An aptitude test is quite vital for placements as it helps in enhancing the logical skills of the person and if someone is preparing for interviews then aptitude preparation is very much required. Hiring can be both off-campus and on-campus but the procedure of selection is almost the same that is sorting out candidates on the basis of basic aptitude tests. If going for programming placement maths is a must, as it is the most important aspect of coding.

Aptitude for Placements

The recruiters ask questions regarding logical reasoning, quantitative aptitude, data interpretation, and verbal ability. So if you are going for placements then you must prepare well and these things are also useful for competitive examinations, entrance tests, interviews, government examinations, etc. The aptitude test is conducted offline or online depending on the companies. Mostly the mass recruiters companies such as TCS, Wipro, Capgemini, Cognizant, and Infosys conduct their screening test i.e. the aptitude test online as it is quite easy to evaluate. 

The selection process mostly includes-

  1. Aptitude Test
  2. Coding Round/Group Discussion
  3. Multiple Face To Face Interviews (including the HR Round)

What is Aptitude Test?

An aptitude test or exam is something that is used for determining the skills of an individual. With the help of an aptitude test, one can assume the strength and weaknesses of an individual and their inclination towards success and failure. 

The four basic types of aptitude tests are logical aptitude, spatial aptitude, organizational aptitude, and physical aptitude. Also, aptitude is used in companies for testing the mental awareness, problem-solving skills, and accuracy of the candidate. 

Why are Aptitude Tests Important for Campus Placement?

An aptitude test is important for campus placement as it helps in evaluating the employability skills of the candidate. Good aptitude skills allow the person to stand differently in the crowd. Aptitude tests also help in finding suitable graduates by making a precise assessment based on logical, analytical, verbal, and numerical abilities.
