6 Interview Rounds

Interview Preparation Tips

Round: Resume Shortlist
Tips: Get resume ready early in the process, iterate and improvise based on reviews of seniors. Try getting reviews from friends across IITs (helps to get fresh perspectives and creative ways of writing - especially the POR section)

Round: Test
Experience: Mathematical puzzles and problems
Tips: Be quick - don't spend too much time on a single question
Duration: 90 minutes
Total Questions: 30

Round: Technical Interview
Experience: I wrote down all the involved equations and explained the process in brief. I had a project in speech in one of my earlier interns. Hence, the question was asked. I believe they tested my familiarity with the math stuff and the depth till which I have dug and understood in my earlier projects.
Tips: Be reasonably elaborate but precise. Be calm but show energy and excitement about answering questions, especially where significant amount of puzzle solving or math or problem solving is expected (bonus points for taking the pen out and listing down stuff or working out stuff on paper - to signify and convey things better)

Round: Behavioural Interview
Experience: Was very nice. Usually experienced people are sweet and nice in the interview. And it's nice to reciprocate the same and have a good meaningful discussion.
Tips: Be passionate about stuff you have done/worked on and explain it well. I also remember asking something about the firm to the interviewer, which showed my prior effort to know more about the firm. I believe that gave some brownie points (although I don't say it's absolutely necessary). For any interview, not just this firm, BE GENUINE. That's one most important aspect of an interview.

Skills: Problem solving skills, passion, quick learner
College Name: IIT MADRAS
Motivation: After two core internships, wanted a non-core internship. But after the internship, loved the team and the work they did. Hence, took the PPO!
