At minimum, any candidate from any background having an acceptable percentile will get a call from IIM Ranchi which is currently a part of CAP where common interviews are conducted for some IIMs(Feb-March), after which the results will be out after April end.

Interview Experience :

I received a call for CAP (Common Admission Process), which was being conducted by IIM Udaipur. This process involves a common interview being conducted for 6-8 IIMs ( details can be seen on CAP's official website as IIMs participating in CAP and the conducting IIM keep on changing every year). The process for CAP consisted of a single round of interviews where the panelists thoroughly tested me on management fundamentals ( I am a BBA graduate and a fresher). The interview revolved around my academics, extracurriculars, current affairs, and my views on some hotly debated topics of that time. Preparation for interviews would consist of being prepared with the current topics, major events that took place in the last year, and a clear know-how of MBA. Knowing the reason for choosing MBA and being prepared with basic interview questions and GK would be a plus.

Remarks:

Fantastic college, facilities, atmosphere, faculty and peer network. Only disadvantage that the campus faces is that it is located in Jamshedpur, so it means a fair bit of travel to reach there from Mumbai, Delhi, Bangalore or Hyderabad.

My overall remarks about this college is good. however I just want to give one suggestion that it should grow its infrastructure as space available is not much. for example play ground is there but very small and library is attached with computer lab.
