Profile: 10th - 96.4%; 12th - 94.4% Graduation- 9.38 CGPA (UG- BTech in Metallurgy and Materials Engineering from IIEST, Shibpur) One of the interviewers was female(F1) while the other one was male(M1). Both of them were professors. M1 started the interview. M1: What is the difference between strength and hardness? Me: Started with the definition. But he didn’t seem to be happy with the answer. So, I switched over to the processes in which they are tested. I elaborated on how compressive tests, tensile tests, and indentation tests are done. We had a discussion on it. M1: Unit of strength Me: Nm-2 M1: Difference between cast iron and pig iron. Me: Explained the difference on the basis of composition and how cast iron is purer than pig iron. Briefly compared their hardness and brittleness. M1: Difference between Tempering and Annealing. Me: Stated the difference in the process and how they have an effect on the hardness and overall property of the material. I illustrated it with a sample and we had a brief discussion over martempering and austempering. M1: What is CRGO? Me: Didn’t know the answer to this. Later found out that it is cold-rolled grain-oriented steel. M1: Your goals in life? Me: Told him. M1:Why MBA? Me: Answered it. M1: What is the meaning of Meghalaya? Me: It means abode of clouds(M1 and F1 nodded) (This question was pretty common. Many of the students were asked this. So, I prepared myself well with the geography of the entire state.) M1: I am done. F1 continued with the interview. F1: How did you utilize the lockdown? Me: Told them how usually I stay in my hostel so these three years I couldn’t spend much time with my family. So, during this time, we cooked, cleaned the house, and talked about the good old days. Apart from that, I learned a lot of things. Wrote a literature review. F1:What are your weaknesses? Me: Told her F1: Name two epics. Me: Ramayan and Mahabharat F1: Which one is your favorite? Me: Ramayan F1: Who wrote it? Me: Valmiki F1: We are done with the interview. Thank you.
