General Tips: The PI was tricky he started off from the very basic stuff and started going into topics I was uncomfortable with but then again I was lucky so they did not go to topics which I actually did not know. Better be ready for the worst, if you prepare well you are definitely guaranteed a job.
Skill Tips: Go through a wide variety of topics because most of the companies assess you mostly on the GD. By being prepared you will be able to deal with it easily. Try to ace the subjects you are good at. They don't want a Jack of all trades but a master of one.
