The Biigggg Interview

Was on the way to a friend's place yesterday, and got to see this company again. Ok, let me tell about this.
This unwanted interview took place around a month back when it was only 5 days I had joined my present job into IT Marketing. When I was idle I had sent my resume to a MNC Co. belonging to the Finance Industry. My profile satisfied their requirement. (Statistics in Graduation & Finance in MBA…had Marketing too). I had both in my resume.

Let me make it clear to everyone. I hate finance field like anything.

Ok, let me put in Javed’s English as in ‘Salaam Namaste’.
I ........ the hates working in finance fields…..(sorry..)….eeggjhaktly…” (I have become a big fan of his unique English since then, need to take classes).

I had been seeing my dad in that field since childhood & even now…so developed an allergy towards it..allergens being the financial terms. My name was short listed for the written test. Though not interested, I gave the test, which was for one and half hour. Again my name was short-listed!!! Infact I was sure, it would be. I was given the date for the interview. I wished that shouldn’t have happened. Called up 'R', my friend, to say about this & said to him that I won't be going for it, because... not interested in that field.

“Have you gone crazy?? How can u afford to ignore such a big Company & that too an initial package of 2.5- 3 lakhs?? Listen to me, you go & give the interview.. that’s it…
For the respect I have for him, I decided to attend it. Took the leave for half day from my work, waited for an hour, then came my turn. There were 2 interviewers, one, a beautiful young lady and the other a gentleman. They welcomed me with sweet smiles. Finally had a SEAT, on which I never wished to be on. They first made me feel comfortable… as it happens in every interview. After the basic questions were over…..
Interviewer1: Ok Preeti… now shall we proceed with the technical questions of finance??
My heart sank…missed a beat… what all…I very well knew what questions they would be…really..
Interviewer2: What is Capital Budgeting?
I knew the answer to it, and so answered it Jhat Se…(felt amazed at myself for answering it).
I1: What is depreciation?
Wonders and Wonders!!!! Answered this too…
I2: There are 4 methods in depreciation, what are they?
Me: errrrr…. I don’t remember them…(yes, how could I, it was almost one and a half year that I read about it..)
I1: Ok Preeti… try to answer at least two ….
It seemed to me like, if I don’t answer her questions…the company would stop functioning..
Some more questions like liquidity ratio..that ratio..this ratio…forwards, futures, options were fired at me. I answered some and skipped some. That chap even asked me about costing and taxation, which was out of my reach, ‘coz never had that subjects.
After some ‘err…’s & ‘sorry ma’am’, THEY ACCEPTED THE DEFEAT…
I1: Ok Preeti, are you comfortable with marketing?
Me: (happily…) yes ma’am…very much…
They asked 4-6 questions and I answered all of them.
From the time I had sat on that chair, I was looking as to when I will leave it.
“Ok Preeti”, she said, “ if your name is short listed again, you need to come once again…..for the HR interview.
I very well knew that I wouldn’t get selected, because the company doesn’t want to get into losses..
Thanking them, I was out of the “DEN” in a few minutes, didn’t wished to look back, but did so, ‘coz the building was magnificent.

All About Boys and Gals

I found this forwarded message very interesting, and I am sure its very TRUE

All about a Girl:

When she is quiet, millions of things are running in her mind.
When she is not arguing, she is thinking deeply.
When she stares at you, she is wondering why you are lying.
When she calls you everyday, she is seeking your attention.
When she sms you everyday, she wants you to reply atleast once.
When she says "I Love You", she means it.
When she says "I Miss You", no one in this world can miss you more than her.


All about a Boy :
When he is quiet, he is bored.
When he is not arguing, he is fast asleep.
When he stares at u, he is wondering what the hell u r talking about.
when he sms's u everyday, he knows he is not getting charged.
when he says "I Miss You", there must be nothing good no tv.
when he says "I Love You", he has no idea what he is talking about. ( so much true....)
