MBT success story.....  
 

Hello frnds.........
                   Im a final yr(8th sem) student, with a few mnths left 2 complt my B.Tech in Electrical engg.When i was in 3rd yr...........i got recruited at MBT through campus placement.............almost a yr back.At dat time i wasn't a membr of dis grp bt now dat i hav bcome,i would like 2 share wit u my most memorable incident.It was my 2nd attempt...........d first 2 come for campus placemnt was Carritor..........dere i couldn't clear d written test.After dat i started 2 brush up my C & Datastructure.
                       Some days later MBT came 2 recruit...........d written test was held at Heritage Institute of Technology,Kolkata, were nearly all collgs of Bengal sat 4 d xam.The paper was divided into 6 sections.............10min time was allotted for each section.u can't revert back 2 d previous section nor can u proceed 2 d nxt one b4 10min is over.This time schedule was strictly followed.
            There was negative marking,1 mark is deducted for every wrong ans.So no chance of any guess work.
                      1st section : Quantitative Aptitude----- 12-16 questions were dere 2 b done in 10min. I answered 4.
                      2nd section : Reading Comprehension------ The passage was 2 b read in 7min.While reading u can't look at d questions........they r 2 b answered later in 3min.Total 7+3=10min
                      3rd section : Data Interpretation----- All types of graphs,pie charts,data tables etc.U can't attempt all in 10min....accuracy is highly needed.
                      4th section : Logical & Critical Reasoning------ contained all types.........R.S Agarwal can b useful in dis section
                      5th section : Verbal-Non Verbal------- 
                      6th section : Mixed section----- some questions of Data Sufficiency,Analytical Reasoning,Series etc
Total 1 hour paper,10min allotted for each section. The key point is precision,accuracy & speed.It doesn't matter how many questions u answer bt how many u hav answered correctly is wat dat matters d most.
                Nearly a mnth later d result was declared.From our collg 15-18 students from all the 4 depts( Electrical,Telecom,Instrumentation & Comp Sc) cleared d written xam.
                 3-4 days later GD,Technical & HR was conducted at d same venue.In GD dere were 15 students in each grp.In our group every1 spoke well & it was really tough 2 eliminate.............8 got selected.Our topic was Benefits of GD.3 ppl were dere 2 conduct d GD...........one was marking on attitude& bahaviour,the othr was marking on our way of speaking and the last one was taking note of our overall conduct.After 15-20 min of discussion we were told 2 stop & then they told those who still den wasn't able 2 speak 2 give their opinion.Last of all we were told 2 summarise.
                 Techical consisted of questions from C & Datastructure.I was told 2 write a program on factorial both recursive & non-recursive methods.Questions from Control System and Machines(Dept subjct) were also asked.Since i was in 3rd yr & we r supposed 2 do Project in our final yr..........so no questions from project were asked.Bt i guess they would b asking dat if u r a final yr student.Lastly i was told if i had anythng 2 ask.This round lasted for 35-40min.
                 HR round was quite long..............around 50min.The person who took my intrvu made sure dat he left no stone unturned.I was told 2 do mental sums,solve a puzzle.GK questions were asked like the name of d governor of a state.I was asked questions 2 judge how much i knew bout MBT...............wat r d spcl features of dis company,wat is meant by CMM Level 5 grade,if im offered a job from state electricity board(since im an electrical engg) den wat would i do,d meaning of my name,why i chose 2 study electrical,why do i write poems(i mentioned in my cv) & wat is my latest poem,wat is d speciality of Bengal etc.Atlast he told me" It was nice speaking to you,Thank you".I thanked him & left d room much 2 my relief.The nxt day final result was announced.10 students from my collg were selected.......i was one among d lucky 10........i don't know regarding d no. of students selected from othr collgs.
                   I had received my Offer letter & a T-Shirt wit MBT printed on it...................
I am waiting for my call letter..............i'll b finishing my final sem in d mnth of June,2006.
                    Wishing u guys & gals all d best.................may b i'll meet any1 of u at MBT !!!!!!
