Facing Interview (Tips)

Hello All... Here are the tips for facing the Interview

 Prepare for the interview

  • Dress appropriately in simple, comfortable clothes that reflect your personality.
  • Avoid wearing new shoes (squeaking noises) and do practice wearing your tie.
  • Be punctual – don't be late or even too early.
  • Read up about the company, what business they are into, growth trends, diversification etc.
  • Read your own resume - be sure that you don't have to look into your resume to recall details during the interview
  • Carry extra copies of your resume and testimonials – you never know when you may need them.
  • Make sure you know the full name and designation of the person interviewing you
  • Keep your references ready
  • Remember to make a note of your previous or current salary with all its components. 

Make a good first impression

  • Wish the interviewer( s) cheerfully and with a smile
  • A firm handshake is an indicator of how you are feeling. If you are a lady, then some male employers might not make the first move, but go ahead and initiate the handshake
  • Wait till you are asked to sit down
  • Look the person in the eye
  • Do not appear too nervous or overconfident. Your body language usually conveys more than what you are saying. Don't slouch or lean forward too much.
  • Try to curb nervous mannerisms eg. fidgeting or biting your finger.]
  • Appear comfortable, confident and interested in securing the job

During the interview

  • Start the interview with a pleasant smile.
  • Always remember to give a firm handshake. If there are women in your interview panel, wait for the other person to extend the hand while shaking hands.
  • Listen carefully to what the interviewer is saying
  • Stress on what you can contribute to the organization.
  • Remember that the employer is in control of the interview
  • Don't be too long-winded – say what you want to convey in crisp sentences and use terms that would convey your job & achievements.
  • Complete your sentences - don't answer just yes or no
  • What you don't know can be learned – tell them if you don't know something. But give instances of how quick a learner you are.
  • Do not boast. People on the other side are shrewd and can generally see through you. At the same time talk about achievements giving due credit to others.
  • When talking about yourself and your aspirations, do not sound vague or do not say that you don't know something. You should be very clear and precise about what you want to do, where you want to go etc.
  • If you don't understand a question, ask for clarification, don't answer vaguely.
  • Don't talk about your personal problems, why you need the job etc
  • Don't get personal – even if you know the interviewer personally
  • Don't be overconfident or too nervous
  • Don't badmouth your previous employer - you could do the same in the case of the prospective customer
  • Don't complain about politics, a bad boss or a poor salary - your reasons for change should be higher responsibilities, location etc.
  • If the interviewer is interrupted during the course of the interview, don't pick up papers on his/her desk and read them
  • Don't ask about salary before the offer is made
  • Strike a balance between what you actually are and what you want to be – don't paint a picture of yourself as somebody who is not concerned about money, social status etc.
  • Don't be in a hurry to complete the interview
  • Ask questions at the end of the interview – it could be about the company, the job or the next stage of the interview process. It will be an indicator of your interest in the position
  • Send a thank-you letter – outlining your interest in the job and why you are qualified for it.

Be positive and confident - and the job is yours!

Avoiding Back Pain


Hi All, 

Most of us sit in a single position for the whole day in the office, and in the morning / evening drive all the way to our places. As a result at night, while going to bed, many of us experience a slight pain in the back.

DON'T IGNORE IT AT ALL.....this may lead to many further diseases and disabilities as well....

Don't panic, just do the following exercise for min 10 mins every morning and shoot off the back pain.

Enjoy a healthy living....


Simple Exercises... to keep you fit and avoid back pain.
Need not visit a gym, your home may be the ideal place.



 

Sleeping Position



Did you know that your sleeping position says a lot about your personality?
So find out now - its time do some soul searching.
 
Do you sleep on your tummy the entire night?

Do you sleep on your tummy the entire night? While you are balanced and level headed, you tend to be slightly narrow minded. You have fixed ideas and are unlikely to accept another person's opinion easily. You force people to comply with your needs, and you rarely adjust to others. In spite of this, you are popular and have many friends.
In a foetal position

If you sleep on your side with your knees curled up towards your stomach, in a foetal position, it shows that you are vulnerable and sensitive. You can get easily hurt, and get upset very easily. You also tend to be selfish, and put your needs ahead of others. This is not necessarily a bad thing, but it will do you good to lighten up a bit. You have a short temper and are easily irritated.
On your side, with your knees slightly bent

If you sleep on your side with your knees very slightly bent, it shows that you are a sincere and loving person. You are sensitive, polite and gentle. You would never hurt anyone intentionally - you're too nice a person. You have a good heart, and everyone is fond of you. You get along with most people, as you see the good in them and ignore the bad. This is a rare quality. Ho! wever, at times you tend to be too harsh and critical of yourself. If you make a mistake, you will brood about it for hours - or even days.
On your back with your legs crossed

If you sleep on your back with your legs crossed, it shows that you are slightly vain and self-obsessed. You find it difficult to accept change. You like things to stay the way you are, and are constantly looking back into your past. You are a solitary person, and you are also very tolerant and patient.
On your side, with your knees curled

If you sleep on your side, without your knees bent but not totally curled in towards your tummy, it indicates that you are a confident person. You usually are successful in most of your undertakings. You are hardworking and dedicated. Your lack of success at anything is more due to your neglect and laidback attitude than incompetence. If you sleep on your right side, with your right arm stretched out under your head, power and fortune are not far from your grasp.
On your side, with one knee bent

