Choubey sir:
You wanna ask or tell us something?
I talked about my startup, he asked 2-3 general questions on it then said okay good, and asked me to leave
Experience: Felt like Choubey's sir board require the detailing of things, you should know what you are saying as counters will come to check whether you know things in depth or not, also Random questions stress you out and that I guess is a test particularly to his board. Overall real interview felt more serious compared to Mocks. All male members, and except choubey’s cunning smile all had a poker face
Utility of Mocks: useful only for choice of words, interacting with senior members and 20-30 minutes sustained discussion 18507:16 PM
