After this round, some of the applicants were eliminated, but I was fortunate enough to have cleared it and was called for the next round. I was among the initial people among the shortlisted to have been called for the interview. We were interviewed by 2 senior executives from the company. The first question which I was asked was “Why MBA after Engineering”. I felt confident about the answer as I had a tailor-made answer, which I reproduced during the interview. Since I am fresher, I was asked about my Engineering curriculum especially about my branch (ICT), about my strong subjects, about my B Tech project and other related stuff. After this, I was asked some questions related to Derivatives and the final question about “How do I see myself in future”. I said that I want to be an Entrepreneur, after which I was asked to present them an idea with a business and revenue model for it similar to an Idea Pitch. The whole interview went on for around 30-40mins.
The whole process was very exhausting. I was on cloud 9 when the results were announced that I was offered a chance to intern with them. This will be my very first experience in the real corporate world. I have dual feelings, as I am a bit scared about my performance during the internship and on the other hand I am very excited to work with one of the largest Investment banks of the world.
