FACING AN INTERVIEW (MECHANICAL QUESTIONS INCLUDED)


10 Most common interview blunders you should never commit!

Interview mistakes & blunders
The reminiscence of the first interview from the past,still makes us nervous and goosebumps starts to show up all over our body. We sit there nervously in front of our interviewer sweating and shivering like hell screwing it all in every possible manner. The basic thing is interviews can go really wrong really fast!
Sometimes, you can knock yourself out of contention for the job before you even get a chance to introduce yourself. It could be wearing the wrong interview clothes or talking on the phone or chewing gum or even having beer cans fall out of your backpack at the worst possible time.

Here are top 10 uncanny interview blunders that you should avoid in the future: 


1. Not carrying a copy of your CV


Expecting the employer to have a copy of your CV is probably the worst excuse a fresh graduate can give at a job interview. Bring any documents that an employer may want to see. A small leather folder adds a professional look and should contain extra copies of your resume, a current list of references, portfolio samples – if necessary and identification documents.

2. Showing up late

Arriving late to the interview is one of most common blunders. Although some employers will still follow through with the courtesy of conducting the interview, their minds are already made up about not hiring a tardy employee.

3. Dressing inappropriately

The faded jeans or sequined dress may have won you a beauty pageant on campus, but when you enter the professional world, you have to pay special attention to your attire.
Dressing up inappropriately includes avoiding casual attire, making bold or trendy fashion statements and appearing unkempt. Some of the most common blunders are wearing short pants, sandals, T-shirts, too much jewellery, wrinkled clothing, unpolished shoes and poorly groomed hair and fingernails.

4. No Homework done
Most job-seeking freshers do not have the slightest clue about the organisation they have applied to or their role with the prospective employer. Before sitting infront of an interviewer, candidate must be aware of the whereabouts of that particular organization.

5. Don’t lie
Lying about your credentials, experience, education or skills should be avoided at any cost. It's very easy to verify information and conduct a reference check. Think of the consequences when the deception is discovered. It usually ends in dismissal or a reprimand at the least. Not only is that, but the damage to your reputation with that employer probably not reversible.

6. Dull Body Language

Wrong body language can blow your interview. Poor eye contact, sitting with your arms folded across your chest, fidgeting, foot tapping, staring out the window or constantly checking your watch can send the wrong signals to an interviewer. It's normal to be nervous but try not to let it show. Instead, try to relax, breathe deeply and be your best self. Don't let your confidence fall down to a level from where you feel choked up.

7. No cellphones allowed 

Employers don't look favourably on candidates with more important business to conduct than the interview taking place.. Don’t leave your cellphone on during an interview. Calling, texting etc is strictly prohibited while being interviewed. If you must be available for emergencies, set the cellphone to a silent mode and ignore it until the interview is over.

8. Negativity
Try not to disparage or make negative remarks about a current or former employer. They make have treated you badly, you may not have parted on good terms or they could be the worst company to work for in the world. No matter what the truth is, avoid the temptation to commiserate. A new employer is a.) not interested and b.) may think you will do the same thing if they hire you and you leave their company.

9. Don’t be perky

Any kind of discussions on salary, benefits, vacations and sick leave must not be brought up unless the interviewer initiates it. The interview is all about you, the company, your skills and what you bring to the table. Even if the interviewer broaches the subject, try to answer briefly and redirect the conversation to your qualifications. The only goal of the interview process is to secure a job offer. Once an offer is made, there will be ample time to negotiate the details before you accept the position.

10. Being Rude

Apparently, the first impression of a candidate is registered when s/he approaches the reception.While some of us may dismiss the front desk staff or the doorman as the least influential in the selection process, there are times when your behaviour towards the office personnel can be held against you.


The 5 most ridiculous placement interview questions ever!


It's the placement season again! You'll be noticing a lot of those big companies hogging on the campuses all across the country to recruit the "brightest minds" in India! 

Have you started preparing for the aptitude tests, technical tests, technical interviews and all that? Well, ideally you should be quite confident by now about your preparations. 

But, there's one more thing you should prepare yourself for! Or maybe, you can't prepare yourself for this, you just gotta experience it first hand. And that is, some really, really weird (read:obvious) placement interview questions that would surely take you by surprise.

So, here are the 5 most annoying interview questions ever and a likely response you might wanna give!

Q.) Tell me something about yourself that isn't written your the resume!

Dude! Seriously? Thing first thing i did as soon as i sat down for this interview, was giving you my resume! Because everything, every damn thing that you need to know about me is written there. Just read it once for gods sake! You'll give me a job based on that!

