Jaguar land rover visited our campus for on-campus recruitment.
Background: [Tire-1 IIT, Non-Circuital branch student (Material science and metallurgy)]
Round 1(DSA and Aptitude):
Round 2(Interview 1): Initially, there were 3 panel members most of them 2-3 yrs older than the final undergraduates and it was pretty easy.
- They first asked me to introduce myself and made me comfortable. They introduced themselves.
- Later They asked me why I wanted to shift my career path from my department to software and some other basic general questions. The interviewer wanted to know if i could so asked me to solve very basic questions as he isn’t expecting much from me. swap 2 numbers without using any extra variables, efficient way to calculate product of a number with 2 (left shift of bits), intersection of two linked lists.
- Later he asked me if I knew anything about DBMS and I said I knew only basic concepts of DBMS and he asked me about ACID properties and Normalisation. Only 5 are shortlisted for round 2 and luckily i was one among them.
Round 3(Interview 2): This round is completely on basis of my resume.
- The interviewer wanted to know the depth of the concepts u learned by doing those projects. I mentioned EDA analysis of netflix dataset and todolist using Django. I explained my project in-depth and answered them all the questions they had. Please do not mention projects that you haven’t done by your own or didn’t learn.
- Later I was asked to come up with an approach to return a random number from a range of numbers without using random module. I came up with an approach but it wasn’t right but the pannel was soo supportive and they corrected me. Later they asked me what I knew about jaguar and why I want to work at jaguar.
- After 2 hours only 2 are selected and I am one of them.
Verdict: Selected
Tips and Advice:
- You don’t need a circutal branch degree inorder to work at jaguar so don’t lose hopes that u are not from cse or ee or mnc.
- Be open and frank and dont try to sugar coat your interviewers as many of them are from IITs and they will easily catch you.
- Do not include anything in resume that you are not at all confident.
- Be through with your DSA because that is the only thing that mattters at JLR
- Never give up on your abilities. it required lot of patience.
Hope this helps everyone who are preparing for JLR.
