Interview Preparation Tips
Round: Resume Shortlist
Experience: Resume making is an art, as everybody puts it. It is true to a certain extent. Drafting resume requires a lot of time. It took me 20 days to come up with the final resume. I started by preparing a rough draft and corrected it with time. I got it reviewed from many people so as to avoid any grammatical errors and also to check if the flow of sentences is good. It was a daunting task but in the end it turned out well since I made it to the shortlist of several companies.
Tips: You should start with listing down all your achievements (even if they're small). Having done that, try to club different points into one category and divide your resume in sections. This will make reader's job easy to create an impression of you. Ensure that there are no grammatical errors. Also, try to articulate sentences in a way which is easily understandable.
Once your resume is ready, get it reviewed from peers and seniors.
Round: Case Study Interview
Experience: It was a typical market entry case. The interviewer only wanted to check the structure and hence didn't go into details. After asking relevant preliminary questions, I approached this case by understanding two things, one, if there is any opportunity (profitability) within this business and second, if my friend has the required capabilities to enter into this market. The interviewer asked me questions at various parts of the case. I couldn't reach to the recommendation part because of shortage in time.
Tips: Practice sufficient number of market entry cases since these are commonly asked. In the case interview, always try to understand the interviewer's motive behind giving the problem statement. It can be very well understood after 5-10 minutes into the case. Once you know that, it becomes very easy to cast a good impression through solving the case in his desired direction. Also, it is reasonable to ask for interviewer's help whenever needed.
Round: Case Study Interview
Experience: Case details:
This wasn't a simple case as it looks. I tried 2 different approaches but the interviewer wasn't looking convinced. So I tried another approach of dividing the profitability region wise after taking hints from the interviewer. I then went ahead and asked for profitability in different regions where XYZ was operating. It turned out that one country didn't have profitability at par with other countries so I focused on improving profits for that particular country. The problem was somewhere in cost which interviewer helped me find out. Based on it, I gave my recommendations.
Tips: Try to remain calm when you might not pick the right approach at first for case solving. Listen to your interviewer clearly since he might drop hints for laying down initial structure.
Round: HR Interview
Experience: This interview was a typical HR interview taken by a Partner with majority of time spent on my introduction. I am fond of reading political news and this became a subject of interest for the interviewer. My opinions were asked regarding Bihar elections, Modi Govt and new policies. This interview went smoothly but lasted quite long before I was made an offer.
Tips: This type of interview is majorly meant for two things, one is to see whether you are a good fit or not and second is to see whether you have a recall value (something that is unique to you). You should analyze yourself damn well before going into the interview room. From your strengths to weaknesses, everything should be supported by some examples or relevant arguments.
General Tips: With doing 30-35 cases, the required skills for solving cases can be developed. Make sure cases are as diverse as possible.
Skills: Presentation Skills, Communication, Problem Solving Skills
