hey guys i havent received my score card yet...interview on 18th...ne1 have received it yet....wat shall i do...
@naive1999 said:I m from the Finance stream. Finance placements have been goin well in past. About 60% of the batch gets placed by March 31st. But this year due to the slump in economy, FInance placements have been affected in all B-School. Presently 9 students have been place in fin out of 60..with 1.5 months of placement session left. Being from the Finance stream and also the Placement Representative for the current batch, I would suggest you to get into XISS Finance, if you are good in academics. The placements will be good this year too with the companies lined up. But you have to score well when u are at XISS. Its a good institute. The highest package for Finance this year is 4.85 lacs and the Avg package is 4 lacs.words of a current sdudent on finance at xiss............
anyone who is from bhubaneswar odisha and have got a call at xiss nd have gd pi on 21st feb at kolkatta can pm me or let me know as i have got one and leaving on 20

puyz enuff of chit chats.......lets focus on the real GDPI and the surprise WAT{if we get } @admcell plz guyz where are u show some response !!!
Lets focus on GDPI now. Lets decide a topic for a day and then discuss it within the limited time span. Wat say guyz?
1. Tell me about yourself.
The origin of this masterpiece is unknown but if rumors are to be believed this question was first asked by Yamraj to Nachiketa :-P
2. Why MBA?
Caution: Control your inner feelings. To say truths that you are bored of Software or you want more money is a strict No No.
3. Which field do you wish to specialize in and why?
Let your imagination go wild. Hold the hand of the interviewer, look directly into his eyes and repeat the dialogue of Dil Chahta hai....Mera janm sirf isi liye hua hai taki main ek din Marketing me kaam kar sakoon Shalini :-P
4. What is your plan if you don't get into MBA?
Will accept the offer to play for Indian cricket team or would feature in Ramu's Bhoot 11 opposite Antara Mali. Huh?!
5. Your hobbies or what do you do in your free time?
Charity!! I had a great contribution in making Orkut a big hit and facebook is a live example you see!!
6. Your 3 strengths and weaknesses?
Strengths: I can run without petrol, can talk nonsense for hours and sleep without winking. Weaknesses: Girls, girls, girls :-D
7. How many close friends do you have? What is good about XYZ friend ?
Let me count...1,2,3...hey can I use fingers of my toes for counting? I like "XYZ" because he is very co-operative. He helped me pass my exams during my engineering days.
9. Why XYZ college?
Because it is the best college in milky way. Interviewer: Majak mat karo. Me: Suruwaat kisne ki :-P
10. Question on ethics (it can be asked directly like are you ethical? Or they may ask you in a roundabout way giving the situation)?
Take out a ten ruppe note from your pocket. Tear it. Put your hand on your chest aur bolo: Agar Bapu ko kahin rakhne ka na to idhar rakhne ka mamu. And don't forget to give "Jaadu ki Jhappi" :-P
11. Your views on current topics?
As if that matters!!
12. Which is the last book you read? (You should prepare a short summary of the book in mind, learning, you should be aware about the name of author and publication as well as other books by the same author)
Quote books like Two States, one night@ call center at your own risk!!
13. Which is the last business book/management book you read? Your learning from it and other things as above: It is never too late. If you haven't read any, you can start one now.
14. Where do you see yourself 3 years from now OR 5 years from now OR 10 years from now?
A responsible citizen of India of age 27 years, 29 years and 34 years respectively.
15. What is your purpose in life?
Apni to jaise taise, aise waise ya kaise kat jayegi....Aap ka kya hoga Janab-e-aali :-D
On a serious note friends, please introspect and have good answers ready for all these questions. Tell your mentor, teacher or friend to interview and grill you. The interviewers dig deep and if you are clear about yourself and the Why's then you improve your chances to clear the interview process.
