College Name: VIT VELLORE

Round: Test
Experience: Round1 : Apti, Basic quant, verbal and reasoning. 35-40 out of 200 were shortlisted thereafter.

Round: Other Interview
Experience: Round2: Interview Round. Just 1 interview- it was mixed tech and HR questions

General Tips: My interviewer very explicitly mentioned the package is said lower than it actually is. LnT has crazy benefits like accommodation for 100 per month (namesake money. Its practically free), food, transportation and much more. The package is said lower because they don't want candidates come in for the money, but for a career. Also, note that LnT has a bond for 2 years. If you leave them in between you have to pay them 2lacs. Candidates that mentioned discomfort about this bond were disqualified immediately. It is apparently yet another trap to filter out people who really want to pursue LnT seriously.My interviewer also mentioned LnT being rich in culture and having an extremely smooth corporate ladder. If you stick for 2-3 years you will see two promotions and great jumps in salary.
Skill Tips: In Apti,  easy question but ridiculous time constraint, so if you don't know the answer at a glimpse simply move on, amazingly easy questions await you. I was pleasantly surprised as I am far from the core types that the team that came to recruit had 3 men who were pretty nice people. No stress interview. Highly chilled out people who honestly want to know if you are interested. Very basic questions were asked in the interview- Types of losses, lightning arrestors, a great deal about earthing, why fuses are popular when there are other emerging alternatives. Kept helping here and there to push the answers out of you and Very encouraging. A background check on what your family does, which places will you be comfortable staying in etc. It was my first interview and I was at great ease. A very generously lucky experience.
College Name: NIT SURATHKAL

Round: Test
Experience: Aptitude test consists of a mix of all kinds of basis aptitude questions. English test consists of 57 questions containing a healthy mix of short comprehension, sentence formation, error in tenses, antonyms , synonyms etc to be answered in 20 min.
Tips: For aptitude practice R S Aggarwal thoroughly. since in aptitude you have to answer 1 question every min so speed and precision is the key and that requires a lot of practice.  Wile practicing aptitude questions it is always helpful if you take help of a stop watch so that you can have a track of time you are consuming in solving a particular type of question and hence you can optimize on that for eg: you may require less time in solving questions related to a some topic and more time on other. Thus you will have an idea as to questions from which topic is to be attempted first and which has to be left for last. Your target should be to have more than 35 questions correct at all cost then you have a good chance of getting selected.
For English i feel a regular reading of newspaper, novels and magazines is enough provided you are regular in that.
Duration: 60 minutes
Total Questions: 60

Round: Technical Interview
Experience: Really grilling interview considering the no of questions asked but at the same time  it was a good experience. They ask question from your area of interest eg; Building science , Structural design and analysis, Geotec, water resources and transportation.
Tips: You should be very good in atleast 3 of the above subjects. Read some technical journals as well helps if you quote some research related to the topic.Give a good brief but complete answer and if u don't know say that.If you are unable to remember answer for a particular question you can ask for some time to think n that will be givenThe interviewer will at times add a practical angle to a question n if you hit a six here you have good chance of  success. Remember you have to be well prepared to answer these question so be well prepared. With Lord Sai's grace may u succeed.
