Interview preparation tips for other job seekers - Good and prepare your basics

Round: Resume Shortlist
Experience: My resume was mostly civil core with 2 core internships (one on designing & analysis and other on construction processes) and 4 core projects (mostly related to concrete). I had also mentioned about the designing softwares I had learnt in my internship and as a course.
Tips: Write each point in your resume properly depicting your core skills. Write about the learning outcomes from the projects and internships using easily understandable terms.

Round: Group Discussion
Experience: I simply followed the tips mentioned below.
Tips: There were 7 candidates in my GD group. Just grab opportunities to speak in between. Its great if you start or summarize or both. Try to put forward some different perspective/point if possible, rather than just agreeing or disagreeing with others and stand up to it. Eye contact is one important thing and the other is to address (turn head towards them) most of the people in your group while speaking. When someone speaks, your job is to listen while looking at them.

Round: Technical Interview
Experience: I had both HR and technical interviews at the same time in parallel. HR and Tech guy asked questions almost alternatively. It was chill, went on for 35 mins. Just to give you an idea, some of the questions were like, Define yourself in one word; Why should we visit your home city; Is Bandra-Worly sealink serving its purpose etc. They asked me about my projects and internships as well.
Tips: Eye contact is very important, it makes you look confident at least, if you aren't.
Don't be in a hurry to speak. Listen patiently and then you may take few seconds to frame your answer and then deliver. Speak only what you know about, as questions may escalate on something new which you have mentioned. And RELAX, as they are pretty chilled out.
