I applied via Recruitment Consulltant and was interviewed before Dec 2022. There was 1 interview round.

Round 1 - Technical 

(3 Questions)

  • Q1. Types of current
  • Ans. 

    There are two types of current: direct current (DC) and alternating current (AC).

    • Direct current (DC) flows in one direction only, typically produced by batteries or power supplies.

    • Alternating current (AC) periodically changes direction, commonly used in household electrical systems.

    • DC is used in electronic devices like computers and cell phones, while AC powers appliances and lighting.

    • Examples of DC include car batteri...

  • Q2. What is volltage value L-L and L-N
  • Ans. 

    Voltage value L-L is the voltage between two phases, while L-N is the voltage between a phase and neutral.

    • Voltage value L-L is also known as line-to-line voltage.

    • Voltage value L-N is also known as line-to-neutral voltage.

    • L-L voltage is typically higher than L-N voltage in a three-phase system.

    • For example, in a 120/208V three-phase system, the L-L voltage is 208V, while the L-N voltage is 120V.

  • Answered by AI
  • Q3. Explain about step and step down transformer
  • Ans. 

    A step-up transformer increases voltage while a step-down transformer decreases voltage.

    • Step-up transformer increases voltage from primary to secondary winding

    • Step-down transformer decreases voltage from primary to secondary winding

    • Step-up transformers are used in power transmission to increase voltage for long-distance transmission

    • Step-down transformers are used in power distribution to decrease voltage for consumer u...

Interview Preparation Tips

Round: Test
Experience: It was pretty easy and generic. Not much related to my branch i.e. Chemical Engineering. Out of 24, 6 were selected for the next round.
Duration: 1 hour 30 minutes

Round: Group Discussion
Experience: 6 of us were given the choice between 2 topics: online shopping vs. Conventional shopping, and the success of swachh bharat. We selected the prior one after a discussion of 1 minute. We were given 3 minutes to brainstorm and 12 minutes to speak, so 12+3 = 15 minutes total. The mediators, that is the HR lady and the technical gentleman, just listened, did not interfere in our discussions.
Tips: Like any GD, it's crucial to demonstrate leadership without being patronising. And to dominate without being disrespectful to others. While it's ok not to take a rigid stance in a GD, it certainly gets you bonus points if you can convince the other person and "bring them to your side". It's not a debate, so even if you argue, you have to come to a more-or-less unanimous conclusion within the set time so your discussion must have a set direction. Bonus points if you're the one giving the direction.
Duration: 15 minutes

Round: HR Interview
Experience: It was for about 10-15 minutes. The HR lady and the tech gentleman were very chill. They began by asking me about myself. I have a startup of my own so I gave a short intro about myself, my immediate family, my goals and then into my startup. They had gone through my CV so they started asking about my activities in college and what I was doing. I think they were trying to figure out my character and if all of it was genuine. Then I again started talking about my startup, so they finally relented and asked me about it. I explained the idea to them and told them that I would want to continue working on my startup. They told me that it was not in accordance with their company's policy to have an employee occupied full-time in two companies. Then I informed them that my startup was my priority, and we agreed that I would not be a good fit for Thermax.
Tips: Be confident, cool and open during the interview. You are already good if you've progressed to the last stage of the selection process. The interviewer already knows you have flair. What they want to figure out is that whether you are the right fit for their company's culture. If you're not, no matter how good you are, they will not select you. And that's ok.

Interview Preparation Tips

Interview preparation tips for other job seekers - Bearings are mechanical assemblies that consist of rolling elements and usually inner and outer races which are used for rotating or linear shaft applications, and there are several different types of bearings, including ball and roller bearings, linear bearings, as well as mounted versions that may use either rolling element bearings or plain bearings. Ball bearings have spherical rolling elements and are used for lower load applications, while roller bearings use cylindrical rolling elements for heavier load carrying requirements. Linear bearings are used for linear movements along shafts and may also have rotational capabilities. Mounted bearings are assemblies in which the bearings are pre-assembled in mountings that, in turn, are bolted to frames, stanchions, etc., and are used for supporting the ends of shafts, conveyor rollers, etc. In addition to ball and roller bearings in their radial, linear, and mounted forms, bearings include those for civil engineering applications, which are called slide bearings; those used in small instruments and the like, known as jewel bearings; and very specialized bearings known collectively as frictionless bearings which includes air and magnetic varieties. Sleeve bearings, journal bearings, and other fluid-film bearings are addressed in the Bushings family.
