Interview & Essay
Venue: Kolkata
Date : 22 March, 2014; Morning
Essay :
Topic: on Food Security Act
Brief Snapshot of the attempt:
Time given :
Rate your preparation(0-5): 3
Rate your performance(0-5): 3
PI:
Panel Members Intro: 3 jovial Members, Left-most(L) seemed like an alumni, Center Prof(C) Seemed very experienced, Rightmost prof(R): Quiet for most of duration
Questions:
First they all stood up and handshaked with me , one by one and gave their intro, but I forgot their names :/
C:So, I see you have got the best final year project award. What was it about?
-Gave funda of the objective(related to supply chain resilience)
C: Asked lots of details and scenarios and asked how my model would have been applicable.
-Answered confidently
~10min so far
R: Why the job switch?
~answered(no much growth opportunity+MBA aligned with my career goals+remote location, so no support).. not much grilling
L: What do you do in your current role as online marketing analyst? Answered
L: Asked to explain in detail: Explained with examples
C:What if we, @IIM-B wanted to show ads on our homepage, which one would be relevant type of ads?
-suggested a few. They seemed satisfied, but nothing exceptional
L: your long term career goal, as to being in a position of responsibility, having ownership in an organisation and influencing decision making process, we hear it so many times from every1, say something from heart! C & R said yes , yes.:
-I didnot have anythin specific, so just smiled and exclaimed: More Responsibility!
they put it aside, making faces like ..rehne de..
L: Do you know about EdX?
No Sir
L: Well, it is an online training program, where you can get business stuffs and ideas , sitting right at home, why waste time and money coming here. Even we refer to it at times! Plus digital age...
-Well, Sir, 1st of all, online training can't substitute the physical interaction and intermixing of ideas, development of interpersonal & leadership skills, which are so important. Maybe online program makes life convenient and maybe we can follow them side by side with class, but it can never be a substitute in my opinion. And wrt money, loans can be repaid in 4-6yrs. Money is temporary while knowledge, ideas & skills are permanent.
~15 more min so far
Then all the interviewers stood up and shook hands when I was leaving, and (L) said ki:
'You are a very great person and you will be very much successful in life'
Thank You very much Sir. It means a lot to me.

Rate your performance(0-5): 4
PI: Questions and snapshot of answers:
There were two profs and one alumni
P1:So,
Me:No Sir, I am no where related to that place!
P1: Do you know how far away it is from
Me: I am not sure Sir, I can take a guess, may be 100-120 kms. (checked later,I was wrong, it was 10 kms away!)
A: So, you are working on XML? Can you show me a sample Schema design for XSLT?
Me: did, wrote a template on the board.
P1: Tell us about a decision you have regretted making.
Me: Can I have some time to think?
P1: Sure, the whole point of this interview is to make you think.
Me: Started giving them a prepared answer. Was cut short by P2
P2: So, you went XYZ college, What was the one thing you were doing differently than when you were at home?
Me: Sir, Of the top my mind, I started doing my own laundry.
P1: Ooh, so tell me, which is better, top load or front load washing machine?
Me: Sir, washing machines work on the principle of Centrifugal force,and incase of front-load, gravity acts in favour of this force, so may be front load is better.
P1: But when you wash by hands, the movement you perform is similar to the one in top load machine?
Me: I am not sure, but may be top load is better too!
P1: Final answer?Me: Top Load 😐
P1: Tell me the names of 4 professor in IIM B.
Me: Could recall only 3.
P2: So, you like watching movies
Me: There was a 5 minute discussion on some of the recent movies I have seen! They kept saying that I was picking on the movies instead of enjoying them and I tried convincing them that movies are a very powerful medium in India and a lot can be done to make them though provoking and informative as well as entertaining. But, i felt like I did not convince them through and through.
A: If you don't mind, can you tell us your CAT score?
Me: Told.
P2: So, let's say you got accepted into A,B,C, Which one would you go to?
Me: Sir, that is a decision I can make only after I do some more research.(He kept bludgeoning me through out the rest of the interview to pick up but I stood my ground and did not budge.)
P1: So, If Chiranjeevi becomes the C.M of A.P, will it make you happy or sad?
Me: Sir, it does not matter, the elections are going to be held soon enough to make any difference.
P1: That's ok, but would it make you happy or sad?Me: It would make me happy, I guess.
A: Asked me If I knew German in German 😛
Me: Ja! (That's yes in German :P)
A: Said some thing else, could not understand (he google translated)
Me: I do not understand what you are saying.
A: But, you mentioned it in your SOP..
Me: Sorry Sir, I still don't understand it.
P1: How do you think the interview went?
Me: I think it went well.
A: Are you sure, you could not translate the German questions?
Me: Yes Sir.
P1: Let her go, why are you trying to give her nightmares.
P1: You may leave.
