Preparing for a technical interview: design, quality and production roles

What Chennai and Tamil Nadu employers ask in technical interviews for design, quality and production engineers, and how to prepare.

Know your own projects deeply

Most technical questions start with something on your CV. Be ready to draw the part, explain the process and say exactly what you decided.

Design roles

Expect a tool test in SolidWorks, Creo or AutoCAD, questions on GD&T and tolerance stack-up, and a discussion of material selection. Bring sample drawings with client details removed.

Quality roles

Prepare 8D and why-why examples from real complaints, the 7 QC tools, SPC basics and the core tools (APQP, PPAP, FMEA, MSA, SPC) if you are in auto.

Production roles

Talk through how you run a shift, how you track OEE and how you handled a breakdown or a manpower shortage. Numbers from your own line make answers credible.

Questions to ask

Ask about the product mix, shift pattern, team size and what success looks like in the first six months. It shows you are serious about the role.
