Round 1: Cognitive and Technical Coding Assessment

We received our admit cards for the process on 29 November and the assessment was scheduled in our college campus. The platform was a Secured Web Browser of the company itself, and a representative of the company visited the campus to ensure smooth conduction of the assessment.

The assessment was divided into 2 sections:

General Aptitude:

This section included almost 60 sections which had to be solved in under 60 minutes. The questions comprised basic quantitative analysis, verbal reasoning, puzzles, logical reasoning, and analytical skills. If you have a grasp on solving such questions of easy to medium difficulty, this section is a piece of cake for you. Although the accuracy of the questions matters, so confidence is the key to this.

Please Note: The aptitude round may sound easy, but 60-70% of students get eliminated from this round only. So, be cautious in that round.

Coding:

Now, after submitting your Aptitude Assessment questions, if your score meets the minimum cutoff (unspecified) then, you will be redirected to the coding question screen. But, if you fail to clear the cutoff for the previous assessment, then you will not be able to move ahead and are hence, eliminated from the process.

In the coding round, you are given 2 questions of easy level(if you practice normal DSA questions daily). My questions included strategic use of switch case and a question that involved performing various functions on a vector as per the requirement. You are given around 45 minutes to solve these questions.

Please Note: The test cases are not in-built. You may have written the correct code, but if you run it, the compiler may give you an error. To rectify this, it’s important that for every code compilation, you give custom test cases. Then only, it will compile successfully.

Hey everyone!

Today, I’ll be telling you about my interview experience with Accenture for the role of Associate Software Engineer as a part of my on-campus hiring process.

So, Accenture visited our college in November end last year. There were openings for two roles – ASE and FSE. The interview process for both the roles was same, and in the end, it was up to the interviewer to recommend us for FSE roles.
