Below are the Interview Questions, which were asked in HR Round.....

No one will GET second chance to impress....

Very very Impressive Questions and Answers..... ...

Question 1:

You are driving along in your car on a wild, stormy night,
it's raining heavily, when suddenly you pass by a bus stop, and you see
three people waiting for a bus:

An old lady who looks as if she is about to die.
An old friend who once saved your life.
The perfect partner you have been dreaming about.

Which one would you choose to offer a ride to, knowing very well that

there could only be one passenger in your car?

This is a moral/ethical dilemma that was once actually used as part of a
job application.

* You could pick up the old lady, because she is going to die, and thus
you should save her first;

* or you could take the old friend because he once saved your life, and
this would be the perfect chance to! pay him back.

* However, you may never be able to find your perfect mate again.
The candidate who was hired (out of 200 applicants) had no trouble coming

up with his answer. Guess what was his answer?

He simply answered:

"I would give the car keys to my Old friend and let him take the lady to
the hospital. I would stay behind and wait for the bus with the partner
of my dreams."

Sometimes, we gain more if we are able to give up our stubborn thought
limitations. Never forget to "Think Outside of the Box."


Question 2:

What will you do if I run away with your sister?"
The candidate who was selected answered " I will not get a better match
for my sister than you sir"

Question 3:

Interviewer (to a student girl candidate) - What is one morning you woke up & found that you were pregnant.

Girl - I will be very excited and take an off, to celebrate with my husband.

Normally an unmarried girl will be shocked to hear this, but she managed
it well. Why I should think it in the wrong way, she said later when asked

Question 4:

Interviewer: He ordered a cup of coffee for the candidate. Coffee arrived
kept before the candidate, then he asked what is before you?

Candidate: Instantly replied "Tea"

He got selected.

You know how and why did he say "TEA" when he knows very well that coffee
was kept before.

(Answer: The question was "What is before you (U - alphabet) Reply was

"TEA" ( T - alphabet)

Alphabet "T" was before Alphabet "U"


Question 5:

Where Lord Rama would have celebrated his "First Diwali"?
People will start thinking of Ayodya, Mitila [Janaki's place], Lanka
etc...

But the logic is, Diwali was a celebrated as a mark of Lord Krishna
Killing N arakasura. In Dusavataar, Krishnavatha ar comes after
Raamavathaar.

So, Lord Rama would not have celebrated the Diwali At all!


Question 6:

The interviewer asked to the candidate "This is your last question of the
interview. Please tell me the exact position of the center of this table
where u have kept your files."

Candidate confidently put one of his finger at some point at the table
and told that this was the central point at the table.

Interviewer asked how did u get to know that this being the central point
of this table, then he answers quickly that

"sir u r not likely to ask any more question, as it was the last question
that u promised to ask....."

And hence, he was selected as because of his quick-wittedness. .......


This is What Interviewer expects from the Interviewee. ...

"THINK OUT OF BOX"

Roshan hui raat vo aasmaan se utar ke zameen pe aaya
Roshan hui raat mariyam ka beta mohabbat ke sandese laaya
Duniya mein vo meherbaan saath laaya sachchayee ke ujaale
Duniya mein banke maseeyah vo aaya ki humko toofan se bachaale
Roshan hui raat vo aasmaan se utar ke zameen pe aaya
Utar ke zameen pe aaye
Roshan hui raat mariyam ka beta mohabbat ke sandese laaya
Mohabbat ke sandese laaya

Vo aaya seene se unko lagaane jo hain yahaan beshaare
Vo aaye baahon mein unko chhupaane jo hain yahaan gum ke maare
Roshan hui raat jab jagmagaaya poorab dalan ka sitaara
Roshan hui raat humne khuda se mariyam ne sunli pukaara
Roshan hui raat vo aasmaan se utar ke zameen pe aaya
Utar ke zameen pe aaye
Roshan hui raat mariyam ka beta mohabbat ke sandese laaya
Mohabbat ke sandese laaya
Roshan hui raat vo aasmaan se utar ke zameen pe aaya
Utar ke zameen pe aaye
Roshan hui raat mariyam ka beta mohabbat ke sandese laaya
Mohabbat ke sandese laaya

As the dream of most parents I had acquired a degree in Software Engineer and joined a company based in USA the land of braves and opportunity. When I arrived in the USA it was as if a dream had come true.

