Joy knew no Bounds!!
Name: Aasakti
On 17th Aug , after having faced two rounds (written and GD) for the placement procedure of TTL (Tata Technologies Ltd.) , it was almost evening and I had been waiting impatiently for the results . I was relieved when I saw my name in the list of candidates selected for interview .
The interview had both technical and HR rounds . Though HR rounds have been my strong point but at times I fail to give my optimum in the technical rounds . I was called for the technical round first . I mumbled a small prayer and entered the room . Unlike my expectation , the two interviewers lightened the scenario by asking certain basic questions first like my introduction , subjects I have read till now in B.E. and why I opted for the extension center of B.I.T. Mesra . After that they shifted to a series of database questions . Though I answered most of them but even gave some wrong answers . Then they asked me if I had some experience in web application development . Luckily I had . This was again followed by some more questions . This time they were quite specific about their work and wanted to check if I could easily adapt to new programming skills or not . After appraox 45 minutes , my interview was over .
It was 10 p.m. by then and I was totally exhausted . But I had to wait for some more time before my turn came for HR round.
The HR began with details of educational as well as family background . They asked for 10th , 12th percentage , AIEEE ranks, current class rank , CGPA etc along with some work info of family members . Then they wanted to know if I had any preference for place of joining or working shifts . Prior to me most the candidates had been asked a common question as to why should the company hire us and when I was thrown the same , before I could present my well-polished answer the HR changed it to “Give me one reason why TTL should not hire you.” . It left me thinking for some time but I confidently answered “Sir, presently I don’t see any reason why the company shouldn’t hire me.” . Though I was a bit apprehend what if the HR took it as a sign of arrogance . Some more general HR questions were asked . It was 11 p.m. when I came out of the HR room with mind full of expectations and apprehensions for the final outcome and a completely empty stomach . After having dinner , we all were waiting nervously for the list of selected candidates .
My joy knew no bounds when at around 1:30 a.m. a telephone call from the Training and Placement Division informed me that I was one of the selected candidates and I needed to come to the T&P Cell next day to collect some forms.
