Interview Preparation Tips

Round: Resume Shortlist
Experience: For Product management, I highlighted points in my resume. Sponsorship and PR core worked in my favour.

Round: Technical Interview
Experience: It lasted for about 45 minutes. He basically tested my knowledge on product management. He asked my questions on marketing, growth, demographic penetration.

Round: Other Interview
Experience: Second interview was basically a follow up, lasted for almost an hour. He tested me on my consistency and some guesstimates. Like estimate the number of mobile internet users of Quora (which was my favorite product/service)
Tips: Knowledge wasn’t tested as such in any field. Important skill was estimation/prediction.

In the second interview, he followed up on questions from the first interview, so he tested me on my consistency. Consistency is very important!!

General Tips: Do's: If you have a project of your own that would work in your favor. Do many side projects.

Don't's: don't put gen start-ups. You will have to justify those



Practice Quant much earlier. It sets the base for the placement scene. Practice up. Other than that, keep doing the stuff your BC sends. I think that's sufficient. I think reading Economic Times might also help.



First year guys would be free. They should explore a lot of things. The second year, select the option you would want to pursue. Third year, start prioritizing.