Okay, so would you give me a job if i tell you how many girls/boys i've slept with? No, right? So just read this one A4 sheet of paper that i got exclusively for you!

Q.) Why do you want to work for us/ What interests you about out company?

Duh! You're hiring, i'm looking for a job! Works well that way, right?

On second thoughts, is this the part where you expect me to go on and on and on to praise your company, tell you how obliged i would be to work for it, how it was my dream to work for you guys and all that sh*t i crammed up last night? 

My parents have invested a lot of money and i have have invested my full 4 years! I just need a job! Doesn't matter if it's you or anyone else! Peace?

Q.) Where do you see yourself in five to ten years from today? 

Good lord! Am i an astrologer? Do i read tarot cards or something? NO! I don't. Get it? 

I don't even have an idea about what i'll be doing over this weekend and here, you're asking me about the next five to ten years.

But, just for the record, i was told be prepared for this. So, here it is: I see myself at a great post in your company earning a handsome salary and living life king size. Happy? That's exactly what the five people who came in before me must've told you, right?

Please stop asking this question man! 

Q.) Why hasn't anyone hired you yet?

Because of this very reason! (Go and punch him in the face)

I don't know! They didn't tell me before asking my lazy a** to leave! I tried, didn't get through. That's it. Is it that big a deal? Do you want me to keep pondering over this?

Sorry! i chose to pick myself up and try again better next time and that's why i'm setting here.

Q.) What is your biggest weakness?

Did anyone tell you that I'm the one looking for a job here? And still, you're expecting that I'll tell you how hyper i get when things aren't getting done or how i just leave things in the middle when i fail after trying them a few times?

Oh wait, i do have a weakness! Please don't make me work on the nights with a full moon, as i have a tendency to turn into a werewolf sort of a thing! 

Common! Stop spreading such dumbness! I would never tell you my weaknesses only because i have to get this job! ANYHOW!

So, these are some questions that when asked, can annoy you to the core! 


The following were the most common mechanical questions asked frequently in an interview 

The top 5 time management tips for every Engineering student!


The top 5 time management tips for every Engineering student!


Let's get this straight! During the entire life as a college student, one of the most difficult things is time management. You have so much to do in the limited amount of time you have.

You have to attend you classes, fulfill social commitments, spend time with your family, work out in the gym and many more of the million such things that might be on your priority list.

Trying to manage so many things at the same time can leave you mixed up between stuff if you don't have a proper schedule for all such things. 

So, today we list the five most important time management tips that would ensure that you're able to give time to each and every thing, that's important for you.
  • Always, always maintain a to-do list!
There might be a billion things that you need to do in the coming 24 hours of your life. While you're at something, chances are that there would be at least one or two things that would slip out of your mind. So, we advice that you maintain a to-do list so that you have a track of all the things that's you've completed.

That way, you won't miss out on the things that are yet to be done.
  • Compromising on your sleep is a big NO
No matter how much stuff still remains to be done, always make sure that you have time to catch some sleep. Even is your body is still raring to go, a good sleep would ensure that you have a fresh mind to complete the remaining things. 

Resting for a while would make you look back at the developments of the day and probably even some ideas for the remaining stuff. 
  • During the exam time, start prioritizing things
Ideally, there shouldn't be such a situation where you have to leave out stuff due to lack of time. But, if there is, you should give priority to the courses that have more importance in your final results.

It can happen that you don't meet all the deadlines that you've set for yourself. If you can foresee such a situation, try breaking down stuff into smaller pieces and you would see things becoming a bit simpler. 
  • While you're attending the lecture, concentrate all your attention in the class
Most of us never pay attention during the lecture and are busy doing something or the other. As time passes by, you would realize that things would have been much better if for those 30-35 minutes, you could've payed attention to the teacher and not anything else. 

So, start paying attention while you're sitting in a lecture and try to gain the maximum in that time. That way, the time you take while going through the same stuff again during the exams, would be reduced buy a big margin.
  • Time management during the exam!
Well, how many times have you seen students screaming that the time was too less to complete the paper! To make sure that you never face such a situation, follow one simple rule: Start solving questions that carry the maximum weightage first. That way, you're giving yourself a chance to maximize your score. And during the last few minutes, you'll be left with those questions that carry little weightage and can be answered
 

Improving English And Removing Those Common Mistakes – For Students & Professionals


A Guide To Improving English And Removing Those Common Mistakes – For Students & Professionals


english improving guide and removing common mistakesSuman Bhatia, a senior HR with one of the top companies in India writes exclusively for us . She shares her insight on how students and professionals in India make common grammatical mistakes without even realizing  Here is what she has to say--
Over the last 15 years I’ve interacted extensively with students and professionals from all around India and have noticed a number of common English grammar issues both in verbal and written communications. These forms and patterns of expression while normal and well understood in India violate English grammar rules.

