Managerial
This is our CEO trying to sound funny. Make sure to laugh loudly at his not-so-funny jokes!
HR Discussion
Be ready for the 'Where do you see yourself in 25 years?' kind of questions! But don't worry - even answers like 'Hopefully not in HR' will be accepted with a laugh!
Note: Logical round performance will matter most for Non-CS candidates. CS/IT/IS stream candidates that do badly in the coding round will not go further despite stellar performance in other areas. Typically, scores below 50/72 or 74/105 will not be considered for the next round.
Extra Note: If that growl/bark/bite condition made you smile, we're already great minds thinking alike.
