Interview Questionnaire 

2 Questions

  • Q1. Thermodynamics and heat transfer.
  • Q2. IC engines

Interview Preparation Tips

Round: Test
Experience: First Round was Test- Test 1 was aptitude test had English, basic math and logical reasoning. Test 2 was technical. It had questions from all areas of Mechanical. Since TCE is mainly involved in power engineering expect a lot of questions on Thermodynamics Heat transfer Fluid mechanics and Strength of Materials.

Round: Technical Interview
Experience: The second round was a technical round: Predominantly easy questions from thermodynamics and heat transfer. Some very basic questions on IC engines and their classifications as well as distinguishing features. The technical round tests basics and a brief revision is more than enough to know the answers.

Round: HR Interview
Experience: Third round is HR. Standard generic questions such as why do u want to join our company? and about comfort levels on working in different places in India etc. HR round is for formality sake. They pretty much decide in the tech round whether you are going to be recruited or not.

General Tips: It was Challenging. It took me a month or two to get past aptitude test because I was slow with mental calculations and had a a block against clearing apti test with negative markings and I messed up a few interviews after that also. But after a while you get used to the whole process.
Skill Tips: Keep Calm. Placement procedures are a test of patience and composure. Don't let the anxiety of wanting a job cloud your judgement or hamper your performance. Take mock interviews if given by your seniors. Refer GATE tutors for revising technical concepts.
