Fill yourself with positive attitude and positive thinking. Take all your biodata, credentials, photographs with enough photocopies (if required, you may deliver them)

- 12. Study the job .... Dont just join any job – join a job, where you can really put in your best – join a job, where you can work as intrapraneur (with passion). Study the job description carefully and understand the requirements of the company very carefully. You should be able to meaningfully contribute to the company. Think about long term career.
- 13. Avoid jobs – that are painful Avoid jobs that are going to be painful to you - believe in your capability – you can earn your requirements – there is no need to work in a place which is unethical / painful / unfriendly and where you have to listen to unreasonable comments every day. We dont get life again and again - so work where you can achieve your dreams. Dont do job – be intrapreneur.
- 14. Join a learning organisation – dont look at money Join a truly learning organisation – where you can learn everyday- where you can grow every day – where really good people work – so that you can groom yourself everyday – where you are challenged every day and put to quality standards – where you can find fairness, collaboration and mutual sharing – this will compensate for money (which will follow you later)
- 15. References ..... Avoid giving caste based references – give merit based references and join only those organisations, which value merit and where merit is rewarded. Take permission before giving references.
