Interview Preparation Tips
Round: Resume Shortlist
Experience: Based on a cut off of 7.5
Round: Group Discussion
Experience: 5-7 minutes.Abstract topic, so open ended. Within logical boundaries you could be as creative as possible. The discussion went from importance of binary system to philosophical bearings of "its all relative". We had to sum up key points discussed towards the end of GD with positives and negatives of "life without zero".
Tips: Don'ts:Never look at the moderator while making your point, always engage your colleagues.Never interrupt other person midway, if the moderator is sensible enough, everyone would get chance to make their point.Dos:You don't always have to jump to start the GD, but try to put across your points articulately when your turn comes.Always bring a pen and Paper to GD (In case they don't provide) to note down your point of view on the topic.If possible, try to set the tone of the GD in the beginning by pointing out different aspects that can be discussed. (You might get brownie points for that)
Round: Case Study Interview
Experience: This round was lasted for around half an hour. I had interned in a Private Equity Research firm focusing on greentech. So they picked up a case from my resume. (This might happen, so be thorough with your internships). They will look for you ability to break-down a problem statement to smaller streams, multidimensional approach and clarity in thought process.
Tips: 1. Reiterate the problem statement before you start solving the case 2. Think out loud with possible approaches, solutions, etc and pros and cons for each one3. Summarize at the end
Round: HR Interview
Experience: Lasted for almost an hour.Typical questions like1. Tell me something about yourself2. Why consulting and KPMG3. Long term goals and how KPMG fits in 4. 3 things you feel you need to improve upon
Tips: "Tell me something about yourself" sets the tone for this round so be prepared with a quick 2-3 minutes response to steer the discussion towards the points you want to highlight from your resume.
A few stress interview questions. Make sure you take your time to answer without panicking.
General Tips: 1. Be clear on what type of companies you want to apply (Core, Consult, Fin, etc) and why2. Don't fall pray to peer pressure. Company-candidate fit is the most important thing from long term perspective.
3. Be thorough with your resume and story line4. Practice HR questions with your wing mates
Skills: Problem Solving
College Name: IIT MADRAS
Motivation: I was interested working in consult to begin my career, as it gives you good exposure across companies, sectors, you get to interact with different kinds of people and yea you get to travel.
Funny Moments: One of the consultant who had come down for tech rounds interacted with me outside the room and we had a chat on Saarang and Cricket for a while. Helped me settle down quickly during the interview.

6 Interview Rounds
Interview Preparation Tips
Round: Resume Shortlist
Experience: You are shortlisted based on your application & resume. I feel more importance is given to the application. You are asked to list out and briefly explain your internships, projects, extra/co-curricular activities and any Positions of responsibilities you have held. You also have to give in a couple of short essays highlighting your short and long term objectives, achievements and an instance where you applied your mind over matter.
Tips: You are rated on five different aspects - CGPA, Internships, Projects, Extra/Co-curricular activities and PORs. Be sure to bring out your strengths in a clear and concise manner.
Round: Group Discussion
Experience: The GD happened in groups of six and was for 30 minutes which included the five minutes of prep time. We were presented with five different energy sources available in a hypothetical region. The objective was to come up with a consensus the best alternative to solve the energy crisis in the region.
We came up with a couple of key parameters and rated each of the projects based on those. We weren't able to reach a conclusion.
Tips: The moderator looks for a structure in your analysis and the manner in which you present it to the team. It'll be great if everyone agrees with your point which reflects your natural leadership skills. Your body language counts a lot. Stay attentive and look engaged and passionate about the discussion. You get points for starting a GD but do so only if you have a good point in mind. Never put any disagreement to a vote - try reaching a consensus.
Duration: 30 min minutes
Round: Technical Interview
Experience: The first round went on for about 45 minutes. The first few questions were a set of typical HR introductory questions. Next the questions were primarily about my interships and projects. I found this round pretty fast paced and rapid. They would randomly pick something from my resume (So be through with everything on your resume!) and would ask me to briefly explain it. Then there were tons of follow up questions, for example, why did you use this pump, why did you limit your model to these inputs etc. There were also a few HR questions which were behavioral in nature - wherein you would be asked to give an instance from your life that illustrated a competency like people skills conflict resolution etc.
Tips: Make sure you are able to speak constructively about every line in your resume. Have a clear understanding of every project/internship. Revise all your courses from a practical standpoint. I would highly recommend going through the Lab experiments and their respective chapters in McCabe & Smith.
Round: HR Interview
Experience: The second interview was reasonably laid back and chilled out. I was interviewed by the CEO and MDs of the ITC Printing and Packaging division. The interview went on for about 20 minutes and was HR based.
Tips: Interviews are nothing but a story telling competition. Pick a unifying theme and prepare a story for yourself. This should come out in the first two/three minutes of the interview. Make sure you have a rationale behind having done everything you have put in your resume. The interviewers look at your resume in its totality and not as bunch of independent spikes.
DO NOT mug up answers to standard HR questions. You'll sound unnatural and fake and won't strike a chord with the interviewer. Have a set of bullet points ready and go over them in a way you would, when you meet someone on a train.
Skills: Technical Knowlegde, Communication, Confidence and ability to deal with stress, Leadership skills, Taking initiatives , Ability to deliver on a project, Team skills, innovating

