on|y when I make good name |n the soc|ety. I w||| |nvo|ve my se|f |n |nvestment as we|| as
he|p|ng needy

ln our every day llfe we meeL so many people havlng dlfferenL aLLlLude, quallLles and so many such

My mlsLakes and my fallures are also lnsplred me a loL. 1hey encourage me Lo move ln llfe and help me ln
geLLlng success
My ma|n |nsp|rat|on |s my fa||ure and success |n each step of my ||fe. Ia||ure teaches me what
not to do and success teaches me how to do much better way to ach|eve anyth|ng. 8y success I
mean to say sma|| steps to arch|ve towards my goa| and dreams
I am |nsp|red by my dad because he |s a hardworker. 8ecause my grandfather had dead |n my
father ch||dhood and my father strugg|e for these t|me and he never |ake h|s conf|dence. And my

I th|nk I make 2 dec|s|on very toughest |n my ||fe.
I|rst one: dec|s|on was to choose between h|gher educat|on (M.1LCn) and [ob. I choose [ob because gett|ng

23.What |s the d|fference between conf|dence and over conf|dence?
Confldence: knowlng your ablllLles ls confldence.

Cverconfldence: 1hlnklng LhaL you are Lhe only capable person ls over confldence (wlLhouL knowlng Lhe
oLhers poLenLlal, never underesLlmaLe anyone).
Conf|dence:- 8e||ev|ng our se|f |s conf|dence.

Cver Conf|dence:- Neg|ect|ng some one's strength |s over conf|dence
Cn|y d|fference |s the word "CVLk".

Conf|dence - k|ght est|mat|on of my sk|||s and trust myse|f.

Cver-conf|dence - Lxtra est|mat|on of my sk|||s and proud of myse|f.
Conf|dence : I can do th|s work we||.
Cver conf|dence: I am the on|y person to do th|s work we||.
I th|nk conf|dence |s the stepp|ng stone to success, and overconf|dence causes the
fa||ure.
24.What makes you angry?
Anger ls human naLure. We can'L avold lL buL we can able conLrol lL. l geL anger when someone lnLerrupLed ln

good
2S.now do you fee| about work|ng n|ghts and weekends?

people manage
Work|ng at n|ghts and weekends doesn't matter |f the |nterest on the work dom|nates. So f|rst|y I'|| try
to |ove the work
S|r, I am honest|y say|ng I am a fresher f|rst and I do anyth|ng |n my career so I need a p|atform to |earn
and show my ta|ent and hard work|ng capac|ty, so def|n|te|y I w||| do my work at any t|me. I mean. Not a
my work my extra works.
26.now do you def|ne success and how do you measure up to your own
def|n|t|on?
l mean success ls an alLernaLlve word for achlevemenL. When you achleve one ob[ecLlves anoLher goals
geL's ready. Success can'L be measured lL can be en[oyed. lL ls sLepplng sLone for recognlLlon
1o me success |s ne|ther a dest|nat|on nor an ach|evement.Its a constant [ourney of
hardwork,w|||power,pass|on,conf|dence,pos|t|ve att|tude..etc., wh|ch he|ps us to atta|n and accomp||sh
our goa|s and m||estones |n our ||fe.1o me success |s start|ng of new hope and des|re, wh|ch w||| never

Success |s not to earn a b|g amount of money, success |s sat|sfact|on of heart and to g|ve p|easure to the
organ|sat|on, parents and fam||y.

Common interview questions and their probable answers

Review these typical interview questions and think about how you would answer them. Read the
questions listed; you will also find some strategy suggestions with it.

1. Tell me about yourself?
Ans : The most often asked question in interviews. You need to have a short statement prepared in
your mind. Be careful that it does not sound rehearsed. Limit it to work-related items unless instructed
otherwise. Talk about things you have done and jobs you have held that relate to the position you are
interviewing for. Start with the item farthest back and work up to the present.

