At present it is the time of personal interviews at all MBA Institutes who are likely to
interview you to know your overall personality.
PI is the last step but is very crucial step for the
admission in any MBA Institute. The gravity of the matter is thatit can be
judged by the fact that PI is having a weightage of 20-25% in overall selection
process.
It is open secret that if a candidate is fumbling during PI
then it is really difficult to expect admission.
Get nervous and get out of competition, that is really
alarming sentence but the message it loud and clear that candidate must not get
nervous and that is where the art of the interview is. Because a bit of getting
nervousness it will give chance to others who are in fray of competition.
In general, personal interview is being conducted to know
your personality, to know your top of mind ideas, thoughts and top of all; your
overall attitude. Although these are known as soft skills but these skills
can’t be achieved overnight. Hence, it is a must for the candidate to develop
these skills on daily basis.
How these skills can be improved? There are two schools of
thought, one says get guidance and the second says get guided yourself. It is
pertinent to note that self-guidance is always better because you are the
person who knows your pluses and minuses much better than anybody else.
Reading motivational stories will gain you confidence and
you would be able to gain positive attitude. Reading business magazines, one business
newspaper and reading editorials of top dailies will
improve your communication skills and you would attain plenty of information on
current affairs and that it itself will boost your confidence to face personal
interview. Most importantly a key factor is that if the news analysis programme
is being heard every day on all India Radio at 9.15 pm, this can be a game
changerfor your success in personal interview.
