The mail that we received from our CRC describing about the placement drive, had only mentioned that the skills required are Good communication skills, verbal and written . So, we had no other idea what and how to prepare about the drive. Moreover, there was no information available about the rounds that would be commenced over there. So, we were totally unprepared. I made all the necessary arrangement, required for the drive. You must read: ‘10 things to remember before you attend a placement drive’. As the day arrived, we decided to hire a cab from OLA.   So, we were four friends, three boys and one girl. I woke them up very early in the morning, as the drive was supposed to be held at 9:30 AM, and we were in Noida-63 at 9:00AM, but as we didn’t know the exact location, so we took the assistance of the great Google Maps. This application is specially created to misguide you when you are actually lost. It took us about twenty to twenty five minutes of driving and a...

[January 01, 2016] [9:00 PM] We were close to each other; closer than ever. Her eyes, closed down, were the proof that she made her heart win over her brain. I too clenched my eyes and touched her forehead with mine. I felt her warm breath over my lips. Those breaths of her were mine. Our tight hug told each other that our hearts were pounding. Her clutch became much firm and nails of her tried to pierce through my denim shirt, which she gifted me yesterday; my New Year’s gift. I opened my eyes and looked at her red rosy lips, perfectly wedged and beautifully carved by the God. My lower lip shivered, slowly pulled itself closer to her and I drifted my head to push my lips over her upper lip. She didn’t respond. Maybe she was still fighting inside, deciding between the yes and no. Her steadiness shaped my thoughts- ‘she is still confused’, and I, somehow, started to withdraw myself. But, as soon as the lip touch loosened from my side, her lips opened and arrested my mouth. It was ...

1) PREPARE A RESUME.  Resume represents you. The panel observes it and sketches your character in his/her mind. Not only the contents but the way you present the contents is also noticed. Keep it very simple! Ok I repeat it again, keep it very simple! I used the font TIMES NEW ROMAN and font size was 12. No need to show creativity, ok I repeat this also, don’t show any creativity in resume. It is not your MS-WORD skill test. Keep it look professional. I avoided mentioning my strengths, weakness, height, weight, sex, creed, color, etc. In short I kept it look like a resume instead of a BIO DATA. Hobbies that you mention in your resume must be the ones about over which you have strong grip. For example if you mention your hobby as cooking then you must know about the recipes and way of cooking. (In short- don’t write the fake things.) There is no need of adding unnecessary things in your achievements portion. After you are done with the resume, show it to several people and ask th...

“SOME SUGGESTIONS REGARDING THE PLACEMENTS ” 1) Attend the Pre Placement Talk session with attention. It may bore you but it’s very helpful for understanding what this recruitment needs in the candidates. 2) Don’t be a dumb batch! Respond to HR in the Pre Placement Session! 3) Don’t ask unnecessary questions (for example - How the payment shall be provided? Check or cash) to the HR. Don’t put him in the perception that he is dealing with a stupid crowd. 4) Grammar test needs to your actual knowledge of English. The questions in the test are SIMPLE not EASY. 5) One day preparation for grammar test won’t work. 6) Mark the answer (in your answer sheet) when you make your final decision, no need to perform overwriting else this may disqualify your answer. 6) While giving your introduction in the JAM or GD round, don’t speak like a programmed machine. DON’T LEARN YOUR INTRODUCTION BY HEART. Speak as if you are a human and your listener too is a human. Panels want to listen and unde...

PRE PLACEMENT TALK . About 11’ o clock HR of HCL (Mr. MAYANK) entered the seminar hall. He is a young guy, was wearing black shirt and formal pants. He carried his laptop along with him over his right shoulder and walked to the stage. Well his laptop didn’t get connected to the projector, maybe some technical issue. So he started without showing any presentations. He didn’t use the mic even. Pre placement talk is a session in which concerned representative of the company (Here the HR) talks to the students/candidates about the companies objectives and achievements.
