Surely, there is much more going on in your
mind than just the final semesters ! This is the
real ‘Make or Break’ career defining time after
the rigorous two years of the MBA grind. As
dream companies visit your campus, your friends
become your competitors, and you would
wonder as to how to get that ‘break’ before
others do in MBA Placements.

Research
Do not be caught off guard. Take the initiative to
know as much as you can about the company,
its products, its promoters, top management
and its recent news. By being aware, you create
an impression of being seriously interested in
‘this’ company’s job rather than just getting job
with ‘any’ company.

Rehearse
Practice is the key. Practice role plays with a person who has
attended/taken interviews before and ask him/her to offer you
constructive feedback. Work on the areas for improvement and go
through the practice feedback loop again to firm up your learning's.
List down the Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ’s) and prepare your
answers. You can also record the rehearsal and see it yourself to get
a feel of how you ‘appear’ to the interviewer. Work on the areas for
improvement that you identify.

Dress code
You don’t need to wear expensive
clothes to impress the interviewer. Being
dressed in business formals is a standard
expectation. Wearing clothes that shape
well on you will boost your confidence.

Examples
Give credence to your claims! Make sure to come up
with examples from your past – it could be your
excellence in academics, sports, or extracurricular
activities that illustrate your behavioural strengths. For
instance, being president of your college, secretary of
a club, or member of a committee must be
mentioned to strengthen your candidature.

Summarize
The success of your summer project might
be the yardstick of your performance.
Though you might have a lot to narrate,
prepare a few points to describe and
highlight your project’s objective and what
you did to achieve the desired results.

Calmness
It’s all in your mind! So be calm, stay focused and don’t fret.
There might be a lot of anxiety before you enter the
interview room. Take deep breaths and focus on the
interviewer’s questions. Make a conscious effort to speak
slowly and Listen carefully. Give yourself sometime to collect
your thoughts before answering questions. You may use
fillers to buy yourself more time.

Confident and enthusiastic
Your body language is as important as your verbal
communication. So walking straight, holding your
head high and giving a firm handshake all add to a
positive start to the interview. Keeping eye contact
throughout the interview, leaning a bit forward, a
positive nod when required add to show your level of
interest in the interview.

Honesty
In interviews, honesty is indeed the best policy! When
an interviewer asks you something for which you
don’t have an answer, it’s much better to admit it than
to pretend otherwise. If you have committed a
mistake in the past, it’s ok to accept it and mention
your learning's and what you have done to not repeat
this again. The employers are not looking at someone
who knows all the answers but are surely not looking
for someone who is not honest.

Inquisitive
When an interviewer gives you an opportunity to ask
questions, don’t ever Say ‘No Questions’. Interviewer
wants to know whether you are interested in the
details of the job, the company or the department
you would be working for. So be prepared with
intelligent thoughtful questions that will reflect your
interest for the job.

Punctuality
The first impression is the last impression! The
importance of punctuality needs no further
emphasis. Not reaching the interview on time
sends out wrong signals; you set off on the
wrong foot. Make sufficient allowance for traffic
snarls and arrive at the venue at least 15 minutes
before appointed time.
