Interview Preparation Tips
Round: Test
Experience: The sections were Quantitative, Logical, Verbal and Computer Science.The three sections contained very basic questions of general aptitude while the Computer Science section contained questions on Database Management, OS, SQL and Programming Aptitude.
Round: Test
Experience: The question was to program a logic to test the correctness of a solved sudoku. We were allowed to code in C++, Java, C or pseudo code.
Round: Technical Interview
Experience: Were asked simple questions and program them like reversing string without temporary variables, finding the earlier date when entered as string and finding the difference in number of days between them.
I was asked to explain him my internship project in great detail and above all one should be prepared to answer the question 'Why IT?' if from a non IT background. Then I was asked to program a logic for 'Search and replace" tool of MS Word.
Round: HR Interview
Experience: Was asked about my background in detail and stressed again and again on 'Why IT?'. Then he asked me to prepare a summary on the merits and demerits of various Employee Data Management techniques for an organisation. For the end of the interview you should have a question which you would ask to the interviewer.
General Tips: Don't try to over emphasize the correctness of your logic if the interviewer finds a glitch. It irritates him. Be interactive in your HR round. In our case it was the VP of Oracle India who took the final round. So I asked him about his experience in the company. He was very happy to share it with me. But asses your interviewer before you put forth these queries cause your interviewer might not be as jolly as mine was.

Interview Preparation Tips
Round: psychometric test
Experience: Psychometric test which basically consisted of around 50 questions, lot of questions were repeated throughout and this was meant to check how honest and true are we when it comes to judging our own behavior.
Round: Group Discussion
Experience: The topics were easy .
General Tips: The company profile is really confusing . Many confused it with HUL profile i.e supply chain but It was of production and maintenance engineers where basics of BTD , pumps, compressors, chillers, boilers etc was tested rather operations research.
It was challenging because of the high number of applicants and very less intake also it was a bit unexpected as they clearly mentioned it during my interview that my resume was more of research oriented but you never know what they are exactly looking for so it is always good to be true self and honest about it. The interview went on for 35 mins which consisted of around 15 mins of tech and the rest HR.
Skill Tips: Basic subjects like BTD and fluid mechanics along with some concepts of heat transfer should get you through. The applications of the above subjects rather than theory was stressed on.
Be sure and confident with your internship projects and industrial training . Just make sure you know in and out about it.

5 Interview Rounds
Interview Preparation Tips
Round: DEBBUGING ROUND
Experience: A separate debugging (also on Hackerrank )round was conducted.
Round: Technical Interview
Experience: 2 rounds Technical interviews (1-2 hours each ,online on Skype and Hangouts )
General Tips: 1) Start practicing on codechef.com as early as possible (even first years). Go to the Practice Section -> Easy problems and start solving from bottom to top.
2) Participate in Codechef Long and short contests every month
3) Once you are good familiar with basic algorithms you can also solve problems on Hackerrank and Codeforces.
4) I do not prefer reading books. Best resource for learning algorithms is search on Google and see the top 3-4 links.Personal blogs and sites like leetcode and TopCoder tutorials are helpful.
5) Once you are comfortable with coding, you can refer to GeeksforGeeks and CareerCup in the last few weeks to practice company specific questions
6) Try to do at least one course every semester from a MOOC like edx.org , coursera.org .

3 Interview Rounds
Interview Preparation Tips
Round: Test
Experience: First round was a simple round which involved 10 multiple choice questions and 3 coding questions on hackerrank platform.
Round: Technical Interview
Experience: Mainly on topics like networks, data structures and algorithms, operating systems. The interviewers looked for people who have had prior experience in web development and asked questions regarding web development in depth too.
Tips: I recommend everyone to read the book titled, 'Cracking the Coding Interview' as it was helpful in my approach to an interview.
General Tips: The one major thing that would give you the edge in joining Myntra would definitely be exposure to web development. Since it is not a part of the curriculum , it's all the more important for you to familiarize yourself with web development. In fact, a few projects in the same field would put you in a very advantageous position to get the job.
Skill Tips: 1. Start your placement preparations well ahead, no point regretting later.
2. Keep a concise resume. Do not take your resume to several pages.
3. Do not neglect aptitude preparation. Many people do this mistake and end up not clearing the first round for several companies.
4. Be thorough with your basics across all subjects. (Do not neglect any subject, even they you may like a few and dislike the others.)
5. Keep in mind, the interviewers are really friendly and try to make sure that you're not nervous during the interview. All they want to do is to test you. Be confident and give it your best shot.
