Dear Dipti,
First of all understand what is resume.
"A resume is a shorter, more focused account of your relevant skills and achievements. Although the exact length of a resume is open to debate, in general it should not exceed one page in length, and it's safer to be conventional; after all, you want to get the job. It's fine to miss things out of a resume to keep the length down; you should only include the things that are most relevant to the position you are targeting. Resumes also often miss out some of the more personal details that CVs include, such as hobbies and interests.
An individual can create several resume for different positions or different companies as per the requirement of job.
Resumes are focused on your skills and accomplishments so when interviewer is asking to talk your resume precisely tell the person what are your skills & accomplishment that matches with JD of offered job.

Hai Dipti,
Actually the interviewer wanted to check whether you are aware of what you communicate..it may be asked to know your understanding level . Dont worry every day is a kind of an experiment . Keep going. All the best

Hello Dipti,
Your specific query is quite interesting. In fact this dismay (similar in different situations) is shared by millions of unemployed young graduates in our country, unfortunately.
In spite of asking the question ‘what a fresher should answer in such situations?’ You would have asked what exactly interviewer/employer wants? (Interviewer is nobody but an agent of an employer) Probably you would have got the answer.
See if it is applicable to you too. Any employer wants to assure three things, for time being forget about resume/CV/application and even interview/s and probe further on;
Employers want to assure; whether...
1) Candidate CAN do the job?
2) Candidate WILL do the job?
3) Candidate knows-HOW-to-do the job?
All the processes carried out by various/all employers/organizations to identify and select the right candidates’ follows these three parameters; knowingly or unknowingly. Methods may be different for individual organizations. Now consider about your resume/CV/application and personal (lot of) interview/s and place your self in relation to these parameters and you may find the answer.
They mainly want to see beyond what is shown. It is the difference between what you (any candidate) show (resume/CV/personal interview) and what he (employer) wants to see.
One more HINT- I know (lot of) candidates who could not stand for ten minutes (actual ten minutes) to talk (converse) on their career goals written on their CVs and Resumes – some times they even do not know what is written, just copy pasted material.
If you could find out the answers for CAN | WILL | knows-HOW-to-do for yourself, probably, your next interview could be your best and last one too.
GoodLuck.

Very interesting, there are so many, genuine and prompt replies to Dipti’s query, and why not? Question itself is quite touchy, isn’t it?

What is a resume? What is a CV? What is a job application? What is a covering letter? And what is an interview? Extend the list as you imagine further.

Although whole economy hinges on this one query, is there any standardization?

In our country, on an average, for one job-position, what could be the ratio of the candidates applied? As per my information it is more than hundred, at least.
The more the applicants more different are the patterns and types of… resume/CV/application/covering letter and actual interviews + can add the list with your imagined additions here.

It is very interesting to imagine and visualize how interviewer/employer is short listing the candidates with this meshed up stuff.

Then, draw the lottery is the last method and option for them (this is not applicable to an employer but is applicable to his agent- an interviewer). Rest other things remain just a formality. They just select or reject the candidate on their gut-feeling; when they can not do it objectively.

One of main reasons for wrong hiring! They may reject the right candidate or may select the wrong one. In both the cases losers are the employer and the candidate.

Dear Dipti,
Don't get disheartened sometimes people like to show off it's only a complex. In many contexts, a résumé is short (usually one page), and therefore contains only experience directly relevant to a particular position or the job you have applied for.
Cheers !!

Dear Friend,
If you like to initiate your career in HR then you need to explore the world in HR wise. To be an HR rist you should have patience and sustainability. Do not be afraid of failures in life because success is counted sweetest by those who never succeeded. Keep it in mind and excel in life.
