First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at Indian Institute of Science.
Research Assistant
The interview process will include an initial self-introduction, a deep dive into your resume, live coding sessions where you'll demonstrate your skills in real-time, and in-depth explanations. This will be conducted with a postdoc and a research assistant.
- Can you elaborate on all the projects and experiences detailed in your CV?
- Walk me through your resume and explain your background.
- Show me your coding skills with a live demonstration.
Research Assistant
For MTech by Research, there was a technical round before the interview. In that round, they asked 3 aptitude questions and one coding question. After that, they shortlisted candidates and called them one by one.
- Can you give me a basic introduction?
- Could you please explain the DSF and BSF algorithms and write their pseudocode?
Undergraduate Research Assistant
First, we had to submit a research proposal for preliminary selection. Then, there was an online interview about the proposal, which included review and technical questions related to it. After that, we moved to an offline interview which had a technical round about the project and a non-technical round focusing on soft skills.
- Can you describe your undergraduate project?
- Could you explain how robotics is applied in industry?
