We segregate the resumes on the basis of the faculties i.e. for Arts students, Commerce students, Home Science students, Catering Students etc. Maintaining a segregated database facilitates us to immediately send the CVs as per the Industry’s requirement. Aptitude tests are given to see if you can be trained to do this job. It is merely an assessment of your fit to a particular job-training program. It is not an assessment of your total life experiences or skills. The employer is merely trying to determine a fit between you & a specific job group. Keep in mind that if you feel the test is an excessive strain or peculiar in logic, the job may also strain you in a similar way. GROUP DISCUSSION The purpose of Group Discussion is to find out whether you possess the critical qualities needed to become an effective manager. A Group Discussion test you in the following : Body language Communication Skills Self Confidence Team Skills S.N.D.T. WOMEN’S UNIVERSITY 18 ANNUAL REPORT 2006 - 2007 Listening Ability Time Management Ability to present your views logically One of the most critical challenges of coming across as a good participant in a discussion is to have the ability to see things from other person’s viewpoint and respect it even if you strongly disagree. A Group Discussion is a wonderful challenge because you have a maximum of 20 minutes to show if you have it in you to become an effective manager. INTERVIEW TECHNIQUES These are some of the suggestions for facing interviews : Offer your hand, and give a firm handshake, a pleasant smile and a positive and confident attitude. Introduces yourself. There is nothing worse than people playing with their hair, clicking pen tops, tapping feet or unconsciously touching parts of the body. Look the interviewer in the eye. Take a seat facing the interviewer. Be sure that you are in a comfortable position. Look at the interviewer directly. Sit up straight. Use good grammar & a friendly tome. Never answer just “yes” or “no” to a question. Always clarify, expand on your answers. Be prepared to ask a few questions. Do not monopolize the interviewer’s time, particularly if you know they have appointments scheduled following your interview. Do ask thoughtful questions. Don’t ask about salary and interests this can be discussed when the company is definitely interested in you. While giving answers to questions : Be concise : Listen to the questions carefully and answer to the point. An interviewee rambling on is likely to turn off the interviewer. Provide Examples : Support your contentions with examples. Think of recent strong strategic examples of work you’ve done, then when the question is asked, answer with specifics, not in generalities. Be Honest : It is always better to state the truth than beating about the bush. If you don’t know something then state the fact. S.N.D.T. WOMEN’S UNIVERSITY 19 ANNUAL REPORT 2006 - 2007 The Department of Students’ Welfare has organized many Campus interviews this year.
