Has it ever occurred to any Techie, wrote a piece of code... went for production ! (*cool dude/girl feels*) After few months looking back at the same piece of code, and now your life and the code both don't make any sense. Meanwhile a thought in the background in your head : “MBA hi kar lena chahiye bhai, yeh ab aur mujhse nahi ho payega" ¯\_ಠ_ಠ_/¯ ?

Anyone who left new iims last year for CAT20?

Iss baar pata chal jaayega IIMA interview me minimum kitne number deta hai😂 Also, please refrain from talking about reservations. IIMA interview 998 99.99 IITK NC OBC Mechanical Fresher 16.03.2021 VCnow, CP, Delhi AWT : Pursuing further studies abroad immediately after graduation or after working and financing yourself. Interview: No Acads No GK P1, P2 P1: Where are you from? Answered and then had a bit of discussion about college re-opening. P1: Asked me if I sat for placement and which companies? Answered that I sat for all roles associated with business domain as a backup if I didn't get into a B-school so that the workex would be useful. P1: Asked me the company profile and what it does? Answered that I was recruited as an associate consultant at praxis which is a management consulting firm. P1 : Asked me the VP of the company, their clients and the offices Couldn't answer but told that they majorly dealt in financial services and about the 3 offices in India. P1: You know nothing about business and finance, I don't get why the companies hire people like you. ( I smiled ) Then asked if and how I follow news and if I had any specific interests such as politics, economy, sports. Answered that I read news on online platforms and I am slightly inclined towards sports. P1 : which sports? Cricket and chess P1 : Asked me names of various deliveries wrt to the length of the ball. Answered Fulltoss, Yorker, full length, good length and short length. P1 seemed happy and said good. Handed over to P2. P2 : Have you heard of gender wage gap. Explained. P2: Asked why it existed. Told it was going on from a long time and fewer job opportunities for women meant they agreed to work at lower wages. P2 : Asked is there even data to back that the gap exists Answered that there must be statistical data on wages for similar positions otherwise it would not be discussed so extensively. P2: Asked why reservation for girls was introduced in IITs Answered on the lines of a very low number of girls getting great ranks in JEE which reflected the lack of means and opportunities for them. P2 : Is it good? Answered that since they are additional seats, should be a positive in helping girls get good education P2 : If the seats weren't additional then? Answered that then it would be taking away opportunities from deserving people and we need to give more opportunities but not at the sake of deserving candidates. Had a bit of discussion where he said I was contradicting myself tried to explain wasn't convinced. P2: Since you have an interest in consulting (never said anything remotely like this), let's do a few cases. Car company manufacturers 4 cars and they have different sales volumes and mileage, what would be the average mileage of the company. Answered weighted average. P2: wrong answer Silence for 30 seconds P2: Said let's take White hat junior as a consultant would you recommend banning the company. Answered that they targeted 4/5/6 year olds who weren't in the position to make choices and so they were targetted parents and a ban wasn't needed but need to regulate the claims made by them. P2 : I am disappointed, I expected you to do a study. Tried defending that I felt that a study on such young children wasn't feasible. Wasn't convinced again. P1: Asked me if I travel frequently. Answered that I don't travel frequently but had recently visited Rajasthan. P1: How would you compare 2 cities like Jaipur and Udaipur Clarified if he was asking as a tourist or resident he said tourist. Answered on the lines of connectivity to the cities, number of places to visit, ease and cost of transportation and other expenses. P1: (not convinced at all) Asked if parameters would change if I was comparing Jaipur and Ajmer. Answered that no I would still use the same parameters. P1: We are done, nice talking to you. Please take a toffee. Exchanged pleasantries and ran for my life. Duration 25 minutes And the anxious wait for the results starts 😢...

I heard from some telegram group that colleges offer bulk discount on laptop purchase...does this happen at non IIMs like SJMSOM & DMS also?
