College Name: Delhi Technological University, Delhi

Round: Test
Experience: It was like nothing I had expected. the Apti and maths part was doable. You need a weeks preparation to get a good speed through these type of questions. The tech questions were completely fundamental. I am a EE grad. Questions from analog, circuits, very basic EMT was there. Even a few question from Power plant engg and gears.
Tips: Its a waste of time predicting the scope of the test. It has nothing to do with the company profile,or your forte. They can ask you anything engg related. You need to have the right mind, a reasoning skill to think it through. Even if its beyond your scope or know-how...calm down...think basic,fundamental of the subject,you would crack it :)

Round: Group Discussion
Experience: We were a mixed group. Metallurgy,Mechanical,Electrical. It was a 10 people panel discussion. Three interviewers watched over. And yes,it was a bloodbath! It was a mixed batch so nobody was ready to compromise. I tried to raise my voice say my point. Keep it short and unique and catchy! They said it was the worst gd of the day. and still selected 5 of us for the next round!
Tips: They wanna see leadership skills, out of the box thinking and fluency! You need to be a good english speaker. There isnt a by-lane for that,you have to be fluent. A tip--> Make your point and then call out the one who is not speaking and give him/her a chance to speak. That shows leadership and teamwork capabilities. If its too much chaos, try to bring order! That looks better than creating anarchy! Oh and dont fight to conclude! They give each of you a minute to conclude your idea and place it in a proper unhindered way! DONT BE RUDE!! BE POITE! BE LOUD, BUT VERY VERY POLITE!!  Say,may I please have the chance to add to this discussion,I have something relevant to say in this regard...like that. Scream things like that,they dont look like you are quarreling!

General Tips: Interviewers do not come with a list of questions, they frame the question based on your answer to the previous one. So do not use high-tech words in your answer unless you are completely aware of it.And whenever you get questions from the subject you are not comfortable, somehow relate the answers to your project or internship or your strong subject which might change the current subject.
Skill Tips: If possible ,go through the basics of all topics that you have studied in the last three years. Choose the topic you like most and concentrate more on it. In interview, mostly they'll ask your strong subject first and ask questions on it.
