Aryaka Networks Recruitment Drive @ BLR, July 3 2013

Are Group Discussions better for screening a large pool of candidates?? If you asked this question to any of us here at Freshersworld, we would all answer “Yes” because we proved it through a recent drive held in Jain College, Bangalore.

The company was Aryaka Networks and we faced quite a challenge in conducting assessments for over 600 candidates. After quite a bit of brainstorming, we came up with a fool-proof plan- Conduct the assessment for the candidates by means of a Group Discussion.

For those of you who are not aware, group discussions, as the name suggests are discussions among participants who have agreed/disagreed on a particular topic. Some of the topics chosen were India overcoming China, Are women mangers better etc.

Let’s talk a little bit about the client. Aryaka Networks is the world’s first cloud based WAN Optimization Company. They had around 12 openings for freshers (2012/13) offering a package of 4 lacs and above. The opening was for Business Development Executives where the candidates would be expected to develop qualified leads for Aryaka.

The openings for MBA Freshers in India are low when compared to B.E/B.Tech Freshers. The hiring ratio of MBA Graduates is to BE/B.Tech Fresher is 1:20.  After conducting around 20 group discussions with around 30 candidates in each team,  candidates was shortlisted for the Face 2 Face Interview.

We all at Freshersworld.com are waiting for the dates of final Face 2 Face Interview. To keep updated log on to www.freshersworld.com.
