Hey Lalit,

I think the way u answered was just perfect. Atleast i felt that you have very clear understanding and analysis of what you read,observed and interpreted. No wild guesses, no imaginary thoughts, no regular do good visions. All your thoughts are crystal clear and very practical. If i am not wrong you must be on board soon. Lets see how many of rest of aspirants have got this clarity in thought and practicality. Generally i don't wish all the best. I only watch best things happening. Suresh

harsh said...

dear rajesh...

on reading your interview , i can understand that you were asked hell lot of questions and that too on different topics and areas... it appeared that interview was not channelised properly and lost momentum and interest at some point... but I don't see you losing any thing as you answered accordingly and were polite to deny where ever you didnt know ...

Wish you all the best for your final selection ...
