Interview Preparation Tips

Round: Case Study Interview
Experience: Went by the distribution of kerosene across various nodes & analysed issues. Discussed measure to control it at retailer points (Consumer data digitization, mapping to Aadhar card in the future, etc) as well as at wholesaler points (this is where the bulk of kerosene was lost). Overall, had a good discussion.

Round: Case Study Interview
Experience: Somehow became nervous while doing the initial calculations. Realized it & took a step back to form an income statement of the hotel & broke it into ‘Room’ & ‘Non-Room’ segments. Found out that ‘Non-room’ segment is under heavy losses. Discussed ideas to improve it. I think this interview did not go well. Did not get a good response from Suveer.

Round: Guesstimate Interview
Experience: Broke NEUFC revenue into components (Stadium sales (Tickets+food), Merchandise, Sponsorships, Broadcast revenue, Player transfers, etc). Guesstimate for only the stadium sales for the whole tournament. I think this was the cracker I was waiting for. Interviewer seemed very much impressed.

Round: HR Interview
Experience: Very dis-interested person in front. Did not try to make an eye contact with me. Working with something while I was giving my ‘Tell me about yourself’. After I finished he took a 30 second pause looking down. I had absolutely no idea what was going on. Then he suddenly asks me what is so special about me? Probably my response was satisfying for him and he asked me whether I had any questions for him or not. Then we discussed about his experience at Mck.

General Tips: Never ever panic in the interview. Always keep a smile on your face & answer confidently. While doing your case practices, do take time out to introspect for at least half an hour before sleep every day. This will help you build strong HR answers.

Interview Preparation Tips

Round: Case Study Interview
Experience: Apart from the pleasantries and usual HR questions, the first case was based on automobiles and how the share of the automobiles industry can be improved globally and contribute more to the GDP. I missed out few options but the interviewer was satisfied I discussed those options I had put forward at length.

Round: Case Study Interview
Experience: the case problem was quite long due to which I did not write legibly and the interviewers generally tend to see what you write to judge your thought process. The partner was initially apprehensive about my illegible handwriting.

Round: HR Interview
Experience: I did not memorize my HR answers and deliver it due to which I was able to engage in a conversation due to which the partner was interested and the interview went on for 45 min.

General Tips: During case rounds, make sure you write legibly and think of all the scenarios possible while trying to do MECE. It does not matter if you take 1 or 2 more minutes but keep the interviewer engaged during moments of silence. Be honest in your HR answers and do not tell your HR answers verbatim.