2. Why did you leave your last job?
Ans: Stay positive regardless of the circumstances. Never refer to a majorproblem with management
and never speak ill of supervisors, co-workers or the organization. If you do, you will be the one
looking bad. Keep smiling and talk about leaving for a positive reason such as an opportunity, a chance
to do something special or other forward-looking reasons.

3. What experience do you have in this field?
Ans: Speak about specifics that relate to the position you are applying for. If you do not have specific
experience, get as close as you can.

4. Do you consider yourself successful?
Ans:You should always answer yes and briefly explain why. A good explanation is that you have set
goals, and you have met some and are on track to achieve the others.

5. What do co-workers say about you?
Ans: Be prepared with a quote or two from co-workers. Either a specific statement or a paraphrase will
work. Jill Clark, a co-worker at Smith Company, always said I was the hardest workers she had ever
known. It is as powerful as Jill having said it at the interview herself.

6. What do you know about this organization?
This question is one reason to do some research on the organization before the interview. Find out
where they have been and where they are going. What are the current issues and who are the major
players?

7.. What have you done to improve your knowledge in the last year?
Try to include improvement activities that relate to the job. A wide variety of activities can be
mentioned as positive self-improvement. Have some good ones handy to mention.

8. Are you applying for other jobs?
Be honest but do not spend a lot of time in this area. Keep the focuson this job and what you can do for
this organization. Anything else is a distraction.

9. Why do you want to work for this organization?
This may take some thought and certainly, should be based on the research you have done on the
organization. Sincerity is extremely important here and will easily be sensed... Relate it to your long-
term career goals.

10. Do you know anyone who works for us?
Be aware of the policy on relatives working for the organization. This can affect your answer even
though they asked about friends not relatives. Be careful to mention a friend only if they are well
thought of.

11. What is your Expected Salary?
A loaded question. A nasty little game that you will probably lose if you answer first. So, do not
answer it. Instead, say something like, That's a tough question. Can you tell me the range for this
position? In most cases, the interviewer, taken off guard, will tell you. If not, say that it can depend on
the details of the job. Then give a wide range.

12. Are you a team player?
You are, of course, a team player. Be sure to have examples ready. Specifics that show you often
perform for the good of the team rather than for yourself are good evidence of your team attitude. Do
not brag, just say it in a matter-of-fact tone. This is a key point..

13. How long would you expect to work for us if hired?
Specifics here are not good. Something like this should work: I'd like it to be a long time. Or As long
as we both feel I'm doing a good job.

14. Have you ever had to fire anyone?
How did you feel about that? This is serious. Do not make light of it or in any way seem like you like
to fire people. At the same time, you will do it when it is the right thing to do. When it comes to the
organization versus the individual who has created a harmful situation, you will protect the
organization. Remember firing is not the same as layoff or reduction in force.

15. What is your philosophy towards work?
The interviewer is not looking for a long or flowery dissertation here. Do you have strong feelings that
the job gets done? Yes. That's the type of answer that works best here. Short and positive, showing a
benefit to the organization.

16. If you had enough money to retire right now, would you?
Answer yes if you would. But since you need to work, this is the type of work you prefer. Do not say
yes if you do not mean it.

17. Have you ever been asked to leave a position?
If you have not, say no. If you have, be honest, brief and avoid saying negative things about the people
or organization involved.

18. Explain how you would be an asset to this organization ?
You should be anxious for this question. It gives you a chance to highlight your best points as they
relate to the position being discussed. Give a little advance thought to this relationship. .

19. Why should we hire you?
Point out how your assets meet what the organization needs. Do not mention any other candidates to
make a comparison..

20. Tell me about a suggestion you have made ?
Have a good one ready. Be sure and use a suggestion that was accepted and was then considered
successful. One related to the type of work applied for is a real plus.

21. What irritates you about co-workers?
This is a trap question. Think real hard but fail to come up with anything that irritates you. A short
statement that you seem to get along with folks is great.

