This is for the first time that I am not having butterflies in my stomach given the importance of this interview. And I dont know why? But as the days pass I am sure the pressure of performance will mount on me... God save me from those last minute pangs and keep me cool, please. Amen. Summa Amen.
Yesterday I attended one of the mock interviews at Princeton. In their view my profile is very strong. . . I just need to manage some of my body language which at one point signalled my uncomfort with one of the questions. Coming from HR background I know that "how you speak" is equally important, or sometimes more important, than "what you speak". As one of the current students wrote to me, ISB has already made up their mind about me and they would just be validating that perception during the interview. It is my responsibility to reinforce that perception. And if the perception is otherwise then interview is an opportunity to change that perception. In a way a hard selling is required (We are first a salesman then any other professional as we always try to sell ourselves to our customers - doctors to patients, newspapers to readers, , candidates to interviewees, and the infinite list goes on)
Well, time to prepare and say GOOD BYE... Will inform about the interveiw once done. Till then keep visiting this page ;)
