Interview Preparation Tips

Round: Test
Experience: The minimum criterion for applying to the company was CGPA more than 6.0 with no backlogs and more than 60% in classes 10th and 12th.
In the written test there were quantitative aptitude questions, logical reasoning questions and few questions from the main topics of mechanical engineering.

Round: Group Discussion
Experience: Our group consisted of 8 students. First we were given 3 topics from which we had to choose the topic of discussion by mutual consent in 2 minutes. The topics were:
Is jugaad innovation?
3 Idiots and Munnabhai MBBS – which movie had a better message?
Can India achieve 9% GDP growth rate by 2020? Why and how?
We chose the first topic and the group discussion went in a civilized manner, everyone got a chance to speak. Finally 5 students were shortlisted for the interview.

Round: HR Interview
Experience: They asked me to explain my internship and one of my projects and asked me to emphasize on what was my role in them.
It was a mix of both technical and HR interviews where in between they were also putting various HR questions like how do I see myself as an individual and what are my family values. They also inquired about my long term goals and how am I suitable for the company. One question that was typical was why was I not pursuing a MBA or MS.
They wanted people who will stick with the company rather than those who would run away for higher education.

Interview Preparation Tips

Round: Test
Experience: Easy to crack.Questions regarding aptitude were quite easy n could be finished within a time span of 20 min. even without prior practice.Some questions were from ic engines which u cud answer only if u love the subject.Rest were very easy if u just know the basics of subject.Some were basic physics.
Tips: U dont have to worry about time which is more then enough in this company's paper.Most companies repeat the same paper in every NIT n even every year. M not sure about this one ,but most companies do so ,so u can ask your friends in different nit's.However u can easily crack it yourself .Some company papers and aptitude questions could be practiced from INDIABIX.COMHave good or at-least avg. knowledge of ic engines.U don require any coaching to crack any campus papers n according to me not even for gate. Just try to have love for the subject u study even if it is a day bfore the exam.If u aspire about dream companies..then hv very gud pointers(9) . However if u want to go in an automobile company 7 to 7.5 is enough. Baaki college me aish karo n be confident.
Duration: 60 minutes
Total Questions: 50

Round: Group Discussion
Experience: was not that easy. Some didnt understood the topic in first go.One of the members asked them to give out the meaning of topic to which they first replied if u dont know the topic go out but the next instant explained coz they wanted the gd to be a healthy one.I was a bit under-confident initially but never felt in my mind m going out.Din spoke too much ,just made my presence felt .
Tips: Dont panic if u dont understand the topic. Listen to others , make new points from their points or elaborate the sameNever look nervous...even if u are.The most important one...Ask the hr's to elaborate the topic if u dont understand it . If your group hesitates ,then you are going for a bigger trouble...so ask...atleast your group then has a chance rather than speaking rubbish.
Duration: 12 minutes

Round: Group Discussion
Experience: They called 3 students from each initially made group of 8. There were a total of 16 students called again.2 groups were made.Initially we thought we were in an unsafe zone...or so called unsure zone and so were made to face another gd...but later realized wen they said...BEST OF BEST...i personally had more points this time but still under-performed by a large margin..coz i was getting interrupted every time and i let the other person speak and some of the points were spoken by others ...i felt a low chance..still i did kept on speaking confidently ,never made them feel that i was going down....
Tips: Be confident whatever situation may be.Always try to keep you point and have a good voice modulation.But even if you are polite to let the other one continue just for the sake of good conversation...that too has a positive effect...atleast on a sensible HR.Dont ever let it come to your face that you are loosing hope.
Duration: 10 minutes

Round: HR Interview
Experience: Out of the 11 selected finally from gd, i was the last one to face the interview. It actually was to be a techno cum hr interview which actually went on to be a purely hr interview.It is actually the way where u divert them.I spoke about my strengths and even went on to connect it with my weaknesses.It was actually stunning that it even went on to connect to a personal question which is rare at an interview.While i thought i ws sureshot rejected...i was first to be selected despite the last interview and even asked to announce the other selected students...which was a gr8 feeling.
Tips: Like i said before ...believe in your capabilities.Sure u cant know everything but be prepared for technical interview too.For me it was a luck by chance.Love what you study,even a least bit,then also.Most of all ,they try to take you down with a shocker...so stay calm and never let the thought come to your mind that i cant do it.

Skill Tips: well all the listed below things are studied either out of interest or for your own satisfaction.Taking a job needs a lil bit of confidence,basic knowledge of concepts n most importantlyBASIC KNOWLEDGE OF YOURSELF :)....the rest are ur added positives.
Skills: GD skills, Knowledge in ic engines
