Am I the only one who has attended a hell lot of interviews and still continuing the older job process?
Every time I feel bad about myself and heart broken and think why does none of them think I am eligible enough to get a job? Is it because of my technical skills? Is it because of my classic looks, my age, my inability to impress the interviewer or my hard luck, bad fate? I think hard, I complain and I cry over it and in the end it all makes a big ball of immature complex which I bury inside me.
I tried attending interviews for around 6 months now and still haven't able to crack anything. So here I am writing a blog, on how to crack an interview. I am taking a pledge that I will try sincerely and will prepare hard for the interview. And whatever I am doing, I will record it here. Let us wait and watch if I am able to get into a new job as I like. Today it is 3rd January, a Tuesday. Usually we don't start anything on a Tuesday, a (only) superstitious belief I and Karthik have, which I want to break. Hopefully this blog will go well. Prayers to the almighty...
How to prepare "Tell me about yourself"
Thinking about the past, I think I failed to give any interesting facts about me and sound like an ordinary person.

So yes, here you go..
First of all, I would gather the positive points about me. One needs be really positive and honest at the same time to bring about these.

2. have contributed to innovation (suggested an innovative idea. should I elaborate on the idea? )
3. have conducted team games.
4. enjoy self learning. have been both a team player and individual contributor.