22. What is your greatest strength?
Numerous answers are good, just stay positive. A few good examples: Your ability to prioritize, Your
problem-solving skills, Your ability to work under pressure, Your ability to focus on projects, Your
professional expertise, Your leadership skills, Your positive attitude

23. Tell me about your dream job ?
Stay away from a specific job. You cannot win. If you say the job you are contending for is it, you
strain credibility. If you say another job is it, you plant the suspicion that you will be dissatisfied with
this position if hired. The best is to stay genetic and say something like: A job where I love the work,
like the people, can contribute andcan't wait to get to work.

24. Why do you think you would do well at this job?
Give several reasons and include skills, experience and interest.

25. What are you looking for in a job?
See answer # 23

26. What kind of person would you refuse to work with?
Do not be trivial. It would take disloyalty to the organization, violence or lawbreaking to get you to
object. Minor objections will label you as a whiner.

27. What is more important to you: the money or the work?
Money is always important, but the work is the most important. There is no better answer.

28. What would your previous supervisor say your strongest point is?
There are numerous good possibilities: Loyalty, Energy, Positive attitude, Leadership, Team player,
Expertise,Initiativ e, Patience, Hard work, Creativity, Problem solver

29. Tell me about a problem you had with a supervisor?
Biggest trap of all. This is a test to see if you will speak ill of your boss. If you fall for it and tell about
a problem with a former boss, you may well below the interview right there. Stay positive and develop
a poor memory about any trouble with a supervisor.

30. What has disappointed you about a job?
Don't get trivial or negative. Safe areas are few but can include: Not enough of a challenge. You were
laid off in a reduction Company did not win a contract, which would have given you more
responsibility.

31. Tell me about your ability to work under pressure.
You may say that you thrive under certain types of pressure. Give an example that relates to the type of
position applied for.

32. Do your skills match this job or another job more closely?
Probably this one. Do not give fuel to the suspicion that you may want another job more than this one.

33. What motivates you to do your best on the job?
This is a personal trait that only you can say, but good examples are: Challenge, Achievement,
Recognition

34. Are you willing to work overtime? Nights? Weekends?
This is up to you. Be totally honest.

35. How would you know you were successful on this job?
Several ways are good measures: You set high standards for yourself and meet them. Your outcomes
are a success. Your boss tell you that you are successful

36. Would you be willing to relocate if required?
You should be clear on this with your family prior to the interview if you think there is a chance it may
come up. Do not say yes just to get the job if the real answer is no. This can create a lot of problems
later on in your career. Be honest at this point and save yourself future grief.

37. Are you willing to put the interests of the organization ahead of your own?
This is a straight loyalty and dedication question. Do not worry about the deep ethical and
philosophical implications. Just say yes.

38. Describe your management style ?
Try to avoid labels. Some of the more common labels, like progressive, salesman or consensus, can
have several meanings or descriptions depending on which management expert you listen to. The
situational style is safe, because it says you will manage according to the situation, instead of one size
fits all.

39. What have you learned from mistakes on the job?
Here you have to come up with something or you strain credibility. Make it small, well intentioned
mistake with a positive lesson learned. An example would be working too far ahead of colleagues on a
project and thus throwing coordination off.

40. Do you have any blind spots?
Trick question. If you know about blind spots, they are no longer blind spots. Do not reveal any
personal areas of concern here. Let them do their own discovery on your bad points. Do not hand it to
them.

41. If you were hiring a person for this job, what would you look for?
Be careful to mention traits that are needed and that you have.

42. Do you think you are overqualified for this position?
Regardless of your qualifications, state that you are very well qualified for the position.

43. How do you propose to compensate for your lack of experience?
First, if you have experience that the interviewer does not know about, bring that up: Then, point out
(if true) that you are a hard working quick learner.

44. What qualities do you look for in a boss?
Be generic and positive. Safe qualities are knowledgeable, a sense of humor, fair, loyal to subordinates
and holder of high standards. All bosses think they have these traits.

