Interviewer : Do you have any plans of higher study? Candidate: he he he.. Are you kidding? Completing 'lower' education it self was so much of pain!! 
Interviewer : Let's talk about technical stuff. On which platforms have you worked? Candidate : Well, I work at SEEPZ, so you can say Andheri is my current platform. Earlier I was at Vashi center. So Vashi was my platform then. As you can see I have experience of different platforms! (Vashi and Andheri are the places in Mumbai)

Interviewer : Do you have any project management experience? Candidate: No, but I guess it shouldn't be difficult. I know Word and Excel. I can talk a lot. I know how to dial for International phone call and use speaker facility. And very important - I know few words like - 'Showstoppers ' , 'hot fixes', 'SEI-CMM', 'quality', 'version control', 'deadlines' , 'Customer Satisfaction' etc. Also I can blame others for my mistakes! 
Interviewer: What are your expectations from our company? Candidate : Not much. 
1. I should at least get 40,000 in hand.. 
2. I would like to work on a live EJB project. But it should not have deadlines. I personally feel that pressure affects natural talent. 
3. I believe in flexi-timings. 
4. Dress code is against basic freedom, so I would like to wear t-shirt and jeans. 
5. We must have sat-sun off. I will suggest Wednesday off also, so as to avoid breakdown due to overwork. 
6. I would like to go abroad 3 times a year on short term preferably 1-2 months) assignments. Personally I prefer US,
Australia and Europe. But considering the fact that there are Olympics coming up in China
 in the current year, I don't mind going there in that period. As you can see I am modest and don't have many expectations. So can I assume my selection?
