Interview Preparation Tips

Interview preparation tips for other job seekers - 1. They take months to short list the candidate. Prime reason is they keep looking better on less money. If they are not closing fast then try to look for another opportunity
2. This is simple contract work but they offer salary with PF deduction and variable. This does not make sense as even if you do 2 year contract PF contribution will be not withdrawal till 5 years.
3. I will suggest request for Invoice consultant as you will get tax benefit
4. Buttering is required in this egoistic organization. Very political so if you are looking for next assignment after completing the current one then see that you know to sing praises to management
