TISS Mumbai Afternoon Slot Interview
Date- 19/04/2023
8/8/8 - Total 86 Marks in TISSNET Fresher Non Engineer Male.
BCom 2022 Graduate. St Xavier's Kolkata

Three Professors. 2 Male 1 Female. All Very Senior. The most lovely panel I have ever come across.

Extempore Topic: Is gender equality a myth in Indian Workplace ?

Male 1: Asked me about what's happening in global recession. Why lay offs happening. Asked me few terms of HRM including Glass Ceiling, Industrial Disputes.

Male 2: Asked me about NPA and how to control it. Asked few ethics based HR case studies.

Female: What differentiates between my home town and Mumbai. I said in Mumbai nobody is settling for mediocrity and no matter how much the train is crowded, no-one gives other a chance to stand and nobody misses the train. The entire panel burst into laughter. Then she asked me my learnings in Placement Cell and corporate relations. Then asked me whether HRs were at faulty in Migrant Workers Problem in India in 2020 and its solutions.

Everyone was very senior and made me so so so comfortable that for a moment I forgot I am giving a formal interview as at the end of interview everyone was laughing and joyful,

Few points - Be ready to defend yourself with the DAF form no matter what. All that you have written must be justified in any case. They clearly want a person who is visionary. Not a random guy with topper academics. Be aware of real India is and not sitting inside AC room and wondering what problems are over Google. They literally asked me MNREGA rates and how many hours people work and the effect of work in this heat wave.
