Facing For an Interview

Today we had the opportunity to play the interview script. Our colleagues was divided into 3 teams. Three members of each team were interviewed by other members of the team  who played the roles of the interview candidates.


We were asked to follow what we learned during the PPD interviews. 

We were guided to improve confidence, smiled and answered the request of our friends. At the time we were really thinking about the positions of our strengths, about our weaknesses. 

This is how we recognize what we want to improve and what we want to show our strengths in an interview. On some occasions we forgot to keep eye contact. Sometimes I forgot to change the chair when we got up. I forgot to say thank you.

Most of us made simple mistakes in our interviews. Maybe it's because we have very little experience. In some cases it was the first time in an interview.
Experience gives us a lot to learn and achieve. It is therefore very important to practice the interview procedure with a friend until you are sure.

!!! Cut the Cake !!!

Miss Sarasi grouped our friends and gave a small piece of cake.


Then she asked the above task. 


This was given for only a minute. 


All groups presented themselves in different ways. 


But only one group won the task. 


We have to make a quick decision if we want to win
We have to have an appropriate strategy and logical thinking


Creative ideas must have.

Story Writing

Writing isn’t easy, and writing a good story is even harder..
In the last PPD Session , we were guide into a great awesomeness of writing stories  and more importantly, how to write a story that’s good.


We were first divided into 3 groups and sat opposite the class. We are not allowed to see the white board. Each group member must have been on the board and write a word.
Looks like there is no problem. But the word has to agree with another word and make a meaningful story

Its hard to find two people who have the same exact idea of something. Different people have different ideas. 
So, as Software Engineers, we must need to perform as a team in the industry. So Working in a team is a kind of challenge that needs to be done. Because of the same team members may become a conflict  . 
  • So we have to respect each other.
  •  But sometimes we have to continue our work where others can stop. 
  • We could get into an unexpected situation.
  •  Here we did not know which other person could write the word on the blackboard. 
  • We have to think and write the right word. It is a small challenge in a short time..
  • In the industrial world, we do not always have to get new projects done. Sometimes we get half done. We have no chance to know what another person did or how they did it. But we have to finish it.
