Even though you don't want to attempt CAT you must definitely practice with its material. Several practice tests all available online too.

Experience: It started with normal conversation where I was asked about my interests then followed by guesstimate and a puzzle. I did the guesstimate well. I stumbled while solving puzzle. But then I went over it again from the beginning and finally solved it.

Interview Preparation Tips
Experience: It was an easy exam(The UL one). Basic quant questions were asked. But easy exams are tricky ones. You cannot afford to make mistakes. So speed and accuracy were expected.
Tips: There are lot of companies that short list based on aptitude test. Most of them short lists around 40-50 people for the next round. So CAT preparation(or the likes of CAT,GRE etc) is a MUST even if you are not actually giving CAT. Speed and Accuracy is required. Practice infinite. Only then you can make it to the short list.

Experience: It was a 40 minute interview.This interview had a bit untidy start. It took time for me to handle the first question, where I had to increase the sales of sofas in a given time. But I took my time, jotted down my thoughts and never stopped again. So, stay cool throughout and it helps. I could do well in all 3 questions.
1. How do we increase Sales of Sofa over next 3 months?
2. Give me a strategy for a vab service to be launched in Chennai?
3. As a Consultant, Suggest revenue generation avenues for a Multiplex in loss.
