I applied through college or university. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at General Motors (GM) (Allahabad) in Sep 2015
Interview
The process started with an online test of 10 Reasoning questions which were probably advanced level from my assessment. The next round was a group discussion on a non-technical topics (something about success and education). The interview panel was made up of two HR personnel, one person from a techno-commercial profile and one from manufacturing. The text-book HR questions viz. 'If we don't offer the profile of your choice?', 'Location/working hour preferences', 'Future ambitions' etc. were all there. There were only a few very basic technical questions. My area of interest is Fluids. There was a question on Siphon action, one on pumps used in ACs and a very simple gear train problem. There were questions about my outlook on the automobile industry.
