- No matter how knowledgeable you think you are, if there comes a choice between you and a person with same or slightly less knowledge but from a circuit branch, bye bye to you. You won’t get that job.
- No matter how outstanding you think you are, if you haven’t had any experience in the skill (technical) which company is looking for, you won’t get selected.
- Good grades sometimes lead to bad outcomes because good grades signal the interviewer that you might leave the company and go for Masters or MBA. I faced this in my interview as well, so be prepared.
- The Training and Placement Cell is a very powerful authority in those 15 days of placement season. I won’t write much, but just read it again, “most powerful”.
- Giving an interview is like a stand-up comedy act, you wait till the first laugh and everything takes off from there. Similarly, when you get your first “good answer, let’s move on” response from the interviewer, all anxiety, stress, nervousness gets over. This is usually a good sign.
- The female inequality which prevailed in the world few decades back (and still some) is very bad for a male candidate sitting for placements because companies have hire more girls to improve their gender ratio. You have to live with this reality, period.
- If you don’t believe in luck, I welcome you here to witness the placement season in an IIT, you’ll start believing in it after that.
