Interview Preparation Tips

Interview preparation tips for other job seekers - I got a chance to interview after clearing the exam and my interview went well. They asked me a mix of all types of technical and HR questions. But still in the final list my name was not there. They did not even select the number they had advertised for. I was disheartened obviously but then I did some research. I found that they do this quite often- post advertisements but do not hire people. A person clears the exam, proves his capability and is selected for interview among 100s of other candidates who appeared, so how come IPPB is unable to shortlist. It feels false play just to collect fees who no sufficient hiring is done. My honest advise is DO NOT WASTE TIME APPLYING HERE.
