TEST URSKILL .. that may help u... rest try to find as many online questions

on c as possible........ dont learn nething u r never surein wat platform u will be

put in....

Q. TRNG LOCATION ??

a. Accy HRs will intimate u thru mail as to when ur trainings would start. So

don't bother!You must have given them a preference list as to the order of the

locations u prefer. However, before this "PreferenceList" come a few other

priorities. I'll just list them for you.1. The first priority is based on requirement.

If you've opted for Banglore, but there is a requirement in Mumbai(and nonein

Banglore), you're preference list is gonna be chucked out through the window!2.

If you're preference says Pune, but there are no fresher training facilities in

Pune! So you'll be posted to a trainingfacility(say in Mumbai as that's the

closest to Pune and also if Mumbai can accomodate you). They may

contemplate atransfer later in your career.Now, if you do get posted to a

location you didn't actually picture yourself, you could always request for a

transfer.Your trainings can be anywhere in Mumbai, Hyd, Chennai or B'lore.

The location MAY also depend on ur preferencesheet which u gave while u

successfully cleared the interview. Once ur trainings are over, the HR MAY

post u to adifferent location. But it depende stotally on ur luck wheter u get ur

preferred location..u may or may nt

Q. TRNG ACCOMMODATION ??

a. u guys are gonna get royal accomodation during the first 2 weeks. After that u

better fend for urself. And yeah...when Imean royal... i mean ROYAL!!! Enjoy

while it lasts! Officially...accy wouldn't provide u any help with the

accomodation.However, u could speak to the training co-ordinators here and

they'll help u to get a house on RENT.. yeah... its kindagood that we become

independend soon! In my case, we enjoyed the first week... come back from

office and use theswimming pools and gyms of the places where we stayed,

roamed around, made new friends, got dropped by thecompany bus right in

front of our places,etc! After the first week, u'll fell comfy with a few ppl and

will start hunting for houses after training! Now, these brokers here know that

we're laden with money (IT industry has that kinda reputation),so they make

maximum use of it! Finally most of us found houses...the trainin period is

usually for 2 months...

Q. IN R OFFER LETTR IT'S MENTIONED THT WE'LL B GETTIN 10,000

FOR RELOCATION..??IS IT FIXED.I MEAN EVRYBDY WILL GET THT

OR DO WE NEED 2 SHOW R EXPENSES WHICH WE MADE

4RELOCATION N WE'LL GET THT AMOUNT ONLY [OFCRSE UP2

10000...]???

a. All ur expenses will be reimbursed subject to a MAXIMUM of 10k. If u

produce bills for 8k u'll only be given 8k.However, even if u produce bills for

15k, only 10k will be reimbursed. 5k is ur own expense. I hope I've clarified

this.anything which will contain ur relocation within 10k! And this could also

include ur parents flight charge.

Q. CAN WE CHOSE THE TECHONOLOGY IN TH 2ND MONTH F

TRAININ? OR WE'LL BE ALLOTTED ONE BASEDONE SOME

CONDITIONS..????

a. The HRs, at the end of the first month of training, will ask u which

technology ur most comfy in. If ur comfy with Java,and they've not enough ppl

for Java, they'll put u in Java rather than .NET where they've a greater

requirement. If ur comfy with nothing, then they'll put u in something they feel

best.streams are most of the time decided on random basis, depends upon the

requirement at the moment, but chances arebright that you can choose between,

three-four streams, while in training and you mite end up, getting technology of

your choice,well for swappig, depends upon the hr, if she agrees thats fine.

Q. WAT R THE SUB TAUGHT IN TRNG??

a. practicals - C, data structures, DBMStheory - SDLC etc ...

Q. BENCH PERIOD ??

a. Now on minimum bench period... zero days. You could get locked onto a prj

as soon as u exit training. How long will ube on bench if u get there??? As long

as some prj needs ur services

Q.WEEKLY APPRAISALS...??

a. i guess u meant weekly reviews of what u've done. Thats all time bound and

prj specific. If the prj is into its final phases,u may have a daily review, else it

could be a weekly or a monthly review. Now, if u actually did mean appraisals

as inevaluating ur performance in accy... then the HRs would have no other job

than to keep evaluating We've those kind of appraisals once in six months!

