Sapient cracked!!!

26th Aug, 2007...this has been my luckiest day, in quite a long stretch of not-so-good luck...Today, i cracked Sapient, and i've heard so much about the company, that i cant help but be overjoyed...the questions were from that repeated bunch of sapient questions only, that circulate over the web; but i think what they were looking for was a good and somewhat different (from the solutions available on the net) logic...

I had almost no hopes to begin with, many "todu" programmers from IT/COE were still left; and I being from BT wasn't that much fluent with the coding...anyhow, i glanced over the previous questions, thought of an approach and looked over the net if there was a better way...you actually have to understand the 67 seat problem and think of a logic before running into coding; but that being said, i am no bond, so follow the advice of the pro people...

In the interview, i was asked repeatedly to find alternative approach and a better way of doing things; i'm not too sure how i did here, but i made some suggestions thinking from the common sense...then, some typical HR questions; had to convince him that though I have done projects in BT, i am really a software material; I think i did good coz i saw a fleeting smile on his face; which i assume was because he got impressed...asked me certain situation based questions; how i handle stress; anger of seniors; last minute goof-ups etc...again, i think i did well in this section...in the end, he gave me a feedback that i'm very interrupting; which kindof crashed my iota of hopes, whatever was left...and i actually left with no further expectations...

at 10:45pm , i got a message that i am selected...:))))
can't be happier...
