WAT topic : online learning more efficient than traditional learning. GI 1 : 5 persons, all for IM, interview was pretty standard, tell me about yourself, why IM,role in your company, role looking for post MBA, more grilling on what you do in your company, occasional questions about IT. 3 selected for next round GI 2 : interview was chill, started with views on LGBT,recent events regarding the issue, ethics vs morality-this was discussed for the major part, some decision making questions, pretty much that's it.
I have got call for ops. Have experience in oil and gas sector (process engineering). Can someone with a similar profile help me with the "why MBA in ops" qs?
Interview Exp: 5th Feb Bangalore Wat along with psychometric test (30mins): Can war be used to fight terror GI1(6ppl- 3IM, 2finance and 1marketing): Started with some discussion on gender diversity (since all 6 were boys and to ease of interview pressure) Then short background of each of us. Some discussion within group if anything interesting is said in short description (like one of us spoke about cricket and discussion went on to who should be Indian team captain) Why mba in particular domain (they are looking for genuine reasons.Just can't mention that you are interested so) From here discussion goes on what you speak. For GI2 3ppl got selected - 2 IM and 1 marketing GI2: Entirely behavioral interview More of discussion based then actual interview Started with discussion on inequality and then went on to reservations and then social responsibilities of businesses, pollution, etc. Both interviews went for around 1+hour..but it's discussions so no stress or nervousness felt. Also panelists are very chilled out if you answer them truthfully and specifically. All The Best!!!

First and only interview this year. 6 people in Group: 1 IM, 1 Operations, 1 Marketing (Me), 3 Finance. I Got Eliminated in GI-1 and 2 from my Group made it. It started with 'What do you want others to see you as'? I said a good leader n blah blah. 2nd Question 'Why MBA?'. Be well versed with this question, as i peeked into the diary of a panelist taking note and she wrote 'excellent' for second last candidate for this question and he got selected. And they asked a question on 'Nationalization of Bank' whose article came in Newspaper on the day of interview and i was completely not aware of it.
Please list a few basic concepts of marketing that have been asked in the interviews or from your experience which one should know.
Interview location - Delhi Date - 11th Feb 2016 Time - 2:00 PM WAT Topic - Wisdom is just a perception of looking at things. Do you agree that wisdom comes with age? Group Interview 1 2 Panelists - 1 male Nd 1 female 6 Candidates - 3 Finance (including me), 1 marketing and 2 information management 1. Asked us to quickly tell us abt ourselves in 30 seconds..if its not something on the form, better it is.! 2. Asked marketing guy abt his job profile and then directed him to the question why in marketing? Ur profile is better suited for Ops! :-P 3. Asked the other 2 ppl frm engineering background why finance? Grilled over it 4. Somewhere between this whole, fiscal deficit comes up and he asks me to explain the causes of fiscal deficit..!!! 🤔 "Sorry sir, I don't know" 😑 5. Asked me "Why did you chose to do graduation as correspondence! Don't u think u missed on the whole college life and the fun" 6. Why did you go to Mumbai for internship? (I had done a 3 years internship during my CA course in Mumbai. P.s. I am from Jaipur) 7. Have you followed stock markets closely? Answered 8. What are the factors that are causing the downfall in the markets? Answered 9. So do u think India will continue to have a roaring future? I said yes 10. But just now u said that the global market is also falling...china, UK, US, Europe... Everyone is down..how do u say that India will be growing amidst all this.? That was GI 1. 4 of us got through. 2 other finance spec ppl were rejected. Group interview 2 2 Panelists again A member of Adcom also sitting in the room. GI 2 was very chilled. No current affairs, nothing abt work experience.. Just few case studies, the stand u take, and reasons to justify the same. More of a discussion with faculties and enjoyed it highly.. :-) P.S. they also discussed abt AIB Roast (Ranveer singh and Arjun Kapoor one) 🤓 Just one suggestion guys...be urself during the interview. And it'll be good. Hope this helps.. All the best. :-D

There were 5 ppl in the group. All were asked to introduce ourselves and why SPJIMR. Then questions were based on recent events like JNU, Make in India and 1 or 2 questions pertaining to the domain they had opted for. Lasted for 45mins.
All 5 through to G2.