Q. AGREEMENT ??

a. Bond is an agreement between u and the company stating that you'd work

with Accy for a minimum period or else paycompensation to the company

towards your training and allied expenditure. Now, in Accy... UR asked to sign

a bond onlywhen u nearly complete the training. Depending on your

technology, the bond amout may vary. For example the bondamount for Java is

50,000/- whereas that for a hot skill like Peoplesoft, it's 1,00,000/-. The bond

duration is for one year.Hope i've answered this?

Q. HEY,CAN U TELL ME THE WORK PATTERN IS IT HECTIC OR SO??

a. Work is as hectic as the prj demands. If ur into a maintenance prj, in all

probability ur work is pretty chill. If u get intodevelopment, in all probability

the pressure depends on how fast u move things!

Q. WILL THERE B ANY MEDICAL TEST BEFORE JOINING???????

a. no…

Q. THERE ARE A LOT OF RUMOURS THAT IN INDIA ACCENTURE

ONLY HAS OUTSOURCIN NCONSULTANCY...BUT NO CORE

TECHNICAL WORK IS UNDERTAKN....I KNW IT CNT BE TRUE LUKIN

AT THESTRATURE OF THE COMPANY...BUT STILL WANTD TO

CONFIRM IT WID U.....

A. Accenture is Technology, Outsourcing and Consulting company and can

expect all types of work in India. If you in toSolution then the nature of work

will be technology. Working on a outsourcing way is not easy need to come

across lots of challenges. Coz you will be working on a domestic on site format

and its challenging to satisfy the clients and its goodexperience. It also make

you understand how other company works and at the same time how accenture

functions itsoperation.As everyone knows Accenture is the No.1 Consulting

company in the world. And technology in accenture is par frommany other

companies. Lots of scope to learn new techonology. Will scrub shoulders with

many Tech savvy guys.

Q. I HAVE A DOUBT, TELL US SOMETHING ABOUT ON-SITE

OPPURTUNITIES IN ACCY, IT IS OFTEN SAID THATSINCE THERE IS

ENOUGH WORKSPACE IN OTHER COUNTIES FOR ACCY THERE IS

NOT ENOUGH ON-SITEOPPURTUNITES WHEN COMPARED TO

OTHER INDIAN COMPANIES WHICH HAVE LESSER PRESENCE

INOTHER COUNTRIES.

a. Oh yeah... onsite opportunities are again prj dependend. If the prj feels u've

worked long enuf and that the onsite teamcould do with u, u'll be there! How

long... maybe 1-2 yrs!Or else if there a kinda training which the prj wants u to

do and if this training's only available onsite, they'll send u .Now, does accy

give lesser oportunities to go onsite... well Acy has a presence of abt 1.5lac

employees worlwide! Whomall will they give an onsite opportunity? Infy (at

max)has only half accys strength. So u may feel they send ppl onsite moretoo

often. This is my personal opinion. I'm not saying I'm right... but i believe i'm

not wrong either

Q. IS THE SALARY GOING TO BE REVISED BEFORE WE JOIN??

a. sal will increase after u join, confirmd, 1yr after u join dat is.. lol.cheerz..

Q. TEST DURING TRAINING ???

a. well, in training, tests are taken of only those subjects,which are taught during

the training, and yes if you fail, you aregiven two more attempts to secure 60 %,

failing to achieve this, could led to termination.u'll have to take periodical

exams during ur training... just like we have sessionals during our college. But

the onlydifference is, all u need to do here is pass and this performance wouldn't

be considered in ur accy career again.

Q. WHAT WILL BE THE DIFFICULTY OF THE THREE TESTS IN THE

GREENFIELD TRAINING?.LIKE IF U RATE ITOUT OF 5?

