note-i had lost all my original docs-10,12 n grad mksheets along wth extra currics ceificates+tiss call letters..etc evrythng..on the way 2 tiss in train itself..but tiss ppl along wth a senior at tiss were very supportive-made me appear 4 gd despite all that

now-first of all,my name was not there in the list where we have to sign at reporting gate-they sed my roll no is wrong...how stupid..i never coined my own roll no-tiss ne jo dia tha wahi tha..lolz!!

then they cheked my result on their website-did not believe they had given me a call-checked it in front of me and when they wer satisfied,they said-ok-u r eligible...

till then my presentation abt hr was over-i was busy in these formalities thats y-a day b4 i had asked administrative deptt about my eligibility and they had no problems regarding the same!!!

my gd started at around 11 am-till then we all were asked 2 wait in room no 5-where tiss hr seniors were helping us out..met many pgites n orkutians there..

b4 entering the gd hall i was askd a very strange q-prove that u r manishree gupta-again told him my long story,about sir in the admin deptt who asked me 2 sit 4 the gdpi w/o worying..then i showed him my college id card-then he admitted me inside!!

once inside there were tables with chairs attached.we had 2 lift the attached table n then sit-and my roll no was placed on that table..if that is called a table....i lifted that table and my roll no along with the block wich was carrying it fell down on the floor!!and my panelists laughed!!i knew my marx wer deducted straitaway...

there wer 2 topiks we wer askd 2 select 1 acc 2 our preference..
topiks wer
is india a soft nation?
or
1 billion indians,1 bronze medal-what is the problem that ails indian sport??

there wer 2 panelists-both females-i forgot 2 mention..

our grp chose 2nd topik w/o hesitation-everybody was gung ho abt it..

i startd the gd...i dnt no wot hpnd 2 me..i hv nvr startd a gd in my life n there i startd the gd..all thanks 2 a ph call 4 days bak..now that person nose whose!!

thereaftr we had a very gud discussion-there wer many people in my grp who wer very intelligent n analytical i must say-mostly they wer delhiites...we had a very gud gd-the best gd of my life-nobody shouted or even tried 2 make it a fish mkt..though my inputs decreased progressively as wot all i wantd 2 say hd already bn sed-bt no regrets-i nvr expected it 2 b dat gud-had nitemares regardin tiss gd-rumours can ruin ur life..dnt blv in them....

then came pi-had 2 wait endlessly 4 that pi-i was very hungry by that time..n sleepy too...we were tkn 2 tiss 2nd campus 4 pi-bt it ws kool

there wer 2 panelists-both males-1 jolly natured n 1 very strict-tryin 2 intimid8 me..bt i was kool..calm..evrthn i m normally not!!!

askd abt mom dad delhi dad's turnover-told 5 crores!!!itni to bilkul ni hai waise!!!
then-what made u apply 2 tiss?i mean aftr a degree as a dr,then y hr??
wot do u no abt hr??tell me all u no abt it..wl listen 2 it patiently..ye mere interview panelist ne bola-i went on 4 abt 2-3 mins flat..

then wot r labour relations??i had mentioned dat in abt hr wala q

2 more questions abt this-r u sure?yehi hai?confident?final ans??ws confident

then tell me all abt trade unions..
then their objectives
then-wenever trade unions r very powerful,cmpnys hv bn destructed..n smthn else..i told them i donno abt this...

they wer w8n 4 this frm my side-k main kahin to bolu k i dnt no-as my pi was just b4 lunch break..we 3 wer very hungry-they even mentioned this 2me!!!
they sed-thank u manishree,u may go now...
n then we met while hvin lunch!!!
i just gobbled dwn wotevr i hd in my mouth n came bak-aise hi-ate full lunch at my hotel!!!
4 further queries i wl b available on my yahoo id-or orkut 4 dat matter
bby n atb 2 u all-

edited part
they also askd me abt at wot position wl i wrk in a cmpny wen i complete my hr course..i only new abt hr manager...to dat he raised his eyebrow!!!
then i just smiled ...
my pi ws over in 10 mins only
1 more thng..they askd dat if we gv u admission n cant provide u wth hostel facility,wot wl u do??i sed no probs sir,i wl serch 4 a room on rent or wl liv as a pg near tiss..
bt this can b fatal-my senior sed u shud hv sed-hostel is my top priority..
n pgites..calls r 3600..for 60 odd seats only..n tiss last yr took only 43!!they dnt reject ppl-rejections r on a mass level-they only select a few diamonds....

hi

i had my interview for DM on 10th i was the first to go ....

they asked me alot of acads ... my subject in b.a. being english hence from literature... then they asked what u read ? becoz i had written so in my application essay... then they asked me about animal rights since i work for PFA .... overall it was a very pleasnt experience .... they never even touched on any personal issues that had been asked in the form i had been scared that they might ... but they didnt .. so people dont worry they will never touch on personal issues ... yeah they also asked DM and HR ?? what is the connection so i gave them an honest answer that i wanted dm and my parents wanted hr hence applied for both ... they just smiled ....

over all a very pleasant experience ... people the panel does not bite ... they are very very pleasant ... so pls be cool before interview ...
