There were two phases in the Interview Process:
- First Phase: Platform- Talview

First Phase: Platform- Talview
Round 1(Aptitude): This is a basic aptitude round consisting of 45 questions to be completed in 40 minutes. Questions were on the topics:
- Quantitative Analysis

Tip:
- Just try to be quick and attempt as many as you can, give timed mock tests.
- Do not leave any question unmarked since it has no negative marking.
Round 2(PSDD – Problem Solving Deep Dive ): This round included a small case study related to some business scenario where you are required to answer 8-10 MCQ questions based on the case study in around 30 Minutes. You cannot go back to the previous question in this round.
Round 3(Video Interview): This will be a video interview round where you are supposed to record your answer for about 3 Mins each for 2 questions. The questions are scenarios based and there might be some guesstimates but their probability is low.
Tip: Before speaking, compose your answer thoroughly and try to include various aspects of the solution. Give this with a calm mind and try to speak fluently without any pauses.
Note – All Rounds are elimination round.
