The preliminary test was conducted for around 90 minutes, online. The noteworthy point here was that, each question had a certain amount of time allotted to it (varying from 45 seconds to 3 minutes),after which the question changes whether we answer it or not. There was no negative marking as far as i remember. Further, the technical questions asked were pretty simple and theoretical (e.g. ‘machinability of steel can be increased by adding ?‘ is one of the simplest questions ). Relationship among families sort of questions were asked in analytical/reasoning section. 3 or 4 assertion-reason type questions also formed a part of the test.

A relaxed approach is the thought of that day. Brush up your basics in heat treatment and materials thoroughly. In the interview, answers are expected from a metallurgical point of view. So, try stressing upon microstructures and phases. Guesses might work, but in a reasonable sense, but, keep in mind, erratic guessing will be disastrous. |
