I was told the first round would be a project presentation, and I had prepared my slides. However, the manager did not want that. He had made a PowerPoint with questions, and we started with that. The questions were mostly about beams (cantilever, simply supported) and material science, primarily involving aluminum and stainless steel.

I think the interview was not very difficult, but I could not answer all questions because I had not prepared well.

1. Cantilever beam with a point load, which is the point of high stress.

2. If the same cantilever beam is made of Al or SS, how would the stress profile differ?
