Hello frnds.........
Im a final yr(8th sem) student, with a few mnths
left 2 complt my B.Tech in Electrical engg.When i was in 3rd
yr...........i got recruited at MBT through campus
placement.............almost a yr back.At dat time i wasn't a membr of
dis grp bt now dat i hav bcome,i would like 2 share wit u my most
memorable incident.It was my 2nd attempt...........d first 2 come for
campus placemnt was Carritor..........dere i couldn't clear d written
test.After dat i started 2 brush up my C & Datastructure.
Some days later MBT came 2 recruit...........d
written test was held at Heritage Institute of Technology,Kolkata, were
nearly all collgs of Bengal sat 4 d xam.The paper was divided into 6
sections.............10min time was allotted for each section.u can't
revert back 2 d previous section nor can u proceed 2 d nxt one b4 10min
is over.This time schedule was strictly followed.
There was negative marking,1 mark is deducted for every
wrong ans.So no chance of any guess work.
1st section : Quantitative Aptitude----- 12-16
questions were dere 2 b done in 10min. I answered 4.
2nd section : Reading Comprehension------ The
passage was 2 b read in 7min.While reading u can't look at d
questions........they r 2 b answered later in 3min.Total 7+3=10min
3rd section : Data Interpretation----- All types
of graphs,pie charts,data tables etc.U can't attempt all in
10min....accuracy is highly needed.
4th section : Logical & Critical Reasoning------
contained all types.........R.S Agarwal can b useful in dis section
5th section : Verbal-Non Verbal-------
6th section : Mixed section----- some questions
of Data Sufficiency,Analytical Reasoning,Series etc
Total 1 hour paper,10min allotted for each section. The key point is
precision,accuracy & speed.It doesn't matter how many questions u
answer bt how many u hav answered correctly is wat dat matters d most.
Nearly a mnth later d result was declared.From our
collg 15-18 students from all the 4 depts(
Electrical,Telecom,Instrumentation & Comp Sc) cleared d written xam.
3-4 days later GD,Technical & HR was conducted at d
same venue.In GD dere were 15 students in each grp.In our group every1
spoke well & it was really tough 2 eliminate.............8 got
selected.Our topic was Benefits of GD.3 ppl were dere 2 conduct d
GD...........one was marking on attitude& bahaviour,the othr was
marking on our way of speaking and the last one was taking note of our
overall conduct.After 15-20 min of discussion we were told 2 stop &
then they told those who still den wasn't able 2 speak 2 give their
opinion.Last of all we were told 2 summarise.
Techical consisted of questions from C &
Datastructure.I was told 2 write a program on factorial both recursive
& non-recursive methods.Questions from Control System and Machines(Dept
subjct) were also asked.Since i was in 3rd yr & we r supposed 2 do
Project in our final yr..........so no questions from project were
asked.Bt i guess they would b asking dat if u r a final yr
student.Lastly i was told if i had anythng 2 ask.This round lasted for
35-40min.
HR round was quite long..............around 50min.The
person who took my intrvu made sure dat he left no stone unturned.I was
told 2 do mental sums,solve a puzzle.GK questions were asked like the
name of d governor of a state.I was asked questions 2 judge how much i
knew bout MBT...............wat r d spcl features of dis company,wat is
meant by CMM Level 5 grade,if im offered a job from state electricity
board(since im an electrical engg) den wat would i do,d meaning of my
name,why i chose 2 study electrical,why do i write poems(i mentioned in
my cv) & wat is my latest poem,wat is d speciality of Bengal etc.Atlast
he told me" It was nice speaking to you,Thank you".I thanked him & left
d room much 2 my relief.The nxt day final result was announced.10
students from my collg were selected.......i was one among d lucky
10........i don't know regarding d no. of students selected from othr
collgs.
I had received my Offer letter & a T-Shirt wit MBT
printed on it...................
I am waiting for my call letter..............i'll b finishing my final
sem in d mnth of June,2006.
Wishing u guys & gals all d
best.................may b i'll meet any1 of u at MBT !!!!!!