Here at last I was in the place where I want to be. I decided I would be staying in this country for about Five years in which time I would have earned enough money to settle down in India.

My father was a government employee and after his retirement, the only asset he could acquire was a decent one bedroom flat. I wanted to do some thing more than him. I started feeling homesick and lonely as the time passed. I used to call home and speak to my parents every week using cheap international phone cards. Two years passed, two years of Burgers at McDonald's and pizzas and discos and 2 years watching the foreign exchange rate getting happy whenever the Rupee value went down.

Finally I decided to get married. Told my parents that I have only 10 days of holidays and everything must be done within these 10 days. I got my ticket booked in the cheapest flight. Was jubilant and was actually enjoying hopping for gifts for all my friends back home. If I miss anyone then there will be talks. After reaching home I spent home oneweek going through all the photographs of girls and as the time was getting shorter I was forced to select one candidate.

In-laws told me, to my surprise, that I would have to get married in 2-3 days, as I will not get anymore holidays. After the marriage, it was time to return to USA, after giving some money to my parents and telling the neighbors to look after them, we returned to USA.

My wife enjoyed this country for about two months and then she started feeling lonely. The frequency of calling India increased to twice in a week sometimes 3 times a week. Our savings started diminishing.
After two more years we started to have kids. Two lovely kids, a boy and a girl, were gifted to us by the almighty. Every time I spoke to my parents, they asked me to come to India so that they can see their grand-children.

Every year I decide to go to India But part work part monetary conditions prevented it. Years went by and visiting India was a distant dream. Then suddenly one day I got a message that my parents were seriously sick. I tried but I couldn't get any holidays and thus couldn’t go to India. The next message I got was my parents had passed away and as there was no one to do the last rights the society members had done whatever they could. I was depressed. My parents had passed away without seeing their grand children.

After couple more years passed away, much to my children's dislike and my wife's joy we returned to India to settle down. I started to look for a suitable property, but to my dismay my savings were short and the property prices had gone up during all these years. I had to return to the USA.

My wife refused to come back with me and my children refused to stay in India. My 2 children and I returned to USA after promising my wife I would be back for good after two years.

Time passed by, my daughter decided to get married to an American and my son was happy living in USA I decided that had enough and wound-up every thing and returned to India I had just enough money to buy a decent 02 bedroom flat in a well-developed locality.

Now I am 60 years old and the only time I go out of the flat is for the routine visit to the nearby temple. My faithful wife has also left me and gone to the holy abode.

Sometimes I wondered was it worth all this? My father, even after staying in India had a house to his name and I too have the same nothing more.

** I lost my parents and children for just ONE EXTRA BEDROOM. **

Looking out from the window I see a lot of children dancing.
This damned cable TV has spoiled our new generation and these children are losing their values and culture because of it. I get occasional cards from my children asking I am alright. Well at least they remember me.

Now perhaps after I die it will be the neighbors again who will be performing my last rights, God Bless them.

** But the question still remains 'was all this worth it? 'I am still searching for an answer................!!!!*

Reference: I read it on some other blog but can't stop myself to share here.

જિંદગી તો જીવાય છે જેમ-તેમ, પણ ખરી જિંદગી શું છે? કોને ખબર?

સપનાં તો જોયાં છે ઘણાં ઊંચા, સાકાર શી રીતે થશે? કોને ખબર?

નેતાઓ તો ઘણા આવ્યા દેશમાં, કર્તવ્યનિષ્ઠ કેટલાં રહ્યાં? કોને ખબર?

ભજની, કથા તો બહુ સાંભળી લોકે, જીવનમાં ઊતારી કોણે? કોને ખબર?

આજે છે જે જીવનની બધી સુખ-શાંતિ, કાલે પણ રહેશે સાથે? કોને ખબર?

આથી કહે છે ‘કવિ’ એટલું જ કે, જીવો અને જીવવા દો બીજાને,કાલે રહેશે હસ્તી આપણી? કોને ખબર?

ઢળતી ઉંમરનું આ ગીત ખુબજ વાસ્તવિક છે .
છેલ્લે તો બેજ જણા રહી જાય છે ( પતિ અને પત્ની.)
આમ પણ ભારતીય સમાજ એક પત્નીત્વમાં માને છે .
ઘડપણના વનરાવન ને રૂડું બનાવવું હોય તો આ સમાજની પરંપરા નીભાવ્યેજ છૂટકો.

