It was 18th of June 2008… I woke up as usual in the Morning and Got Ready etc… I took jus that offer letter they mailed to ma home and a Resume… I was asked to be there at 10am! The Office is diagonally opposite the Santhome Church… I went there at 11am… When i reached back home, it was around 7pm! Now, lets see what i did there all day!

I went in and gave ma Profile to the Receptionist… She got ma Profile, after seeing me pick it out frm the Sutherland Envelope along with the Offer Letter, she asked me whether i had a campus offer… I said yes… She wrote it down and asked me to wait outside… Seems that those who had a campus offer letter need to attend one interview less… Big Deal…! I thought that they would directly take me in!!!
I was the waiting waiting waiting! After some more waiting i was called and asked to wait in the lobby! God, again waiting eh! Hmmm… Then, i was called into a cabin and a middle aged HR interviewed me… All those basic questions… Temme about yourself… And picking frm what i say… Ithuku paer thaan pottu vaanguratha!!! Namma enna solromo athu la irunthe namaku thirumba questions ketu kudaivaanga! Then, she gave me a paragraph and asked me to read it… It was some story aboput a cunning fox… I read it.. She then asked me to summarize it… Enna da ithu, ithuku enna summarizing ellam… Hmmm… I said, the moral of the story is “Beware of Cunning Foxes!” Is that Okay?! I dont know… I came out and i was given a personal data sheet to fill up, i was selected in that personal interview… Then, they asked me to take a break and come back again…

After finishing ma lunch there, i went in and gave an online test… Analytical and Listening… I scored a 90 in listening and 70 in Analytical… Pass Mark was some 50 and 60 respectively… I cleared that round and then was asked to go down and meet another HR, Emmy Wilson…
Again i waited waited waited…
After some more waiting, she came and took three of us to another board room or something, me and some 2 other guys, 1 of whom happened to become ma frnd at Sutherland and the other was rejected due to loads of backlogs…
It was supposed to be a final interview, she told… She asked us to speak for 2 minutes about something… She asked me abt ma College… The Other Guy talked about Racing at ECR in which his frnd lost his hand! And the third Guy, Nishant talked about paragliding at Air Force Quarters… This is the reason he was nicknamed Military at Sutherland…
And after that, she told that Nishant and Me had been selected and were put in DELL Process… Here, we have a 15 Day Training and other details…

We then met one Stephen who was the head of the HRs… Again after waiting we met him and he signed the final selection papers… We were then given our Training ID Cards… We joined the Training frm Day 2, the next Day(19th June 2008)…

Thus after getting our ID Cards, i introduced ma self to this Guy Nishant who was supposed to attend the training along with me and we exchanged Numbers… Then, we got the seal in the ID frm the Security… He was frm Tambaram and had to catch a bus/train… So, i said i’ll drop him at Guindy coz it was near ma Place… And so we went together till Guindy frm where he took a train to his place…

And it was nearly 7pm when i went back home that day!
This is all that happened, in short!I believed this was the last elemination round and hereafter we are permanent employees! But i was wrong!!!
