THE “INTERVIEW” AND “EXAMINATION”  ARE THE  MOST TERRIFC SITUATIONS FOR A CANDIDATE, WHERE HE HAVE TO UNDERGO A MENTAL “UPSETNESS”–.WHAT IS THIS INTERVIEW? ? THE AUTHENTICATE DICTIONARIES ELOBRATES WORD “INTER” WITH MEANINGS AS –“BETWEEN” OR “AMONG” OR “PLACE IN A GRAVE OR TOMB” ! WHEREAS “VIEW” IS DESCRIBED AS “A WAY OF, REGARDING SITUATION OR TOPIC – THE VISUAL PERCEPT OF A REGION – THE ACT OF LOOKING OR SEEING OR OBESERVING (TO GET A BETTER VIEW) AND LASTLY THE RANGE OF EYE    ( THEY WERE SOON OUT OF VIEW).SO WE CAN TRANSLATE “INTERVIEW” AS  “THE ACT OF LOOKING OR SEEING / OBSERVING TO GET A BETTER VIEW SITTING AMONG OR IN FRONT IN DIRECT VISIBILITY”.

 

PSYCHOLOGICALLY, WHEN A PERSON VISITS OR GOES TO A NEW PLACE    (SPECIALLY FOR JOB) HE FEELS SOME FEAR (NOT FROM INTERVIEWER, BUT FROM THE “SITUATION” WHERE HE MAY GET JOB OR CAN BE REJECTED.THIS FEAR TURNS INTO A “HYPER PHOBIC” CONDITION AMOUNTING TO HEIGHTS OF “UNEASE” , WHEREAS INTERVIEWER IS AT COMFORTABLE , STABLE POSITION (AS HE IS ON JOB) BUT INTERVIEWEE AT AN “ODD” POSITION.NONE CAN DENY THIS FACT THAT INTERVIEWEE IS AT A “WEAKER” POSITION AS COMPARED TO INTERVIEWER , THIS DIFFERNCE NATURALLY CONFUSES CANDIDATE , WHICH PRODUCES  “EMBARRASSMENT”.EVEN A  P.H.D MAY CONFUSE IN FRONT OF A GRADUATE ( SUBJECTED AND CONDITIONAL WITH CANDIDATE FINANCIAL BACKGROUND ( HOW MUCH NEEDY HE IS ) , THE “NEED” DECIDE THE APPARENT STATUS OF CANDIDATE., MORE NEEDY MEANS “MORE  BE EMBARRASSED AND CONFUSED” UNDER THIS STAE OF “UNCERTAINTY” MAY CAUSE FAILURE IN INTERVIEW.( THIS SITUATION APPLIES ONLY UPON NEW CANDIDATES , APPEARING  FIRST TIME FOR INTERVIEW)

 

LET AS CATEGORIES THE PERSONALITIES.REFFERING TO MANY NEWS PAPERS (CRIME REPORTS) , THOSE PEOPLE INVOLVED IN FRAUDS , CHEATING , FAKE DOCUMENTATION WERE FOUND MORE INTELLIGENT , SHARP , AND ACTIVE AS COMPARED TO NORMAL.JUST FOR EXAMPLE  IF SUCH CATEGORY PERSON APPEARS FOR INTERVIEW , WILL HE FAIL ? ? ABSOLUTELY NOT. BECAUSE INTERVIEWER WILL FIND HIM EXTRA CONFIDENT, VERY SWEET IN TALKING, ACTIVE ND SMART IN PERSONALITY! ! THEN WHAT WILL BE FATE OF THAT COMPANY WHERE RECRUITED? ? (JUST TYPE “ FRAUD BY EMPLOYEES” ON GOOGLE TO GET EVIDENCE IN SUPPORT OF MY DISCUSSION).

 

I STILL REMEMBER WHEN I APPLED FOR THE POST OF A “MANAGER” IN AN ELECTRONIC EQUIPMENT MANUFACTURING COMPANY IN 1984.THERE WERE TWO INTERVIEWER (BOTH BROTHERS AND OWNERS). THEY ASKED ME WHETHER I KNOW “ABC’ TILL END? ? I SMILED AND SOUNDED A-Z . NEXT QUESTION WAS “ WHY YU WANT TO JOIN THIS COMPANY”? MY REPLY WAS “BECAUSE YOU ADVERTISED” .I DNT WANT TO WASTE THE TIME OF READERS IN WRITING THE FOOLISH QUESTIONS THEY ASKED.

