Round: Technical + HR Interview
Experience: 1-There was only 1 Interview round.
An employer form was given one day before interview along with an extra paper containing question about what Functional area(production, quality, design, R&D) will u prefer after going to company and why.
2-HR part-
A)-First question was to introduce yourself.
I have answered it and ended it by telling my strength as Pre- planning and time management.
Then they asked me to prove how I have pre planned before coming to interview.
B)-Then other questions related to hobbies and extra-curricular.
In answer to this question I have given the brief overview of all the events and activities in which I have participated.
C)-I have written in my CV writing poem as a hobby, then they told me to narrate few lines of poem.
D)-Then they asked anything recently I have learnt.
In answer to this I have told about my recent summer internships and project allotted there.
E)-They said functional area provided will be according to company requirement. Then I said OK I am comfortable with all departments but I will prefer that dept. which I have filled in the form.
3)-Technical part-
A)-At first they have asked about my projects done under professors.
B)-Then they asked about my FINAL year project I explained it until they said OK. to stop it.
C)-Then they come to AOI(Area of Interest) part.
D)-They asked about why piston up surface shapes (convex/concave) used in 2 stroke and 4 stroke engines?
E)-Then They asked to draw 2 stroke engine with explaining all its parts and working.
F)-Next question was to explain Straight polarity and Reverse polarity in Welding, its uses and basic concept.
G)-Then they asked about Facing operation in lathe whether it can be performed for square cross-section bars or not?
I have answered this question as yes it can be performed but there will be more vibrations and noise; So more lubrication will be required hence cost to make per product will increase that is loss for the company. So it is not performed usually

Interview Preparation Tips

Round: Test
Experience: Aptitude:
Time was short. 3O Qs in 30 minutes was a time-crunch.  As my aptitude is weak, I had put in prior efforts to put up a decent performance. I could solve around 14-15 Qs in that time. 

Technical:
50 Qs in 30 minutes. The Qs were fairly on easier side. Just that, Qs spanned all across chemical engineering, with almost equal weightage on all topics. Most Qs were from past years' GATE papers. I attempted around 40 Qs.
Tips: 1. For aptitude, prepare well in advance if you are weak.
2. Strengthen technical by solving MCQs from Indiabix.com 
3. Since there are no negatives, go for most Qs.

Interview Preparation Tips

Round: Test
Experience: Overall it is a balanced paperIn aptitude, No of questions is 30 in 30 min. most of the question were easy and mostly they are from topics like work, speed, time, distance, series. Some questions are from English like word meaning, antonym, synonym etc.In technical, no. of questions is 50 in 30 min. The questions were from whole of the chemical engg like from thermo, mass, heat, cre but not from process control or instrumentation or from chemical technology. Most of the questions were conceptual and are just theoretical.
Tips: For apti, try to solve questions from www.indiabix.comFor technical, brush up ur conceptual knowledge and try to learn more and more of mass, heat, themo and cre.
Duration: 60 minutes
Total Questions: 80

Round: Technical Interview
Experience: Overall my interview experience is good. I gave around 70 percent of the answers. My interview is purely technical but it was not so with my friend. His interview is 90% HR.So u never know what type of interview u r going to face when u walk in there.In my interview the questions were mostly asked from thermodynamics and its applications.
Tips: Be calm and confident.Try not to get nervous.Never try to attempt the questions of which u don't know the answers. Attempting those questions and thereafter not giving answers properly gives a bad impression.

General Tips: As I previously told try to remain calm and not get nervous.If u do so no one can take that job from u.And by chance u don't get selected, then do not get disheartened and just think about ur mistakes and try to improve them as U are the best judge of yourself.
Skill Tips: Do not get nervous in the interview.Do not try to solve the whole technical paper rather go through it and attempt the questions u think u can do.For improving communication skill, try to communicate with ur friends in English. Read newspaper and communicate with urself in mirror ( this method will particularly help u a lot in improving ur communication skills and will also free u from any kind of presentation fears).
Skills: Confidence, Time Management, Communication
College Name: MNIT
Motivation: yeah RIL is a very good company, very large and with a lot of scope.So just go for it as if u want to build ur repo then it is one of the best platform to do so.
Funny Moments: one of my friend got injured before the interview. So when he entered for the interview,HR saw his hand and asked what happened. So he hold HR that he got slipped on stairs. After that HR said to him "khudko ko sambhal nhi pa rhe company ko kya sambhaloge".. So try not to lose ur senses if u face such kind of things .They just purposely do that to check how u can perform under pressure.And that friend of mine was also selected for the job.

Duration: 1 hour

Round: Technical + HR Interview
Experience: Firstly, a form was given before the interview. In the form, they asked us to fill all our bio data, projects we have done and some basic HR questions. There's only one interviewer. The first question was "Tell me about yourself". He asked based on what we have written in the form. He asked about my goals, role model and also about the company. He mostly checked whether I am interested in the company or not.
Feedback from others - Projects, Interns and technical questions on material science.

College Name: NIT ALLAHABAD

Interview Preparation Tips

Round: Test
Experience: Written test- both aptitude and the core subjects. In Core subject 50 Questions 30 minutes. In Aptitude 30 Questions in 30 minutes. The level of aptitude would be average but the core paper dealt with a lot of basics. For electrical people, a lot of questions were from transformer and induction machine, synchronous machine, Power system, Power electronics basics, Power plant engineering, and switchgear & protection devices. Thirteen people from EEE had appeared for the test

Round: Technical Interview
Experience: They basically look for two qualities, first you have knowledge of the core subjects and second that you would stick with the company at least for some years.

Skill Tips: Try to stick to the core and basically Transformer and machines, switchgear and protection, do not go towards the other subjects of interests as they are not looking for that profile. Be calm, they might look a bit serious people, but they make you very comfortable during interview.