45. Tell me about a time when you helped resolve a dispute ?
between others. Pick a specific incident. Concentrate on your problem solving technique and not the
dispute you settled.

46. What position do you prefer on a team working on a project?
Be honest. If you are comfortable in different roles, point that out.

47. Describe your work ethic ?
Emphasize benefits to the organization. Things like, determination to get the job done and work hard
but enjoy your work are good.

48. What has been your biggest professional disappointment?
Be sure that you refer to something that was beyond your control. Show acceptance and no negative
feelings.

49. Tell me about the most fun you have had on the job.
Talk about having fun by accomplishing something for the organization.

50. Do you have any questions for me?
Always have some questions prepared. Questions prepared where you will be an asset to the
organization are good. How soon will I be able to be productive? and What type of projects will I be
able to assist on? are examples.
And Finally Best of Luck Hope you will be succussful in the interview you are going to face in coming
days.
"Never take some one for granted,Hold every person Close to your Heart because you might wake up
one day and realise that you have lost a diamond while you were too busy collecting stones."
Remember this always in life.

It's an opportun|ty to correct our m|stakes |f someone cr|t|c|se us.

|n some cond|t|on I fe|t that I can do better up to my expectat|ons th|s because no body

S|r, No [ob |s bor|ng |t |s tota||y depend upon |nd|v|dua| |nterest, and not upon
qua||f|cat|on,exper|ence,etc. If I w||| be |nterested about any [ob then we can take th|s as a
cha||enge and |earn new th|ngs and can make |t en[oyfu|||||..
Lvery Iob have |ts own va|ue. We make |t bor|ng or |nterest|ng based on |nd|v|dua|
percept|ons. We|| I en[oy my [ob, but at t|mes I get bored of monotonous [ob

work buL l am here Lo galn my knowledge, new skllls, work experlence and Lo flnlsh my work wlLhln Lhe
glven deadllne
I never count |t, because for me gett|ng the work f|n|sh |s |mportant and not count|ng the
hours |mportant. I am a|ways ava||ab|e whenever I fee| my company needs me.
In the f|e|d where I am work|ng, there |s no such th|ng ||ke ||m|ted hour work. Whenerver
s|tuat|on demands we a|ways stand for work.
9.What was the toughest cha||enge you have ever faced?
As a fresher l dlnL face any challenge ln my professlonal llfe. buL ln personal llfe many challenges
lnvlLed me buL noLhlng was LoughesL as l accepLed all Lhose challenges ln a poslLlve way and l was

change by Laklng suggesLlons from Lhe respecLed experlenced person for effecLlve resulLs. AparL from
LhaL lf no changes needed Lhan l wlll glve my besL Lo Lhe company as a board member
S|r may be there are so many exper|enced persons |n board. May be they know someth|ng
better than me. So I respect the|r |deas. 1here |s much d|fference between chang|ng and
updat|ng. Where chang|ng resu|ts good outcome w|th bad. And where as updat|ng resu|ts
more product|v|ty and |nnovat|ve thoughts. So I w||| update the process If I came on board.
11.now cou|d you have |mproved your career progress?
Slr, l plan Lo lmprove my career progress each and every day. Lven durlng Lhls lnLervlew l am learnlng

