Before preparing, know what to expect — rounds like:

• Aptitude Test

• Group Discussion

• Technical Interview

• HR Interview

Focus on:

• Core subjects (branch-wise)

• Problem-solving and logic

• Basics of programming (if applicable)

Strong communication can make or break your interview

Practice:

• English speaking

• Mock interviews

• Group discussions

Add value with:

• Coding (C++, Python, Java)

• Tools like Excel, SQL, or Power BI

• Internships or online projects

Keep it:

• One page, clean layout

• Highlight projects & achievements

• No fake info!
