Hi all

Here is exhorting you all to kick start your preparation for the ensuing campus drive season. At the outset, we need to develop a strategy –one that enables us to optimize utilization of our time, energy and resources. Hence, let us all desire to clean up all the junk in terms of notions, prejudice and start on a clear note.

              Firstly, understand that there is a clear distinction between line of preparation for regular Exams and campus or job related tests. You may very well depend on memorization while preparing for exams, but in case of the other, a strategy involving a judicious mix of understanding, correlation and application hold the key. So, make your search for resources broad -based multi -focal and multi -discipline .Plz. do remember that you don’t restrict yourself to pre- defined, limited areas of your core. You need to prepare on your personal, behavioral side as well as technical or academic aspects. we often find the best of learning and ideas at the intersection of areas or disciplines. Hence, Be open to any nugget of info. or idea ,literally from any source of channel or process-be it formal or informal, academic or otherwise.

         Start out building your resume early, so that you can have the benefit of understanding the finer and stronger points in it. Then it can serve your purpose well. You may then use your resume as a compass to maneuver the Interview. It has the potential of shaping up the direction of the Interview.

Follow these basic steps while building your resume.

• Identifying the priority areas and  highlighting functional aspects like Projects, Internship,Paper presentations,certifications and workshops etc.
• Making objective simple and reflective of your attitude and vision. And restricting it to a single sentence.
• Length must be 2 pages maximum. One page resumes are also acceptable, but must have place for all desirable areas such as Educational Qualification, Objective core strengths, technical skills,incl.projects and Internship , achievements and bits of personal details as well.
• Candidates possessing more technical accomplishments must prioritize based on time and relevance factors and restrict to 2 pages, while cutting down on interpersonal and personal details.
• Remember writing your resume is not a single-stage process. Prepare a rough draft after you have finalized broad components (structure).
• Review and rework your draft
• Involve friends, peers and teachers and seek their opinion.
• Remember writing your resume is just half of the job done, the other crucial half is to analyze ,understand and develop responses (on matters presented on ur resume).This is vital for enabling you to justify everything confidently and competently before the Interviewer.

So, get started and get going till you are sure of your strengths and discover the best in You.
Finally , remember,all distant things can be reached only when we take care of the things in hand(nearer to us).
Similarly, start believing in the enormous power of small things as big ones (achievements)are simply not possible without them.
Exhorting you all to strive and discover the BEST IN YOU.
