Campus recruiters take to riddles for best hires
Mint Mumbai
|December 04, 2024
Interviews at IITs are going beyond aptitude tests and technical rounds
It's time for riddles at IIT campus placements!
Here goes: There are X number of people standing in a circle. The first one kills three, the second one kills four and so on. Who would be the last one standing?
That's the question a financial firm asked students at a campus placement at one of the oldest Indian Institutes of Technology (IITs) in India.
And it does not matter if you do not follow cricket. Your interviewer can ask why there are 11 players in each team in one of the most popular games in the country.
This season, interviews at IITs are going beyond mere aptitude tests and technical rounds. Recruiting companies are changing tack and grilling students over multiple rounds of out-of-the-box questions to find out if they have the right fit for the high compensation on offer.