‘મારા રીપોર્ટસ્ તદ્દન નોર્મલ છે, આઈ એમ ઓલરાઈટ’,

(quite very touchy lines...hats off to the poet )

છેલ્લે તો આપણે બે જ હોઈશું…
ભલે ઝગડીએ, ક્રોધ કરીએ, એકબીજા પર તુટી પડીએ,
એકબીજા પર દાદાગીરી કરવા, છેલ્લે તો આપણે બે જ હોઈશું.
જે કહેવું હોય એ કહી લે, જે કરવું હોય એ કરી લે,
એકબીજાનાં ચોકઠાં(ડેન્ચર–ચશ્માં) શોધવા છેલ્લે તો આપણે બે જ હોઈશું.
હું રીસાઈશ તો તું મનાવજે, તું રીસાઈશ તો હું મનાવીશ,
એકબીજાને લાડ લડાવવા, છેલ્લે તો આપણે બે જ હોઈશું.
આંખો જયારે ઝાંખી થશે, યાદશક્તી પણ પાંખી થશે,
ત્યારે, એકબીજાને એકબીજામાં શોધવા, છેલ્લે તો આપણે બે જ હોઈશું.
ઘુંટણ જ્યારે દુઃખશે, કેડ પણ વળવાનું મુકશે,
ત્યારે એકબીજાના પગના નખ કાપવા, છેલ્લે તો આપણે બે જ હોઈશું.
‘મારા રીપોર્ટસ્ તદ્દન નોર્મલ છે, આઈ એમ ઓલરાઈટ’,
એમ કહીને, એકબીજાને છેતરવા, છેલ્લે તો આપણે બે જ હોઈશું.
સાથ જ્યારે છુટી જશે, વીદાયની ઘડી આવી જશે,
ત્યારે, એકબીજાને માફ કરવા, છેલ્લે તો આપણે બે જ હોઈશું.

when I fell and hit the ground....

In recent times, there have been a spate of news items revealing a credit card fraud. In one such item, two youngsters were caught duping credit card holders by offering them new credit cards with higher credit limits by trading in their old credit cards. The youngsters then used the old cards to make their purchases, mostly electronics. This is how they laid the plot.

They would call up credit card holders representing themselves as employees of the credit card company. They would inform these clueless customers about a new scheme about new credit cards with greater purchase limits in exchange of old ones. Then they would also inform customers that the company's representative would soon visit them with the new card, which would be activated as soon as they filled in a form!

This news only reinstates the importance of being a vigilant customer and using credit cards with utmost prudence. Here are a few things one can do:

1. If you lose your credit card, it is necessary to inform your credit card company immediately. This will enable the card issuer to freeze the card with immediate effect and prevent any purchases on the card. The important thing for you is that your liability is limited once you inform the credit card issuer.

2. Destroy your old card completely before you begin using your new card. This is important even if your old card has expired or you are upgrading your card.

3. Keep your card in a safe place and do not allow other people to handle it.

4. Be prudent about signing up for new offers. Double-check the genuineness of the scheme. A simple way to verify genuineness of any scheme is to call up the credit card company and inquiring with them.

5. Change your PIN at regular intervals. Do not use obvious PIN like birth dates.

6. Inform your credit card company immediately if you do not receive your monthly credit statement. It could be a case of identity theft where the fraudster has changed your billing address.

7. Use chip based credit cards. These cards offer better security than credit cards with black magnetic stripes. This is because in a chip based card, all information is stored in the small chip in encrypted format and it also uses a PIN. This makes changing or copying this data extremely difficult.

8. So, the chance of data being misused while swiping the card is very remote. It is the highest level of security that credit card companies can offer at present. Citibank and Kotak Mahindra issue chip based cards to select high range customers. Axis bank's VISA Platinum card is also chip-based. HDFC Bank also has begun issuing these cards.

9. Be careful while shopping online. This is because you are required to give the CVV number for making purchases over the Internet. For this, be sure you shop only from secure websites. Ensure that the website is certified by VeriSign. Look for a yellow lock on the bottom right hand corner of the screen.

10. If you have a large credit limit on your card and use it frequently for several purchases including online and telephone purchases, it is a good idea to get your card insured. You cannot prevent credit card fraud but at least minimize its impact on your financial stability! You can protect yourself from fraudulent charges on your card up to 12 hours before reporting the loss to the credit card issuer.

Tech Support: Yes, ... how can I help you?

Customer: Well, after much consideration, I've decided to install Love. Can you guide me though the process?

