Overall interview process:
- The interview was held on Microsoft teams (virtual process due to pandemic). There was only one interview, it included both technical as well as HR questions. My interview went for around 30 minutes. The interview panel consists of two members, one from technical and one from HR.
- Technical and HR questions were asked randomly.
- Note: This year GD was not conducted due to the virtual interview process. Instead of GD \'allocution\' was conducted at the end of the interview, it is expected to speak for about 2 minutes and miscellaneous current topics were given for allocution.
Technical interview:
No core technical questions were asked to toppers! (It depends upon the interviewer).
To me, a majority of questions were from the internship, elective subject, hobbies.
Q1. Overview of ONGC internship?
Q2. What you have learned from the internship?
Q3. Safety measures adopted by the company?
Q4. What practical exposure did you get during the internship?

Q9. Why excess air is required during combustion?
Q10. What is the half-burned coal is called? What will you do with that?
Note: No questions were asked from the final year project.
Tips: 1. Read thoroughly the internship report.
2. Basics of MTO, HTO, FFO, CET are important.
3. Knowledge about software like DWSIM/ASPAN can give you an upper edge.

Q1. Introduce yourself (Internship, hobbies)
Q2. Do you have any weaknesses?
Q3. If given a choice between designing and production, what would you choose?
