Ø Before you take up the interview

· Read your updated bio-data line by line like you review a document or review a piece of code. The onsite team might have reformatted your bio-data to showcase your strengths with respect to the position you will be slotted at. Hence ask the onsite team to send a copy of the bio-data that has been given to the client

· Talk to the onsite team before you take the interview. They will be in a position to brief you about the position that you will slotted in and your role and responsibilities

· Talk about your undergraduate and post-graduate degrees. Explain in brief the stream of your specialization (like graduate in Electrical Engineering and post graduation in Computer Science)