Tech Support: Yes. I can help you. Are you ready to proceed?

Customer: Well, I'm not very technical, but I think I'm ready. What do I do first?

Tech Support: The first step is to open your Heart. Have you located your Heart?

Customer: Yes, but there are several other programs running now. Is it okay to install Love while they are running?

Tech Support: What programs are running?

Customer: Let's see, I have Past Hurt, Low Self-Esteem, Grudge, and Resentment running right now.

Tech Support: No problem, Love will gradually erase Past Hurt from your current operating system. It may remain in your permanent memory but it will no longerdisrupt other programs. Love will eventually override Low Self-Esteem with a module of its own called High Self-Esteem. However, you have to completely turn off Grudge and Resentment. Those programs prevent Love from being properly installed. Can you turn those off?

Customer: I don't know how to turn them off. Can you tell me how?

Tech Support: With pleasure. Go to your start menu and invoke Forgiveness. Do this as many times as necessary until Grudge and Resentment have been completely erased.

Customer: Okay, done! Love has started installing itself. Is that normal?

Tech Support: Yes, but remember that you have only the base program. You need to begin connecting to other Hearts in order to get the upgrades.

Customer: Oops! I have an error message already. It says, "Error - Program not run on external components." What should I do?

Tech Support: Don't worry. It means that the Love program is set up to run on Internal Hearts, but has not yet been run on your Heart. In non-technical terms, it simply means you have to Love yourself before you can Love others.

Customer: So, what should I do?

Tech Support: Pull down Self-Acceptance; then click on the following files: Forgive-Self; Realize Your Worth; and Acknowledge your Limitations.

Customer: Okay, done.

Tech Support: Now, copy them to the "My Heart" directory. The system will overwrite any conflicting files and begin patching faulty programming. Also, you need to delete Verbose Self-Criticism from all directories and empty your Recycle Bin to make sure it is completely gone and never comes back.

Customer: Got it. Hey! My heart is filling up with new files. Smile is playing on my monitor and Peace and Contentment are copying themselves all over My Heart. Is this normal?

Tech Support: Sometimes. For others it takes awhile, but eventually everything gets it at the proper time. So Love is installed and running. One more thing before we hang up. Love is Freeware. Be sure to give it and its various modules to everyone you meet. They will in turn share it with others and return some cool modules back to you.

A new research has analyzed what are the things in the movie Avatar that comply with science and can exist in reality and what are the things that are implausible.

According to a report in Discovery News, one of the plausible stuff shown in the movie is the concept of moons that can host life.

Inhabitable moons are probably the most common place to find life in the Milky Way galaxy, simply because large moons outnumber planets by at least a factor of 10.

For example, Saturn's giant moon Titan could be the archetype of inhabitable moons. It is as geologically and meteorologically diverse as Earth.

Another likely concept shown in the film is that biological evolution on other habitable worlds can take a different road than Earth.

In Avatar, the biosphere of Pandora supports and extraterrestrial Serengeti of diverse creatures.

The respiratory systems of many of the species appear to operate differently from ours. Bioluminescence also plays a big role in communication among organisms.

Another plausible stuff shown in the movie is that the atmosphere on other habitable worlds might be breathable for organisms of that planet, but not for human beings.

In the flick, it's hard for humans to breath Pandora's atmosphere and they must wear filtering apparatus.

Some of the implausible stuff shown in the movie includes the concept of almost magical rocks known as "unobtaniums", which are described in the movie as metallic superconducting crystal with the capability of powering starships and fulfilling Earth's energy needs.

The reality is that even if such an element existed, it would have been forged under tremendous pressures deep inside a super-Earth and would not be extractable.

Even if it was extractable, the chemistry would be easier to synthesize on Earth rather than building an interstellar spaceship to haul it between stars.

Freight costs alone would kill any possibility of this material being commercially viable.

Another scientifically impossible concept shown in the film is floating mountains.

In Avatar, there are floating, superconducting magnetic mountains made of chunks of unobtanium on Pandora.

On such a moon, there would be a huge electrical current inside a cylinder of a highly concentrated magnetic flux that is connected to the parent planet.

Such a flux tube flowing between Jupiter and Io has the power output of about 2 trillion watts.

But, the fact is that living cells can be destroyed by extremely intense magnetic fields like these.

One more implausible ting shown in the movie is the 10-foot high blue humanoids, which would unlikely evolve elsewhere in the universe
