I do not remember the exact flow of the interview, but I recall at some point of time, we were talking of “Brand Mallya” and organizations were judged a lot based on their ‘face-personalities’. I also vaguely remember talking how we 90s kids were one of the most advantaged, since we got to see both sides of India while growing up. We were having candid discussion about the difference between present gen kids and that of the past. I guess, they were testing my personality and ability to put my thoughts in a coherent and structured way – which is very much essential in banking.
Axis bank gave us the luxury of choosing the department we intended to intern. They wanted us to do things that interest us. But they also encouraged us to explore beyond our comfort zones and experiment. The interview was consistent with this philosophy. I was mostly asked about subjects that intrigued me. Confidence along with humbleness goes a long way in creating good impressions.
