SONY INDIA SOFTWARE CENTER(SISC) Placement Pattern..

Answer / sivasubramanian.k

Date:24/05/2008 Sony India Software Center

The placement procedure includes the following requirements:
From freshers upto 2 years experienced persons...
B.E/M.E/Diploma having aggregate of above 70% through out each semesters
and also in their X and XII....They also check for no backlogs in your
engineering history..Be careful
It was an Online Test at the company itself in Bangalore...All your
marksheets including
degree,X,XII will be verified at the counters and will be allowed inside
with a company seal..Those showing fake marksheets
will be rejected either at the counter or inside the company...

The first section consist of Aptitude Test(Online) which is divided into
Analytical and Logical Reasoning + English(Verbal)
All are multiple choice questions with no negative marking...
It is conducted for about 20+10 minutes...It mainly covers R.S Aggarwal
NonVerbal
and Verbal Questions..If we have gone through that then it will be easy to
clear the test with
in the stipulated time.....Many of them were rejected in the first
round..On the first day itself there were
around 2000 people...The instructions mainly helps to remember the time
for answering..Bcoz if test is about to end in 10 minutes,background will
change grey
and for last 2 min it will turn yellow...

I cleared the first round and the second round consist of Technical Test
There are options for us to choose C or C++ with networking or C++ with
data structures
or Java...You can choose the language u are comfortable with...

I chose C++ with networking ...Those who attended the other tests can
also please
post their experience...It was all 20 questions including 3 programs (with
options)
within 30 minutes...It consists of 10 C++ and 10 Networking concepts
questions
Any how due to my bad luck i was not able to clear that
I think the next rounds will be technical and HR interviews as usual...
Please those coming for attending sony make sure u are well prepared and
thorough with all concepts,..They will be taking a few from a lot...

ALL THE BEST....

Answer / beulah

Hi,

Well, I attended the interview too and went through all the
rounds. I was called on my mobile after a week or so. One
Mr. Praveen spoke to me and told me that I'm shortlisted
and that he will let me know the date of the final
interview. I waited and waited but I didn't receive any
call from him. After much hassles I caught him over his
office phone and he said that they have alredy closed the
position. Big companies like Sony shouldn't be resoting to
such means.

Answer / ankur

Hi all.

I'll continue from where Sivasubramanian has left. Well
after the technical test, that you can give either in C,
C++, Java and other languages, they conducted a Group
Discussion for the remaining candidates.

Before that...just make sure that you ask them about the
negative marking while giving the technical test. In our
time they were a confused lot. Sometimes they were saying
that there is a -ve marking and sometimes they were denying
though -ve making was clearly mentioned on the question
paper. So just be sure of that.

Well our GD topis was "With the prices soaring high should
the government subsidize commodities". We were 12 and time
given was 10 min as they said but it continued for about 25
min. We were not supposed to make a fish market n all that.

So after GD got over and after 30 min of thier own
discussion they declared the result. Six of us got selected
including me.
After the GD we were suppose to give a technical interview.
Mostly they asked about your projects and from academics.
Anyway I found it easy. Many of us were asked to leave
after that but I was supposed to wait for one more tiring
round of interview. Luckily that was an HR interview. In HR
interview the lady asked me about my family and after that
all those crap questions followed. Finally I was asked to
leave. I was told that I'll be called later.

I was thinking after all those hectic rounds of written, GD
& interviews I'll get an offer letter. The irony is am
still waiting of that.

If any of you have got the offer please do let me know 'coz
right now all I am thinking is that this whole walk-in
episode was a big drama and nothing else. No one is
actually getting selected.
Well thats what I think, anyway