I was recently involved in a program at a US based client where the primary delivery item was documentation (+2,000 pages). As the project progressed the client became increasingly unhappy and hostile towards our team’s work because of the readability of the documents. This started a negative spiral; the client’s unhappiness and frustration with the language led to a reduced desire on their part to participate in document reviews which put the project behind schedule. The primarily India based team was asked to work harder and produce additional documents more quickly. These were also difficult to read and more so because they were produced under stress.
In the end through a lot of hard work on everyone’s part we were able to complete the documents and somewhat ameliorate the customers attitude. The project acted as a catalyst for me to write the following guide to improving English. The language problems encountered in the project are not unique. Similar problems can be found even on this and other Indian website and in our email exchanges.
One of the challenges in writing correct English in India is that engineers are immersed in a world where the normal forms of communication regularly violate English grammar rules. Here I am pointing out some common mistakes that we all make inadvertently and how to rectify them--

Common problematic phrases and preferred alternatives 
  • Detail out”, “Details”; use describeidentify, …
  • is not matching”; use “does not match
  • it is recommend to xxx”; use “it is recommended that
  • can be referred from”; use “may be found in”, “is located in”, …
  • information like”; use “information such as
  • comprises of the” or “comprises the”; use either “is composed of” or “consists of”.
  • explains on”; use “describes” or “explains” depending on context.
  • basis”; use based upon
  • huge”; this is often used to describe file sizes but should generally not be used as it is associated with overly dramatic statements. “Large” is a better word but it is probably best to give a specific definition of the size such as “files larger than 1GB”.
  • for e.g.”, use either “for example, …” or “e.g.” “E.g.” itself means “for example” so the term “for e.g.” is redundant.
  • updation”; this is not a word, use update or updated as appropriate.
  • revert” use “please reply” or “please provide an update.” “Revert” means “to return to a former condition, practice, subject, or belief.” Using “revert” as a request to reply to an e-mail or a request for information is inconsistent with this definition. Please note although revert is frequently used incorrectly in India this does not make it correct.
  • Use “feedback” instead of “feedbacks.
  • Use “please do what is required” instead of “do the needful”. “Please do the needful” is often the only remark in forwarded e-mails. We should be more specific as to what action(s) we want the reader to take and by when (sometimes it is not obvious).
  • Use “lessons” or “knowledge” instead of learning(s). Avoid using the word learning or learnings in the context of lessons.
Correct usage: No data migration will be required for the process that is being implemented.

Incorrect usage: No data migration would be required for the process that is being implemented. 
Use click instead of click on.

Correct usage
Click the OK button or Click OK.

Incorrect usage
Click on the OK button.

