Interview Preparation Tips

Interview preparation tips for other job seekers - One of there Hr person Ayushi called me and started taking interview on call she didn't read my Cv completely at naukri site so she wanted to ask me to brief my past job experiences and work. I explained her as much as I can do . I am not proficient in English so the level of my communication was not up to her expectations and their company needs. After whole interaction she said I think you should improve your communication skills first (not in a polite way ) I got angry ask " toh aap itni der se interact hi kyun kar rhe the pehli baar me aapko smjh jana chhaiye tha i am lack of communication skills. Aap kisi ka hard work nhi dekhoge work experience nhi dekhoge bs aapko English achhi chaiye then hire some fresher who has that kind of fluency. Sorry ! Boss I can't work with such organisation who doesn't appreciate or value your work experience. I know communication skills matters alot but itna bhi bura nhi hai Mera skills ki mujhe job hi na milegi. Such a bad experience from KPMG
