REPUBLIC OF INDIA
Satyameva Jayate
("Truth Alone Triumphs")
CELEBERATING !
"India is the cradle of the human race, the birthplace of human speech, the mother of history, the grandmother of legend, and the great grand mother of tradition. Our most valuable and most astrictive materials in the history of man are treasured up in India only!" --Mark Twain
If there is one place on the face of earth where all dreams of living menhave found a home from the very earliest days when man began the dream ofexistence, it is India.
- French scholar Romain Rolland.
India conquered and dominated China culturally for 20 centurieswithout ever having to send a single soldier across her border. - Hu Shih(former Chinese ambassador to USA)

@interview
During Your Interview
Be positive. Show openness and make others comfortable by leaning into a greeting with a firm handshake and smile. Show self-confidence.
Make eye contact with the interviewer and answer questions in a clear voice. Work to establish rapport with the interviewer.
Listen. Communication is a two-way street. If you talk too much you will probably miss cues concerning what the interviewer feels is important. Reflect before answering a difficult question. If you are unsure how to answer a question, you might reply with another question. For example, if the interviewer asks you to tell them about yourself, try answering with "Sure. Where would you like me to begin?" This tactic also gives you time to formulate an answer to unexpected questions. Show you want the job. Display your initiative by talking about what functions you could perform that would benefit the organization, and by giving specific details of how you have helped past employers. Present your skills by describing the Situation, Task, Action and Result (STAR). Explore the position. Acceptable off-the-cuff questions include subjects such as job function, responsibilities, team structure, and supervision.
DOs and DON'Ts
Never make negative comments about current or former employers. Do not ask questions that raise red flags. Do not ask questions about money. The employer already knows what you're making and what you're looking to make in your next move. If asked, just reply, "Money, the company and my position are all important. I will give careful consideration to your best offer". Beware of too many questions about benefits. Focusing on your compensation and benefits at this point may cause the interviewer to think you are more interested in helping yourself than in helping the company. If you must ask such questions, make sure the interviewer understands why. Avoid negative body language. An interviewer wants to see how well you react under pressure. Specifically, avoid these signs of nervousness and tension: • Frequently touching your mouth, nose, or glasses • Biting your lip • Tight or forced smiles or posture • Swinging or tapping your foot or leg • Folding or crossing your arms • Slouching or shifting in your chair • Avoiding eye contact or rolling your eyes. After Your Interview Ask for the job. Simply say, "This is an exciting opportunity for me and one in which I know I will excel. What are the next steps"? End the interview with a handshake and thank the interviewer(s) for their time.
Show self-confidence.
Make eye contact with the interviewer and answer questions in a clear voice. Work to establish rapport with the interviewer. Send a thank you note. After the interview, send a brief letter or email to thank the people you met. Remember the 3 B's: Be sure to send one. Be bright. Be brief. Be ready to make a decision. If the interview went particularly well, don't be surprised if they offer you the job on the spot. If you have all the information you need, be prepared to accept or negotiate an offer immediately. That way you can reaffirm your commitment to the company.
