Firstly there was a online written test conducted by aspiring minds.the online test consisted of aptitude, logical reasoning, verbal and a attention to detail test. Question difficulty range from easy to medium and i think you wont face any difficulty in cracking that. I cleared that round.
Next we were told to come for our case interview in jadavpur university, Kolkata and it was a pool campus comprising of three very reputed colleges after one week.
When we reached there we were told that first there will be a group discussion, which we didn't expect as we thought next round would be the case interview. Nevertheless group discussion took place after some time. My group discussion topic was NET NEUTRALITY. The other topics in GD were "will e commerce bubble will burst".
