I applied through college or university. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Newgen Software (New Delhi) in Nov 2010
Interview
Newgen Softwares selection process is a bit tough, but if you are good, you are surely going to make through it. First of all, they took a written test consisting of aptitute and core. Aptitute paper had questions of varied difficulties, but if you have solved R.S Aggrawal and have some exposure to solving DI questions, you will find it easy.English section was very easy. Core paper was a bit tough and consisted of questions from various subjects. DBMS was asked a lot. Selected students were made to sit in a psychometric test round. It was an elimination round, but don't worry about it at all. Then comes the interview. The technical interviewer asked me the subjects I am comfortable with and asked me questions only from those subjects. Some coding was also given to be done, esp link list problems, fibonocii series,etc. Finally the HR round followed in which they asked general questions about yourself. That's all. So if you are seriously thinking of getting into Newgen, just work upon your area of interest and some C coding.

Interview
There were around 60 candidates from several colleges for the Software Engineer role. The interview process consisted of two technical interviews followed by one HR interview.
In the first technical interview, most candidates were asked basic programming questions in Java (preferred). If they were not comfortable with Java, they were allowed to answer in C++, Python, or even write pseudocode. Basic SQL questions were also asked.
However, my experience was different. When my turn came, the interviewer looked at my resume twice and asked if I knew Java. I explained that I had a good understanding of Java concepts, including OOP and programming fundamentals, and that I could write Java code, although I hadn't practiced it recently and might make minor syntax mistakes.
Despite my explanation, the interviewer said, "We are only looking for candidates who have proven experience in Java." I tried to clarify that I was confident in my Java knowledge, but the interviewer did not consider my response and asked me to leave without conducting the technical interview.
**Suggestion for future candidates:** If you're interviewing for this role, make sure you practice Java coding beforehand. They appear to expect candidates to demonstrate hands-on Java coding skills rather than just theoretical knowledge, so be comfortable writing Java code during the interview.
Dsa problems basic linked list problems, Basics of CSE Curriculum , Sql (use of WHERE and GROUP BY) , SORTING algorithms , few Questions from Resume , few question on my Project .
It was a java based interview. They mainly focus on two things 1. oops and 2. Sql . In dsa they ask basic questions like array transformatio, fibonaaci seriess , filter out odd or even
