College Name: IIT BOMBAY

Interview Preparation Tips

Round: Case Study Interview
Experience: No one would be eliminated in this round. They will provide you ample time - around 40-50 minutes to write a response on a case study. The topic would be new and unheard of, but you can think and write peacefully in that amount of time.
Tips: Make sure you highlight the points made and do remember them for the Group Discussion phase.

Round: Group Discussion
Experience: One-third of the guys will get selected for the interviews from each group of 8-10 guys. The topic of the GD would be same as the case study. Now, its time for you to recall the points you made during the writing section. The GD will last for around 15-20 minutes.
Tips: Good communication skills, relaxed but expressive tone. Don’t be silent and try to speak up whenever you get a chance. Try to bring new air into the discussion and think from all the different perspectives. You should speak at least 2-3 times, even if you just say 1-2 sentences each time. That will do. They also individually ask each person to speak, specifically those who could not speak, but you had better not be that guy or girl. There is no need to fight for summarizing the GD. Try to show that you are involved throughout the GD.

Round: HR Interview
Experience: There will be two guys, one from technical and the other HR. They both ask questions at the same time and they discuss among each other as well. They mostly try to detect any fraud or fake thing you did in your project or intern. All the technical questions come from your CV. So, your fate is kind of in your hands only.
Tips: Prepare hard for Projects, Internships etc. Don’t panic. They try to see how you react in a pressure situation and actually behave as if you are not impressing them. Just be calm and keep on speaking. If there is something you want to say and they interrupt you, its better you ask them to give you a chance to explain it in details. Do have a few questions in mind to ask them about your job profile and Wipro. That is the final nail in the coffin.

Skill Tips: A minimum CGPA of 8.0 was mentioned and later they relaxed it to 7.9. They were giving quite some importance to the Internships and Projects undertaken and were trying to judge if you actually did something new and genuine. They were dwelling deep into it. As I said, prepare well for them just like you prepare for BTech Project Viva. They do ask a lot of questions.HR questions should be prepared thoroughly. A background check of Wipro and IT sector companies is a must. Prepare well for group discussions. Try to get background information about the IT sector and the company. Prepare your CV thoroughly.

Interview Preparation Tips

Round: Technical Interview
Experience: Technical Round:

When my turn came in I walked into the room and Found two people sitting over there. 
Wishing them Good Afternoon i was asked to take my seat and I sat comfortably. This is noted very carefully. I had a eye to eye contact with both of them. I handed over them my certificates for them to go through.

Then my interview started (I gave my resume to him)

Interviewer: Kiran Paul Kani… right..
Me: Yes, its kiran paul kanikaram

Interviewer: Ok Kiran I am dennis voice Trainer at HCL Tech. It seems from the resume that you are working for India Air Force and why do you want to change the Job

Me: Bracing up a little I said I am working with Indian Air Force and because of Family reason I am about to resign the Job and also since I have completed MCA I just wanted to pursue a Technical Job.

Interviewer: Can you give me some more details as to why you want to resign a Government job and join a private one?

Me: Yes, I would. Since I am having a family to look after and with the present job I am unable to keep my family with me and also since my job requires me to be available 24/7, 365 days this was not a problem when I did not have these responsibilities but now it has become compulsion for me to look after and for me I think what’s the use of earning the money and not enjoying them with family.

Interviewer: Ok tell me about yourself?

Me: I told about my schooling and the place I hail from and the job I was doing in brief.

Interviewer: Oh great you could do your Graduation and Post graduation while doing a job and don’t you feel that was difficult while serving the IAF?

Me: Yes, It was difficult but I just wanted to come up in life and I already knew the price I am going to pay and it had taken a lot of hard work but finally I could complete.

Interviewer: Here is a passage and can you read it for me.

Me: I understood why he was asking so coolly I took time and read it comfortably.

(Now the interviewer showed me his laptop and told me to hear a conversation. I took the head set and listened the conversation)

Interviewer: What was the person trying to tell?
Me: I told him that the person was telling that he wanted a technical issue to be resolved pertaining to his Laptop.

Interviewer: What is the solution you have for him?

Me: I told him the procedure of how to solve his issue.

Interviewer: He smiled at me and said I would like to speak with my friend who wants to ask you about information. He works as a SME (subject Man Expert) and he picked up his cell and connected to that person and handed over me the phone and walked out of the room.

