part-2

The climate of the GD was quite peculiar .The students who never used to speak a word in the classes or presentations, were roaring in the GD. Everyone had killing eyes and was ready to kill each other for a chance to speak. People didn’t want to leave even a single opportunity to speak . Even I used to be the same in the previous GDs,because that was what my colleagues had told me. But this time I didn’t feel like doing the same thing as I was pretty sure that I would be eliminated . But being a part of GD , you are supposed to speak something .Otherwise you would be asked to speak . So I thought it was better to speak by my own and I repeated the same words which were spoken by others. It lasted for 30 min. and everyone was happy because everyone got the opportunity to speak. I , one of them was thinking about new movie loaded in my treasure land i.e. my laptop . But I thought it would be ok to wait for the result. Then I would be able to watch movies, more relaxed. After half an hour , a volunteer appeared with a list and started announcing the shortlisted candidates' name one by one . Suddenly he called my name. I was confused whether he called out my name or someone else's . I checked the list again and found my name was really there. Well…. I who was from finance background, who never learnt anything about the selling was going to have a marketing interview. Moreover I was worried that my second half of the day was going to be wasted. But I was lucky as my no was 2 in the interview list. I felt more relaxed because it is always better to finish off the things early on which you don’t have any control. First interview lasted for 40 min and I was thinking what these ING people are asking because even if they ask me about my whole life , it would be finished in 30 min . Finally my No came and they asked me to sit down . My interview started with the most repeated question in the history of the interview. “ TELL ME ABOUT YOURSELF” and I was thinking that when everything is there in my resume, why these guys are asking me. We engineers/ MBA people are so prepared with this question that even while sleeping we would be able to give the reply . So I vomited all the things from my native place to current education . They asked me about my area of interest . I don’t know what made me say that, but i said my area of interest is watching movie.. First he was shocked because you are supposed to say some thing heavy like reading novel or writing but then he asked about my latest movie. After hearing the story he asked me if I had any question to ask and again I repeated another blunder mistake by not asking any question because you are supposed to ask some hi – funda questions,if given a chance. I came out from the interview room and felt relaxed because I was sure that I am not going to be selected. How can a movie story get you a selection ! I went to my room and started watching movie. After 3-4 hours I woke up without knowing that I had got slept. I realized that I was supposed to go for the result . I woke-up half heartedly and moved towards the college. When I reached there , i got to know that still last candidate is giving the interview . Some one told me it would take another one hour for the result to come out . I went to the canteen and asked for tea . Suddenly I heard the voices .
