I cleared XLRI hr cutoff and have 94.242 percentile. What are the further steps and my chances of conversion?

Last year my brother tried for conversion, so I think sharing his experience might give you a clear idea.

• You must prepare well for general questions such as why MBA, why HR, your strengths and weaknesses.
• GD-PI rounds at XLRI would send a set of questions to the shortlisted candidates. These must be answered carefully because the interview may be based solely on these questions.
• Also, if you answer them correctly, you have a good chance of presenting yourself to the interviewer in a favorable light.
• The GD process would be based on very conventional topics.
• If you have 2+ years of experience, your interview will be based on it.
• Prepare thoroughly, not only for the technical aspects of your job but also for the functional aspects.
• Prepare 2–3 of your favorite or most important engineering subjects if you are an engineer (the same goes for other disciplines as well).
• Keep up with current events and, most importantly, prepare your views on them.

Once the interview shortlists is released, the shortlisted candidates usually form a WhatsApp group to prepare for the GD-PI. Find similar groups on the education network and join them if you get a call.

The Chances of Conversion are possible if you get a call. A good XAT score certainly helps, but before, people have simply cleared the XAT cut-off and made it to the institute. Now you have to stand out among others.
