UM Autocomp Engineer Interview Questions and Answers

Interview preparation tips for other job seekers - be confident

Round: Technical Interview
Experience: The first interview involved a case on acquiring land for a B-School. The case was mainly qualitative and the HR questions were also straightforward. Giving a thought to goals and aspirations helped

Round: Case Study Interview
Experience: The second interviewer was an IIT Delhi alumnus and asked me a case on whether a telecom company should go for exploring the 3G license option. He provided me with information as and when I asked for it. Later during the interview, I asked him about his experience with McKinsey


Round: Case Study Interview
Experience: My third interview was with a partner. Again, standard PI questions: something about yourself, why consulting, what if not McKinsey, important attributes of a good leader, why should we hire you etc. The case was on the design on entry and exit gates for Delhi Metro.

Round: Technical Interview
Experience: My final interview was again with a partner and there was no HR part. It started with a case, and then there was nothing else to discuss. Anything and everything that could possibly go wrong did. I did badly in the case and towards the end made errors with simple calculations as well. It is important to think on your feet even if you are not able to make much headway with the case. This case had sealed my fate and by the time they declared the results, I had made my plans as to what will I do next.
