10-15 mins to read the comprehension. And after that questions will be
given to you and comprehension paper will not be with you at that time.

My topic of comprehension was on new software for user authentication .

7)Email Writing.

In 10-15mins you have to write an professional email.

Situation was like this:

There is a readymade garments showroom F Folio, whose very loyal customer
Ms.Preeti wants to return the suit she bought 2 weeks before. And
according to the company policy, goods can only b returned within 3 days
of purchase. Thereafter no returns are accepted. So kindly write an email
to Ms.Preeti that you can't take goods back once sold after 3 days of
purchase.

In technical interview, they ask questions mostly from OS, Networking, DS.

They started with the last project I did.
