interview tips

[NEW YORK - Wednesday] - by Devon Melk. Rumors are now running amok
that the 2nd most powerful website on the entire Worldwide-Web may
file BANKRUPTCY, with the deadline set for this December; being the
date of both discharge and dissolution in a Federal Court of Law.

This would come as a SHOCK to investors and "Googlers" alike who
both profit and benefit from the use of the World's largest and
most powerful search engine which receives far in excess of
100 MILLION unique daily visitors and well over 300 million
individual searches daily - making it perhaps the single most
valuable public data resource as an "information bank" online the
world over.

But is the rumor true or false?

The origin of the rumor occurred when some savvy Internet marketers
began making statements that they had heard "insiders' talk" that
the company (now publicly traded since April 30, 2004, just over 3
years ago) may face financial disaster with the release of a "new
system" that would allow advertisers to get their otherwise
pay-per-click (PPC) advertising completely free.

This, of course, would naturally lead directly (like a domino-
effect) to the collapse of Google's sibling program AdSense; as its
only revenue comes from the direct sales of AdWords "clicks."

The "new system" in question and responsible for the controversy
over getting AdWords pay-per-clicks free is that developed by
Dr Jon Cohen of New York City, New York (now retired) who discovered
a simple, yet effective means, for getting Google PPC ads without
having to suffer the costs involved.

The retired New York doctor and native has a publicly disclosed net
worth now in excess of $7O million [US], having generated well over
$377 million in product sales from sixteen (16) separate online
businesses within just nine (9) years since first venturing online
in 1998 (about the same time as Google was founded).

It is estimated by company insiders and leading financial analysts
that the "good doctor" (as he's called by "all who know him") has
purportedly saved well over $93 million (some estimates suggest
closer to $136 million) in otherwise paid advertising at Google and
the other major players in the PPC targeted-search arena online -
including Yahoo, MSN, AskJeeves, AllTheWeb.com, HotBot, AltaVista,
Lycos and Netscape, just to name a few.

The "secret" became available to the general masses last April, and
its very release caused such a major sweeping stir among the
community of Internet-marketers, affiliate-marketers, webmasters,
ecommerce company owners and surfers alike that the site quickly
rose to break the top most visited 1,000 websites on the entire
planet briefly; and as can be seen here:

When asked if the "secret" would somehow ruin Google, Dr Cohen
revealed almost cryptically that it actually would bring about just
the opposite effect, and "stimulate" even more business volume for
the virtual giant.

Many people were dismayed to find that Google itself is deliberately
allowing the purchase of 100,000's of PPC ads offering the secret
system to the general public -- which indicates to most observers
that either they [Google] haven't caught it, or they simply feel
that it somehow is not a threat to their continued operation.

For anyone's inspection factual and hard evidence supporting this
can be seen by simply looking to the right-hand column when doing a
search for "get google ads free" (specifically in quotation marks)
at Google.com under the "Sponsored Links" section.

Or take this direct and instant SHORTCUT:

http://tinyurl.com/39lnjn

You can also see nearly 100,000 specific results in the "organic"
fields index located in the center and which occupies the bulk of
the results pages.

One would think that if Google felt threatened by such a release as
this earth-shaking "secret" is, they would hardly allow for either
paid-ads or organic content to make the top searches regarding it.

However, evidence supports to the contrary - and this being the
case now for a full six (6) months.

Mysteriously, within just two (2) hours of its initial release last
April, Google itself actually did in fact 'pause' the parent firm's
attempts at advertising the new system using PPCs on their search
engine - only, however, to release the hold after a Review Team
consisting of some of Google's top executives completed performing
an in-depth investigation and made the determination to ALLOW the
ads to run.

The secret system was recently revised however to include "major
new content" and "more exhaustive instructions," and is now
available at its Home Site:

http://malika123.freegoogle.hop.clickbank.net

The most important addition is that of a so-called "string of code"
(tech-talk for some HTML) that can be added to any webpage(s) that
instantly causes the elimination of the page owner's AdWords costs
right away.

Even a "live" woman spokes-representative ("Rachel") has been added
to the site, and who appears to literally walk out onto the webpage
and talk to visitors and explain a bit more how the mysterious new
breakthrough system works.

Since the addition of this new "live" spokes-woman has now appeared
at the site, company Vice President of Sales & Marketing, Mr Todd
Coutrin states that "sales for the system have skyrocketed above
2,430% suddenly and with no limit in sight."

