic story so that there would not be any chance of selection.
After giving the test we started bluffing each other saying that "oh man, results are out ! and i saw ur name in the list..." and in all possible ways we tried to beguile each other. Then we started playing cricket.After two hours final list came & we took sigh of relief that most of us were not selected. :) :) But unluckily they are few chaps who got selected :( :( & were sent to TnP cell for GD & PI.
In the GD when they raised the question that who would join the CSC if they got selected. All of those poor guys who got selected replied on their face that they do not wish to join CSC. But then came the biggest blunder of all. All those student who were uninterested got shortlisted for the next round. The same thing happened with them in the technical PI. They spoke the truth. The interview didn't ask anything. He just saw the CV and try to convince the candidate that what kind of opportunity he might get if he joins CSC. Then they gave HR interview. There they asked which job location would you prefer but answer was still the same that we are not interested in CSC. :) Then the interviewer enquired the reason for that.
Around 10 O'clock final list of selected student came in which they selected 53 students. Luckily all of us who don't wish to join CSC wasn't there in the list. :) :)
Now the reason why we were not interested in CSC was....
1. It is having the dream status i.e. if selected we have to join CSC.
2. We are ECE student with already 1 offer either from Infosys, Accenture, Wipro, HCL, Google, Grail Research, MTree, CMC etc.
3. We were waiting for core Companies like Ericssion, Landis & Gyr, Continental etc
4 .Package was not lucrative.
5. Job Profile was crap. (i.e. Global Infrastructure Services (GIS) ) .Systems engg. /Software engg. is a better profile than GIS.
6. Once volunteered for the process, you will not be allowed to withdraw .
