dat impressed him(i guess)...jst be CALM nd plz BE URSELF...nd never try to bluff...be HONEST and CONFIDENT.. out of 48 students 29 cleared the hr round nd by god,s grace i was of of dem.... den was my technical round... it was a cakewalk 4 me....the technical person was very very cool and calm he just asked my intro,and some ques on my project...my tech intrnw lasted for only 5 min...
i think a PROJECT in ur cv is alwz a ADDED ADVANTAGE..it changes d focus of d interviewer...bt make sure dat u knw every small details of ur project...bt don worry if u dont have one..jst prepare well d subjects u r writing in ur cv.. d results were declared at 9.30p.m and out of 29 students,19 were selected finally... by god,s grace, i am a SATYAMITE now...so study hard and pray harder....
