4 interviews found

Interview Questionnaire 

2 Questions

  • Q1. Thermodynamics and heat transfer.
  • Q2. IC engines

Interview Preparation Tips

Round: Test
Experience: First Round was Test- Test 1 was aptitude test had English, basic math and logical reasoning. Test 2 was technical. It had questions from all areas of Mechanical. Since TCE is mainly involved in power engineering expect a lot of questions on Thermodynamics Heat transfer Fluid mechanics and Strength of Materials.

Round: Technical Interview
Experience: The second round was a technical round: Predominantly easy questions from thermodynamics and heat transfer. Some very basic questions on IC engines and their classifications as well as distinguishing features. The technical round tests basics and a brief revision is more than enough to know the answers.

Round: HR Interview
Experience: Third round is HR. Standard generic questions such as why do u want to join our company? and about comfort levels on working in different places in India etc. HR round is for formality sake. They pretty much decide in the tech round whether you are going to be recruited or not.

General Tips: It was Challenging. It took me a month or two to get past aptitude test because I was slow with mental calculations and had a a block against clearing apti test with negative markings and I messed up a few interviews after that also. But after a while you get used to the whole process.
Skill Tips: Keep Calm. Placement procedures are a test of patience and composure. Don't let the anxiety of wanting a job cloud your judgement or hamper your performance. Take mock interviews if given by your seniors. Refer GATE tutors for revising technical concepts.

General Tips: It was a Good experience! Tech questions asked were not very difficult, nor too easy, exactly how an interview should be. They were chilled out but smart people. They didn't believe in stress interview, etc. but their questions were direct and logical.
Skill Tips: Don't go for books for last minute brush up. First go through the codes, (456,800). Also, for environmental- the lab manual! Books and Shri Hari notes would be too much for last hours, but the lab manuals have all the necessary and important procedures, and also limits of various pollutants/minerals as specified by the codes. Very helpful for last minute work. Sitaram sir's notes for soil mech should be sufficient. All these done, 1st round should be a cakewalk. Also, there is no harm in saying "I don't know", (not for all the questions of course!). Don't try to give round-about or approximate answers in tech interview. That is not appreciated. They don't expect you to know everything they ask. Just be polite and say "I don't know", but mention that you'll make it a point to learn and understand those topics before you join the company. (Limit State Design for SteelStructures is a big example. We're taught Working Stress, which is now obsolete except for bridge design. Just say that you were not taught, and that you'll read it on your own before you join!)

  • Q2. What are the values of Compressive & Tensile Shear Stress on a Singly Reinforced Beam in LSM method?
  • Ans. 

    Compressive shear stress is zero while tensile shear stress is equal to the shear force divided by the cross-sectional area of the beam.

    • Compressive shear stress is zero in a singly reinforced beam according to the Limit State Method (LSM).

    • Tensile shear stress is calculated by dividing the shear force by the cross-sectional area of the beam.

    • For example, if the shear force acting on the beam is 10 kN and the cross-sectio...
