Hahaha, just waiting for this response from you all. am just provoking him to research more and do not become over confident because it is one thing that make most potentail candidates lose jobs. i will advice he rather consider this word "assertive" than being confidence. you will bear with me you can be confident and walk to the interview room but if you are not assertive you can't answer most "STUPID" questions from the panel. I am found of asking "STUPID" questions basically to assess the assertiveness of a person, facial expression, how one can accomodate any unwanted confrontations. Interview is just like a stage drama, you have to learn your lines very well to convince the audience. it is really an act.
Guys great job for you all

I am sure that you had made Mayuri nervous, now you have to tell how she should handle the situation if she encounters interviewer like you. :D What can be the situations in which she can find herself trapped and what skills will help her successfully come out of it and acheive success in interview.
When i interview the first thing i do i make the Interviewee feel comforable, cool and calm so that he / she can be able to perform his / her best. To check other aspacts psychometric tests are sufficient enough to conclude.
While taking any interview i always remember how i felt when i myself faced the first interview of my life.

Bibhutosh,
My first interview wasn't smooth at all. okay help me answer this question i had on my first interview day(You are given a mobile phone to sell to a deaf and dumb person, how will u sell it) this basically not in line with what company does but just to see how the individual can think on his/her feet. there are thousand and one trivk stupid quetions that make you see the individuals thinking ability.
For an interview.- I will always say that- Put your best foot forward first.
She must look extra good in facial grooming, dressing and if posible nice fragrance(perfume).
Have a quote for the day.
get focused on the interview
spend time to research about the company(Vision and Mission Statements)
Thier customer based and what they do.
Eye contact is one thing we don't pay attention to but it is sign of assertiveness. Honesty is point i will touch on, if you dont know or have an answer to a question. please be bold and say i think i have no idea than giving a wrong answer. always answer your questions with smile. all your answer should be short and precise to the point.
Never hit on your former company, No, don't try it. My father will just thank you and tell you" okay you can go, we will get in touch with you wether you are on or not".
Always speak clearly and be ASSERTIVE.
hope this ponits will help my friend.

hi Deepali, I believe these questions are the most frequent questions we come across. Thanks for sharing the inputs that a recruiter searches for. Regards, Lily
hi Lockwood,
I agree that in an interview its better to be honest than to bluff!
But how do we bring in assertiveness as an interviewee and upto what extent do you think it is acceptable as an interviewer?
Being aggressive has its own pros and cons...and I don't find it just!
If a candidate is rated as being submissive how can we train him/her to
change that.

Lily
