Interview Preparation Tips

Round: Resume Shortlist
Experience: The company shortlisted 4 candidates and preference was given to candidates with high CPI.
Tips: Start preparing your resume in advance because it is an iterative process and it gets better with every change. Prepare 2 resume for core and non-core profiles, with the former focusing on your project relevant to companies' profile,and the latter for your POR's and extra curricular.

Round: Other Interview
Experience: The next round was an interview on Skype. The focus was on summer internships, projects, etc.
Tips: Be thorough with your resume, and also be prepared to quote your grades in subjects like MOS, Structural analysis, etc.

General Tips: To prepare for GD's, it is important to be aware of everyday happenings. Inculcate the habit of reading newspapers regularly.
If you are targeting core companies, a good CPI is important (around 8-8.5 is good but more CPI will be at advantage). For companies like Thornton Thomasetti projects also matter a lot.
When it comes to core companies, you need to be very patient. Companies like Thornton Thomasetti, VMS, DAR group, L&T etc offer low package initially to train you. So be patient, for in later stages you could get to work on the world's tallest building or the longest bridge!

Question:
If 15% of a number is 45, what is 30% of that number?

Solution:

1. Find the number:
If 15% of a number is 45, then



\text{Number} = \frac{45}{0.15} = 300.

2. Calculate 30% of the number:
Now, 30% of 300 is



0.30 \times 300 = 90.

Answer:
30% of the number is 90.


---

Additional Example (Simple Interest):

Question:
A bank offers a simple interest rate of 5% per annum on a deposit of Rs.20,000. What will be the interest earned in 3 years?

Solution:

1. Use the simple interest formula:



\text{Simple Interest} = \frac{P \times R \times T}{100}

= Principal amount = Rs.20,000

= Rate of interest = 5%

= Time = 3 years


2. Calculate the interest:



\text{Interest} = \frac{20000 \times 5 \times 3}{100} = 3000.

Answer:
The interest earned in 3 years is Rs. 3000.

Round 2 - Coding Test 

1. Quantitative Aptitude

Q: A sum of ₹10,000 is invested at 10% per annum simple interest. What is the interest after 3 years?
A: Interest = (P × R × T) / 100 = (10,000 × 10 × 3) / 100 = ₹3,000

2. Reasoning Ability

Q: If A is the father of B, but B is not the son of A, what is B’s relation to A?

A bank offers a simple interest rate of 6% per annum. If a customer deposits Rs. 25,000 for 4 years, what is the total simple interest earned over that period?

Solution:

1. Identify the formula for Simple Interest (SI):



\text{SI} = \frac{P \times R \times T}{100}

is the principal (Rs. 25,000)

is the rate of interest (6%)

is the time period (4 years)


2. Substitute the values into the formula:



\text{SI} = \frac{25000 \times 6 \times 4}{100}

3. Calculate the interest:



\text{SI} = \frac{25000 \times 24}{100} = \frac{600000}{100} = 6000.

Answer:
The total simple interest earned over 4 years is Rs. 6,000.

Additional Example (Logical Reasoning):

Question:
In a sequence of numbers representing daily bank transactions, the amounts follow an arithmetic progression: 105, 115, 125, ... What will be the 8th transaction amount?

Solution:

1. Identify the first term and common difference:

Common difference,



2. Use the formula for the nth term of an arithmetic progression:



a_n = a_1 + (n - 1)d

3. Substitute :



a_8 = 105 + (8 - 1) \times 10 = 105 + 70 = 175.

Answer:
The 8th transaction amount is 175.

Interview Preparation Tips

Interview preparation tips for other job seekers - I always suggest staying away from these companies commonly referred to as WITCH (Wipro, Infosys, TCS, Cognizant, HCL). You will rarely encounter good interviewers there unless there is an extreme necessity. Interview was judging me on the basis of syntex by seeing in his phone. How can everyone write each and everything on copy. For the low level design first time in my 6 years carrier someone asked to design without using kafka or any other library like spring boot to achieve that add in reminder list problem 😂. At first it was my bad after holding a offer of almost 27 lakh I somehow agreed for giving interview. Second thing I also know that after Even clearing they cannot afford 30LPA which I asked. I just went there because from last 6.5 year I have never attended any walking or face to face interview so was curious for it. Currently also working with somewhat premium product development company only. My experience was very bad. May be it can get vary person to person.
