Interview Preparation Tips

Round: Group Discussion
Experience: There were 10 candidates in each group and I guess there were around 5 such groups, and all are from chemical engineering department. Group discussion for the GG students were held separately. Duration of the group discussion was only 5 min and so each candidate will get a chance to speak for less than 1-2 min. During the GD I made good conclusion which was also supported by the whole group which gave an added advantage to my points. GD's with my batch mates really helped me because discussing with your friends gives you broader perspective, better understanding of the topics, get to to know your weaknesses, reduce fear and stress during the GD's.The Key is ' be confident, put relevant points and try to convince the group in a smart way'. FInally only 2 students from each group got shortlisted and around 12 students were selected for the final Technical & HR Interview.
Tips: Be updated with the recent topics and better to do some group discussions with your wing mates or batch mates. This really helped me. Do not shout in the GD, put your points in smart way and make a good conclusion... :)
Duration: 5 Min minutes

Round: Technical Interview
Experience: My Interview started with ' Tell me about yourself' and then they grilled me on my internships. I did my third year Intern in Haldia Petrochemicals Ltd. Q1. What are the different types of pumps and their parts? (Centrifugal, positive displacement pumps and their parts) Q2. Different types of valves and their application? (Like gate, globe, butterfly, Non return valves (NRV)- check valves, ball valves etc.) Q3. Calculation of pressure drop through a pipe in turbulent flow (Not hagen poiseuille equation,it is for Laminar flow)
Q4. Pinch temperature Q5. Temperature profiles for cold fluid and hot fluid in cocurrent and counter current heat exchanger. Q6. Advantages of counter current heat exchanger over co current heat exchanger. (Other than LMTD, Check DQ Kern)- Ans. Hot fluid outlet temperature can go below cold fluid inlet temperature in counter current HEx which is not possible in case of co current HEx.
Q7. JT Expansion. MY 4th year internship was in U of S, canada where I developed two processes for manufacturing of glycerol carbonate and propylene glycol using Aspen hysys. They asked me regarding mass, energy balance (utilities) involved in the process and how I applied pinch analysis for the processes.

Interview Preparation Tips

Round: Test
Experience: Written test- both aptitude and the core subjects. In Core subject 50 Questions 30 minutes. In Aptitude 30 Questions in 30 minutes. The level of aptitude would be average but the core paper dealt with a lot of basics. For electrical people, a lot of questions were from transformer and induction machine, synchronous machine, Power system, Power electronics basics, Power plant engineering, and switchgear & protection devices. Thirteen people from EEE had appeared for the test

Round: Technical Interview
Experience: They basically look for two qualities, first you have knowledge of the core subjects and second that you would stick with the company at least for some years.

Skill Tips: Try to stick to the core and basically Transformer and machines, switchgear and protection, do not go towards the other subjects of interests as they are not looking for that profile. Be calm, they might look a bit serious people, but they make you very comfortable during interview.

Interview Preparation Tips

Round: Test
Experience: The cgpa criteria was 6.0 .Around 70 people were giving the test from instrumentation background.In this round 50 questions were of quant and 50 questions were tecnical. so i prepared for some core subjects like industrial instrumentation, process dynamics, control systems, some questions were from thermodynamics.. basic questions from sensors and signal conditioning and measurements.. Quant covers the chapters of train problems,time and distance, time and work, SI , profit and loss , percentage, averages, age problems, boats and streams, log questions, Mixture problems, ratio and proportion, partnership probl, perm and comb , prob.Actually during the test they mainly focus on quant section. For preparing the results of the first round Quant section is considered more than the tecnical section . They shortlisted 21 students from instrumentation branch.After this was an interview round.
Tips: Prepare for quant and tecnical part well

He greeted me well and asked me to take a chair. He then asked me to tell about my family. I told about it. Then he started asking that why i took instrumentation and not any other branch. He then asked about my college activities.Then he started asking me tecnical instrumentation questions like if we want to measure this part which sensor we will use or what instrument we will use here. He then named some sensors and asked me the principle behind it. He also asked about my 2 months training in schneider. The interview went for 20-25 mins . After that we waited for the result. They took 5 people and offer letter was given the very next day in the morning.
