Interview Preparation Tips

Round: Resume Shortlist
Experience: I guess they have shortlisted more or less 80-90% of the applications for the written test

Round: Test
Experience: They will ask you to solve 30 numerical questions in 5 minutes.Its all about getting to know your zeal for numbers
Tips: There are several quick math tests available online and having some practice doing them will help
Duration: 5 minutes
Total Questions: 30

Round: Test
Experience: This test has 30 questions and you are given 30 minutes.the difficulty of the questions would be more or less similar to CAT.

Duration: 30 minutes
Total Questions: 30

Round: Stress Interview
Experience: The interviewer tried to create stress from the minute I entered his room.After formal introduction about myself ,he asked me few questions about the courses I did in finance.He started to argue that I am wrong with one of my answers in Accounting,but I was quite sure that I am right.He asked me to prove that I am right.I requested him to allow me to go back to my room and get that accounting book.He allowed me to leave and said that I need not come back if I am wrong.I had a few tense seconds and then I decided to leave as I was quite sure about my answer.I got that book from my room and ca,e back to prove that I am right.He was impressed with my confidence and risk taking ability.He went on to ask me about global economic situations,the crisis of 2008 and some other general questions.
Tips: I don't think there will be such an emphasis about finance in the interview.I had few courses and I initiated the conversations as I had prepared to talk about them.It will be a stress interview and they might test you with puzzles and numbers in the middle of the interview.Be calm,confident and honest.

Round: Stress Interview
Experience: The second interview started and there was an awkward silence for the next 5 minutes(The longest 5 minutes I ever had till then).The interviewer was looking at his phone,ordered for a coffee and then had a look at my resume.Then, he remained silent for the next couple of minutes again after which he finally started conversing with me.He told me a 10 digit number

General Tips: Be yourself.If you have what it takes to work there,they will not miss you
Skills: Emotional Quotient, Ability To Make Quick Calculations, RISK TAKING ABILITY, Ability To Convince, Ability To Cope Up With Stress
