My first interview with over confidence

2 Years back i attended an interview. Sorry forgot the name of the company but it was in hyderabad. I always dreamt of getting a good job & i always felt that i can easily get one. With that over confidence I went for my first interview. Crossed technical around a bit hard next is HR interview.

They asked me the first question ” Tell me about your self ? ” My body started shivering. I was not able to give answers in a cool manner. Finally they kicked me out from that round..

What I learned from my first interview..
1: Over confidence never works. I need to focus on how to answer all these questions.
2: I started writing everything in a note book. Practiced every day by giving answers to my self & to walls & in front of mirror.
3: Purchased a nice book on “How to face interviews & GD “ practiced a lot every day.

I don’t know what happened after 45 days of practice I attended my next interview in GOOGLE for the position Adwords representative. After few days I got call from google that I got selected . Wow what an amazing moment in my life. I was happy like anything.

My suggestions to all : Never think that getting a job is very easy. We need to sharpen our skills before we are going to face our interview & aptitude exam.

1 : write down your strengths & weaknesses on the paper . Work every day constantly to improve your skills
2: Follow few good books & actively participate in this kind of forums.
3: If you practice well enough confidence will come automatically
4: Never over estimate your self & under estimate your self.
5: Learn from other people failures & success.
