Campus interview encounter



Was recently out for a campus interview and stunning visuals of the college buildings were awe-inspiring. The Chairman of the College might decide to have his next 4 generations unemployed and still would lead a royal family life!.. yes! even if petrol prices raise up to Rs.1000 per litre ( which eventually will happen - Someday ) , that would not stop them from filling gases for their Mercedes. Filthy Rich!
Of Course, Nothing is sold free! It would have taken hard work and greatness in Smart work to be in the place where it is now!

ah! Campus is completely Wi-fi(ed) and yet no one found in We Chat or Tango!(Interesting! ). With every kid in town has a smart phone and whats app, was like the cheapest application. Buzzing sound was always on and this campus had people from arts to Vegetable cutter. Without any hunch, Canteen was crowded and Messy! Of course not always people visit canteen for food (think about your own college days! ).

Dude! Bro! Maacha! Honey! Dear! Wanna! Gonna! ..(those were some of the commonly picked up words from the atmosphere) from Kanyakumari to J&K ( may be even beyond) people from all walks of life are here in this college. Admission to this institution demands parents to shell out their printed notes in Lakhs.. 

During Test Announcements! We said " Listen Guys!, Absolutely!!!!! no Mobile Phones, leave your bags outside , no bits of papers , you will enter the examination hall with the application form, pen or pencil to workout, ID Card and Calc and Any other Doubts???? "

Intelligence has no limits! "Sir, is wallet allowed??” *blink* and thank god he stopped with it.

Hospitality was good and great especially when they served me 2 cups teas in the same evening (Of course smaller cups) Morning Breakfast had Pongal ( I think it is umpma – not a easy guess though! ) and Idli had creativity (wish, they should not have tried creativity in idli ).Idli had some half cooked Thoor Dhal on the top and we sent it back to the soil by wasting it.

The Sales man at Cavin's milk strikes good performance rating this year, this was evident when they served all the favored drinks from Cavins (on all the 3 days of the campus interviews).
Personal Interviews : Everyone had a common answers, some of them were “No Sir, I do not know anything on Programming” , “Yes Sir, I know basics of ‘C’ & ‘C++’ ” ( for the benefit of knowledge C&C++ is part of 6th std text book Syllabus)

Sometimes, the stress is on the interviewer more than the interviewee (Students). While you expect an answer from the candidate, they twist with their innovate facts, creativity and some of the one liners are as follows

“JRD Tata is the CEO of TATAs” - Thank god! He Wasn’t gonna hear this!!
“TCS is a Consulting Company where you manage people and Clients”, - As if people have no other better job!
 “TCS was found in 1907” ah! IT revolution between World Wars! Amazing!

“I am a bio medical student but I am interested in IT and I do not know anything on programming. I can perform a role of managing people “ – Basically I want a monthly salary by blaming people!!!

-Blue Highlight - Read as my mind!

Ok! Fun’s Apart … We did meet some Passionate and Young minds. They knew each and every word they spoke and most important, they were honest. Smartly Dressed and Neat Attire, Pleasant Greetings and Very importantly Good Grades! They are Bright, Vivacious, and Innovative and want the world to see them. 

Feel Free to Float your feedback, excuse on any errors and i would appreciate your critical response. Just Stating to Write.
