Being at the other end on a weekend

It was some experience i had unwillingly working on a weekend.

It was not the usual work but was called on to do candidate profile assessment of some candidates for our org's recruitment .as ever Interviews and teachers correcting exampapers in school leave some funny memories(i'll some day write about it.our teachers in school thought our batch wrote the most inventive answers.)
The most interesting i remember was read to us by our teacher in class.

a guy in our class wrote this for the question in economics asking
Why is the productivity of Indian Agriculture low?
Ans>because indian farmers drink and sleep in the fields.
So correction time in our school was huge fun for our teachers.

well to get back to my weekend activity .. here i was at the other end of the table when just a few months backi was at the other end .
There were all kinds the enthusisatic freshers ,
the care a damn (i have been at it since long)unemployed,
the polished dissastisfied people.
good thing was we as such were only handling basic profiles,no techy stuff by us there were others to try those out.
so all the general questions by us.

tell me about yourself..(God how i hated to start on this and now i ask the same tellme abt....)
they come in all ways.
one goes on n on abt his mom 's qualifications.....

other is so loud that im embarassed in a hall of interviews on....

there's one that claims gud experience ..... all claim...so did i
but the catch the guy is not sure what his experience is in...

there were others who seemed to be bright at least our education system rated them pretty high.but could hardly mumble.
(u wanna catch all such ppl and tell them once and for all

ppl i hate marketing but thats what is needed for what you want or what u say u want ..get a grip ...get smart....talk as if you know even if don't u can find out later if you need to.this i learnt from experience so i wish others are spared that but i guess experience is the best teacher.)
this whole scenario was such an experience but i'll elaborate later.


id love blogging a lot more if i could get that electronic pen.
i just hate typing after

a whole day at office
banging keys and scrolling mouses
flickering screens and freezing cabin houses.