Buzzwords
Note, a good rule of thumb is to try and avoid the repetition of a word within the next three lines.
Overused buzzwords: key, leverage, … 
“MS Word” Tips
  • Be sure to create a standard Word template that meets your requirements at the outset of each project. This will ensure that all documents have a consistent look and feel.
  • When the first row of a table is used as a header it should be set to repeat if the table crosses page boundaries (select row, click on format -> table properties -> rows -> select repeat row as header on the top of each page) AND the paragraph attribute “Keep with Next” should be set for the header contents (that way you don’t end up with only the header on the bottom of a page).
  • Blank lines should not be used to create white space between paragraphs and graphics, use paragraph spacing / styles instead.
  • Graphics are frequently scaled disproportionately (i.e. height is 80%, and width is 50% of the original size) making any text in them hard to read as well as distorting the images.
Other Common Issues
  • Sentences are too long. Keep sentence length to an average of 15 to 20 words. Longer sentences are generally harder to read.
  • Frequent shifts from 3rd person (he/she/it/they) to 1st (I/we) and 2nd (you) person. Technical documents should generally be written in 3rd person (he/she/it/they) with very few, if any, exceptions.
  • Incorrect capitalization: Proper nouns and the first word of a sentence should be capitalized. A proper noun is a specific name of a place, a person, or a thing. The first letter of a proper noun is always represented by a capital letter. Examples include:
 Name of the month and day (January, February, April, …)
 Names of companies (Microsoft, Amazon, Nike, …)
 Names of people (John, Mary, Mr. Lee, Tom Jones, …)
 Names of places (Greentown Hospital, City Park, …)
 Title of a person (Dr. Kenny White, President Jimmy Ayusso, Ms. Miri Thomas)
 Names of books, newspapers, plays, … (The New York times, War and Peace, …)
  • Improper use of articles such as “a”, “an”, and “the” (often they are either missing or placed where they are not needed. Below are a couple of examples:
This engagement clearly underlines our commitment and dedicated focus in Texas region … ” should read “This engagement clearly underlines our commitment and dedicated focus in the Texas region …” Note came from a company press release.
This was at heart of the discussion that XXX had with the HR team few months back …” should be “was at the heart of the discussion XXX had with the HR team a few months back”.
  • Use active (he subject of the sentence acts upon something or someone) rather than passive voice (the subject is acted upon). Active voice is usually the correct choice. It is considered to be more powerful and straightforward whereas passive voice often leads to long and confusing sentences. Examples:
Active: I shall always remember my first visit to Mysore
Passive: My first visit to Mysore will always be remembered by me.
  • Avoid using colloquialisms as they are easy to get wrong. For example, the phrase “in a nutshell” meaning to encapsulate into a small package was written as “on a nutshell” in a deliverable. Aside from adding humor to the readers experience it does detract from the message and diminishes the author.
Samples of sentences that don’t express ideas well and suggested changes
Customers are faced with multiple challenges every now and then. The challenge could be of deriving maximum value from the existing IT investments, or moving beyond incident management, supporting a re-engineered or evolving business model, or leveraging technology to create new business models.
The first sentence is a weak and factually incorrect statement. Customers regularly face multiple challenges. The 2nd sentence is nearly double the length it should be and includes incorrect grammar (e.g. “could be of”).
A better version is:
“Our customers face multiple business challenges. These include:
– Improving the ROI on IT investments
– Moving from incident management to a proactive management approach
– Supporting a re-engineered or evolving business 
– The need to use existing IT infrastructure (systems and application) to support new business models.”
Although the above is better, from a written English perspective, I’m sure it could be improved from the standpoint of having the IT challenges more clearly tied to business challenges (customer satisfaction, improved profitability …).
This section explains on the activities performed for migration …” can be better expressed using the following “This section describes the steps required to migrate … “ 
Develop this document by following the design guidelines and in line with the Architecture and the High Level Design Document.
The clause following the first “and” is not a complete sentence. It would be better written as follows:
This document should clearly conform to the design guidelines established by the ICC. The contents should also be aligned with the Architecture and High Level Design documents for the project.
Testing shall be resumed once all the defects agreed are fixed and application is stable. Testing shall be resumed as new repeat test cycle or repeat only the impacted test cases.
The clause “resumed as new report test cycle” creates confusion. How do you resume something yet have it be new?
Testing shall be resumed once all the defects agreed are fixed and application is stable. Testing may also be resumed to repeat a test cycle or retest impacted test cases.
The scope of this document is limited to the system boundaries as defined in the Software Requirement Specification to record the solution approach of the functional, non functional requirements to be addressed in the Project. A brief description of what the System Architecture Document applies to; what is affected or influenced by this document.
The first sentence of the above paragraph is 36 words (twice the recommended length) and consequently difficult to read. It also includes several cases of incorrect capitalization. Below is an improved version.
This document discusses how the solution addresses the functional/non-functional requirements described in the Software Requirements Specification (SRS). It is limited to the system boundaries outlined in the SRS. A brief description of how the system architecture is impacted by the approach which will be taken will also be included.
For UI layer, specify the systems that are interacting with the user to get request and send back response and details of communication with the business layer.
Sentence is too long and uses one too many “ands” (should have been shortened or written as two sentences. Below is a better version.
Specify all systems that interact with users and describe how they communicate with the business layer.
The above sample logical view of the application depicts the components involved along with the connection pointers, thus says how the project is implemented logically.”
The 2nd clause “thus says …” seems a bit awkward. Below is a suggested improvement. Shorter sentences almost always improve readability.
The above sample logical view of the application depicts the components used within a solution and how they are interconnected.
This section focus on what will be work required to executed any work, which is left out purposefully.
This sentence is filled with grammatical errors including “this section focus” (should be “this section focuses”), “what will be work” (should be “what the work entails”), etc. and is not coherent. It should be entirely rethought and rewritten. Below is a suggestion.
This section is used to identify any long-term requirements that are not addressed in the solution and describe how they can be addressed in future releases.
These were just some of many issues that I have noticed. Try and implement all the alternatives present in this guide and you will be on the track to having better and grammatically correct English.
