Round: Resume Shortlist
Experience: Mostly Solid Mechanics profiles were shortlisted.
Tips: Actually, they were looking for experienced people, who already have a job experience of a year or two. Though they asked for a written test initially but later on, them shortlisted the candidates based on. They were keen to take students who had some kind of job experience (for MTech candidates) or internship.

Round: HR Interview
Experience: First I introduced about myself, my family background, my hobbies and my qualities. I told them that I like to travel a lot and gave an example as when I was in Europe I travelled some 6-7 countries even I had to spend my own money. Since they were first time in the campus so they didn’t know about foreign internships. They were fascinated by the fact that I have international exposure. They asked about my purpose of being in Europe. I told them about internship, they liked it and asked questions related to that as of who paid for you and the university.
Tips: It helps if you asked some questions to them during presentation or interview, they value and remember it. I asked a question during presentation and about the job location during interview. When I asked them this question in interview then they told me that you were the guy who asked one question during presentation.
Finally they asked me if I would be comfortable in Chennai. I replied them positively this time.

Round: Technical Interview
Experience: Thesis: They wanted to know how my work and thesis could be of their use. It was related to polymer and I told them it will be of help in seat chamber design. You should be able to convince them that whatever you are doing is of use to them. I was working in Abacus. They were impressed with this and asked if I am asked to work on Ansys, Fluent, will I be able to do so. I gave them a positive reply.
Project: They were highly impressed with one of my projects on “Adamas” which I did in my 2nd year. This was the thing which they were looking for. They asked some technical questions as how did you simulate the track and where did you apply force. I answered their questions with confidence and they were impressed. You may like to give priorities to your projects based on company profile and requirement. So by this time they were very impressed by me and I was kind of getting the feeling that they will hire me.

General Tips: Do ask questions to them during interview or presentation in a different fashion, may be related to your job profile or anything which is bothering you.
Skill Tips: Organize mock GD's in wings.
Prepare some common HR questions like “Tell me about yourself”, strengths and weakness, your hobbies and prepare this question in written.

Experience: Online test - elementary questions

Round: Other Interview
Experience: Personal Interview- based on your areas of interest (make sure you know that area which you choose to be your favourite)

General Tips: The PI was tricky he started off from the very basic stuff and started going into topics I was uncomfortable with but then again I was lucky so they did not go to topics which I actually did not know. Better be ready for the worst, if you prepare well you are definitely guaranteed a job.
Skill Tips: Go through a wide variety of topics because most of the companies assess you mostly on the GD. By being prepared you will be able to deal with it easily. Try to ace the subjects you are good at. They don't want a Jack of all trades but a master of one.
