Interviewing :- Shikha Badhera

Shikha Badhera, this name doesn’t need any kind of introduction. A name that pronounces Intelligent, Cool, Meritorious, Brave, Straight Forward, Hesitation Free, Stress Free, Ready for Every Task, her lovely Smile and the most important Helpful (Is Kalyug ki Mother Teresa). On should learn how she does it?

“Areyy… Rukk, mein batati hu na……..Rukk,....dekh asie hoga ye……….Dekh mein padhata hu tujhe” And her hand posture that she makes. That, takes away all your problems. 

Either it’s your project report, midterm, any lab or even semester exam she is ever ready. Just call her Shikha. Bet me, even if you are on the first bench and she on the last, she would somehow manage and drag you out of your problem. Either she know the solution or not, now it’s her problem. You need not worry. J

She is one of those who care for feeling, I have always gifted her éclairs on her Birthday (yaaa single éclairs, Rs.1, I know what you are thinking. {People like me still live on this planet.}) But, she is so dam good that she accepts it every year and appreciates it. #Respect_Sister. You are super awesome.

I was in a serious mess with her on the first month of our class (Now I know how stupid jerk I was). I am Sorry and can just say, 

MY ENGINEERING IS INCOMPLETE WITH YOU SHIKHA,

THANKS FOR EVERY NANO SECOND, YOU STOOD BY MY SIDE.

I want to quote her best saying 

“Dekh Bhai…. Talented to bachpan se thi….  Per ghamand aaj tak nahi kiya.”

This is that every human being should learn, especially people like us who are on the building stage.There is so much to say about her, but I have my restrictions.

Team MyCollegeStuffs wishes her a greatest, successful and brightest life ahead, may she wonders and make us proud.

 Let’s start digging her winning attitude.

Q1.) Congratulation Shikha, finally came the day and you did it. How does it feels after being placed? Or actually being an Infosian?

Thanks Shivam, it’s just simply AWESOME. Love to be an infosian .Starting from the 1^st year I wanted this place and wanted to feel this feeling. And yes I did it, I am placed in INFOSYS. Literally, I irritated many people, and especially Shivam tujhe to bhut pareshann kr rkha tha kbse ek hi line se..."mera placement to ho jayega na yaar”. Thanks to all, for wishes and their extreme support.  
 

Q2.) Shikha Interview plays an important Role in Placement, please throw some light on your Interview.

Interview plays a critical role in your placement drive, not only your communication skills but your attitude, attire are being checked at once.

INFOSYS Campus Drive was conducted in 2 rounds

1)     Aptitude

2)     Interview

On 7^th November, the aptitude round started in college and the result of aptitude was announced on the same day and I got shortlisted.

On 8^th November, interview round started. After a long wait around 2.00pm came my turn. It was a complete HR interview

Interview-

ME- May I come in sir

HR- So, Shikha how are you..? Have a seat

ME - I am good Sir, Thank you

HR -Tell me something about your college.

ME- Gave him a brief description about college and how the college helped me regarding placement activity.

HR - Tell me something about your project.

ME - Told about the my minor project

HR - tell me another project that you have completed.

ME- told

HR - Solve this puzzle.

ME- Solved (it was a simple series problem.)

HR - Do u have any proficiency in IT field?

ME- Not, much deep.

HR - Ok, Shikha do you want to ask any question?

ME- I asked.. Sir in which field do I need to improve myself, if I get a chance with Infosys.

HR - (told me) and wish me all d best.

Q3.) Your interview seems to be a long tail, Shikha what was your strategy for cracking Infosys?

I preferred R.S.Agarwal and Shakuntala Devi for aptitude, verbal from Indiabix.com and reasoning from sheets that were given by Career Launcher Team.

But try to sit in a group in aptitude test, coordination plays a good role.

No, she is definitely not telling us to cheat in tests. :P :p  Believe Me…!!!

Q4.) Infosys was a long and hectic process, has something changed in Life after being placed? Or, you are still the same Shikha, we use to encounter?

Yes, I am the same Shikha, whom you always tried to annoy and irritate. And after being placed my confidence has definitely increased much high. Earlier, I used to hesitate a lot, but now I have gained a ease through which I do my work.

Q5.) Shikha what next?  Some kind of final touch up to any kind of your skills, or
totally handing yourself to Infosys. Like this is it, not any more?

No, obviously now I have to work on my programming skills.

Q6.) What are your future plans, basically Long Term Goals?

I can’t handle these jobs and especially with Computer Science, I would prefer Government Sector Jobs. And I have started preparing for them.

We wish her a Best of Luck, for her dreams, and successful life ahead.

Q7.) What do you think is Essential or Most Important for being
placed? (Technical/Aptitude/Communication)?

I would rate Communication, 9 on the scale of 10, (no matters you are grammatically wrong but be fluent.) And yes then technical 8 and aptitude again 8.

NOTE: - This is something which changes with each company. And would recommend you to use your own mind, as Shikha and Team MyCollegeStuffs is not responsible for any of the loss.

Q8.) What if one is not technical sound, or he/she is technically impaired then? What are your words?

If you are not good in technical knowledge, no problem. They would only check your confidence and communication.

This answer was specifically for Infosys.

Q9.) Shikha still hunting for any other company or this is it (Infosys)?

If I get a good opportunity then I would defiantly give it a try.

Q.10) who is your idol? Or who has inspired you the most?

My parents

Q11.) Any incident that has happened while the recruitment process, you want to share with us?

The moment when the HR announced the result, Shivam it was too torturing.

(p tk aate aate to jaan nikl jati h) :D

We can imagine that situation, going alphabetically.  

Q12.) Every person how much successful he or she is, has a moment in life when he/she feels a sense of failure. Did you encountered any?

Yes, and failures are the steps to success, many times it has happened to me too. Even just few days back, before the arrival of Infosys, the rejection from GD round in mock drive depressed me a lot., but she never cried. Good going Girl, Keep it up.

Q13.) Shikha, being a Rajasthan Board (Regional Board) student, what kind of difficulties did you faced?

No, there is wasn’t any kind of difficulty. In placement activity HR just check my basic communication level. The major concern in interview was whether we are able to connect with other people or not.

Q14.) Any message to Hindi Board Students?

RBSE or (Hindi medium) students need to be change their thinking. We can also crack the interview easily.

That is what every Hindi Medium Board student must read twice a day.

Q15.) Where do you see yourself after 2 years? (In Infosys or Not?)

May be or maybe not. Not yet decided

Q16.) Finally any kind of a tip or trick for your friends?

Just work on your communication skills and be confident J

Q15.) Thanks Shikha, for this interactive Session, sure our readers have learned not only interview tricks but also some moral ethics.
I was eagerly waiting for my turn where I could use your website to share my experience. Thanks, for giving me such a opportunity. The Best of Luck to you and all the readers for the Life ahead.

So, this was Shikha Badhera, a lovely intelligent girl from IV year, EC Branch. (my sister with #proud). This was a small glimpse of what I had interacted with her, in the Online Interview. A special thanks to Shikha and All the Best from Team MyCollegeStuffs for all her dreams. 

One, thing that Shikha should also learn from us that,
 some people are born to rule and not to work. You need to decide, which side to play.
