What they hire for

Wipro Service Desk L1 hires graduates who can follow runbooks, document tickets, and escalate without guessing. Interviewers are not looking for deep coding — they want reliability on shift, English clarity, and customer empathy on phone or chat.

Technical questions

Be ready to explain in plain language:

  1. Difference between incident and service request (ITIL-lite).
  2. Steps when a user cannot log in — check caps lock, password expiry, VPN, account lockout, escalate with ticket notes.
  3. What is DNS / IP address — one-sentence definitions are enough at L1.
  4. How you prioritise when three users call at once — triage by business impact, not who shouts loudest.

HR and shift questions

  • Why Wipro / why service desk? — stable IT career, exposure to global clients, learning ITIL tools.
  • Relocation to Bengaluru? — yes only if true; mention housing plan briefly.
  • Notice period — carry relieving letter if experienced.
  • Salary — say “as per company policy for this role” unless you have a competing offer.

Scenario answers

User is angry about slow laptop: Acknowledge frustration → gather model/OS → check disk space and startup apps → schedule hardware check if needed → log ticket with timestamps.

You do not know the fix: Never bluff. Tell the user you will research or escalate to L2 within SLA, and keep them updated on the ticket number.

Practice saying ticket notes out loud: “User reports Outlook disconnecting on Wi-Fi since 9 AM; reboot attempted; issue persists; escalating to L2.”

Frequently Asked Questions

Usually no for L1 fresher desks. You need clear troubleshooting steps, basic OS and networking, and calm communication. Technical support tracks may ask simple scripting or ticket-tool questions.

Say you accept rotational shifts including nights if that is true. Wipro global desks run 24x7. If you cannot do nights, say so honestly — mismatched expectations cause attrition.
