WHAT IS YOUR AMBITION? WHAT ARE YOUR CAREER

EXPECTATIONS? WHERE DO YOU SEE YOURSELF 3 YEARS

DOWN THE LINE? IF YOU GET SELECTED IN TCS, WHAT

YOU WANT TO BE IN NEXT 5 YEARS ? WHAT WILL YOU DO IF YOU ARE NOT

SELECTED?


“ FIRST OF ALL, I WOULD LIKE TO BECOME A PREFERRED AND PERMANENT EMPLOYEE; LEARNING EXTENSIVELY TO CREATE MY VALUE THEN GRADUALLY EARN MY EXPERIENCE & INCREASE MY KNOWLEDGE & THUS THE IMPORTANCE IN THE ORGANIZATION. HENCE, 3 YRS DOWN THE LINE, OR SUPERVISORY POSTION, I WOULD LIKE TO BE SOMEWHERE NEAR A TL & 5YEARS SOME JUNIOR MANAGERIAL LEVEL ASSIGNMENT.


“I would be joining the company as a fresher so I expect to earn some nice experience and become a permanent employee, and increase my importance in the company. Then probably a Team Leader, Project Leader, Project Manager….and so on; probably, one day, I end up a key important decision maker or as part of Senior Management Team”.


WHY THEY ASK….?IF YOU SAY CHESS BE PREPARED FOR

FURTHER QUESTIONS LIKE…..CHESS HOW IS IT SCORED IN CHESS? HOW MANY SQUARES ARE THERE

ON A CHESS BOARD?


IF YOU SAY TENNIS….

TENNIS HOW MANY SETS ARE PLAYED IN

TENNIS? HOW IS IT SCORED IN TENNIS? WHAT IS GAME POINT, MATCH POINT, DEUCE? WHO IS YOUR FAVORITE TENNIS PLAYER

& WHY?


IF MUSIC IS YOUR HOBBY…..MUSIC

WHY DIDN’T YOU CHOOSE MUSIC AS A PROFESSION?

WHY NOT CLASSICAL MUSIC? WHY POP OR WHY CLASSICAL OR SEMI CLASSICAL?


“MUSIC IS A HOBBY AND NOT A CAREER PASSION. WE ARE HAPPY IF WE MAKE OUR CAREER IN THINGS WE ARE PASSIONATE ABOUT. FOR EXAMPLE, EVERYONE IS INTERESTED IN LISTENING TO MUSIC, BUT ALL CAN’T BE A MUSICIAN SINCE IT IS AN INTEREST, NOT A PASSION.”


WHY HAVE YOU SHIFTED FROM EC TO SOFTWARE?

WHAT IS THE GUARANTEE THAT YOU WILL CONTINUE IN THE SOFTWARE INDUSTRY AND YOU MAY SHIFT TO EC SAYING THAT YOU LOST INTEREST IN SOFTWARE?

DON’T YOU THINK THAT TWO YEARS SERVICE BOND IS UNFAIR
