I landed the interview via an on-campus placement process through my college. There was an OA round, and I was shortlisted based on merit and CV. There were two panelists; it was an offline interview, with one of the panelists being my future manager. The interview started with basic questions to get to know the candidate (me) and then proceeded to technical questions. There was no HR round, only one technical round where core mechanical engineering questions were asked. Overall, a very chill experience, but the experience largely depends on the panel and panelists. My peers had a hard time with their panelists grilling them about their projects and what not. I wasn't asked a single question from my projects, but I'd recommend people reading this to brush up on their projects thoroughly.

I was asked simple questions first to make me comfortable, like: "Introduce yourself," "What do you miss about home in Bangalore?" (I said street food), and "What do you like to do on weekends?" etc.

In the technical round, I was asked to draw the SFD and BMD of a simply supported beam with a point load at the center and then with a pure bending moment added at the center.

Draw the SFF and BMD of a T-section.

Draw the stress-strain curve of mild steel, aluminum, and titanium.

What alloys are used in airplanes, and of what grade?

How does deformation occur in milling?
