12 hours of counting minutes

FIITJEE Faculty recruitment Day : it was heavily crowed ...hmmm around 200 were
there... im sure i was the youngest among them...it was around 9am i stepped into the
office... i thought it was pretty normal organization ..later realized it has all facilities as
a corporate...biometric in/out for every door/class ... nice cafeteria,200 seating digital
auditorium, and most important.. it was Central AC.

By 930...the written exam started..2hours subjective test on

core Physics concepts... Paper 1 was good and Paper 2 was tough... then an IQ test 30
min - 30 ques with negative marking...this was horrible i couldn't answer 17 questions....
it was 1 ...i was out of the hall...they made us wait for 2hours for the result... i stood
2nd /9ppl in Physics wing and i was pretty happy...later they took us to auditorium for
the Company overview and den a beautiful LUNCH ( this was most interesting part)
by 5pm they took us for GD round..it went on for 1hour on two topics
"Is Cell phone a useful gadget to school student..should it be allowed in
school/college??"
"Board exams and Competitive exams ...parent and student perspective"
we were 5..one was the principal of reputed school...one was the Physics HOD of sri
chaitanya techno schools...other two were 5+ year experienced faculty and the last was
me.the discussion went terrific though i dint speak much...i made my space to drop few
words...this was not an elimination round so i was kool and passive.
around 640pm i was called for the model lecture... i took relative velocity concepts and
started with a simple problem...three top professors were the panel ..they dropped a
bunch of terrific concept diven problem..i could answer none..still managed to plug in.. it
went moderate i was not happy.. i felt ...i should have taken newtons laws..but all the
way it doesnt matter..
they threw me to big library hall...it was already filled with 80+ people waiting for
the Personal interview...i got my chance at 10:10pm... HR round was good.. throughly

convinced them with my credentials...

hmmmm finally stepped out at 10:15 pm...more than 12 hours... 6+ hours of waiting and
tension
... the final word by them was...we will contact you in 1 or 2 weeks...n tension continues
(that means he failed /rejected)
