Interview Preparation Tips

Interview preparation tips for other job seekers - One thing I really tell to job seekers. So many people said that Noukri.com is one of the best platform for job seeker. But I said that don't trust anyone easily because once I had get offer letter from Noukri.com that is Volvo Company offer letter. Then I get call from someone and they told that you can pay 2500 rupees and join the company. That time I wait 1 day then I immediately connect to Volvo company HR from LinkedIn, in offer letter the HR name was there.
so I easily connect them and I get follow back then directly I did message to HR then I said him whole story. They told it is fake offer letter otherwise I loss my money.

So keep patience and forward.
