Technical Technical
It was an on-campus placement drive. The first round involved basic electrical subjects like electrical machines, power electronics, and microprocessors/microcontrollers, along with an aptitude section that was easy. You should really focus on core subjects to pass the first round. The second round was a technical round where they test your basics. Prepare a good self-introduction and be clear about your projects. It's actually easy to clear the technical round. Some other companies had gamified aptitude rounds.
