A complete guide to excel in your next job interview



1. In tech, what interests you the most? What kind of products (software or hardware) do you love the most, are good/expert at, or follow passionately? Please exclude social media stuff.


It could be an OS like Android, iOS, Linux, Windows, etc., or any type of app or game. It could be a concept like Cryptocurrency and NFT, or your passion for something like certain kinds of apps, like photo editors, videos editors, productivity tools, etc. Anything that is close to your heart in technology, share that with us. You can also tell us which PC software or apps you are really, really good at. Like, Microsoft Excel, Word, Google Docs, Google Sheets, Canva, Photoshop, whatever.


From hardware to software to the web, you can include anything that you follow passionately. (Let us know everything we need to know. No word limit to this answer.)


Ans: 

I play MX Player and MPL games. Apart, I am a Youtuber/ daily motion partner and post videos on various topics including facts, politics, spoofs, pets, sports, entertainment, etc. I am proficient in using Microsoft Office tools, video, and audio editing software, computer typing, and researching online.


2. What are your 3 favorite apps on mobile/PC?


Write about 50 words at the least per app/software. That’s a must. And please exclude social media apps.


Note: Make sure it is your own text. Do not use others’ work.


Ans:  

1. Mchamp: It is a quiz-based trivia app, where we get to learn GK as well as participate in several cool live quiz contests. Here we get to test our knowledge levels among participants present all over India. There are a variety of quiz categories such as culture, science, sports, current affairs, movies, etc.


2. Loco: It is a live trivia app, where I used to participate daily during afternoon 1 pm and night 8 pm to answer questions on all trending topics of that day. Here we have to answer 10 questions correctly in KBC show-like format and the winners will get a chance to share the total prize money. I have participated and won Paytm cash many times in it.


3. Inshorts: It is a news app that provides the latest news and happenings across the world in short news snippets format. It is very useful while we are on the go while traveling or if we don’t find much time to read newspapers or watch news programs on TV amidst our hectic work schedule. The articles are very easy to read and are available in a few lines with attractive titles for improving our language and general awareness.


3. Which websites and forums on the Internet do you use and visit often?


Do you keep yourself updated with the latest in tech on a regular basis?


(Just the names of the websites will do, btw.)


Ans: 

Techgig.com, Howtogeek.com, and The Hindu website


4. Which mobile phone do you have? Why did you choose it?


Write at least 200 words.


(We’re looking forward to a nice read.)


Ans: 

Samsung Galaxy Tab A 2018, especially because it is big in size (10.5-inch display screen), has high-quality dual speakers, has a powerful processor, works fast, and looks cool as well. Coupled with an attractive back cover, it won’t look like a phone itself. It will actually look like a book and hence very safe to take it along during travel as well. It has a crystal clear display and gives theater-like sound clarity while watching movies. Many have even teased me saying tablets are outdated and failure models. But, yet my very first tab is really very close to my heart!


5. Have you written for any blog or website earlier?


If yes, share the links to your work online. It’s okay if you haven’t.


Ans: 

Yes. All my previous works are available at https://www.varunsundar.blogspot.com


6. Finally, explain briefly here what kind of work do we do and why are you are suitable for that?


Looking forward to reading your thoughts on this!


Ans: 

You are a technology-based blog working on covering the latest trending technical topics. I have already worked for an online news portal and a blogging website before. So, I think I would be an ideal fit for this position.


7. Tell us more about you.

What's your age, residence (home and work, if different), who's in your family, suitable working hours, etc.?


Ans: 

29, Home, Father and mother, Late afternoon to Late night session


8. Ask us!


If there is anything you need to ask, mention it here.


Ans: 

How soon can I join, if I get selected?
