I applied through college or university. The process took 1+ week. I interviewed at ALSTOM (Chennai) in Sep 2025
Interview
First, we had an online test that mainly consisted of aptitude questions. After that, we had a one-on-one technical interview where they asked basic mechanical engineering questions like the laws of thermodynamics, along with questions from our resumes. Candidates were then shortlisted for the HR round. In the HR interview, they asked typical behavioural questions such as why we want to join Alstom and whether we’re open to relocating. After this stage, 12 students were shortlisted, and following another round of internal filtering—based on criteria we weren’t informed about—they finally selected 6 candidates.