A. Three tests there will be1. Technical2. Soft skills3. domain specific1. in

technical, we wil learn C,C++,SQL,RDBMS,S/W engineering etc. rating can be

42. in soft skills , we wil learn communication skills, how to deal with clients

and overall personality development.. ratingagain 43. In domain specific

training, they will put us in specific domain or project , it can be java, data

mining, databases,developing, ERP, SAP etc. so we wil be given specific n

exclusive training for that

Q. DO WE GET TO CHOOSE THE DOMAIN (TECHNOLOGY) WE WANT

TO WORK ON ... OR THE HRS DECIDE ITFOR US ??

a. The HRs decide bro... if we were left to decide for ourself, there wouldn't be

any guy in mainframesU can work broadly on Java, .NET, Peoplesoft, Testing

or Mainframes. Mainframes seem to be in the obsolence mode,so I would

recommend u try to avoid that. Testing is fine and experienced testers are in

great demand too! Peoplesoft isan ERP and it also seems to have regular client

bonuses. Microsoft is currently giving a big boost to .NET by introducingthe

Avanarde prj. And JAVA is evergreen and u can never go obsolete with Java (at

least not so for the next 10 yrs)! Sonow its ur pick.Training...well... i believe

training should always be domain specific. No use teaching u all the domains

when u'll work justin one, right?!! However, first month of training is common

for all.

Q. DOES OUR PERFORMANCE IN THE TRAINING PERIOD HAVE

ANYTHING TO DO WITH THE ALLOTMENT OFDOMAIN AND IDC (IF

WE PERFORM WELL WILL OUR HRS ALLOW US SELECT THE

DOMAIL AND IDC) ?

a. really don't think ur training performance is of any importance for future prjs.

Its just like once u get placed from coll ur % no longer matters at office! Once

ur in, ur IN. Thats all...Why do I think so??? Bcoz, the topper of training batch

as well as ppl who did below avg are posted in the same prj. Sothats why i thing

training performance isn't all that important. Its just impreative u pass, thats all!

Q. IS ACCENTURE HIRE N FIRE COMPANY ??

A. The answer to your question is Accenture is not a hire and fire company. The

only thing accenture wont encourage isfaking them and violating the policy. If

they find that some of them doing then they will immediately sack them. Which

iswith every company. Apart from that accenture is a cool place to work and it

has a very very unique working culture andalso the training in accenture is

second to none.

Q. GROWTH IN ACC ?

A. Growth rate in accenture IS very good only if you are very goodAs far as

growth is concerned its high at accenture if you performing beyond expectation

not just in your project but other activities aswell like attending training and

completing certifications on testing etc. The min hike during appraisal will

be20%. The appraisal cycle happens during the August end and the new revised

salary will be given on Sept salary.

Q. SALARY HIKE ??

A. while hiring they give you less but on the subsequent yr appraisal they will

put you on the industry standard (from 30-50% hike) i think thats a lot.

Q. WATS IDC ?

A. its Indian Delivery Center(Solutions, Services, Enterprise etc).

Q. REGARDING BANK GUARANTEE, I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW

WHETHER WE HAVE TO

PAY ANY AMOUNTINITIALLY FORM OUR POCKETS AS BANK

GUARANTEE OR THINGS OF THAT SORT. ???

a. Absolutely NO!!! All u've to do is sign a guarantee saying u wouldn't leave

accy for at least one yr. This shoudl becountersigned by one blood relative and

another not necessarily blood relative. The countersigning is b'coz if u

dont'tcough up the cash, accy would be legally entitled to extract the money

from ur blood relative! There is absolutely nothingelse to it!!!

Q. IS IT COMPULSORY TO SUBMIT PASSPORT AT THE TIME OF

JOINING?IS THERE ANY RELAXATIONBECAUSE IT'S NOT POSSIBLE

FOR ME TO GET IT BEFORE JULY. I DID NOT GET MY OFFER LETTER

STILL????

a. A passport in simple words just says ur ready to go onsite if the company

wants u to. If u get an onsite opportunity andu don't have a passport then, u'll

have to get one made if u want to go onsite. Thats all!!!

Q. AND I WANTED TO KNOW HOW MUCH ON HAND SALARY WIL

WE GET IF OUR PACKAGE IS 2.7 PA?

a. hand sal cme to 17-18k depends hw u design ur sal..(yes we get to design our

sal..)

