hcl placemnt papers previous

To clear the HCL TECHNOLOGIES written test, all u have to do is use BASIC LOGIC.

Go thro’ all the previous papers. The questions usually get repeated.

There are 4 sections.

1)      Aptitude

2)      General computer concepts

3)      C programming

4)      Flowchart analysis

There’s negative marking. So be careful.

The only constraint is Time.

So if can utilize the time well, then u will definitely clear the test.

ALL THE BEST.

                                                 Aptitude.
