Interview Tips:

? Your dress-up reflects your choice, how much you respect yourself and your professionalism.

? Check your resume thoroughly for sentence framing, grammar, spelling mistakes, correctness of information, consistency etc.

? Carry at least 2 copies of your resume in a neat folder.

When I was in 12th standard, I was not at all prepared for my exams because of ill health and everybody told me that I will fail. But just seven days before the exam I worked hard and was confident of clearing my exam and I cleared it with flying colours."

Do not lie: There are very high chances that you will be nervous in an interview for various reasons. If you put forward a wrong information ("I have 7 years work experience in Sales" when you have only 2) you will have a tough time justifying if the interviewer asks many questions. On the other hand, if you don't know something, admit it gracefully. "I am sorry sir, I do not have a 50 wpm speed but 30 wpm on computers, but if you can give me 10 days time, I can definitely reach that speed."
