Interview preparation tips for other job seekers - The companies are hiring employees not machines correct. So the person taking interview should have conversation. I agree relating to process it is required but on the other hand some random conversation should also be initiated. And in this random conversation the interviewer should judge the candidate thought process and his ability to judge and go beyond the limits.

This create negative impact on the Companies image.
