MDI-GT/PI EXPERIENCE

My gt/pi experience.13th march,gurgaon
Guys, this is my last call of the season…and the only hope for me..though not much chances with a score of just 94.23%ile

Gt-as already said, we were given some pencil rubber paper, pins,matchbox etc
Predicted-15 items
Made-23 items
Accepted-18 items
So a decent performance by the group of 8(1 was absent)

Interview- I was the 3rd one to go

The panel was trying to take a stress interview, will object you on every sentence

p-how was the group task?
Me-enjoyed a lot..lots of ppl coming up with good ideas..and the best part was that we were successful in making items more than we predicted

p-it means u were underestimating yourselves..or were fearful
me-madam, we wanted to set some realistic target..and as the company beats the market expectations in financial resuls, so did we.we beat our own expectations..adding to that I was aware of my potential..but not of the whole group..and once we started making products, we thought that the group has more potential

p-so why hr?
me-told bout attrition rates figures globally and in india, increasing workforce, maintaing them, future is going to be war of talent..+ that there r very few ppl opting for hr and very few good b- schools offer specialization in HR

p-like?
Me-xlri,tiss,scmhrd,mdi

p-also imi and imt offer that
me-I was not aware of it

p-why hr after engineering?
Me—told bout my inerest to go into manufacturing sector(btw I m an electrical engineering fresher)like abb and l&t..there the recruiter or the hr person should know what the company wants and what the prospective employee should be like
Told that the reason for attrition is that the candidate feels that he is more capabe of doing something better than this kind of job profile…so that’s a challenge hr manager is facing

p-hr is being outsourced..so less scope?
me-said hr managers are still required and ppl are ignoing it coz of the more glossy field of finance or marketing..so there is supply demand mismatch…nd also I m capable to be selected in a good company even if requirement is less

p-2 saal mein aisa kya sikhaa denge ki hr ki duniya palat doge?
Me-told that I had a talk with mdi seniors ..they r already working in their 2nd live project during course..so lots to learn…and the change can take place once I enter into the profession..only then I can comment on that.no reaction from panel)

p-u like reading?
Me-yes..both fiction n non fiction

p-ur top 3-4 novels
me-google stor ,made in America, lee Iacocca,games people play

p-ur fav?
Me-google story

p-why?
Me—inspiring, innovative ideas…blah blah

p-name some top companies with good hr policies
me-according to ET 500, TCS, bharati and P&G wre the top 3 companiess

said a quote from P&G’s president-If u take away all buildings and money and leave only our employees, we can build the entire ystem in a decade, but if u take away our people, we cannont build thae system again in lifetime

that’s all..thank you
