What was the difficulty level of the interview? (1- very easy, 10-very difficult)
NA
Tell us about the written/online test. (Aptitude, Coding, Test Platform, etc)
Since, my job was going to be that of a researcher. Therefore n they didn’t take any type of written examination rather they gave me an assignment to complete.
What were the key factors of your selection?
I think.. passion is everything. Like i always said ‘An engineer can be anything’. I was doing CSE but i was not really bright in coding area. And it’s neither compulsory that if you are doing engineering then you have to go in technical domain. There are many jobs in non-technical areas also. I always enjoyed writing and started writing my own blogs when i was in my high school. Sticking to my passion of writing and keeping confidence on myself, i grabbed a job in non-texh domain.
What are the things students should focus on, in order of priority?
I think they should explore themselves utterly. They should know what they like, what they want to do and in which they can give their utter efforts without taking that very thing as burden on you
What would you like to advise juniors for cracking the HR round of this company?
They took my interview after my assignment. Basically, they just try to know you better in your HR round. Stay relaxed and handle it confidently.
Any advice to juniors for the technical skills they should develop?
Improve your coding if you wants to land in a technical job but even if you are not sound at coding and programming. No need to worry, you just need to explore yourself a little more.
According to you, what role do extracurricular activities as well as participation in societies play?
They helped in boasting my confidence and present myself bettet in front of interviewer.
