We have compiled some of the WAT topics asked last year in the MHRM admission process. However the topics are expected to vary largely this year. Please be prepared for topics which are abstract or based on current affairs (social, business, defence, technology etc.) or basic HR topics.
Last Year WAT Topics:
Communal Violence in India
Digital India
Indian Youth: Confident or Confused?
Why doesn’t an Indian University feature in the list of top universities of the world?
Social Media and Privacy Concerns
Diversity in Workplace
Importance of Employee Welfare Schemes
Some of my Interview Questions (MHRM 2018-20):
Introduce yourself.
Why HR?
Why MHRM?
Why IIT Kharagpur?
Where is your hometown?
Why do you want to come all the way from your hometown to Bengal?
Why do you think you can become a good HR?
Will you work for the employees or for the company? (Some situational questions followed)
Next, I was asked basic statistics (This largely depends on the interviewer) – Why Is Standard Deviation always positive?
Was asked to plot mean, median, mode for certain data sets. After plotting, the interviewers made changes in value n asked me how it would affect the mean, median and mode.
I had a psychology professor in my panel - He asked questions like what makes me happy? What are the things I value the most in life etc.
The last couple of questions were – How can I contribute to the course? What is that one thing that would distinguish me from others and what can I do different for MHRM and IIT Kharagpur.
Though I wasn’t asked current affairs, other students were asked questions on current affairs or work experience or questions related to what they have studied during their graduation.
Please be prepared for basic HR, work ex, graduation and current affairs related questions. All the best!!
