written version of interview we are happy to have Miss Aditi Pathrabe, who
openly discuss the frequently asked questions related to internship process,
pre placements and interview at Reliance Industries for Texile Engineers.
Here it goes..
Aditi-For me Textile was by chance is not by choice. Back
then I choose Textile because I had no other choice so I took a chance but now
after four years I feel it is not that bad of a choice as a career option
because there are many new things to explore in this field with numerous job
opportunities in different sectors. Textile is everywhere in many different
sectors. You will find applications of Textile
and one can explore these applications only after getting into the
field.
Yash-How will you describe your journey in the field of
textile so far?
Aditi-My journey in the field of textile has been full of
ups and down so far. Back then textile was completely new field for me ith all
the new subjects and new concepts which were
very different from what we had studied before. So it was difficult
initially but once I became familier with the subjects and the terms it
eventually became easy for me to understand. Basically, it is a process and
once you get this process and the flow then everything seems easy.
Yash-How did you manage to get an internship at Reliance
Industries? Can you briefly tell us about the selection process and about
aptitude test etc?
Aditi-Reliance had visited our campus for hiring interns
which was when I applied for the internship. There was a selection procedure to
be followed. The selection processs has 2 stages:
- First was the aptitute test and
- Second was the personal interview.
Aditi-The interview are taken based on the division in
which internship is offered. During our time, we had two separate interviews
for two different divisions, these interviews are completely technical so
brushing up your basics is very important. You nedd to be through with the
concepts like yarn numbering system, physical properties of fibers, testing
methods. Also you must be aware of what the company is manufaturing, their
products and basic information about the company. Then questions are asked
based on your previous internships ,projects and also on your resume. Reliance
industries looks for candidate with good technical knowledge and who is clear
with his/her basic concepts.
Yash-Can tell us about the post joining formalities and
give us an insight into the projects you were part of during your tenure?
Aditi-There are no post joining formalities as such. We
were alloted with the projects under the guidance of the mentor and that is it.
In my project I had to do a lot of desk research and a thorough study on
man-made fiber production subjects. I had a to gather a lot of information for
my project for which I had to made calls to various manufacturers and dealers.
Also a site visit was arranged for the same during my tenure. So you get a good
exposure and you get to learn a lot of new things.
Yash-To sum things up, can you tell us on what grounds
you were offered a pre placement offer (PPO) by Reliance Inustries?
Aditi-During my internship, we had a mid term review and
a final review i.e presentation based on which our performace in the course of
internship was evaluated. So based on these two reviews and our performance we
were offered the PPO.
Yash- Thank you for your precious time! I hope our
viewers found it helpful. It was indeed a pleasure having you on The TexSphere
Show !
