Who should apply

This role fits you if you:

  • have a bachelor’s degree in CS, IT or a closely related field,
  • are a fresher or have up to 2 years of experience,
  • want to start in manual QA and testing rather than development,
  • are comfortable testing on both Android and iOS.

You may want to look at other roles if you want to write production code, or if you are looking for an automation-only position. Automation knowledge is listed as a preferred skill here, not a requirement.

If you have more than 2 years of experience, check whether the role suits your level, since the page lists 0–2 years.

What the job involves

According to the listing, you would:

  • test mobile applications manually across different devices and platforms,
  • write and run test cases, test plans and test scripts based on project requirements,
  • join team meetings and help improve the testing process,
  • help prepare testing documentation and reports.

Skills required

Mandatory

  • Manual mobile testing techniques and methods
  • Familiarity with iOS and Android and their testing needs
  • Basic understanding of SDLC and STLC
  • Analytical and problem-solving skills
  • Attention to detail and ability to work independently

Preferred

  • Experience with testing tools and bug-tracking software
  • Awareness of automation testing concepts
  • Good communication and teamwork

Qualifications: a relevant bachelor’s degree. Internships or coursework in software testing are a plus.

How to prepare

Manual mobile testing is more than “clicking through an app”. Practise these before you apply:

  • Write test cases for something you know well, like a food-ordering or banking app: preconditions, steps, expected result.
  • Learn what a good bug report contains: clear title, steps to reproduce, expected vs actual result, device and OS version, severity.
  • Know the difference between severity and priority, smoke and regression testing, and functional and exploratory testing.
  • Be able to explain SDLC vs STLC in simple words, with one example.
  • Understand device coverage: why the same app can behave differently on different screen sizes and OS versions.

Resume tips

  • Mention any real testing work: a college project, an internship, a bug you logged on an app.
  • List only tools you can actually discuss in an interview.
  • Add a one-line summary that matches the role, such as “Fresher CS graduate seeking manual mobile QA role”.

Common mistakes to avoid

  • Applying with a resume that shows only development projects and no testing exposure.
  • Claiming automation expertise you can’t explain.
  • Skipping the mobile angle, since the role is specifically about mobile apps.
  • Applying through a link that isn’t Virtusa’s own careers site. Never pay anyone for a job.
