I'm sharing my WAT/PI experience of the new IIMs! I've tried to make it as structured as possible. If anything seems missing, please let me know.
Venue:
Kenilworth Hotel, Kolkata
Date/Time:
16th Feb, Morning
CAT Score:
96.34 %ile
Orientation:
16 months of job-experience, CSE graduate, general category and average academics.
Introduction:
(Skip this section if you don't want a rant. Otherwise read on and amuse yourself!)
A night before the interview I'd reached to Kolkata and retired in a cheap hotel to get a good sleep for the drill tomorrow. While I was shifting in bed trying to sleep I remembered I'd forgotten to bring my salary slips. Luckily, we have system generated PDFs that I could print the next day, but my process was to start at 8:30 tomorrow. I didn't have enough time.
To cut the story short, I got the salary slips printed by the hotel receptionist itself after running around the locality under the sun and spoiling my mood for half an hour during the break between WAT and PI. If you've forgotten to print something like me, relax and get it done from the hotel.
Coincidentally, two years ago I was appearing for New IIMs interview and I'd forgotten to print my CAT Score Card. Luckily the interview was in IIM Lucknow's Noida campus. I went to a computer lab and got it printed.
Hotel Kenilworth is 2-km walk from Esplanade, where I stayed in a place called Capital Guest House for one night costing Rs 600, just in case somebody else is going there too.
WAT:
They call us at 8:30, but WAT starts at 9. Please do make sure you catch the topic properly. They only narrate it twice and then you're supposed to write a 300-word long essay in 30 minutes.
My topic was something among the lines of 'Three justifications are given for muzzling right to speech on the internet: religion, privacy and national security. What are your views on this?'
PI:
The Personal Interviews start at 10:00. There were six panels running having eight candidates each.
My interview was about 20 to 30 minutes long. There were three professors, one of whom was busy verifying my documents for half the time of the interview. They took turns with me. Panelist #1 talked with me for ten minutes, then panelist #2 and then panelist #3. Nobody interrupted anybody. They spoke in their turn only.
After getting to know me and my background, they started talking with me. The questions were like the following:
1. What language is Facebook written in? Which language are they shifting to?
2. How can I, as a owner of WhatsApp, convert it to Snapchat?
3. What are three things you hate about your manager?
4. What are three things your mother doesn't like about you?
5. What are three things your girlfriend doesn't like about you?
6. What is the difference between Economy, Trade, Company and Industry?
7. Why are there so many engineers opting for MBA in India as opposed to Germany?
8. How can we solve the above problem?
9. In comparison with Germany, is Indian manufacturing industry better or worse?
10. Which company doesn't own any of its hotels but is the largest in the world in operations?
11. Which company doesn't own any of its loan officers but is the largest in the world in operations?
12. Which company doesn't own any of its cabs but is the largest in the world in operations?
13. What do these three companies have in common?
14. Why are these three companies so successful? And what is their revenue model?
15. Why is NoSQL in news all of a sudden? Why would you prefer NoSQL?
16. Do you have any question for us?
That's
all I can remember. The interview was okay, I guess. They had a lot of
follow-up questions that I didn't mention above because they're not
relevant. I've only written about the leading questions that started a
discussion. Follow-ups depend on the answers.
In case there's anything I can help you with, please let me know. I'll be extremely glad to help!
Good luck to all of you! Cheers!
a suggestion to all those guys who are currently pursuing their mba from any other college ...please have a solid reason to leave that college or you have a justification to why wasting the seat is worth ......i got roasted on this one today...

As IIT kharagpur has clearly mentioned that they will not entertain any request to change the interview date , I am left with no choice and in a state of dilemma whether to request IIM kashipur to reschedule my interview date.I tried calling them but admission helpline number is unreachable.So i have to decide whether i should be mailing them or not. As i dont want to miss any opportunity , any sort help will be welcomed.

@bangalore
What is the difference between extra curricular and co curricular activities with regards to the application form for new iims?Is it academic and non academic?But there is a common line under both the tabs which says
"These may include games and sports,cultural,literary and similar other activities." ..Can someone shed some light on this.?
Done with the interview . The process was smooth . The panel was too good, they made us feel comfortable. It was a great interaction I should say with the panel.Kudos to the IIM Kashipur team. Seniors have been so helpful. Now the wait starts to hope for the best 😁
