Interview Preparation Tips
Experience: The online test was held at the campus itself. Comprising of 60 odd questions which included 15 aptitude questions and 45 technical questions, the test was of standard difficulty level. The technical questions were from almost all the basic subjects of mechanical, like, strength of materials, fluid mechanics, dynamics of machines, machine design, turbo machinery, etc.
Tips: Aptitude is surely a scoring area, so strive to get all the 15 questions right. Also the technical questions are basic ones so with basic knowledge of the basic subjects these are also not that difficult to answer.
Duration: 1 hour
Total Questions: 60
Round: Technical Interview
Experience: The technical interview was completely a resume based interview. The questions were all based on the technicalities of the achievements, projects and papers undertaken which were mentioned in the resume.
Tips: Keep your resume strong and it should be completely honest.
Round: HR Interview
Experience: The interview which lasted for around an hour was nothing less than a formal talk. The interviewer only sought for the honesty behind all my answers, spontaneity and the thought process I adopt for doing work.
Tips: The HR completely seeks for your intent to join the company and your interest in the work they do. The interview must be completely honest and should be given unprepared.