Q TRANSPORT ???

a. They provide FREE EXTENSIVE Transport facilities. One of the best in the

software industry. They've buses runningfrom one corner of mumbai to the

next.PS: If u use company transport, ur TA is subject to tax. However, this

would just amt upto Rs.100/- per month. Thats chill,right?!!

Q. ARE WEEKENDS OFF ???

a. Hell yeah!!! But that is unless ur prj doesn't want u to specifically work on

weekends. However, in my career till now,I've never worked on weekends!!!

Q. DRESS CODE...??

a. Business Formals for men (without the tie) and women from Monday thru

Thursday. In friday you can wear any damnthing u want provided it has a

collar(for men) and it doesn't expose tooooo much skin(for women & men)!

Q. WORK CULTURE ??

a. Its a total fundu place and may remind u of college sometimes. The team

lunching together, pulling legs, laughing outloud, running around (rarely.. but

no one stops u), chatting, joking, etc!!! In fact there have also been scenes

where we'veorganized a tug of war within a bay! Now beat that!

Q. ) VARIABLE PAY ??

a. You always get ur variable pay, right?!! Only thing is that it comes ones in

six months or in other words is bi-annual! Itskinda ur one month salary in

advance every year! Do u know anybody who hasn't received their variable pay

in accy?

Q. ESPP ???

a. Hell yeah... accy does have ESPP (Employee Share Purchase Plans) wherein

2.5k of ur salary per month is allotted tobuying shares. The good thing abt this

is u incur no brokerage fees on this purchase.

Q. TEA COFFEE ??

a. I personally dn't drink coffee and tea... but if u really want to carry something

to ur desk... why coffee... why not theFREE HOT CHOCOLATE our machine

vends for u guyz?!!

place & batch of recruitment...they will do the rest..hwever donot change the

phonenumber u gave them...cheerz...

A. The chances are there to be part of MBA programe only for those guys

whose designation are TL and above andconsistently getting a good ratings

Q.

AFTER ONE JOINS THE COMPANY WAT R THE EFFORTS ONE NEEDS

TO PUT IN SO AS TO GET GOODRATINGS AND B CONSISTENT??

A. The utmost criteria to be among the top to push for a good ratings are

1) Good work atitude2) Visibility among the Team3) Good rapport with all the

team members and most importantly with your superiors.4) Need to deliver

your modules on time and also it should be a quality deliverables. Also helping

your peer 5) Good Communication Skill ( This simple word has got big

definition). It doesnt mean just speaking ability it also meanshow good a

communicator you are amongst the team. If you late if you on going on leave

you should communicate inadvance to your supervisor.etc.....

Q. SWAPPING TRNG OR JOINING LOCATION ??

a. Now on Swapping, there are strings attached to the swap! The person with

whom u intend to swap must be acceptableto ur prj too (huge hurdle here as the

prj will have to train these ppl and this means waste of precious time)! If this is

okand ur prj mates are chill with a new person coming into it, the HRs should

be able to sort it out from there!PS: Agar HRs ka bas chalta... they'd given

everyone their preferred location!

Q. AS ACCY DEVIDES OUR CTC IN NET SAL,VAR PAY,LTL.... N ALSO

HEARD THT THEY ALLOW EMPLOYEESTO CONFIGURE IT. CAN

ANY1 TELL ME WTS D BASIC PER MONTH THEY PROVIDE TO A

FRESHER????? NWTS THE PERCENTAGE THEY ALLOW IN PF N

HRA????

a. PF% is self decided. u can put in upto 12% of ur basic sal and the company

will put in the same amt too. So if u put in5%, the company will chip in with

5% too. I guess thats how it works.I'm not really sure how muchur basic will

be... however, it should be something between 9&11k. On ur HRA... I really

don'tknow the %, but it is somewhere between 1.5-3k.

Q. I CAN SEE IN MY OFFER LETTER SOME EXTENSION OF 90 DAYS

PERIOD .. HOW MANY PEOPLE GET INTO IT... WHAT CAN U TALK

ABOUT THAT EXTENSION. ?

a. Extension is something which u can avail if u will are unable to join accy on

the specified date due to personal or whatso ever reasons! All u gotta do is write

a mail to the HR (call her up first to confirm the mail id u gotta send it to) and

askfor an extension. They'll do the rest.

