Petroserv Interview Questions and Answers

Round: Technical + HR Interview
Experience: They first asked me to tell me about myself. Then I was asked to briefly explain what I did in my internship at SAIL in summer'16.Then they asked a few technical questions on the project (Modelling of a bio refinery using Indian agrowastes for energy and environmental analysis) that I was doing in that semester under one of my professors. Then they asked me about my favourite subject to which I answered, "Heat Transfer". So they asked me some basic questions on heat exchangers and related graphs.
Then one of the HRs asked me to tell about my career objectives followed by a few other questions like my strength, why CAIRN, what I would have pursued if not engineering,which location would I prefer- Rajasthan(where there is main plant of CAIRN) or Gurgaon(where there is main office of CAIRN but no plant).
Then they asked me if I had any questions to ask to which I asked them a few internship related queries. And this way, the interview ended.

Aptitude: Basic quantitative math questions were asked. There was one simple programming question where one could code in C/Java in your local IDE and upload the code file. It was a DO or DIE question, either you get the question and proceed to the next questions of the test or the test gets stopped if the code is not successfully compiled within 5 attempts.
