What is reported
- 2024 (the 2025 batch): an SVAR communication round, from a candidate's recording dated 26 September 2024.
- 2027 batch: an “English Communication Test” of 30 multiple-choice questions in 30 minutes — grammar, vocabulary, reading comprehension and sentence arrangement — with a 65% minimum, in a process where every round eliminates — placementpreparation.io.
- On 27 September 2026 the placement channel OnlineStudy4u posted that the pattern had “suddenly changed”. Its free Capgemini practice portal has 28 items in 60 minutes: grammar and correction, situational questions, reading, listening, two spoken answers and business writing.
Where sources disagree
The three reports describe three different tests, and whether the current round is spoken, written or both is not confirmed. A guide written before late September 2026 may describe the old pattern.
- Cut-off
- 65% on the written English test, per placementpreparation.io. None reported for a spoken round.
