  • Q1. Introduce yourself?

Interview Preparation Tips

Interview preparation tips for other job seekers - Mind on single word used by you in interview. Because every single word can give hint for creation of new question. Always show less in interview. " Important is ki apna interview bachana hai" . They will try to find mistakes in your answer, but you need not to show weaker area in interview, always show your stronger areas( favourite subjects). Always try to answer questions in a way that uses those words which is known by you. Do not use those words that you don't know while answering any question.
Next important thing you need to understand is that interviewer will ask a series of questions from a particular subject they know, so in starting if you tell interviewer that I am confident on these subjects, then it will be very beneficial for you. They are asking a series of questions because they want to check depth of your knowledge..

Next important thing is that never show that this job is less important for you, like they will ask questions that are you interested in MBA, or further studies? In this case always say No, whatever condition they say like will you do mba if we provide it, say no to it...

And last but very important, write skills in your CV that is required for that profile or company.

Best Wishes,
Ajay Arya
