3 Interview Rounds

Interview Preparation Tips

Round: Group Discussion
Experience: The HR gave us a choice to select for GD. It was a straight forward round and they expected us to discuss the pros and cons and asked us to discuss beyond the geographical boundaries of India. Apart from this what I feel is they were looking how socially aware we were. They did not emphasize on the technical data during GD.
Tips: Use the current scenario of a particular topic and expand it to other countries. Leading the discussion and helping others to put their point forward always helps. Good eye contact and giving a nice and in depth explanation of the topic will help.
It doesn't matter if u start or summarize the GD. What matters is your presence should be felt by the group and the HR....!

Round: Other Interview
Experience: It was kind of tech + HR round which was mainly based on my experience during last summer Internship at Reliance. They asked in depth calculations and derivations of data and equations,my experimental techniques during Internships. They asked the mistakes i did during intern and gave a lot of suggestions on that.
They asked me a lot about my PORs in the campus and asked me how it helped me to be what i am..!
No typical question like strengths and weakness.
And they gave me a problem statement asking role of engineer in a process of tomato ketchup production right from procurement to sales..
The interview lasted for more than an hour and the interviewers were friendly. On the scale of 1 to 10..i will rate technical toughness to be 8.5 and HR to be 7..
Tips: Be truthful about ur CGPA..dun fake abouy ur internship
Jusyify and show them your approach towards every problem. They don't expect correct answer but a correct approach...!

Skills: Technical Questions, Leadership Skills, Internship Experience, Able To Speak With Perception
Duration: 2
College Name: IIT Madras
