Centre For Railway Information Systems Senior Consultant Interview Questions, Process, and Tips

Round: HR Interview
Experience: The first interviewer asked me some questions about myself, Mood Indigo and my experience at ITC. He then asked me to estimate the beer consumption in India and specified that he wants a number at the end and not just an approach. He also seemed interested in the assumptions I had to make along the way. The second interviewer asked me to analyze the profitability of an IT firm in India. After giving a few details he asked me to immediately tell him what I thought was the crux of the case and helped me arrive at the fact that using fixed inputs more is economically more feasible. This particular interviewer made no attempt to make it a &l feel-good one, he was very stern and curt.

Round: HR Interview
Experience: They short listed about 22 students. They had 2 rounds of interviews. I was not able to make to the second round. In the first round I had 2 interviews. In both interviews a case study was given and some HR questions were asked. In my first interview the interviewer gave me a case of a steel industry. It was like that my industry had 2 places from where I can procure my raw material and I had to decide which place is better. I did pretty well in this interview. HR questions included about my academic achievements, why not research, my experience as Mess secretary etc. You will always enjoy giving interview to a consultancy firm because this people make you very comfortable. Though it was my first interview but I was not nervous at all. In my second interview I screwed up my case. The case was about a company which is earning lots of profit and is now looking for new fronts to invest the money. I started talking about vertical integration and horizontal integration in the same field in which company was operating. But in the end interviewer told me that he expected me too look into different new ventures like real estate etc. Though I was not shortlisted further but I enjoyed a lot my first interview.
