that I got placed in "Caritor", thru the Anna Univ. Placement program 4
self financial colleges' off campus drive held at Madurai KLN College on

And finally I got the luck, since my preparation met with the

I didn't miss, I just conquered my career at "Caritor".....
Here am giving my experience at Caritor.
There was totally 5 rounds....
1. Written
2. GD
3. Passage Writing
4. Tech Interview
5. HR Interview
1.Written
****************
There was
30 Apritude & reasoning questions
&
30 C questions.
Aptitude & Reasoning...
It consisted 1 verbal, 2 or 3 reasoning & remaining all were from
quantitative aptitude.
It was little tough.
C.......
Its quit easy. A good Basic C knowledge s enough...
"TEST UR C SKILLS" of Yashavant Kanetkar will b very useful 4 this.
2. GD
********************
It was tough, since this was the most filtration round than others.
A survival level English is enough.... Dont shout at any instance...
What u speak s not considered; How u speak s important here.
Each group consisted 12 candidates.
We were told 2 select our own topic.
We selected "Is it acceptable the new rules of anna univ. on uniforms &
cell phone use".
The GD organiser told not to quarrel in beginning itself.
It went on nearly 15 min. & finally one summarized....
Only 2 were selected from my group including me, since v both maintained
a calm approach while speaking.... while Most of others were not
accepting other's points & shouted on even in the time of summarising....
3.Passage Writing
**************************
It was not an elimination round. But they just check ur written
communication. A good english without grammatical mistake s enough.....
V have given a paper & given the topic "Why u like ur college & how it
helped in improving ur personality" & 10 min time.
V all written more than 1 page...
While collecting the papers, the caritor people smiled & said... "We
asked just a passage not an essay".
4. Tech Interview

It was so cool....
One person interviewed in each panel....
For me one gentle man was there...