my |earn|ngs thus re|at|ng to my career progress
12.1e|| me honest|y about the strong po|nts and weak po|nts of your boss
(company, management team, etc.)
1here are many sLrong polnLs and lL ls dlfflculL Lo choose a few buL l have learnL Llme managemenL,
dlsclpllne from my boss. "A coln has boLh sldes" ln Lhe same way everyone has weak polnLs also buL l
can noL say weak polnLs because l feel l'm noL Lhe rlghL person Lo reveal.
Lveryone has the|r pos|t|ve and negat|ve s|des. My boss |s a|ways true to the|r words and
very creat|ve m|nd and energet|c too. And |n negat|ve way I am not the person who [udge to
h|m. I a|ways |earn from h|m so many th|ngs from d|fferent ways
S|r once I get th|s [ob I w||| be one of the empoyee to th|s organ|zat|on.
So |ts my respons|b|||ty to save the |nformat|on regard|ng our company, boss, emp|oyees etc.
If I te|| th|s |nformat|on I am not an honesty person.
So how can I answer th|s quest|on. Sorry s|r.
13.Look|ng back on your |ast pos|t|on, have you done your best work?
l have done my besL work ln my prevlous poslLlon. Lven whaLever l am Loday LhaL ls Lhe resulL of my
pasL hard work. l have lmproved myself a loL by dolng hard work and LhaL experlence wlll lnsplre me Lo
loL Lo do well ln fuLure
In my |ast company I have g|ven my cent percent for the betterment of the organ|sat|on as
we|| as po||shed my career sk|||s ||ke Cff|ce adm|n|strat|on, commun|cat|on sk|||s,
coord|nat|on sk|||s. I am proud that I cou|d ga|n and |mprove my personne| sk|||s and pos|t|ve
att|tude towards career advancement.
Lveryone knows that nobody |s perfect as the|r |s a|ways a scope for |mprovement. 1hough I
don't get any reward for my work done |n my prev|ous [ob but I am sure I was g|ven my 100
and my sat|sfact|on |s more va|uab|e to me.
14.Why shou|d I h|re you from the outs|de when I cou|d promote someone
from w|th|n?
romoLlng Lo exlsLlng employees ls a good and poslLlve approach, buL comblnaLlon of old branches and
new leaves always make a beLLer Lree. So lL wlll be always beLLer for a organlzaLlon lf a fresh new
aLLlLude/LhoughL mlxed wlLh an experlence LhoughL
S|r, I th|nk |t |s a|ways good to have Iresh Iru|ts |n your basket. If you h|re peop|e from
outs|de |t w||| def|n|te|y add some new sk|||s and know|edge to your organ|zat|on and the
fresh fru|t w||| he|p |mprove your organ|zat|ona| hea|th. :-).
D|fferent peop|e have d|fferent thoughts. A guy from outs|de w||| br|ng new |deas wh|ch he
|earn somewhere, wh|ch can |mprove your organ|sat|on. It may be way of g|v|ng a chance to
a ta|ented person to prove h|mse|f
1S.Look|ng back, what wou|d you do d|fferent|y |n your ||fe?
l belleve LhaL no one ln Lhls world ls rlch enough Lo buy hls own pasL. So Lhere ls no use of worrylng
abouL pasL buL l can declde my fuLure by maklng besL use of presenL. So l llke Lo llve each momenL
of my llfe
We|| Look|ng back |n ||fe does not go|ng to change anyth|ng |n past. So I focus on my present
and future. 8ut I w||| understand the m|stakes what I done |n past w||| not be repeated |n
future.
We are not change our past but present and future |s tota||y depend on our se|f that why |f
we are focus on our present then our future def|n|te|y good. In our ||fe every moment teach
us someth|ng new that's why not don't waste t|me on th|nk past focus on present
16.Why are not you earn|ng more money at th|s stage of your career?
My flrsL alm Lo geL as Loo much Lechnlcal knowledge ln nexL few years where more money
don'L maLLer. l can make money any Llme where my excellenL skllls break all barrlers Lo make
more money.

Larn|ng money |s not a b|g dea|s we can do |t |n many ways but gett|ng the ta|ent and
exper|ence |n work |s more |mportant for me. If we have ta|ent and exp. In work then money
w||| automat|ca||y fo||ow us
We|| s|r there are so many segment where I cou|d earn more money, 8ut I have my own
pr|nc|p|es, persona| goa|s, and pass|on and I am go|ng through |n my r|ght track. I strong|y
be||eve that at one t|me I wou|d reach great he|ghts |n terms of h|rearchy a|so |n monetary
status.
