1 interview found

I was interviewed before May 2016.

5 Interview Rounds

Interview Preparation Tips

Round: Resume Shortlist
Experience: based on Cg.
No test was conducted.

Round: Group Activity
Experience: Nil
I selected this round by mistake.
there was only 1 round.

Round: HR Interview
Experience: We had 3 rounds of interview - first HR followed by two case study rounds. There were three panellist, one HR and the other two technical ones.

First round was specificaly HR round. They asked puzzles as well for this round. But even in the subsequent rounds, they didn't limit themselves to case studies but asked a few basic introduction questions as well. Some standard puzzles were asked in this round - a famous gold puzzle was asked to me. When I told that I know the answer, then they didn't grill me on it. The panellist were insti guys only - so questions like 'Why Saarang coreship ?' and 'Why choosing this track ?' were asked. The HR round also had a bit of senior junior interaction taste - question like 'Most interesting thing in insti' was asked. The 2nd and 3rd round were case study rounds both related to food-delivery only, Swiggy being related to that field. 1st one was a classic case study - sales were increasing but the monthly profits were falling. I solved it and gave suggestions to them. They were asking for data to support our claim. Out of 20-25 students from the first round, only 4 went to 2nd round and subsequently 3 to the 3rd round. 3rd round case study was about problem identification - how to reduce per delivery cost from Rs. 75 (hypothetical value). This was an open ended question and so was different from the first case study.



Tips: As it is a startup so I expected questions broadly related to 3 categories - HR, puzzles, and case studies. For puzzles and case studies - Day 1.0 is the book. Casing point is the book from which you can get even more difficult case studies. I also found a very good link in Quora - in which all the possible puzzles were given. Some HR questions like 'Why startup ?' & 'Why not the convenional company ?' were expected. I reffered to websites like 'themuse.com' for career planning which was very useful.
