Interview Preparation Tips
Round: Case Study Interview Experience: Its not an elimination round, you can go with your informal clothes on. Tips: Any one who has prepared for day 1 and day 2 companies will get through this round. Just read news papers and learn to shoot graphs here and there even if it has got absolutely no facts and definitely practice to write a lot. Be prepared with both for and against the topic coz the interviewer keeps changing the topic in between the GD.The topic was same as that of the case study Donât write bullet-ed points, this makes your cases look small. Try applying your vocabulary spectrum. Try to give exhibits even if you donât know any facts.
Round: Group Discussion Experience: 12 students on the table, one interviewer. Tips: Play old school .But donât wait for your chance, just break into it, but with a gentlemanly attitude. Try giving examples. Throw arbitrary facts to prove your points, if you donât remember the real figures.
Round: HR Interview Experience: Two interviewee were present. Tips: Donât start with your brilliancein your core subject. Tell them you hate your department. Convince them that you wonât ditch them for a Ph.D or an MBA. Tell them you have a friend at Wipro who keeps giving you intel about how great the company is. Look confident and if at times you can be funny, they will appreciate it!!
Skill Tips: 8 and above CGPA is required. Later it was lowered to 7.9, mine was 7.98. They mainly ask HR questions, so being involved in Extra-academic activities gives you more that you can talk of. I had an eye for coding in C++. Helped me on this, but my extra-acads list was enough. Coding was just a bonus. If they are non core its better. But my both the internships were core based. You just have to convince them why you are dropping from core. College Name: IIT KHARAGPUR

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 âif one of our team mate is very stubborn, lazy, adamant, how will you tackle the situationâ were asked.