Coutrin continues: "With the newest revision now in place, plus all
the additions added, affiliates for the new system can expect to
earn even more than ever before!" (Note: Affiliates make up the
bulk of the firm's sales generation.)

The refund rate for the new revised version of the secret (named
V5.1) has dropped to less than half of what it was before the newer
version's release; meaning it's now even more readily-received and
put to use than ever before (perhaps in large part to the newer
simplicity of application) - now making it the safest and one of
the best resellers for the networks of affiliate marketers who earn
their revenues from the reselling of other electronic publishers'
stock and digital product lines.

When asked, Google company representatives stated matter-of-factly
that the rumors of bankruptcy for the ecommerce giant are simply
not true, and that the rumor millings are in fact simply the result
of "panics" brought on by the usual hysteria associated with
anything large, new or revolutionary - or in this case, all three.

Attempts to contact both Sergey Brin and Larry Page, the former
Stanford University students who founded Google in 1998, to request
comment were unsuccessful.

Again, Google itself seems to be the biggest supporter of the "new
system" as it's allowing more and more advertisers to promote the
new system on its search engine before over 100 million daily
searches and surfers.

A mail room supervisor is responsible for collecting all the mails from the company. You will also have to collect all the electronic mail as well.

You will also have to assist in monthly billing for different departments. You will also have to serve the entire job in the absence of printing and delivery supervisor.

Hence this is really a challenging job and you will have to make sure that you prepare hard for the interview which is to be conducted for this post. In this article I am listing some of the interview questions which you will be asked during the interview.

The questions are as follows:

1. Tell us something about yourself ?
In most of the interviews this is the first question which is being asked. You can say that: “I am XYZ and my father name is so and so. I have done my graduation from XYZ College in the year XYZ. Presently I am working as a mail room supervisor in one of the reputed firm.” That’s it, your answer is now complete and you can take rest.

2. What was your job profile?
Let me tell you that there is no sequence in which the questions will be asked. Since I have said in the above question about my job, hence it is quite sure that your next job will be related to the job profile. But believe me that if you will answer promptly then they will not ask even a single more question from you and you will be selected. Just elaborately describe your previous job profile and if it matches with the new job profile then it is quite sure that you will be selected.

3. What was your CTC?
Yes, you will definitely be asked about the cost to the company. Don’t waste time in this question and humbly and politely answer to this question by just telling what you get annually. However up till now if the recruiter has decided to select you then there will be lots of discussion about your salary since they will have to decide that what salary they will give it to you. I would definitely like to add that the recruiters will try to hire your for the minimum salary possible. Hence use your brain and then negotiate with them properly.

There can be many more questions related to your computer knowledge as well as your honesty. This is a very important post and even a single mistake can cost the company lots of money. Hence they will definitely ask you that how caring you are?

Apart from all this I would just tell you that you should be smart enough and give even the wrong answers smartly. This will put a good impression in the mind of the recruiter and he will definitely select you.

They are as follows:

This is the first question which you might be asked. Let me tell you that you should not waste the recruiter’s time as far as this question are concerned and you should just sum up the answer in few words. You can just tell them about your job. In fact it is definitely a better option to just tell about the job and do not indulge in talking about your family. You should tell about your family only if the recruiters ask from you about it.

2. Have you ever work as an inventory specialist?
Let me tell you that you should speak the truth while answering this question as it would have also been mentioned in the resume as well. And you will definitely find yourself in big trouble if you will tell a lie. And hence you should just politely say yes or no. believes me that this is just a simple question and the recruiters do not want to make the curry out of it. It is you who will be making the curry if you will go wrong.

3. Have you ever been suspended?
The recruiters definitely want to know that how loyal you are towards the company. Just say yes or no. I would definitely like to add one more thing that if you have been suspended then your chances of being selected is very low and believe me that you will have o hide your suspension from the recruiter somehow or the other.

4. Why should we select you?
You can just say that you should be selected because you are different from others. You should add one more point and that is you do not try to know what the others are doing. You just go on asking the seniors when you have some problem and apart from this you just try to concentrate on your work. This makes you a very able employee and in this way you are always able to help out the company so that they can make lots of profit.

These are some of the questions with answers which can be asked from you while you will be giving the interview for the post of inventory specialist.
