Adjusted R-squared accounts for the number of predictors, while R-squared does not, potentially leading to misleading interpretations.
R-squared measures the proportion of variance explained by the model, but it can increase with more predictors, even if they are irrelevant.

For example, i...

Interview Preparation Tips
Experience: No negative marking, just go for simple aptitude preparation. If anyone wants to do good aptitude preparation then just go for CAT preparation. Once you have cleared the aptitude test, then everyone is at the same platform.
Round: Group Discussion
Experience: There was 1 partner and 1 senior.
Tips: Panel changes with every round so never expect that if you have a good impression on one of the panelist then it can get you along with the whole process.
Round: Case Study Interview
Experience: Duration was 1 hour.
Which one to choose?
Given: The type of people who’d be attracted to different type of credit cards (business class, middle class)
1. How to advertise these 2 credit cards?
Given: There are bonus options for employee. Bonus increases exponentially after 80 hours.
2. Which card will an employee promote more?
For each of these questions, you have to come up with an answer at the end. Half an hr was given to think about the case and then they call you in to explain for another half an hour.
Tips: Case study was nothing but simply data interpretation.
Round: HR Interview
Experience: 1. It was a bit stressed interview. They keep on asking you why you want to go for consulting or analytics or say why ZS. Long term goals, short term goals. I said Photography and he said: "We want to open a photography school in India, now estimate the no. of students who’d enroll in it."
2. In the whole process, he just wanted to know whether I fit in the group or not. He brought me in my comfort zone. 3. He asked me questions about my internship. One of my intern projects appealed to him because he had worked in that area as well. I was able to connect to him.
4. In the end he asked me if I had any questions for him. Now this last part is very crucial. It shows your interest in their company. Do take time and read everything about the company beforehand and show your interest. This is a very important for them to know you.
Tips: My suggestion is that be cool and don’t be nervous throughout the process.
