Setting up of the 1.3 PetaFlop high-performance computing facility and data center is going to change the scene of computation based research work in India, an IIT Kharagpur proclamation said, including that the MoU was signed on March 12.

With the developing significance of high-performance computing in recent research, data protection, healthcare and so forth, such technology as the one being worked at IIT Kharagpur will turn into a core factor in different research areas, the announcement said.

IIT Kharagpur Director Prof P Chakrabarti said the activity will be embraced at the Center for Computational and Data Sciences, situated at the institute campus and large scale computational support will be given to the candidates working on a research-based project and occupied in various territories of national significance.

The technology is hope to come up in the next 3-4 months with the work to be carried in three periods of – ‘ assembling, assembling and manufacturing and design and manufacturing,’ the announcement cited Director General, C-DAC, Dr Hemant Darbari as saying.

The interviewer is looking for a person who can fit into the company’s ethos, its culture and more importantly if the candidate can deliver. For instance, Sneha Reddy, a B. Tech Computer Science (CS) graduate from IIT Hyderabad, bagged a huge pay package of Rs 1.2 crore from Google this year. It is the highest pay package offered at IITH since its commencement in 2008. While her batch mate who topped the class got a package of Rs 35 lakh. Is he anyway inferior to her? Not at all, but what clicked in Sneha’s favour was she was being herself and that her passion lay in research and she was not looking out for a software job.

Always passionate about research, Sneha, even while in college applied for research projects and completed many. Google was looking out for someone to do research on a project on Artificial Intelligence and she fit the bill.

The common mistake one does is to rattle off a list of academic accomplishments, what is crucial is to also let the panel know about your interests and hobbies.

Sameer, a final year B Tech Computer Science (CS) student was filled with all joy, when he received two offer letters in the campus interviews conducted by two renowned multinational companies (MNCs) in his college. The two MNCs that he got job offers deal with two different processes in software technology. One company works on cloud computing and the other on software testing tools.

He attended both the interviews with a presumption that it would give a great boost to his confidence to face interviews after the completion of his course.

When asked why he attended interviews for two different companies, he said “I wanted to understand the prospects available in both the organisations. I was candid in giving answers to the questions posed by the interview panels”. He also said that he chose to be associated with cloud computing organisation keeping the growth prospects and scope to learn things in the innovative field.

Rahul, another final year electronics and telecommunication engineering (ECE) student completed three months internship in a reputed organisation, and was offered a full-time job at the same organisation after the completion of his course.

He said, “I strictly followed what my professor told me in the mock interviews, and what made me unique in the competition for the job was my brief internship experience”.

Swathi, a final year MBA student emerged victorious in a campus interview conducted by a reputed bank. She was skeptical about whether she would succeed, as her fellow students to have similar levels of skills and expertise.

What made her succeed in the interview was she let them know about her hobbies and interests including her interest in learning foreign languages and dance, which helped her to develop a good rapport with the interviewer on a more personal level.

Kartheeban, an engineering graduate in metallurgical engineering from the Government College of Engineering, Salem joined an IT company but the bosses who heard him during the interview about his social activities, later made him the head of the Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) wing. Kartheeban was overjoyed as he always wanted to do something in the social service space. Moral of the story: Let the interviewer know who you are and what your likes are.

TIPS

• Do not rattle out a list of your academic accomplishments; your resume has them already. Instead, strike a conversation by first telling them about your interests,
• Do not show off and say that you can do anything. It is better to do one thing perfectly than do ten things indifferently,
• When you boast there are chances that the interviewer would want to identify your personal weaknesses,
• Be truthful, be genuine. I am ready to learn and should be able to with a little help, goes a long way. Employers want people who have integrity,
• Do your homework on the company. Employers love to know that the candidate they are interviewing knows about the company. If you could suggest solutions to ailing problems, which can really boost your chances of getting selected.

B.Tech Program in Computer Science and Design

With internet pervading all spheres of life most industries are increasing their web presence and interactivity with stakeholders and customers. This has also increased the demand for good and interactive design thinking. Even the large software service providers are demanding skilled professionals to create interactive designs for their IT products and services for a better and enhanced user experience.

The program has a small set of core courses in CS and Design, and many electives which can be taken from CS as well as Design and Digital Media. This enables the students to build a program most suitable for them. The program will prepare students to work in the IT industry as well as digital media industry like gaming, animation, virtual/augmented reality, etc. The program will also allow students, who want to pursue higher studies, to take up higher studies in CS/IT or in Design.

B.Tech Program in Computer Science and Social Sciences

Information technology and computing are playing an important role in many social science subjects, and in some cases, like social media, have even merged together with the concepts of social science.

Also, computing techniques are now widely used to further understand the aspects of social sciences and humanities. The in-depth knowledge of social sciences enriches the solution creators and is more likely to result in acceptable solutions which can be adopted. Many IT product companies now regularly employ designers and social scientists to help in these aspects. This unique program, BTech in Computer Science and Social Sciences (CSSS), aims to develop computer science engineers with a strong understanding of relevant social science disciplines. The program will also allow a student to pursue further studies in social sciences, besides allowing them to pursue higher studies in CS/IT, as well as many interdisciplinary programs. As it is a 4-year programme, it will satisfy the requirements of almost all higher studies programs in India as well as overseas.
