Experience: There was no negative marking in test(but our seniors got the paper with negative marking so nothing can be predicted for future) but there was time limit so u have to maintain ur speed,once u move forward for next question u can not go back to previous question so u have to be careful which question u have to skip.questions were not very easy nor they were tough,mathematics questions were from 11 12 class not from the B.Tech course.
Tips: for aptitude questions plz go through all types of patterns(work,wages,profit loss,capital interest,principal interest,average.speed,distance,time ), u can get them in MADE EASY aptitude book,for technical go through all the subjects(machines,power system,analog,digital,instrumentation,networks,control system)because there was atleast one question from each subject although they were easy ,if u r preparing for GATE u just need remember the basic ,the can be solved on finger tips

Round: Case Study Interview
Experience: Candidate should start with explaining a basic process of hiring any individual and rope in interviewer to provide the details/guide you. Hiring process detail can be directly asked too; however, first providing a brief process and then asking gives brownie points. Basic hiring process: Advertisement of Job -> Applications received -> First level of review -> Segregating applications according to departments -> Department level review -> Interview -> Offer made -> Offer Accepted Upon asking the details from the interviewer, he provided a sheetwhich had following information that could have been easily interpreted. (This should be given by interviewer when asked by interviewee) 1) The number of application received were very less 2) Time taken for reviewing applications were very high 3) The number of applications dropped drastically at first four steps 4) Last three steps were fine. However conversion ratio was less than 5% Once the above information is provided, interviewer must ask for the possible reasons for each statement from the candidate. Following reasons should be provided by the interviewee: 1) New hires, laterals, internal transfer - Not many people looking for job, employment rate very high, not enough students, lack of skills explain first two. For internal transfer rural location and inconvenience caused is the main concern 2) Number of HR people employed very less or not enough skill, hence time taken very high. Due to less skill full HR more applications are send to wrong departments hence overall process takes time 3) Department could be very stressed with existing work; hence not enough time devoted to hiring leading to loss in applications.

Recommended solution should be provided by candidate. Following are a few: 1) Open the plant close to city not only within Denmark but also other countries where talent pool is high 2) Advertise jobs at right portals. Look for international hires too 3) Separate the functions – sales and engineering can be located at different places than manufacturing setup 4) Increase HR work force, train them to evaluate profiles properly before sending to department review 5) Incentivize department by aligning their job responsibility accordingly Summarize the case.

PI questions
•Tell me about a situation where you did something inappropriate.
•What do you think your previous company is doing right in terms of motivating Indian employees? (Since my previous company is MNC) This was a stress interview in terms of kind of questions asked. Your ability to handle difficult questions was being tested
Tips: As you can see the case isn’t much hard. The focus is more on structured approach and the way you are involving the interviewer. This was the feedback that I received. 9) Scoping and summary was good 10) Could have involved the interviewer more In general for SMC, prepare for PI. Very important component

Round: aptitude test
Experience: The aptitude test consisted of verbal, analytical and numerical questions with sufficient time to answer the questions.

Round: Technical test
Experience: The technical test contained questions from almost all the compulsory courses that you may have studied over the past four-five years, mostly conceptual though but there were some numerical questions as well.

Round: Group Discussion
Experience: There was a group discussion on the topic ‘Is quality a myth in India? ‘ to eliminate a few students and the rest were selected for the final interviews.

Round: technical interview
Experience: Interview lasted for about 25-30 minutes. They started by asking about my interests and backgrounds and then came directly into questions related to my areas of interests. They asked questions about torque transmission through a shaft, I-beams, stress-strain and buckling and a little background about my thesis followed by one basic question related to it. The final 10-12 minutes were spent in discussing the questions that I had asked the interviewers and it also helped in lightening the mood, so I would suggest be ready to ask the interviewer a few questions to show that you are genuinely interested
During the interview questions were asked mostly from my areas of interests and a little about my thesis and internships. But it is important to know one or two courses very thoroughly.


General Tips: Do’s and Don’ts :
● Do not take GD’s lightly, I ignored it till the very last moment and did my first GD on the night before the actual GD. It is a shortlisting criteria for many mechanical engineering core companies and you wouldn’t want to lose out there.
● Read about your thesis and internships properly. Many of your interviews would revolve around that only.
● Select one or two major courses and prepare them thoroughly, you may be asked about the courses that you liked at IITK followed by some questions related to it.
● Practice explaining your projects and HR questions with someone.
● Get to know a little about the company before the interview. You may drop that information somewhere during the interview to show your interest. Also be ready to ask a question at the end.
● Don’t copy answers to HR questions from the internet, write your own and try to remember the key points.
● Don’t lose heart if you are not shortlisted or not selected. There are a lot of other options.

Interview preparation tips for other job seekers - focus mainly on steel making and iron making perfectly then go for remaining subjects and should know each and every point in iron carbon phase diagram.

Round: Test
Experience: PPO- I was selected for intern after my third year. There was no cut- off for written test. So almost whole mechanical branch was present there. 120 questions were there; 30 apti and 90 tech. Apti were ok type, I rate the toughness level 7/10. But the technical part was pretty tough.
Total Questions: 120

Round: Other Interview
Experience: Out of around 110 students, 10 were shorlisted for the interview

General Tips: Interview was purely technical, so I would suggest STUDY, nothing else will help. HR questions were pretty simple and I don't think they were serious about HR part. Well I was told that company has excellent policy of awarding PPOs, I was pretty happy with that.
Skill Tips: Well, I was not at all prepared. Anyways, the technical part they asked, it wouldn't have helped much even if I studied.More weightage was from thermodynamics, MOM, SOM and metal cutting.