Q. HOW WILL I GET JOINING INFO ??

a. Guyz... u need a valid email id first so that the HRs can send you the jng

letter. Later when u approach ur jng date, theHRs will give u a call to know if

u'll join or not

Q. WHAT IS THE POLICY ON USE OF GADGETS INSIDE THE

COMPANY PREMISES?CELL, IPODS, DIGICAMS, WALKMANS,

LAPTOPS, PEN DRIVES ETC?

a. ur mobile phones are exempt from policy as long as u don't take pics, record

videos, listen to mp3s and allied stuff. Soits quite obvious that walkmans are

against policy. Digicams, pen drives and ipods are a strict NO-NO. And finally

ur

personal laptop will have to be approved by ur manager. If he approves it, u

shouldn't have a prob. However, u can't usewi-fi or any other network to

connect ur laptop!this laptop will be monitored by the accy network. These guys

can monitor ur lappy online anytime of the clock!So u storeanything personal u

can rest be assured of a royal screw session!Accy does allow u to use headsets

attached to ur PC, however, u need to raise a request at some place and they'll

give uur headset. And on why no mp3s??? We were told during induction that

mp3 mostly contain pirated music,so...And the final part... NO ONE STICKS

TO THESE POLICIES!!! ppl do personally listen to mp3s download videos,

takevideos & pics thru their cell cams.... But do make sure u never do this in

front of an evangelic HR!!!

Q. DOESNT ERP NEED DOMAIN SPECIALISTS ???

a. hmmm... yes, ERP does require domain specialists too. But you also need

some ppl who will do all the very basic stuff here, right? Now these freshers

will be trained gradually to match up to their seniors. Besides, if all companies

startlooking for experienced guyz, what'll happen when all these guys buzz

off?!! You could think abt it...

Q. WHAT DO I THINK OF ACCY ADS???

a. Well... I feel they're pretty creative, but unfortunately it fails to reach out to

the common mass as to what accy does. I'veheard ppl saying is accy an

internationaly reknown "sports club"??? Man... that freaked me out... but can't

help it, right?our ads r a bit "tangential" to ordinary ppl.Whn i ws recruited by

ACN most of my relatives said one and the same thing "Why dint u opt for

Infosys? "We may make damn good ads, but i believe ACN will remain under

marketed in india for some more yrs...i think its ppllike u and me who will have

to do the grass root marketing!!!

Q. I WANTED TO KNOW THAT WHAT AALL RECRREATIONAL

FACILITIES CAN B AVAILED IN OFFICES, JAISESWIMMING POOL

ANY SORT OF SPORTS, WATCHING CRICKET ETC..AND YES CAN WE

ENJOY ORKUTINGTHERE ???

a. Another lack lusture stuff from accy... we've only 2TT tables, one pool table

and one helluva(a-m-a-z-i-n-g) GYM, butamazingly small in size too for a 5000

strong building. I guess we do have culturals once in a while too!But the final

word is, I don't think u'll like the recreation facilities they provide here.

Q. WHAT KIND OF MEDICAL FACILITIES I CAN EXPECT FOR MY

PARENTS ???

a. All Accy employees are covered by medical insurance upto Rs.3,00,000. You

can cover upto 6 ppl including urself! All ugotta do is put in ur parents names as

ur dependants. After this whatever medical bills they incur will be

reimbursed.bro... I guess anything which needs a doc! I believe that this is kinda

similar to Mediclaim and other insurance. Irecently wanted to claim for my

Dad's hospital charges (he was admitted for a couple of days for chest

congestion, hadloads of scans done, etc). All these ppl said was, bring along the

originals of all bills along with the photocopy of the scanreports and they'd

reimburse the entire amount

Q.DOES ACCY PROVIDE CUTTING EDGE TECHNOLOGY. ??

a.Depends on what u call cutting edge technology and what kinda job u'll do

later in ur career... Now trainings depend onthe trainers the most. I've come

across amazingly great ppl (who know the A-Z of the topic) as well as really

pathetic ppl(who're just there to get a few brownie points!).

the time u exit accy u'll have good solid fundas and that will make u quite
