The first round
The first round is a generic aptitude test. However mugging up vocabulary will not help in this case, because you have to derive the contextual meaning of the word from the given passage. And the English section really matters in your final result. To prepare for this round you can just go about i a similar manner like you would for any other aptitude test. And no mugging up will help.
The second round however is quite different from other companies. It involves a case study. And it needs special preparation. However they give you a gap 2-3 days after the result of the written round so you will have ample time to prepare for the case study. So your first focus should be to get past the first stage.
The Case Study Round
The Case Study Round is simple as well as tricky at the same time. To clear this round you must
1) first and foremost be confident about yourself, no matter how many good debaters or speakers are their in you group. Don't doubt yourself and feel that just because you have not done MUN's and Youth Parliaments you cannot speak well. In the end it all depends on how you perform at that moment and not how good you have been all along.
2) Understand the problem statement clearly. The message is simple to show the ability to solve any problem you must first demonstrate how well you understand the problem itself. So the key is UNDERSTAND THE PROBLEM....!!!!
3) If you are the first speaker begin by explaining the problem statement.
4) Give others a chance to speak. If someone in the group is trying and yet not able to speak you can request the group to give everyone a chance, this will demonstrate good leadership skills.
5) Use proper keywords when necessary, words like Prioritize and Organize give you an edge over the others, make sure you use them wherever they apply.
6) Try to not repeat what others said or just say the same thing in different words. And in case nothing new comes to mind try agreeing with others and supporting them. NOD YOUR HEAD slightly while listening to other group members.
And to get a taste of how best you can answer the questions at the end of your case study you should refer to

Personal Interview
You need to be through with the job description before entering the interview room. Questions would depend on the profile you have opted for. And in line with the job expectations. So it is everything that matters.
1) Questions such as tell me about yourself, you strengths and your weakness must be all thought of beforehand and answers well prepared, no matter how good a speaker you are, when you enter that room the stress you take in may make you nervous and hence lead to a poor performance.
2) Don't try to exaggerate your projects, answer honestly. And if you don't know the answer to any question you must say "I DON'T KNOW", they do not want experts, they want honest students who can be trained to perform better.
And remember if you have made it this far you surely deserve to be the one who also gets selected. No one is better than you. They do not consider your marks or how many debates you have participated in. Show them you want to be a part of the organisation and are determined to try you best for it.