Interviewer: Hello Kiran I am Sam

Me: Hello sam

Interviewer: I work as a SME and hope Dennis told about me

Me: yes

Interviewer: Can you tell me how does a browser work?
Me: I said do you want me to explain the functionality of the browser.
Interviewer: yes
Me: I gave him the information of what he wanted.
Interviewer: can you tell me some thing about cookie and what it does?
Me: I told him the definition of cookie and the role it plays in the Brower functionality
Interviewer: Ok what will you do to change the settings of the browser?
Me: I explained him the process.
Interviewer: Tell me something about registry in windows?
Me: I told about the registry and told him that when ever an application is installed then it is this place that the registry keys are saved and based on this when ever we run the application it will fetch information from here and runs the application.
Interviewer: What happens when these registry keys are deleted or corrupted and how can you delete the registry keys?
Me: If the registry keys are deleted or corrupted then the application may not run or if it runs also it will create problems some  where else and to delete the registry keys we need type in Regedit command in the run window and press enter andthen from the registry window search for the keys to delete and selecting them we need to press delete key .Interviewer: Do you know Computer networks?
Me: Not fully but I have a fair idea 
Interviewer: Ok No issues. Thanks a lot.
Me: thanks a lot and gave back the cell to Dennis.
Interviewer: How was the interaction?
Me: It was good
(Dennis got a call and he typed in some thing in his laptop. I knew it was from sam)
Interviewer: Ok kiran please wait out side will get back to you in a few min.
Me: I said yes and walked out of the room and was little anxious but the people who were waiting outside wanted to inquire why it has taken a lot of time.
After some time Dennis along with Sam came up to the lounge area and called me and spoke to me saying that they were satisfied with my interview and told that they were checking my accent and my technical knowledge and told me that I was selected for this round and need to attend a written technical test and also if I clear there will be a HR round and if cleared will get the appointment letter. Then they handed over a sealed envelop and told me to give to the HR
I was a bit relaxed now and was waiting to go for the next round people around me congratulated. After few min a interview board member accompanied us in the Cab to another facility a few hundred meter away from this facility.
When we came to this facility we were given tags to enter the facility and Pooja came and called me into the cabin.

Round: HR Interview
Experience: HR Round
HR: Good afternoon Kiran and took the packet
Me: I said good Afternoon
HR: Now there will be a written test and that too MCQ type go through the question paper and answer them and you have 30 minutes.
Me: I took the paper and sat in the place assigned and went through the paper and answered them and after the time is up I handed over the answer sheet
HR: Please sit in the waiting room I will be back in few min.Me: I said Ok and waited in the waiting room.
After some time the HR came.
HR: Congrats you cleared the written test 
Me: Thanks 
HR: So you are a defense person and where are you working?
Me: Yes, I am working in Air Force Station Delhi.
HR: So you want to join a pvt organization from a govt organization, don’t you feel that you are loosing security of job?Me: Yes, I want to join a corporate sector since it was a dream for me and I think the circumstance have paved the way for me since I am also not interested to be in Air Force because I am away from my family and also this posting makes it very difficult for me to be with my family and it will be for five years. Secondly I don’t feel any that I am loosing Job security since any how I have to retire after 20 years of service and I have finished 12 years and I cannot justify to my duty if I am not interested. So owing to moral grounds I want to join a pvt organization.
HR: So you think that your family comes first than your job?
Me: It depends on how a person thinks but for me both are important because without money I cannot survive and without a job I cannot earn so I balance both Job and Family and prioritize them.
HR: What is the remuneration you are expecting from us?
ME: I am expecting a good remuneration from you but I would be happy if I am paid as per your organizations standards so that I might not feel that I am left out in comparison with my colleagues. 
HR: Are you willing to work in any shift?
Me: That would not be a problem for me because I have been doing duties in Air Force on the call and 24/7. So I do not have any problems
HR: Ok you may go..Me: I thanked her and walked out of the room.
After an hour the HR came and gave me all the details and told that I got Selected!!!
This gave me the confidence that I can do well in the future.
Though I did not join the Job it was a very good experience for me and it helped me in an interview which I attended in Bangalore in an IT company and which I have joined as a Quality Assurance Lead.

Interview Preparation Tips

Round: Test
Experience: There was an apititude test basically in line with CAT pattern. It was conducted online for about 45 min duration. The questions were rather simple but each question was time bound (around 45 sec or so).
Tips: As such I did not have any structured study plan. I did refresh some of my basics in mechanics and analysis. I was more inclined to get a job in aerospace division. Read as per your interest.
Duration: 45 minutes

Round: Group Discussion
Experience: Initially, we are seated randomly in a circular manner and each one was given two minutes to describe the topic. It was followed by an tense debate where participants converged and diverged on different sets of issue. They were particularly looking for interpersonal skills and out of the box thinking.

Round: Interview
Experience: The interview was purely management type.More questions were thrown at team building, bio-data, why this company? , project, what you Can contribute for the firm?, where you see yourself in next 5 -10 years, ambitions, some amount of optimization tools and techniques, concluding remarks....Interpersonal skills and clarity in answering where mainly
IBM was a more relaxed interview, which basically dealt with management and interpersonal skills. Questions like “if one of our team mate is very stubborn, lazy, adamant, how will you tackle the situation” were asked.
Tips: College (B Tech) curricular activities, NTSC certificate, Math Olympiad certificate, all India quiz competition awards were noted and appreciated. That really was a booster. That helps in implanting an idea that you are not just blah blah blah.

Skill Tips: Be very sure about your mechanics, analysis and design. These three are the fundamentals.
I haven prepared for placements exclusively. Here were combined discussions. However, it really helps if you can revise and make your fundamentals were clear. The basic understanding should be there. An hour every day for two months will do the trick.
Be really choosy of the company you want to be in. Learn a lot more of the company and get an idea of what they are actually looking for. But still don’t freeze your mind to those realms alone.. Be open minded and cheerful. The first few questions will set the mood of the interview. If you are bale to crack that, then things will be really smooth. Really concentrate on your fundamentals, especially analysis and design.
