Battling The Sea Of Confusion - To Do Or Not Do An MBA?
Somebody rightly said that in India, We become Engineers first then decide our careers later. The phrase ‘What Next?’ being used very prominently as we draw to a close to the last leg of our engineering days. This thought starts becoming more and more astounding as time passes by and we reach an impasse.

“What are the expected questions that could be asked in the IIM interview?”- a voice on the phone started my day and a realisation struck me. Almost 9 months have passed by at IIML, but it still feels like yesterday. The preparation for IIM interviews, getting into IIML, the induction, the classes, the deadlines, the CV preparation and the summer placements-life indeed has been a roller coaster ride.

Cracking The Interview - The Professional Way
Millions of students give an average of 10–15 interviews before landing a job in their placements session while pursuing their undergraduate or post graduate degree. But there always are a few students who manage to bag high-end jobs that break university records. They say it’s a secret, they say it cannot be revealed, but it isn’t so. The fact of the matter is that employers visiting to recruit look for the most basic of etiquette's and mannerisms.

Expectation Vs Reality - 5 Things In MBA That Are Different From Expectations
Every MBA aspirant in India goes through a long process of taking the entrance exam, filling form of colleges, waiting for the shortlists, appearing for the interviews and then awaiting the final results, if one gets through then it’s okay but many have to patiently watch the wait-list move before getting that ‘accomplished wali’ feeling. Many aspirants become serial CAT taker in order to get to their dream B-school, the place which would not just offer them a good profile and package but also 2 years of action-packed college life.

Things To Consider When You Are Stepping Into The MBA World
With shortlists coming out from left, right and centre along with the last stage interviews going on in a parallel manner, no wonder aspirants tend to panic and get confused. And it is not something one needs to be ashamed of - come January and every aspirant worth the number of tests solved is busy running helter-skelter, both figuratively and physically.

Pre-Interview Test And Personal Interview Of TISS, HRM &LR - 'Survival Of The Fittest'
People who aspire to join the Human Resources Management and Labour Relations course at TISS Mumbai are familiar with the fact that cracking TISSNET is only half the battle won; the more challenging and gruelling rounds are yet to come. The Pre-Interview Test and Personal Interview rounds are often considered to be the make-or-break rounds for your final selection and there is a good reason for this. Unlike most other management courses, the PIT & PI rounds for TISS admissions have a 20 and 40 percent weightage respectively, coupled with an extremely tough final selection ratio. This thought makes many people approach these rounds with a great deal of apprehension, and sometimes even make them entirely give up.

How To Get Into An IIM - An Interview Guide
I remember, not so long ago, when I was in that very position. When our MBA training institutes, hell bent at making us learn our ‘HR answers’, had convinced us that there’d be veritable dragons sitting on the panel who will look at everything – from the crease on your collar to your missing dupatta! And then there were all the legends, who someone had heard from a friend’s friend, of panels with over 10 dignitaries from various fields asking you questions with no correct answer possible just to test your mettle! Obscure riddles and situations – from an interviewer breaking a glass and asking you to count the pieces to someone asking you how many stars are there in the sky! Everything had made its rounds.
