This time ...i had my interview at hotel monarch luxor,bangalore on feb. 28th at 8.30 am ..
we were asked to wait in the waiting hall till 8.45 or so...
same thing again...divided into groups of 10...
GD topic :- local govts are more corrupt or central government...
2 mins were given to think and 10 mins for discussion...
it was a complete fish market...literally 10 ppl were speaking at a time....bcoz of very less time allotted everyone was trying to play safe...spoke 3-4 times...excluding 5-6 serious attempts to get in again and again :)
interview process started....
called in sequentially as per our seating arrangement in GD....
came to know from one person that my panel was asking all acads questions and he was asked to draw not gate from nand gate , nand from nor etc etc....he was from ECE bckground...
so i started to recollect all those gates (i am also from ECE bckground...)
i was called by one of the professor...
As usual,there were 3 professors...but the strange part was that two persons were seating in their places but the third prof. was sitting at the corner of the room...holding a paper and watching me....::)

p1:does maths have any practical applications...tell me where can it be applied???

It is helpful for us sir :) I have a question here.. can u tell me are there any candidates who didn't remember their academics well but got the chances.. because there may be a chance that we cant remember all our basics when the asked (may be because of some internal tension etc)
ReplyDeletePlease do not call me sir...i might be younger than you...a student(read 1989 dob) doing his mba....:)
ReplyDeletei must say there were many...but then you should try to connect it with something which you know...the questions are asked only to test whether you will get totally blank when bombarded with questions or not?
Unless you get shocked completely, you can manage the interview ...hope i have answered you....
btw...please post your comments or queries on my new blog http://www.knowledge-focalpoint.blogspot.com/ . This is because i rarely visit this blog of mine.
My new blog has all my gdpi experiences along with some general analysis on some topics...
