Common Misunderstandings – Many of us misinterpret interview questions, assuming they are purely factual or technical. However, our questions are crafted to gauge deeper insights into a candidate’s thought process and suitability for the role.

 

A. The TravClan Interview Process –

1. Aptitude Tests: The initial stage involves aptitude tests that assess a candidate’s fundamental skills and cognitive abilities.
2. Group Discussions: Candidates participate in group discussions to evaluate their ability to communicate, collaborate, and contribute effectively in a team setting.

B. Focus on Thought Process –

1. 1. Scenario-Based Questions: We use scenario-based questions to understand how a particular person approach and solve problems. It’s less about the “correct” answer and more about your reasoning and decision-making process.
   2. Behavioral Questions: These questions help us see how you’ve handled situations in the past, which is indicative of future performance.
   3. Mental Ability Questions – These questions help us gauge your numerical ability in situations where you can’t use external resources and must rely on your mind for quick replies.

 

C. The Role of Your Resume

1. 1. Facts and Experiences: We understand that the resume provides a factual overview of one’s career journey, skills, and achievements, however;
   2. Clarification: Interviewers may probe certain points on resume to clarify any doubts, but the primary focus remains on the individual’s thought process.

D. Holistic Evaluation

1. 1. Combined Feedback: The final decision is based on a comprehensive evaluation of overall performance in aptitude tests and multiple interview rounds.
   2. Collaborative Decision: Our team collectively reviews the feedback to ensure a well-rounded assessment of each candidate.

 

Key Takeaways 

• Understand the Question’s Intent: One should pay attention to the context and intent behind each of the questions asked. The focus should remain on why a particular question is being asked instead of what a “silly question” to ask?
• Demonstrate Your Thought Process: It is always advisable to clearly articulate your reasoning and approach to problem-solving.
• Be Authentic: Best way to deal with an interview is to be you “yourself”. You should always share real life experiences and examples that showcase your skills and mindset.

Lastly, the USP of our interview process is purely based on the philosophy listed above in the key takeaways, aiming to find candidates who are not just skilled but also aligned with our core values and dynamic work culture.
