Never loose hope and keep working, anyone who works hard will
definitely make it and its only a matter
of time. Whats important is hard work, sincerity and faith in
oneself.
Following are my suggestions regarding job hunting, hope its
helpful to all u guys in
your job search.
1. Firstly I think the most important thing is how you go about
searching for a job. Well the common
place where openings are found is in papers, groups like
chetana, employment news, campus interviews etc, butthe most
important source is employee reference. Most of the vacancies are
filled through employee reference as
its easy and less time consuming for the companies, so its
important to have a good network.
Its not enough if you send your resume and sit back expecting a
reply, its important to
follow up with the concerned person and get the feedback. It
shows your interest in the job, also even if you
are eligible you might not receive call letter for writing the
test, so its important to follow up.
. !econdly its important to have a good resume, it should be
true to the ma"imum e"tent and should project yourstrengths mainly,
resume gives the first impression about yourself to the potential
employer, so one has to be
careful in designing a resume, thanks to the numerous mails
received by the group.
#. $%&I&'() preparation is the ne"t thing that*s
important. I basically prepared from the following, Its very useful
to
have a look at old papers which helps in planning your approach,
I made a mistake early on by not bothering to
work out old papers. I think once when you have finished the
basic preparation, its better to prepare in a
company specific manner, so that one can know where he*s lacking
and concentrate on those specific areas.

+. the ne"t thing is ( . here I think already lot of mails
concerning this has been sent. I have a collection of
them . $nyone who wants it can ask for the same.
In gd I think lot of things matter. #ood and fluent +nglish is a
must, how well one assembles and
presents his thoughts, knowledge of the subject5its useful to
keep in touch with current affairs and
developments in the I( industry6, maintaining eye contact with
the panel,
7ot being dominant and giving others a chance to speak and how
well one is able to lead a team. I think
these are the traits that cos look for. 4ne very important thing
is not trying to prove the other person wrong,
your views may be different but u should only put forth your
thoughts and not find fault in others views
because that will portray you as a rigid and inflexible
person.
-. In hr interview what I think really matters is convincing the
hr person that u are the right person for the job and u
would fit in and be able to contribute to the company. I think
its basically about selling oneself. ne has to be very
careful in responding to hr /uestions, even though people are
normally friendly, one should remember that they
are the boss and u are looking forward to working for them.
0hoose your words carefully.
In my case I did my *2" after .2om and had one year gap, it was
really tough convincing hr
as to why I took up mca after b.com. so u need to think of
possible 8uestions and prepare answers
beforehand, that will make it easier to handle hr
interviews.
