Behavioral Technical Case Presentation

After completing the document verification work, I was led into the interview room where I met a panel of four members. They began by asking for an introduction. Using the information from my introduction, they then asked further questions related to my background. Following that, they posed questions about techno-economic viability studies. A case study involving TEV was then presented, and I was asked to offer suggestions. The interview concluded with questions about finance ratios and government schemes.

Technical Behavioral

The interview process involved a written assessment covering aptitude, reasoning, and essay writing. This was followed by an initial interview and then a final interview with technical personnel. I was unfortunately rejected in the second round. The written part was straightforward, and the interview also seemed easy. My advice for the interview is to provide detailed answers; I made the mistake of giving short responses, which I believe led to my failure to qualify in the initial interview.

Confirmed questions3 questions
  • Can you explain what underwriting is?
  • Could you detail the process involved in underwriting?

Technical Group Behavioral

the process of getting employed in a public sector organisation is country level entrance test, followed by group discussion and/or interview. In my case there was two tier written test followed by an interview. the interview for all the selected individuals spanned over 3 days all over the country with various center. around 200 were called each day for the interview across various states so one can imagine the waiting the one has to go through even if there are 3-4 panels. My turn came after a suspense period of 7 long hours of waiting. The interview panel to my surprise was very jovial and made me feel at home from the moment i entered the interview hall.
