Interview Preparation Tips

Round: Test
Tips: Common misunderstanding:- written test = quantitative aptitude.
Other sections must be covered as well.- LR, DI, verbal & non verbal problems etc.Try to cover maximum types of topics with a basic knowledge of each type, rather than practicing a few topic very deeply.

Round: Group Discussion
Experience: Reading the newspaper is sufficient.
Tips: Reading the newspaper is sufficient.

Round: Technical Interview
Experience: The panel was quite cooperative, except for one member,( he remained stiff and quite strict, not at all polite, used to ask questions out of nowhere & expected brief answers and interrupted in case they went any longer ). This obviously was a part of their approach, to check how I reacted to sudden strict questions.


Questions were mainly technical, along with some general queries related to family, hobbies & interests, what have you learned from your hobbies or simple basic questions to check whether you're lying.

Body language was being observed keenly.

There is no point rushing things and ending up being choked, looking for proper words to complete the sentence. (happens a lot in interviews)
I took my time in answering the questions, whenever i needed to think.
Tips: Know your strength as well as the weak points and be prepared with strong, positive answers.

Skill Tips: never mug up what you're going to say and never lie, if possible.Even if you know the answer (easy question) answer politely, stay calm.Collecting numerous certificates is of no real use, as far as placements are concerned.(core companies).
