my firsts : Interview

Hi, hello, how are you? ........ all this you forgot to say at the time of facing an Interview. Well not the same with me, I have in my mind to wish first of all. I am talking about my interview at Sona Koyo Steering Systems Limited last Saturday for Summer Training.
They called me up, no!! I called them and tried to fix a time, they replied come at any time -jaise apni hi company hain..... I went there at around 12 pm. Two of the HR persons came and take me aside in a cabin. The cabin was a square of 5 ft. with partial lightening coming from the CFL and partially refracted from the glass panes situated half way up the cabin.


Now the thing begins,
first question (as expected) : tell me something about you?
{I thought this was going to be an informal interview, who takes a formal one for 2nd year internship}....................
So I an.s....w..e..r.ed : i am pursuing B Tech from this college, I am good at this, i am determined.......blah, blah, blah!!!!!! (This sucked me and probably interviewers also..........)
I thought I am gone and then I waited for the next question.
Then they asked 2-3 technical question and I felt relieved, at least I have something to speak confidently...........I was calm, composed sitting there while giving answers and precisely controlled the movement of hands.
This goes fine and then I took a long deep breath consoling me that this was not so bad, I am going to be selected.....they told me to wait outside and they went to their office.
After 20 minutes in silence, a person comes to me bringing the joining letter. I was delighted to receive that. Many things happen for the first time, first time going to a company, facing first interview, first letter received.......................all these moments were very special.........:)
