📌 1. Company Overview
Accenture is a leading global professional services company that helps the world’s top businesses, governments, and organizations build their digital core, optimize operations, accelerate revenue growth, and enhance citizen services—creating tangible value at speed and scale.
📌 2. Position Applied For
Apprentice: Packaged Application Development Associate
📌 3. Resume Shortlisting
Shortlisted based on an aggregate of 75% throughout academics (10th, 12th, and graduation) and matching technical skills.
📌 4. Technical Assessment
Yes, conducted on their assessment portal.
📌 5. Coding Assessment
Yes, included coding challenges.
📌 6. Other Assessments
Communication round (detailed and brief evaluation).
📌 7. Face-to-Face Interview
Yes, conducted virtually on Zoom.
📌 8. Questions Asked
This process included the following stages:
Stage 1: Cognitive & Technical Assessment
- Conducted on Accenture’s portal.
- MCQ-based questions on verbal ability, arithmetic, logical reasoning, and pattern recognition
(similar to Indiabix).
Stage 2: Coding Assessment
- 2 DSA problems:
• Math/arrays (Kadane’s Algorithm - Easy level).
• Strings (Medium level, similar to LeetCode).
- I passed all test cases in the array problem, but only partial test cases in the string problem.
Stage 3: Communication Assessment
- 1-hour session on Zoom with an SDET from Accenture (17+ years of experience).
- Entirely project-focused: detailed questions on my projects, tech stack, and scenarios.
- If you haven’t built projects yourself (e.g., just copied from GitHub without deep understanding),
it’s very tough. Recruiters easily find out.
📌 9. Overall Result
Still pending (no formal rejection or acceptance). My application remains in the portal, preventing me from applying to new opportunities at Accenture.
📌 10. My Experience
I found this opportunity through Naukri. Consistency was key—logging in daily between 8–9 AM, applying regularly, and keeping my profile 100% complete helped me receive this interview call.
All assessment rounds were very smooth, and I cleared the technical round. Later, I received a date and time for the virtual face-to-face interview, which I attended. However, I have not received any update on whether I was selected or rejected. My application status remains pending in their portal, preventing further applications.
Two days after the assessment, I did receive an email confirming that I had cleared it and would be invited to the virtual face-to-face round. I gave the interview, and the recruiter mentioned that updates would be shared via email, but I have not heard back since.
Still, it was a valuable experience. It reminded me how competitive the process is and emphasized the importance of strong technical preparation and honest project work.
📌 11. Conclusion
💡 Key Takeaways:
- A positive attitude, gratitude, and humility are as important as technical skills.
- Stay consistent, patient, and grateful to Allah during your journey.
- Many others are struggling—be kind and supportive.
- Getting any job requires effort and clarity, but getting the right job requires patience and persistence.
- My next step is to master DSA and prepare for core development interviews.
