IIM Calcutta Interview Experience

Body

a 6 minute interview. Profile: SC engineering Male Fresher

P1: what other calls you have

A: every other iim except a and b

P1 why not a and b

A: I don't know the true reason but if I have to say it's cause A take less candidates for their interview and B has more work ex students, so as a fresher engineer I might not have cleared the cutoff.

P1: but you must be destroyed aren't your dreams shattered

A: told confidently na I have the call from one of the best and oldest iim in country why would I be upset

Then they both started talking in hindi

P1: why mba

A: going to tell a prepared answer but cutoff after 1 and half line, the first line was filler line to start the answer

P1: tumhare pass work ex nahi toh tum Kaya karoge mba karke

P1 : pata nahi kahaan se leke aate h itna confidence yeh freshies( not fresher) ki yeh work ex wollon ko beat kar lenge, me tumhe dishearten nahi karna chata hoon par koi nahi.
