I reached Interview venue by 7.45am. There I saw many candidates waiting. By 8 clk they asked us to go to the conference hall. There were 3 panels. By 8.30am they took our attendance. Then they gave us the order in which we have to appear for the verification process and also for the interview. I was the 4th in my panel.  In between the senior HR Manager asked us whether everyone of us understand Malayalam, read and write in Malayalam and so…

After all the staffs reached, they started the verification process by 9.15am. Friends they are asking for all your certificates (What ever qualifications you have). You must produce the mark lists of all the semesters. Otherwise they will ask you to give a written application promising that you will produce it on the very next day.

They called out our names and asked us to go to another hall inside which there were 2 cabins where the interviews were taken.

When I entered the room I saw 3 men and a female interviewer. All except one was 50+. They were all very friendly and behaved as if you were a member of there family. My Interview started by 10.45am. Once I stepped into the room I wished them Good Morning and they wished me too. The person who appeared to be the leader of the panel said Good Morning Anjana. Then I was surprised. I greeted him with a smile.

Suggestion : Be confident and be yourself. Don’t be nervous. They are not measuring your knowledge; they are only checking how you will handle critical situations. So try to avoid creating confusions because they may attack you with it and you yourself will have to declare defeated. They don’t want people who create confusions to get out of the different matters, Instead you may tell them that you don’t know and ask them “May I Guess”.

Hope this post will help you. All the best friends.
