Hexaware placement test pattern: the GET and PGET rounds, and how to prepare

Hexaware hires freshers as Graduate Engineer Trainees, and prep sites report a second, premier track, PGET, with the same first round and extra coding and discussion rounds after it. Hexaware's own careers site is a job search and describes neither track's process, so the pattern here is reported. The reports agree on the first round's shape, an online test of quantitative, logical and verbal sections with pseudocode and computer fundamentals, and on a software-scored spoken-English assessment, and they differ on the sizes and on where the coding round sits.

Most of the first round is what December Code measures: two of the three aptitude sections, the pseudocode and the computer fundamentals. This page marks each claim, prints both reports' figures, maps the sections to the subjects here, names what the site does not cover, and ends with a practice set from pages whose samples are already public.

December Code is not affiliated with, endorsed by or connected to Hexaware. This page summarises how Hexaware GET and PGET hiring is publicly described, from the sources listed at the end, checked on 29 September 2026. Where a detail comes from prep sites or candidate reports rather than Hexaware itself, the page says so. The notification or test invitation for the drive you are sitting is the source of truth, and where it differs from this page, it is right.

How the process runs

A round is marked official when Hexaware describes it on its own pages, and commonly reported when the description comes from prep sites and candidate reports.

  1. 1

    Application through campus or the careers siteofficial

    Hexaware's careers site lists its openings and is the route for off-campus applicants; campus drives go through placement cells. The drive open to you, its eligibility and its track are in its notification.

  2. 2

    Online aptitude and domain testcommonly reported

    One report gives 90 questions in 90 minutes: quantitative, logical and verbal sections of 20 questions each sharing 60 minutes, then pseudocode and computer fundamentals of 15 each sharing 30 minutes. Another gives about 60 aptitude questions in a shared 60-minute window followed by a separate technical MCQ round. Both report no negative marking in the aptitude sections.

  3. 3

    Communication assessmentcommonly reported

    Reported as a 20-to-30-minute software-scored spoken-English test on the Mettl platform, SpeechX, covering reading, listening, grammar and pronunciation.

  4. 4

    Coding round (PGET, and some GET drives)commonly reported

    Reported for the premier track as two problems in 40 to 90 minutes in C, C++, Java or Python; the other report describes a coding round of two or three easy-to-medium problems in 45 to 60 minutes for GET candidates too. A group discussion is reported as conditional for PGET.

  5. 5

    Technical and HR interviewscommonly reported

    Reported as a technical interview of 15 to 25 minutes on programming, object-oriented concepts and DBMS, then an HR interview of 10 to 20 minutes on fit; one report says campus offers usually follow within one to two weeks.

What the test asks, and what prepares you for it

5 of 7 sections map to a December Code subject. The rest are named below, not glossed over.

SectionWhat it testsPrepare with
Quantitative Aptitudecommonly reportedPercentages, ratios, averages, profit and loss, time and work, speed and distance, interest and probability. Reported as 20 questions sharing an hour with the next two sections.Aptitude
Logical Reasoningcommonly reportedSeries, coding-decoding, blood relations, directions, syllogisms and arrangements. Reported as 20 questions.Aptitude
Verbal Abilitycommonly reportedReading comprehension, grammar, sentence correction and vocabulary. Reported as 20 questions.not covered here
Pseudocodecommonly reportedTrace short pseudocode and predict the result, with a reported emphasis on bitwise operations alongside loops, conditions and arrays. Reported as 15 questions sharing 30 minutes with computer fundamentals.CJavaDSA

One first round, two tracks

The reports describe the same first round for both tracks and more rounds after it for the premier one, which makes the first round the thing to prepare for whichever track you are aiming at. Its aptitude sections share a single hour by report, so time management across sections is part of the test: a candidate who spends the hour on quantitative questions leaves logical and verbal unanswered. With no negative marking reported, every question should get an answer, and the reasoning families, series, coding-decoding and blood relations, are the ones to make automatic.

The pseudocode section is worth specific attention because one report singles out bitwise operations, which most students have not traced since first year. The C pages here cover operators and their traps, and the DSA hub's bit-manipulation page covers the operations themselves. The computer-fundamentals questions are the CS core at a minute each, and each of its five areas has a hub.

The coding round and the premier track

Where the reports place the coding round differs, PGET-only in one and part of the GET process in the other, and the safe assumption is to prepare for it. It is reported at easy-to-medium difficulty, arrays, strings, loops and recursion, in a browser-based editor against test cases. That is implementation rather than algorithm, and the practice that pays is writing correct loops with the boundaries handled. December Code's DSA and language pages carry the reasoning; the typing under a timer needs an editor.

The premier track's extra rounds, a conditional group discussion and a technical interview that reports describe as more demanding, are decided after the coding round, by report. Nothing here describes the two tracks' terms, which are Hexaware's to state.

What Hexaware says, and what to do about the rest

Hexaware's careers site, as read for this page, is a job search; it describes no test. Every figure above is a prep-site report about past drives, and the two reports disagree enough on sizes that a candidate should read their own invitation for the numbers and use this page for the shape and the subjects. The spoken-English assessment and the verbal section are outside what this site covers and need their own preparation, and a student who is strong in the rest should not mistake that for readiness in them.

What December Code covers here, and what it does not

The diagnostic and practice cover Aptitude, DSA, OOP, DBMS, Operating Systems, Computer Networks, C, Java, Python: the subjects behind 5 of the 7 sections above. It does not cover the following, and no page here pretends to:

  • Verbal Ability and the SpeechX spoken-English assessment: two English components, one written and one spoken.
  • The group discussion reported for the premier track.
  • The coding round's execution: December Code prepares the array and string reasoning in MCQ form and does not run your code.
  • The two tracks' terms and how a candidate is placed in one, which the reports describe and Hexaware does not.

What could not be confirmed from Hexaware

  • Every count and duration on this page. The two prep-site reports give 90 questions in 90 minutes and about 60 questions in 60 minutes for the first round, and place the coding round differently; Hexaware publishes no pattern.
  • Whether the premier track exists in every cycle.
  • The one-to-two-week offer timeline, which is a report.

How the diagnostic asks it

One public question per subject, the same one its hub shows. The answer is marked because these are public; in a sitting you choose first, then see why each option is right or wrong.

Aptitude · Percentages · easyAPT-001

In a class of 80 students, 65% passed the mathematics exam. How many students passed?

  1. 155
  2. 252correct
  3. 360
  4. 448

65% of 80 = (65/100) x 80 = 52. So 52 students passed the exam.

DSA · Arrays & Two Pointers · easyDSA-032

Which of the following operations on an unsorted array of n integers takes O(n) time in the worst case?

  1. 1Finding the maximum elementcorrect
  2. 2Appending an element at the end when spare capacity already exists
  3. 3Reading the element at index k
  4. 4Reading the array's length

In an unsorted array the maximum could be anywhere, so every element must be examined: O(n). Indexed reads are O(1) because the address is computed from the base and the index; appending into existing spare capacity just writes one slot, O(1); and the length is stored, so reading it is O(1). Only a sorted array would let the maximum be read directly.