 

IT IS NOT END, LET ME DISCUSS OTHER INCIDENT TOO.” JOINED AUTOMOTIVE COMPANY OF HIGH REPUTE IN GULF. AFTER SOME TIME THAT COMPANY ADVERTISED THE POST OF A “MANAGER” IN ITS SISTER CONCERN DEALING IN SOME OTHER BRAND OF AUTOMOTIVE PARTS (INTERNAL VACANCY).I APPLED FOR THAT ON A SIMPLE PRESCRIBED FORM.I WAS CALLED FOR AN “INTERVIEW”, IN INTERVIEW BOARD THREE MEMBERS WERE THERE , G.M , SENIOR MANAGER AND A “H.R SPECIALIST” I WAS NOT A STRANGER OF ALL THAT THREE PEOPLE. THE FIRST QUESTION ASKED BY SENIOR MANGER WAS “ HOW YOU WILL PROMOTE SALE “ ( THE POST WAS FOR MANAGER AND ABSOLUTELY NOT FOR SALES MANAGER) I TOLD HIM ELEVEN POINTS IN WRITING , HE FORCED ME TO EXPALIN POINTWISE.ANYWAY I EXPLAINED THOROUGHLY.NOW GM TURNED TO ME AND ASKED “ WHY YOU WANT TO LEAVE YOUR EXISTING JOB ? ? I TOLD HIM FOR BETTER PROSPECTS .. THAT SPECIALIST WAS LOOKING AT MY FACE AND LASTLY THAT “BURTRAINED RUSSEL” ASKED “ MR…….HOW YOU PERCIVE IF YOU GET THIS JOB ? ? I SIZZLED , LOOKED AT HIS FACE AND REPLIED ‘ PLEASED”.THAT INTERVIEW REMAINED ONLY INTERVIEW , NO REPLY FROM H.R.D , OR MY BOSS ( ACCEPTANCE OR REJECTION) AFTER SOME TIMES I CAME TO KNOW THAT SUPPLIER COMPANY HAVE CANCELLED THEIR FRANCHISE , G.M AND MANGER ARE NO MORE WHEREAS “SPECIALIST” HAVE JOINED ANOTHER COMPANY.

 

THE SAME COMPANY IN WHICH I WAS WORKING , ADVERTISED HALF PAGE ADD IN A LOCAL ENGLISH NEWS PAPER, INVITING APPLICATION FOR “SALES SUPERVISOR”.HUNDREDS OF APPLICATIONS RECEIVED , INTERVIEWD, AND FINALLY SELECTED A PERSON., SON OF GM CLOSE FRIEND LIVING A FEW YARDS DISTANCE FROM HIS HOME PLACE.ALL CAN JUDGE THE ORIGON OF THAT INTERVIEW. IS IT LOYALITY TO COMPANY ? ? IS IT NOT MISUSE OF POWER OR  BREACH OF TRUST ? ?

 

I AM OF THE OPINION , THAT INTERVIEW IS A GET -TOGETHER SESSION OF CANDIDATE AND EMPLOYEER , WHERE INTERVIEWER HAVE TO ADJUGE THE PERSONALITY , APPEARANCE , DRESSING , WALKING AND CONVERSATIONAL STYLE OF CANDIDATE..INSTEAD OF “STUPID QUESTION” INTERVIEWER SHOULD GIVE HIM A TOPIC , ASKING TO WRITE FEW LINES ON THAT SUBJECT.THIS PRACTICE WILL ENLIGHT THE CALIBRE , WRITING POWER , EXPRESSION , ART OF COMMUNICATION , WRITING GRIP ETC ETC.

 

THE BEST TECHNIQUE TO WIN INTERVIEW AT 100 % IS :-

 

A REPUTED COMPANY ADVERTISED FOR POST OF A FINANCIAL ANALYST. PACKAGE WAS HANSOME , SO NATURALLY MANY APPLICATIONS RECEIVED.THE INTERVIEWER WAS CALLING ONE BY ONE AND SKING A SIPLE QUESTION “ PLEASE TELL WHAT IS TOTAOL OF TWO PLUS TWO

( 2 + 2 = ? ) ALL TOLD FOUR —————-HE DIRECTED ALL TO SIT OUTSIDE AND WAIT — LAST CANDIDATE LEFT, HE WAS CALLED FOR AN INTERVIEW , AND ASKED THE SAME QUESTION AS WHAT IS TOTAL OF TWO PLUS TWO ? ?

THAT CANDIDATE REMAINED SILENT , LEFET HIS SEAT , HAD A ROUND OF ROOM , CLOSED ENTRANCE DOOR , ASSURED THAT NONE IS PRESENT EVEN NEAR BY ROOM —- CAME CLOSE TO THE INTERVIEWER AND WHISPERED “ SIR , LET THE TOTAL GO TO HELL , ONLY INFORM WHAT TOTAL  YOU WANT ! ! WHICH CAN SATISFY YOU” !  

AND THAT CANDIDATE WAS SELECTED IMMEDIATLEY
