What are the skills
required to get recruited? You might be very good at your technical but all of
these can be showcased only after you get into a job. It is how you present
your skills that impress the employers the most. For this the most important
factor is your communication skill. You could be just average or above average
at your technical but if it is backed up with good communication skills, you
can still get that job. Even after you get a job, these skills play a crucial
role in healthy growth of your career. When you attend an interview, you should
know very well when to say a direct no and when try to find out an answer. For
suppose you are asked to explain some concept which you have very little idea
and you feel you are cannot present a proper answer then it is better to tell
that you do not know than trying to cover up. But if you are asked to solve
some puzzle which seems really hard to crack, you give it your best shot trying
to answer rather than giving up before even trying.
Before even speaking
about an interview, the job seeker has to clear a written exam. This is
conducted by almost all the companies especially for recruiting a fresher. Most
of the fresher job seekers miss out on a job not at an interview but at the written
levels. So they will have to concentrate more on this aspect. These written
exams may or may not have technical questions but will surely have aptitude
related questions. So improving your aptitude levels is important. As these are
time bound exams, you should be quick enough to answer as many questions as
possible correctly. The next step is your interview.
For an experienced job
seeker, you have to emphasize on the work you have done. Showing what all you have
learnt from your previous work and how well you can handle any challenging
situation in a right way has to be done. Do not give more negative reviews on
your previous work place and stress on what all positives that came out. At the
same time give a proper reason which does not stress more on negatives of
previous place. This balancing act is necessary for a job seeker who has
experience. Even when it comes negotiating your salary package, see that you do
not get involved in any argument. If you do not like the package, negotiate to
an extent and better reject the offer if you do not like it rather than making
an argument.
You might have all the
skills needed for a job but you should also find an opportunity. As registering
in a job portal is completely free of cost, it is good to give it a try. Registerin a job portal that has numerous job seeker tools to help out the candidate to
be better prepared to face this competitive world. Hence it is suggestible to
any job seeker to register in such a job portal.
