“Consistency looks like nothing is happening, until everything changes.”

Good evening sir, My interview experience at BEL Ghaziabad. (4 members and one of them is HR sitting on the side remaining 3 panel members were sitting in front) They asked me to introduce myself, during introduction I told them that I have joined Phd at iisc banglore in materials engineering so they asked why do you want to leave that good of a opportunity. I answered for financial stability then they asked about family background. Then the started asking from my Mtech subjects and project. After that they asked about btech project in detail. Then they asked about the favorite subjects I told them HT, SOM, MD, Material Science. 1. What is idler? 2. How would you increase the torque from one place to another? 3. Stress- strain curve 4. Is there any thing that we design for plastic deformation? 5. Reaction on a pulley? Overall good experience, answered most of the questions, chairman said Good when I was leaving.

Importance of GATE XE Regarding IIT's if your XE rank is good then you can apply in 1)IIT MADRAS, Bombay - Mechanical, Aerospace, Applied Mechanics 2)IIT Delhi - Applied Mechanics 3)IISC -Aerospace From placement perspective Opportunity for Manufacturing branch in core sector is limited And don't join IIT in any interdisciplinary branch since the companies for those branches are limited If your GATE ME rank is good and if your primary aim is placement choose IIT Bombay Over IISC Banglore MS placement in IIT Madras is very good so apply for MS program also (in Design and Thermal only) For IIT/IISC interviews keep the fundamentals very clear Regarding Rank : In my time I had a XE rank of 35 still I couldn't get IIT Bombay Thermal NIT Trichy, Karnataka and Warangal have good placement stats for core branches If you are from Mechanical Background join Mechanical, Applied Mechanics and Aerospace branch only (either MS or MTech)

I have given interviews of ESE ,IISc along with ONGC , IOCL , BPCL (college and gate) , EIL ,BARC , ISRO (college and written) and have been selected in all except my first one ;) So lets start with a failure First interview : Isro where I panicked in the beginning and needless to say the result . I had prepared for interview by memorizing the introductions and favorite topic and project. Then what went wrong ?? I could not deliver properly and my confidence got a hit and I panicked. Lesson learnt : Be calm , composed and when a question is thrown at you ,never reply instantly . Think for some 4–5 seconds (the wait time should not become uneasy ) ,frame an answer start or think of concepts to be told and then start the answer . If you don't know , then also this thing shows that you tried to give attempt . If no answer comes in your mind , you can say sorry sir , I don't know about this but will learn about it (In future learn it as it will help you in other interviews ). This helped me as my answers were more organized and framed as compared to instant answers. Then never bluff much or if want to say something that you are not confident , " sorry sir , I don't know the exact answer but I can guess if you allow ." If yes tell the explanation and its reasoning. Then comes the part , " Be Yourself " or try to " Be Ideal " . So what makes you ideal for the Company ?? A company wants a dedicated but practical and thinking person . So whatever you say , there should be layers or at least one layer of reasoning to it . Timeline of a Interview • Introduction : You start with a series of points to start the discussion and make yourself comfortable. A brief intro covers cllg , birthplace, degree branch , college city , family .These will pose some questions . You have to think what can be asked from these keywords and if possible google them like meaning of your name . • Prepare Company specific points. The important subject for that company like Oil psus - chairman , its revenue , some award , welfare schmes , technical working and the subjects knowledge important for them are to be covered specifically like fluid machinery , ic engines . Why do you want to join a company ? What will you offer to company or Why should we hire you ? Some recent news of the company and dont forget to watch the company video on YouTube and its website which itself will give you answers for above questions. • Also learn the Important Subjects and their application and how it is useful in daily life . Technical subjects ( first priority to be given to subjects which are important for their applications , and then all basic laws and definitions of all subjects ) . If the interviewer asks you 2–3 questions from the subject you are uncomfortable ,you can tell " Sorry sir , I have not prepared this subject well . But I have prepared these ….subjects well . " Because instead of wasting time of your interview for questions you dont know , you should use the time for questions you know . Example - An interview with - 10 question ( unanswered or wrong) with 15 questions answered well does not seem appealing compared with an interview with 4 questions ( unanswered including an apology) and 18 questions answered . • Theory of your Projects / Training , problems faced and how you overcame them by using your strengths and their application in Present or future . Always remember , the interviewer mostly comes empty and as you give answers he through reasoning digs out new questions which becomes difficult for us . So you should know what you know well and then after thinking give answers ( layers of reasoning ) . That's why mock interviews are important as you may always look from a same angle but others may help you in looking other important points. • Write some Strengths to tell and incidents to support them . Also prepare for weakness ( makes you human :D ) and tell a strategy like how you are tackling it . • Make some hobbies to tell or prepare some layers of questions to tell about hobbies and why these hobbies help you.
