The placement process upto the interview is just a mere formality. If you clear the aptitude you are virtually through to the interview stage. This is the stage where the company is going to separate the Men from the Boys [Or Women from the Girls!!!]. You have two stages:
1. Technical Interview
2. HR interview
Phase 1:Technical
This is the most difficult part of the entire campus selection process. Here you will be drilled with technical questions from your area of expertise or more likely it is based on what the interviewer is strong in. To prepare for this you need to know the basics of your subject like data structures, networks and algorithms. If you are clear with the basics, you should be able to answer the questions quite easily. If the questions seem too difficult it is better to state truthfully that you do not know rather than try something foolish. You can always say that you are not comfortable with so and so area but be polite always. One more tip is if you are going to answer wrongly atleast answer wrongly CONFIDENTLY.But remember too much of a good thing is bad so too much confidence- obviously over-confidence. So do not try to be smarter than the interviewer, they wil not like it.Do not get tensed up before the interview, after all the interviewer is a human being.He is not likely to eat you up. Be calm and confident and you are through.
Phase 2:HR
Once you clear the technical,HR is very easy. They just ask questions to test your attitude. It is better to be straight forward to the interviewer. Sometimes the HR interviewer will try to stress you out. Never burst out in anger. Just point out the fault in a diplomatic manner. They want to test your temper so better keep cool.
Ultimately the three Cs--->Calm Confident and Cool. That is all you need.
