      Difficult interview

      Interview

      Very Rigorous and highly technical. Recruitment process involves 2 stages: written exam followed by an interview. Out of the two stages, the latter is the most important process for the selection. The aspirant needs a very thorough preparation for cracking the interview. One has to be extremely careful while answering the interview questions.

      Question 1

      There is no particular syllabus. It really depends on the candidate's past degree(s), research training(s) and/or job experience(s). Thus, the questions vary from each and every candidate.
