Interview advice
Going for the Mechanical Engineer role at Centre for Artificial Intelligence and Robotics, IIT Mandi? A few things that help freshers walk in prepared:
- Revise the fundamentals of your branch and be ready to connect one academic or final-year project to a real-world application.
- It is fine not to know something — say how you would find the answer. Freshers are hired for how they think, not for knowing everything already.
- Use STAR for "tell me about a time" questions — Situation, Task, Action, Result — so your story stays clear and short.
- Keep answers tight and on-point; avoid rambling or personal topics like religion, politics, relationships or family.
- Arrive 10 to 15 minutes early (not an hour), and carry a printed CV, a valid ID and any certificates.
