All the best!!!

Hello Friends,

The Campus Placements programs have started at few of the locations and some of you would have appeared for the interviews at this program. At some locations its going on while at other places it is about to start in a day or two.

There might be butterflies in your stomach. I very well understand the anxiety that all the Freshers have while facing the first job interviews of their life. Its a feeling that cant be explained in words.

Friends I hope you might have prepared well for the interviews and each one of you would be determined to crack these interviews and bag your dream jobs.

On the eve of these placements lets discuss what things you need to take care of in the placements program:

• As mentioned in my earlier blogs, do reach before time at the placements venue.

• Please do carry your file alongwith you. For the list of documents that you need to keep with you, refer my previous blog.

• Be confident and have a positive attitude about the interviews. This will help you to perform well at the interview.

• Also have enough rest on the previous day so that you can have a calm and peaceful mind during the interviews.

• Do not be over confident in your approach while appearing for Group Discussions as well as written tests. You never when you will flunk in these tests because of being over confident, which will cost you a lot in the future.

I know these interviews are going to be decisive for everyone's future. It will help you to make your future secure and also give a right direction to your career. These interviews will provide you an opportunity of fulfilling all your dreams that you would have nurtured till date.

Securing a job suddenly brings a lot of change in a person as well his lifestyle. He feels that his hard work during his student days is now rewarded. He feels that he is on the top of this world and starts getting a lot of respect from his friends, family and the society. Indeed securing a job in anywhere is a commendable achievement.

Congratulations to all those who could clear interviews and get a job today....

But amongst these success stories, no one hears the silent cries of people who could not crack the interviews. They start feeling that they are a failure and that they are good-for-nothing. People start doubting their capabilities and ultimately they start doubting the degree that they have attained.

Friends, I understand that its hard to digest failure but there's always some other chance waiting for you.

As the saying goes "The real failure is when you stop trying." Prepare hard for the next interview. Work upon the areas in which you lagged and start afresh. No one in this world can stop you from cracking the toughest interview.

Do not refuse from appearing for more interviews. Do not give up. Do not accept the fact that there is no future for you now. As the Chinese proverb goes "Failure in not falling down but refusing to get up." So even if you fail in any of the interviews do not be disheartened. There are good things going to come in the future. So please do not give up.

Remember that even if you do not get any jobs in the small centres, there is an option of appearing at the interviews in the bigger centres where you will get more number of companies. Even you also have the option of starting your own practice or consultancy. Indeed starting your practice or consultancy is a tough decision you can always excel there and earn more than the people doing job.

Even I was rejected thrice by some of the best corporates offering a very good pay during the campus placements. But then I never lost the faith in myself and today I am working with one of the best corporates in the world. So do not lose hope. Future has stored a very good plan for each one of you.

Lastly I would say it doesn't matter whether you are a ranker, first attempt passout, or a passout in subsequent attempt during the interviews. The only thing that matters is how well do you sell yourself in those 10 minutes of your interview. If your are good at impressing people with your articulation, body language and your attitude for hard work people will select you for the jobs irrespective of your performance at the exams. Agreed that some companies have a pre-conceived notion of just selecting rankers or first attempt passouts, there are very few companies who do this. In such cases only the recruiters have to suffer because not all rankers perform well at the jobs.

In case if you fail in the interviews do not lose hope and dont keep on lamenting over your failures or educational performance. Each one of you has something unique in yourself. So if you do not get a job, try to find out what are you good at and start exploiting that potential of yours.

All the best for the interviews!

May all of you get a job of your choice.
