What is PRT?


PRT i.e. Placement Readiness Test, is conducted for learners enrolled in Intellipaat's university collaboration or Bootcamp programs. Learners who pass the PRT become part of the Placement Pool, which grants them access to placement assistance, including mock interviews, resume development, LinkedIn profile assistance, and placement opportunities.


PRT Structure:


- Round 1 - PRT Written Test:

  - A written test conducted in a proctored live session.

  - It consists of questions that need to be answered, written, or documented.

  - The test duration is typically 120-180 minutes.

  - Learners who achieve the cutoff marks in the written test proceed to Round 2.
Note: Written test results are shared via email from Learn@intellipaat.com or traininginvite@intellipaat.com within 14-20 working days.


- Round 2 - PRT Technical Round (1-to-1):

  - A one-on-one technical interview with a technical associate.

  - The interview focuses on core modules of the learner's program.

  - The technical round is conducted within 7 working days of the written test results.

  - Results/feedback are usually provided during the interview upon the completion of the interview.
Note:  Technical round scheduling is based on the learner's availability, usually conducted on weekdays in 15-20 minute slots.


Eligibility Criteria:


- Learners must complete 80% of the program.

- Submission of all mandatory assignments and projects from the LMS portal.

- Participation in live sessions with at least 60% attendance.


By adhering to these guidelines and criteria, learners can effectively prepare for and participate in the PRT, enhancing their readiness for placement opportunities.

What happens if I fail PRT Round 1?


If a learner fails to score the cut-off marks in the PRT Round 1 written test, they will be required to reattempt the PRT after 30 working days from the previous PRT date. This interval allows time for better preparation. During this period, learners can reach out to Support/DLM for sample PRT papers and content, and revisit the session materials to improve their readiness for the next PRT test.


What happens if I fail PRT Round 2?


If a learner fails to score the cut-off marks in the PRT Round 2 technical test, they will also be asked to reattempt the PRT after 30 working days from the previous PRT date. Notably, learners who fail Round 2 must first successfully complete Round 1 (written test) again before proceeding to the Round 2 technical test.