Do you sleep on your side, with one knee bent and the other straight? You are a quiet and introverted person. The saying 'Still waters run deep' seems to have been made for you, because though you don't talk much, you observe and listen. You talk less because you don't believe in indulging in unnecessary conversation. You are intelligent, and are of a balanced nature. Rarely w! ill you lose control of yourself. You know what you are doing, and where you are going. However, you don't have too much patience with those who are less intelligent than you. Loosen up! You don't discuss your feelings, and are not a very emotional person. You are rational and think with your head, not with your heart.
On your back, with your arms crossed under your head

If you sleep on your back with your arms crossed under your head,
it shows that you are an intelligent person. You are not a chatterbox, but you are friendly, and have a few close friends - who are all you need. It takes you a while to get to like someone. Men who sleep like this make good providers, but they don't love easily. Too choosy perhaps.
On your back with your arms and legs straight

If you sleep on your back with your arms and legs spread out straight, it shows that you are a free spirit! You love your independence. And, you love to gossip! You also don't brood over things too much. You are laidback and don't get tense easily - which is a good thing. In addition, you enjoy the luxurious things in life, and are a spendthrift. But, thankfully, your optimistic attitude helps you along the career ladder, and you probably earn a lot as well. you definitely are capable of it

Love Quotes



Romantic love quotes   What greater thing is there for two human souls that to feel that they are joined... to strengthen each other... to be at one with each other in silent unspeakable memories. 
    

Valentine's Day quotes   In the arithmetic of love, one plus one equals everything, and two minus one equals nothing. 
    
   For one human being to love another that is perhaps the most difficult of our tasks; the ultimate, the last test and proof; the work for which all other work is but preparation. 
     


   There is more hunger for love and appreciation in this world than for bread. 
   
   Love cannot endure indifference. It needs to be wanted. Like a lamp, it needs to be fed out of the oil of another's heart, or its flame burns low. 
     

   You will find as you look back upon your life that the moments when you have really lived, are the moments when you have done things in a spirit of love. 
      
   Treasure the love you receive above all.
It will survive long after your good health has vanished.
  

   The person who tries to live alone will not succeed as a human being. His heart withers if it does not answer another heart. His mind shrinks away if he hears only the echoes of his own thoughts and finds no other inspiration. 
    

   Love works in miracles every day: such as weakening the strong, and stretching the weak; making fools of the wise, and wise men of fools; favouring the passions, destroying reason, and in a word, turning everything topsy-turvy.
    
   All love that has not friendship for its base,
is like a mansion built upon the sand. 
      
   Love is the emblem of eternity: it confounds all notion of time:
effaces all memory of a beginning, all fear of an end. 
    

   Love is the history of a woman's life; it is an episode in man's.
    
   The loving are the daring.
   

   Loneliness and the feeling of being unwanted is the most terrible.
     

   The only gift is a portion of thyself.
     

   The best portion of a good man's life,
His little, nameless, unremembered acts,
Of kindness and of love. 
      

   Grow old along with me, the best is yet to be.
    

   Love is a thing, well, its kind of like quicksand: 
The more you are in it, the deeper you sink. 
And when it hits you, you've just got to fall. 
   

   Love is the expansion of two natures in such fashion
that each include the other,
each is enriched by the other. 
     
   Think about it, there must be higher love
Down in the heart or hidden in the stars above
Without it, life is a wasted time
Look inside your heart, I'll look inside mine. 
   
   Love is an electric blanket with somebody else in control of the switch. 
    
   Love does not consist in gazing at each other
but in looking together in the same direction. 
     
   Romance has been elegantly defined as the offspring of fiction and love. 
    
   Find the person who will love you because of your differences and
not in spite of them and you have found a lover for life. 
   
   Nobody will ever win the battle of the sexes.
There's too much fraternizing with the enemy. 
     
   To laugh often and love much... to appreciate beauty,
to find the best in others, to give one's self...
this is to have succeeded. 
      
   Kindness in words creates confidence.
Kindness in thinking creates profoundness.
Kindness in giving creates love. 
  
   The heart has reasons that reason does not understand. 
    
   Love is the true means by which the world is enjoyed:
our love to others, and others' love to us. 
      
   Love is always bestowed as a gift --
freely, willingly, and without expectation....
We don't love to be loved; we love to love. 
      
   It is best to love wisely, no doubt;
but to love foolishly is better than
not to be able to love at all. 
     
   Love is a mutual self-giving which ends in self-recovery. 
    
   We find rest in those we love, and we provide a resting place
in ourselves for those who love us. 
   
   Love grows by giving. The love we give away is the only love we keep. The only way to retain love is to give it away. 
     
   The most powerful symptom of love is a tenderness which becomes at times almost insupportable. 
      
   There is no instinct like that of the heart. 
   
   We are all born for love...
it is the principle existence and it's only end. 
 
   To fear love is to fear life,
and those who fear life are already three parts dead. 
      
   We can only learn to love by loving. 
 
   May no gift be too small to give,
nor too simple to receive,
which is wrapped in thoughtfulness
and tied with love. 
 
   Spread love everywhere you go:
first of all in your own home.
Give love to your children, to a wife
or husband, to a next-door neighbor. 
    
   The dedicated life is the life worth living.
You must give with your whole heart. 
   
   Love is the master key that opens the gates of happiness. 
     
   You come to love not by finding the perfect person,
but by seeing an imperfect person perfectly. 
   
   What the heart has once owned and had, it shall never lose. 
      
   Love doesn't make the world go 'round.
Love is what makes the ride worthwhile. 
     
   The truth [is] that there is only one terminal dignity-love.  And the story of a love is not important-what is important is that one is capable of love. It is perhaps the only glimpse we are permitted of eternity.
