Well, it seems like ages since i last posted!! Lotsa things have happened and many more in pipeline... whatever it is, a B-School life can never be called "boring".
For a change....have been thinking of studying for a certification course which i have taken in finance, also in pipeline are moots to write some papers for certain competitions, placement/impress work, etc etc....
One good thing to happen was the selections for IMPRESS 13 (the media cell @ NITIE for the uninitiated). Narrowed down on 8 people from 95 applicants, totally exhausted with all the interviews and final shortlists!
Seriously speaking, taking interviews is no joke-
1. Usually you start off with a cliched question- "Introduce yourself"
2. Gradually move on to what the person thinks about the work we do (Hardly 10-15 guyz knew what we did as a committee?! ..hmm some food for thought- 'do ur homework, it helps in any interview')
3. Guaging how sincere/hardworking the person is... Here lies the biggest opportunity for people to post rosy picture of their own. Usually people tend to shift towards the 'white' side of things whenever there is an opportunity for shades of 'grey'.
Lemme explain - Rate urself on 1 - 10 on "ability to contribute in committee work when your acads get seriously affected". Ans- 8 to 10. That was the most common answer... But seriously, if someone is so neligent of acads (that too in a B-School where you have come here to study in the first place), is he/she worth taking at all?? dicey question...
Hmm, pretty tough task to conduct 20-30 interviews....that too for 2 days (nights rather). Usually interviews kick off at 7 PM and go until 3-4AM.... I really pity the HR ppl who's sole work is taking interviews!
Well, lemme get back to do some studying now....hoping against hope that I clear this Fin thingy...!
Ciao till next time...Harsha
