Interview Tips....good one

Interviews can be very stressful, so the more prepared we are, the better. One way to prepare ourselves is to brainstorm ideas about questions we may get asked, so we’ll be ready when the time comes. But how do we know how to answer them? More than often, we get asked at least one question in an interview that seems to have little or nothing to do with the job. Believe it or not, there is a reason for every question they ask. Here are some tips to help you decode interview language and find out what they really want to know.

Interviewers ask various questions to find out what kind of person you are and how you might be as an employee. Here are some of the more popular interview questions and tips on how to answer them:

Q: “What is your greatest accomplishment in life so far?”

A: They’re not just trying to find out what kinds of things you’re good at. Interviewers ask questions like this because they’re trying to find out about your values. The way you answer this question reveals how you see the world. The things that are of value to you contribute to your overall personality, which has a lot to do with your work habits. For example, if the position requires the applicant to have more education than learned skills, you might answer by saying you’re most proud of your college or graduate level degree. This shows the interviewer that you have a solid understanding of what they’re looking for in an employee and you might be a good fit as well.

Q: “Why do you want to work for this company?”

A: Although this question seems fairly simple, a lot of people don’t seem to realize how important it is. Again, this relates to the “good fit” idea. The way you answer this question has a lot to do with how much chemistry you may or may not have with the company. Like any other relationship, it’s important to have good chemistry with the people you work with. While it’s not the same kind of chemistry you need in a personal relationship, it’s still important. They need to know if you have what it takes to join their team and if you’re willing to deliver. Instead of focusing on how good you would be at the job, focus on exactly how you will help them exceed their goals. Try to come up with unique ideas that make sense and will separate you from other candidates. Be creative and show them you’ve taken some time to really think about your answer.

Q: “So tell me about yourself...”

A: This question usually comes towards the middle of the interview or at the very beginning to help start things off. If it seems like a very straightforward question- it is. However, don’t make the mistake of thinking the interviewer wants to get to know you on a personal level. Interviewers ask this question in order to find out about your strengths and weaknesses and how they may affect your work performance. So instead of telling them what you like to do on weekends, you might want to say something like “I’m very sociable and I get along with all kinds of people.” An answer like that would show that you work well with others and you’re probably fairly easy to get along with.

Whatever you do- don’t stress too much about the actual questions. A lot of times, a first impression has more to do with the way you conduct yourself than the things you actually say. If you come in with pre-rehearsed answers and a script-like presentation, you probably won’t win them over. But if you are asked a question that you weren’t prepared for, but you handle it well, you are exhibiting both sincerity and “grace under pressure.” Now that you understand the meaning of these questions, you should be able to come up with some personalized answers. Keep in mind that they ask these questions to get an idea of who you are, not to put you on the spot. If you ever feel like you’re being asked an unfair or inappropriate question, you always have the option to leave the interview and turn down the job. But in most situations, the person is just trying to get to know you a little, so let them!

Swiss bank revealed India has more money than rest of the world !!







This is so shocking…. ….If black money deposits was an Olympics event….
India would have won a gold medal hands down. The second best Russia has
4 times lesser deposit. U.S. is not even there in the counting in top
five! India has more money in Swiss banks
than all the other countries combined!


Recently, due to international pressure, the Swiss government agreed to
disclose the names of the account holders only if the respective
governments formally asked for it.. Indian government is not asking for
the details….. ..no marks for guessing why?



We need to start a movement to pressurize the government to do so! This
is perhaps the only way, and a golden opportunity, to expose the high
and mighty and weed out corruption!
.

.
.
Is India poor, who says? Ask the Swiss banks. With personal account
deposit bank of $1,500 billion in foreign reserve which have been
misappropriated, an amount 13 times larger than the country’s foreign
debt, one needs to rethink if India is a poor country?

DISHONEST INDUSTRIALISTS, scandalous politicians and corrupt IAS, IRS,
IPS officers have deposited in foreign banks in their illegal personal
accounts a sum of about $1500 billion, which have been misappropriated
by them. This amount is about 13 times larger
than the country’s foreign debt. With this amount 45 crore poor
people can get Rs 1,00,000 each.

This huge amount has been appropriated from the people of India by
exploiting and betraying them. Once this huge amount of black money and
property comes back to India , the entire foreign debt can be repaid in
24 hours. After paying the entire foreign debt,
we will have surplus amount, almost 12 times larger than the foreign
debt. If this surplus amount is invested in earning interest, the amount
of interest will be more than the annual budget of the Central
government. So even if all the taxes are abolished,
then also the Central government will be able to maintain the country
very comfortably.

Some 80,000 people travel to Switzerland every year, of whom 25,000
travel very frequently. ‘Obviously, these people won’t be tourists..
They must be travelling there for some other reason,’ believes an
official involved in tracking illegal money.. And, clearly,
he isn’t referring to the commerce ministry bureaucrats who’ve
been flitting in and out of Geneva ever since the World Trade
Organisation (WTO) negotiations went into a tailspin!

Just read the following details and note how these dishonest
industrialists, scandalous politicians, corrupt officers, cricketers,
film actors, illegal sex trade and protected wildlife operators, to name
just a few, sucked this country’s wealth and prosperity.
This may be the picture of deposits in Swiss banks only. What about
other international banks ?

Black money in Swiss banks — Swiss Banking Association report, 2006
details bank deposits in the territory of Switzerland by nationals of
following countries :



TOP FIVE

INDIA $1,456 BILLION

RUSSIA $470 BILLION

U.K. $390 BILLION

UKRAINE $100 BILLION

CHINA $96 BILLION


Now do the math’s - India with $1,456 billion or $1.4 trillion has
more money in Swiss banks than rest of the world combined. Public loot
since 1947:

Can we bring back our money ? It is one of the biggest loots witnessed
by mankind — the loot of the Aam Aadmi (common man) since 1947, by his
brethren occupying public office. It has been orchestrated by
politicians, bureaucrats and some businessmen.

The list is almost all-encompassing. No wonder, everyone in India loots
with impunity and without any fear. What is even more depressing in that
this ill-gotten wealth of ours has been stashed away abroad into secret
bank accounts located in some of the world’s
best known tax havens. And to that extent the Indian economy has been
stripped of its wealth. Ordinary Indians may not be exactly aware of how
such secret accounts operate and what are the rules and regulations that
go on to govern such tax havens. However,
one may well be aware of ‘Swiss bank accounts,’ the shorthand for
murky dealings, secrecy and of course pilferage from developing
countries into rich developed ones.

In fact, some finance experts and economists believe tax havens to be a
conspiracy of the western world against the poor countries. By allowing
the proliferation of tax havens in the twentieth century, the western
world explicitly encourages the movement of
scarce capital from the developing countries to the rich. In March
2005, the Tax Justice Network (TJN) published a research finding
demonstrating that $11.5 trillion of personal wealth was held offshore
by rich individuals across the globe.

The findings estimated that a large proportion of this wealth was
managed from some 70 tax havens. Further, augmenting these studies of
TJN, Raymond Baker — in his widely celebrated book titled
‘Capitalism’ s Achilles Heel: Dirty Money and How to Renew the
Free Market System’ — estimates that at least $5 trillion have
been shifted out of poorer countries to the West since the mid-1970.

It is further estimated by experts that one per cent of the world’s
population holds more than 57 per cent of total global wealth, routing
it invariably through these tax havens.

How much of this is from India is anybody’s guess ...????
