Hey Folks,

Back in January'15, I tried to google ESE interviews, didn't find many. So thought of sharing mine, hope it helps...

My profile: B. Tech Civil Engineering; IIT Kanpur; CPI : 8.1

Hobby: Solving puzzles, Table Tennis

Job: Analyst, Chennai for 6 months (At a firm which offered short term loans in UK)

Panel: Manbir Singh (The board was cordial and tried to get answers in case you were unable to answer perfectly at first go)

Score: 130

Interview

Chairperson: So you were earning good, why did you leave your job? Was the job too hectic?

Me: Answered (Everyone has an answer prepared for this question, I too had one)

Chairperson: What did you do there?

Me: Answered

Chairperson: What are Green field projects?

Me: I am not aware of it.

Panel Member 1: What is sub critical flow?

Me: Sub critical flow is one in which if you throw a stone one celerity moves backward and one forward. (An indirect answer, I agree)

Panel member 1: Is there any member?

Me: Froude's number

Panel member 1: What should be its value and then asked the value for supercritical flow?

Me: Less than 1 for Sub critical flow and greater than 1 for supercritical flow.

Panel member 1: What is hydraulic Jump and where do we find one and where is it used?

Me: Answered correctly (As far as I know)

Panel member 2: So you worked in Chennai, what is the difference between constructing a structure there and in Kanpur.

Me: Saline water which corrodes steel and deteriorates concrete.

Panel member 2: How will you deal with it?

Me: Using sulphate resistant concrete (I realized this was a wrong answer)

Panel member 2: From where does Bisleri get water?

Me: They pump ground water and sell it after packaging.

Panel member 2: Directly, don't they treat it?

Me: Yes, they treat it, using some membrane filters.  (This was the answer they wanted at the first instance).

Panel Member 3: What is the difference between compaction and consolidation?

Me: Answered

Panel Member 3: Why clay and sand behave differently?

Me: Answered

Chairperson: Ok, you may go now.

Me: Stood up and went outside the room (Forgot to say Thank you!)

(I felt that it was impossible to make eye contact with everyone because one might have to rotate one's head 180 degrees to do so. Anyway, good luck with that!)

My preparation for interview

After written exam (June 20, 2014), I never touched civil till mid-December.

I quickly tried to cram the syllabus in a month but was not able to do it comprehensively. As a result, I was quite nervous on the day of interview.

Mock interviews: I did join Madeeasy's mock interviews, gave a mock interview 3 days before the actual one.

I do not think it helped a lot probably because I was not completely prepared then and also I took it very lightly. They do give some good suggestion: For example, they recommended me to restrict my hand movements and I tried my best to so.

I feel joining some mock interview is a good idea but at the same time it is also important to take it seriously.
