Interview Preparation Tips

Round: Test
Experience: Basic English Grammar, basic logical reasoning and analytical reasoning questions. 10 questions from each section and no time limit for separate section. Practice for analytical and verbal is required.
Tips: Practice is a must and have a cool mindset.
Duration: 60 mins minutes
Total Questions: 40 Questions

Round: Group Discussion
Experience: Very versatile topic. Lots of points and examples to be said. Our team consisted of 13 people and the discussion was neat. Provide good examples not personal but general examples. Examples are very important.
Tips: Be up-to-date with recent topics and be clear with points. Don't confuse or don't be aggressive.
Duration: 15 min minutes

Round: HR Interview
Experience: I had an opportunity to impress the HR during the Pre-Placement Talk and I was lucky to be called in first for the interview. The HR remembered my face. There were 2 people (HR Team Head and India Innovation Center Director). HR was more concerned on personal experience and the Director was more focused on what results I had achieved in my projects. The Interview lasted for almost 35-40 mins and they made me so comfortable during the process.
Tips: Be cool and I feel its an advantage if you are the first to give your interview. Be interactive during the PPT because proverbs are written with experience ["First Impression is the Best Impression"]. Try to speak out and if you have to lie at some instance do it if its worth. And if you have low CGPA please don't show it in your resume. Interviewers tend to ask question only from your CV/resume. Don't give them a chance to point out a low point of yours. At the interview CG never matters. Have complete knowledge on your resume. Don't be confused, tensed or frustrated. Have a smile on the face and be humorous. Interviewers like good and interactive people. Try providing personal experience to justify everything you put on your resume.
First and most important do you background study over the company and be clear about the position you are appearing for.

Check out AmbitionBox to find out different tips. Its really worth.

General Tips: Stay cool and never get frustrated.
Wait for your time
Prepare well for aptitude, puzzles and core basics.
The rest is luck. "Ek din hota hai, Ek company hoti hai aur Ek tum ho" believe this phrase. If its your day, nothing will stop you and everything will fall in its path.
