Interview Preparation Tips

Round: Group Discussion

Tips: Agree to disagree, be firm about your opinions but recognize if you are wrong.
Duration: 10 minutes

Round: Case Study Interview
Experience: Tests your approach towards solving problems
Tips: Say your thought process aloud, make broad assumptions first, give realistic numbers to your assumed variables and perform sanity check on solution.

General Tips: IMPORTANT - discuss your salary during interview with Feedback Infra. Clearly ask what your take home component would be. It is wrong on their part but the company first quotes a competitive CTC orally and then after your placement is done, it gives 10-15% lesser CTC on its legal letterhead, but by then you would have declined other offers, so you would not have any choice but to accept this job. They dupe students from IIMs, IITs, SPA Delhi, LSE and also lateral hires on salary aspect. Be very careful, tell them you can only accept or decline their offer after they quote salary on letterhead.
Skill Tips: Be calm
Skills: Approach towards solving problems, Basic mathematics
