HireSetu's note
Two filters decide the shortlist
Fresh graduates only, and the listing is firm about it: a mechanical engineering bachelor's with no prior full-time job. That rules out anyone a year or two into a career, whatever their CAD skills.
The other filter is CAD at working level in both tools. AutoCAD is a stated requirement; SolidWorks is spelled out as part, assembly and drawing modules, which goes well past sketching. A candidate who can model a part but has never built an assembly with mates or generated a dimensioned drawing from it will find this heavy going. Analysis software is the only thing marked good to have; the rest of the list sits at understanding level.
Twelve months, heavy on documentation
The contract is a fixed one year in Mumbai, and the substance is paperwork. Figure on 2D drawings, 3D models, BOMs, technical specifications, work instructions and SOPs, plus keeping versions straight for ISO 9001. Design is support to the new product development team, with prototyping, testing and validation mixed in.
Manufacturing, quality, supply chain, service and outside vendors all feed the same release, and there are supplier and site visits, so it isn't desk-only work. Ask early what happens when the twelve months end.
Revise this and bring a model
GD&T turns up in design reviews and tolerance analysis, so know flatness, position, datums and how to stack tolerances across a small assembly. Add the basics of machining, sheet metal and moulding, and how a BOM is structured: parent-child levels, revisions, quantities.
Have one SolidWorks project you can open and walk through cold: a part, an assembly with mates, and a drawing pulled from the model with a title block and BOM table. That is the workflow this listing describes, and talking about it in the abstract won't carry the conversation.
