Mphasis Online Assessment (AMCAT-based) - Fresher / Campus Hiring

Difficulty: easy-moderate5 sections

Compiled from public sources, verify before you rely on it. Mphasis revises this test regularly. Source corroboration: Reasonably corroborated. Re-checked 2 Nov 2026 (OPR-RES-010): Mphasis publishes no test pattern, and no first-hand 2025-26 account of the online test exists, so this page has the weakest data of the set. Confirm the sections, counts, duration and cutoff on your drive notification and the test instructions.

How the test works

Reported

Mphasis runs its fresher/campus first round as an online assessment on the AMCAT platform (Aspiring Minds, now SHL India). It is MCQ-driven with 4 core modules - Quantitative Aptitude, Logical Reasoning, Verbal/English Ability, and Computer Programming (MCQ) - and many drives append a short coding round (1-2 problems in C/C++/Java, sometimes AMCAT 'Automata' error-fix/code-reuse tasks). Some AMCAT configurations also add an 'Attention to Detail' module. HOW IT WORKS: AMCAT is adaptive and section-locked - question difficulty adjusts to your answers, you generally cannot skip or go back within a section, and there is usually no negative marking. Difficulty runs easy-moderate on aptitude and moderate on coding/programming. ON THE NUMBERS: the single most-quoted figure on prep sites is '95 questions in 120 minutes,' but this is a long-standing aggregate figure that has been copy-pasted for years; more careful/recent sources (and AMCAT itself) state that exact per-section question counts and timings follow AMCAT's current configuration and change between drives. Reported totals in the wild range roughly 90-120 minutes with anywhere from ~25 to ~95 questions depending on whether the coding round is bundled in - so treat any per-section count as indicative, not fixed. FLOW AFTER OA: optional Group Discussion (college-dependent) -> Technical interview (projects, DSA, DBMS/OS, sometimes pen-and-paper code) -> HR interview. Typical fresher roles: Associate Software Engineer / Associate Test Engineer. Eligibility (prep sites, not official): 60% in 10th and 12th, a graduation CGPA reported as 6.3 (PrepInsta) or 6.5 (GeeksforGeeks), so sources conflict, and no active backlogs. Mphasis's own campus page names only its programmes (Tier 1 and Tier 2 MLA, MASE) and branch scope (CS, IT and other circuit branches), and says hackathons, coding tests or other assessments are used.

How the interviews go

Reported
  1. 1Technical interview (sometimes combined with HR)
  2. 2HR interview

Resume and projects, OOP, SQL, DSA basics, OS/networks; HR on relocation, shifts, bond acceptance.

Based on several candidates' reports, checked 2 Nov 2026. Interviews vary by drive and interviewer.

What to prep

  • Quantitative aptitude core: number system, LCM/HCF, percentages, profit & loss, ratio & proportion, time-speed-distance, time & work, averages, SI/CI, probability, permutation & combination
  • Logical reasoning: coding-decoding, series, blood relations, directions, syllogisms, seating arrangement, analogies, statement-conclusion
  • Verbal/English: synonyms/antonyms, sentence correction & error spotting, reading comprehension, para-jumbles, contextual vocabulary
  • Computer Programming MCQs: C/C++/Java output & error-finding, OOPs, basic DSA (arrays, strings, linked lists), DBMS/SQL basics, OS basics
  • Coding: be fluent in ONE of C/C++/Java; drill easy-to-moderate problems on strings, digits/numbers, pattern printing and simple DSA
  • Practice AMCAT-style adaptive, no-go-back mock tests (PrepInsta / FACE Prep) to get used to the format, section locking and time pressure

Cut-offs and eligibility (indicative)

Reported

Not officially published by Mphasis. Sectional and overall cutoffs vary by drive, college and role; prep/aggregator sites do not report a reliable fixed cutoff. Practically, you must clear each AMCAT module at its (undisclosed) threshold to advance - do not rely on any specific number quoted online.