5 Interview Rounds
Interview Preparation Tips
Round: Test
Experience: It was a normal test to evaluate the students on how they would react to various situations in a corporate environment.
Tips: Keep your thoughts straight and answer the questions honestly. It should be a piece of cake.
Duration: 90 minutes
Round: Group Discussion
Experience: A total of 7 words were given and we were told to make out whatever we could out of them. Every other candidate connected the words with Vodafone since the last word that was given was 4G (LTE Technology), but i chose to connect them with IPL. I was the first one to be selected along with two other guys, who also made their points well.
Tips: They look for ideas that are novel and out-of-the-box. They are looking for individuals who can stand out from the group and also make valid points. You shouldn't join the bandwagon and talk about the same thing everyone else is talking nor should you go completely off-track making it sound gibberish. Have a strong idea or a point and go for the attack. Also do not try to intimidate others or get intimidated. Respect everyone's opinion and make sure your opinion counts.
Duration: 25 minutes
Round: Behavioural Interview
Experience: The whole interview centered around whatever I have done in my four years of college. I was told to explain about my projects, my coordinator roles and various other activities that I have done. They also want to make sure that you are up for challenges if you're put out of your comfort zones (that's how the job is gonna be).
Tips: Be confident. That is the biggest tip that can be given. Explain yourself well, make sure you let them know that you're interested in working for them and try to show them that you are capable for technical as well as leadership roles. Make sure to show yourself as a well-rounded individual with a passion for learning.
General Tips: Stay confident and motivated through the whole process, so that you would send a positive vibe in the GD and Interviews. That goes a long way, more than your other skills.
Skills: Able To Speak With Perception, Confidence, Leadership Skills
College Name: IIT MADRAS
Motivation: Techno-managerial profile. Vodafone brand value. Interesting work culture.
Funny Moments: I didn't start talking in the GD until 5 people have made their points and my close friend, who was also sitting next to me during the GD nudged me to start talking or else everyone would ignore me. When i did start talking and started connecting the words with IPL, everyone were puzzled and that moment I thought I screwed up. But when I had completed talking I knew that I had nailed it. :)

6 Interview Rounds
Interview Preparation Tips
Round: Resume Shortlist
Tips: 1 or 2 page Resume. Stress on your positions of responsibilities, internships and your academic projects. Try to highlight the mathematical values about your project (eg: 50 lakh investment, 20 lakh returns, 20% efficiency increase etc etc)
Round: Group Discussion
Experience: Some story with different characters and their involvement in the situation was given. The story revolves around work ethics and maintenance of confidential information about the company. At the end we need to discuss and come to a conclusion as to who is main culprit or the person responsible for causing the problem in the company.
Tips: Don't be too demanding or too easy going in the GD. If you don't know how to start just wait so that someone will catch up and u can definitely join in. It's good if you can start first but make sure you have enough content to be put up bcoz u started first. Don't try to cut other's while they speak but try to remain in the conversation as much as you can. Try to give a proper conclusion from your end as much as possible because I feel that the reviewers will be very attentive towards the end than in the middle. Even if your GD doesn't go well don't worry bcoz there are points both for your application and GD so if you have a strong application then you can easily be shortlisted.
Round: Technical Interview
Experience: I had an internship in P&G. ITC being an FMCG too most of my interview revolved around the work I did in P&G. It was easy for me bcoz I just had to explain all the stuff which I already did. They asked a bit about my POR's and sports and I explained them briefly..that's it :)
Tips: be thorough with ur resume. They will mostly be asking points from ur resume itself so if you are thorough with ur resume points you can easily get through this round. Prepare some basic core questions from your subjects like thermodynamics, strength of materials etc bcoz they are definitely going to ask you questions about them.
Round: HR Interview
Experience: This interview is mainly to understand whether u r a right fit to ITC or not. They will ask u questions as I stated above. Try to be honest as possible but make sure u don't say anything which is not in line with the company (For eg: When they say about factory work say them that u like it ..if u r honest and say u dont like factory work then there are high chances that u wont be selected bcoz they are mainly looking for people to work in factories in supply chain profile)
Tips: When they questions about other interviews (and if u r actually attending other company interviews) be honest and say them the truth. Don't say that u r not attending others bcoz they will have the list of all companies u r shortlisted on Day-1..
As you know ITC is an Indian FMCG so try not to focus on other things abroad. They might ask some trap questions like ..Do u like working in foreign countries etc..here u should not say no but yes either..try to put in a good way which favour them the most. (u can say that India is a developing country and there is a lot of potential which can be tapped here so focusing in India can definitely be good in the future..something like that..:P)
Finally I want to say that its not about ITC or any other company whenever u attend any interview try to be yourself and use your words properly which will give a positive impact to the interviewer that you can actually profit the company a lot than anyone else.
Hope it helps :)
Skill Tips: GPA (good if u have 8.0+)
Skills: Internship work, Positions of responsibility , Leadership skills, team work
College Name: IIT MADRAS
Motivation: Good FMCG..great growth (if u work straight for 15 yrs in ITC u can easily reach the top positions of the company)..nice pay :P
good hours of work like may be max 10hrs per day...
