Technical Interview is a selection process conducted by some colleges, universities, and institutes for admission to technical and professional courses.

This interview is mainly conducted to check a student's subject knowledge, technical skills, and problem-solving ability.

The interview may include:

• Questions related to the course
• Basic technical concepts
• Solving simple problems
• Explaining a project or practical work (if applicable)
• Answering questions about technical topics

In simple words, a technical interview is conducted to find out whether a student has the knowledge and skills needed to join the course.

Example:

A student applies for a B.Tech course.

During the interview, the teachers ask a few simple questions about Physics, Mathematics, and basic engineering concepts.

They also ask the student to solve a simple problem. Based on the student's answers, the institute decides whether to offer admission.
