- Go through the roles pertaining to the Technical Graduate Course that you will be required to perform in the training period so as to be prepared for any such in-depth question that might be asked.
- If asked about your weakness, try not to trick the interviewers by indirectly stating a strength, for that has been overdone and it is much appreciated if you state an actual mild weakness which you are currently working on.
