Pursuing a Dream

Any preparation for CAT is a waste if you are not confident enough to face the challenge. So, the first and foremost thing is to be well prepared, especially in your weak areas. Nothing can ever replace practice. So, take every Mock CAT as if it is the real CAT and the real CAT like a Mock CAT. Thoroughly analyze your Mock CAT so as to identify your mistakes and weak areas and progressively work towards improving them. Bring focus in your preparation.

In order to be mentally prepared for the exam, be ambitious and never ever think that cracking CAT is not possible for you. You just have to believe in yourself and your ambition should be to get admission in the best institute. It is extremely essential that you remain calm and focused during the exam time. Every single minute, or should I say every single second, counts. Forget about the world and believe that you will make your destiny on the exam day. If you think you are not motivated enough to work hard for this, then try to fascinate yourself by the life at a B-school. That will help you bring that motivation from within you to work for the goal.

Don’t fear sounding stupid if you don’t understand something. Don’t keep your any doubts unanswered. Discuss your doubts with your friends and teachers. There should not be single doubt in your mind on the exam day. That will help you communicate and be confident and this is what u all need for the exam. Only a confident mind can be cool and being composed during the exam time is a virtue for all.

Life @ IIM or for that matter at a premier B-school in India is one a must-have experience if someone has not been to IIT in his life. For IITians, IIM is better . You get to interact with so many brilliant individuals. So much to learn and so must to develop yourself that you would have thought that college life should have been for an eternal lifetime.

In the end, don’t ever feel disheartened by your failure. Everyone has a potential to excel in life under any circumstances and at any place. In life what matters if working to for the goals which you always wanted to achieve. Strive hard and you the wonders and laurels your hard work can bring to you.

Hi Friends,
First of all thanks to CareerInfoline for providing me this wonderful opportunity to share my experience with all the fellow engineers. 
The process started with a written round that was completely non-technical. It contained verbal and quantitative questions. There were three sections: Aptitude, English and Logical Reasoning. One complete section was from GRE Barrons book. The written test had no sectional cut off and negative marking which made it comfortably easy.

 I was shortlisted for interview. There were three rounds of interviews before final selection was made: Technical, Managerial and HR. One should not be too scared of the technical questions. The panel just looks for conceptual understanding in your core subjects. Also note that you must have good hold on the projects and trainings during college.

My Experience:

TCS Interview Panel: Introduce yourself!

Myself: I expected this question and had prepared well with guidance from CareerInfoline team. This is the time when you can actually take control of the entire process and direct your interview towards your strong areas.

While I was answering the interviewer browsed through my resume.

TCS Interview Panel: What is your favorite subject?

Myself: I said as such I don’t like one particular subject and told him about a few subjects in which I focus my energy.

Then he started asking some basic questions from subjects I mentioned. 

TCS Interview Panel: What are protocols and IP addresses?

Myself: Easy. Answered to his satisfaction J

TCS Interview Panel: What is a signal?

Myself: Anything which carries useful electrical information.

TCS Interview Panel: What is 8051 and how is it different from 8085?

Myself: 8051 is a microcontroller and 8085 is a microprocessor. The primary difference between the two is of memory.

TCS Interview Panel: Tell me about your project.

Myself: Answered it in the best possible way. I was well prepared for this question.

TCS Interview Panel: So you did your training from Nokia Siemens. What did you learn from there?

Myself: I had already prepared well for this part as CIL team shared with us that it will most probably be asked during the interview.

TCS Interview Panel: How are your programming skills in C language?

Myself: Just told them frankly that I know it at a very basic level and is trying to work on it. I added that I have took up a project in C which would further my understanding of the language. 

TCS Interview Panel: Biggest challenge you faced so far in college?

Myself: Told them about an extra curricular activity during which I led a team and how tough it was to manage people.

Career Infoline Word of Advice: For such type of questions, please make sure that you just don’t cook up something on the spot because that reflect in your response as well as in confidence level. So take your time and think about it. Don’t ponder whether they would think its great or not. It should be something which you are proud of.

Later I got call for HR round.

The interviewer asked some questions about the things I wrote in my resume.

TCS Interview Panel: Who is there in your family?

Myself: Answered it well.

TCS Interview Panel: Are you comfortable with us making you work anywhere in India or abroad?

Myself: I said YES without any thought.

Career Infoline Word of Advice: Please be sure to know your resume well. Almost 60% of my all rounds of interviews were based on my resume. They will know it if you are trying to bluff or fake experience.

The results were announced on the next day. Yaa-aay, I had made into TCS.

IIM- Ahmedabad, an Experience worth Sharing!!

For accessing quality CAT tests login to www.mymbaprep.com and for guidance and discussing your doubts with IIM mentors login to www.careerinfoline.com.

It was one of the most prestigious moments of my life when I walked into the Indian Institute of Management, Ahmedabad campus. There was a sense of accomplishment and happiness.

There wasn’t any gap in my calendar, not even a Sunday, since I started preparing for CAT and other exams. First there were the written tests and then interviews and to add to all this, my college exams. Once here, the entire fatigue almost disappeared. However, there was this strange feeling of not knowing what would be coming up in next few days in a strange place full of strangers!

I had joined as a doctoral student but no one seemed to believe it after meeting me. I was the youngest in the lot and therefore had many people to take care of me.  I thank God for that!!!  This is how my life as an FPM started at IIM A.

Fellow Program in Management (FPM) is a doctoral program offered by all IIMs. The FPM program prepares students to pursue a career, which requires high scholastic aptitude and academic research. Therefore, it looks for highly motivated students interested in academics and having an inclination towards research. It is a four and half year long rigorous course which requires lots of patience and focus. At IIMA, It is offered in 10 different areas of specialization.

The institute considers different scores, for different areas of specialization, which include GATE, UGC-JRF and CAT etc. Candidates are shortlisted on the basis of the scores and have to appear for an interview which basically gauges the academic preparation and the motivation levels for research. The interview process is once in a lifetime experience. It is not a stress interview but an opportunity to interact with some of the best minds in the field of management. The interview was fun and I actually mean it.  I recommend everybody undergoes it once just for the experience of it.

 I am a life science student and had no background of management when I appeared for the interview. However, I had revised thoroughly everything that I had studied in my post graduation. The panel asked me questions based on what I had studied and then listened patiently to my answers. The panel was more than happy to hear me out and even guide me if required. And thus with a faculty dinner starts a long and arduous journey called FPM.

 There were questions on current affairs related to agriculture – the area I had applied for, a few general questions testing my knowledge of management and statistics; and some HR questions testing soft skills. And at the end of 45 minutes, I wanted to sit there and continue to chat but they said that they were done. J

The course is designed with several different phases. The first year courses are the same as the PGPs and provide a general overview of management. Second year focuses on the area of specialization with doctoral level courses in the respective areas. This is the time when a student gets to know more about his/ her area and has the opportunity to dig deep into the areas of interest along with development of research skills. The next two years are basically the doctoral dissertation where an individual makes the contribution to the chosen area of specialization. All through these years, an FPM student needs to have patience and the passion to work on his/her area of interest. This is how a long and trying journey of an FPM concludes but the learning continues.

The 4.5 years of FPM will help you grow intellectually, personally and professionally. All you need is to be serious and perseverant and above all, have faith in yourself.
