The Alumni Mock Interview is a placement-readiness initiative of the Department of Statistics and Data Science, organised through the Placement and Alumni Cell to familiarise students with professional recruitment processes and industry expectations. Alumni working with reputed organisations such as Bosch, VISA, IHX, and Tiger Analytics engage with students through simulated interview sessions, providing them with an opportunity to experience realistic corporate interview scenarios and understand professional interview etiquette. 
The initiative provides students with personalised feedback on technical knowledge, behavioural responses, communication skills, and overall interview performance. Through direct interaction with experienced alumni, students gain greater awareness of recruiter expectations, identify areas for improvement, and develop confidence for placement interviews. The initiative also strengthens the alumni–student mentoring network while creating a meaningful bridge between academic learning and industry requirements.
