Disappointed by Parker
A so called US based company Parker had come for the campus placements.Highly disappointed with their process...
Making us wait till 2 pm for the written test with their flights reachin late(so much for punctuality)
Worse still was the way the interviews were conducted...I was the last person to be interviewed and had to wait till 4pm for that.
The people from the other department had been interviewed on an average of 30 mins...It does feel bad when you are not given a chance to showcase yourself.Mine lasted just around 15 mins...Without any technical questions,all this didn't make any sense...The HR's didn't ask many questions.Rather I was asked to tell the questions the other people who went before me were asked.
Still I feel I need to develop the ability to impress the interviewers in the limited time I get be it 10 mins or 30 mins...Looking forward to doing my best in the next interview.

Cognizant calling
Got the first placement this season: Cognizant.
Had a great day today.Interview went superb.Was asked general stuff and some basic questions in mechanical.
Useful advise for people appearing in interviews will be to be confident throughout the interview and never show that you get tensed or nervous.Frankness and honesty are the key.Guess work will not be serving any purpose.
Looking forward to getting some core offer also!!!

CSK wins IPL 4
The Super Kings have done it finally...They've lifted the coveted IPL trophy.It has been an all round team effort.But feel sorry for the Mumbai Indians who've played great cricket throughout the tournament.Next year Sachin won't be taking it easy...He'll lift the world cup for us and the IPL trophy for his Mumbai Indians!!!

Happy new year!!!
Happy Tamil and Bengali new year to everyone...
But this day is significant for me in more ways than one...Its precisely on this day last year that something shocking happened.So shocking that it will knock the winds out of anyone who encounter such a situation... A person doesn't call you for a year....A person doesn't respond to you...A person whom you' thought your friend betrays you...What can be more shocking than that...
The word "friendship" is getting diluted these days...Something important I've learnt in the last one year...This blog is not meant to be a place to garner sympathy from others.So I won't be going into any more details...

Facebook precedes Blogging
well the reason i'm not blogging much these days is due to the emergence of Facebook.Its much easier to reach a wider section of people posting daily updates on oneself than writing a para on Blogpost which not many read...
Lack of readership is another reason which discourages me from blogging.
Anyway I wont be disappearing from Blogpost.Will update about the important happenings in my life here from time to time...

97th Indian Science Congress
Had a superb time at the 97th ISC at Trivandrum...
Apart from the science exhibits and lectures the most exciting part of my whole trip was the buffet breakfast lunch and dinner provided there...
Was lucky enough to have got the hostel accomodation...The place for the gastronomic delights was just a stone's throw away...
Coming to the poster presentation which we did,it went off very well with many senior ISRO officials appreciating our work!!!But the best thing I took away from the conference was the spirit of participation.An old man aged around 70 had come from Kolkata with his design of a ladder mechanism to climb trees.Its precisely these things which inspire us and motivate us to come up with something better each time we get onto the field!
The train journey was all the more exciting with 2 of our friends having unreserved tickets playing cops n robbers with the TT...But at last they managed to sleep in our compartment.SVCEians don't accept defeat whether its a professor or TT...Victory is always ours...
