Java Questions  

Posted by Rajiv Pandey in , , ,

Java, the language- is a high-level object-oriented programming language, influenced in various ways by C, C++, and Smalltalk, with ideas borrowed from other languages as well (see O'Reilly's History of Programming Languages). Its syntax was designed to be familiar to those familiar with C-descended "curly brace" languages, but with arguably stronger OO principles than those found in C++, static typing of objects, and a fairly rigid system of exceptions that require every method in the call stack to either handle exceptions or declare their ability to throw them. Garbage collection is assumed, sparing the developer from having to free memory used by obsolete objects.
One of Java's more controversial aspects--widely accepted at the time of its release but increasingly criticized today--is its incomplete object-orientation. Specifically, Java primitives such as int, char, boolean, etc. are not objects, and require a completely different treatment from the developer: as int is not a class, you cannot subclass and declare new methods on it, cannot pass it to a method that expects a generic Object, and so on. The inclusion of primitives increases Java performance, but at the arguable expense of code clarity, as anyone who's had to work with the so-called "wrapper classes" (Integer, Character, and Boolean) will attest. Java 5.0 introduces an "autoboxing" scheme to eliminate many uses of the wrapper classes, but in some ways it obscures what is really going on.

Database Questions.......  

Posted by Rajiv Pandey

A database is a collection of information that is organized so that it can easily be accessed, managed, and updated. In one view, databases can be classified according to types of content: bibliographic, full-text, numeric, and images.
databases are sometimes classified according to their organizational approach. The most prevalent approach is the relational database, a tabular database in which data is defined so that it can be reorganized and accessed in a number of different ways. A distributed database is one that can be dispersed or replicated among different points in a network. An object-oriented programming database is one that is congruent with the data defined in object classes and subclasses....

Data Warehousing Interview Questions  

Posted by Rajiv Pandey

A Data warehouse is a repository of integrated information, available for queries and analysis. Data and information are extracted from heterogeneous sources as they are generated. This makes it much easier and more efficient to run queries over data that originally came from different sources". Another definition for data warehouse is: " A data warehouse is a logical collection of information gathered from many different operational databases used to create business intelligence that supports business analysis activities and decision-making tasks, primarily, a record of an enterprise's past transactional and operational information, stored in a database designed to favour efficient data analysis and reporting (especially OLAP)". Generally, data warehousing is not meant for current "live" data, although 'virtual' or 'point-to-point' data warehouses can access operational data. A 'real' data warehouse is generally preferred to a virtual DW because stored data has been validated and is set up to provide reliable results to common types of queries used in a business....

Shoot Your Interview Now!!!!!!!!  

Posted by Rajiv Pandey in , , , ,

Do not see interviews as the chance, think it as an opportunity to present you to a company. It is a chance for you to prove yourself in front of the interviewer, so you should come with full preparation of questions you need answers. You can search for the company profile. Also gather the latest information on that company. If want all information about the company then a good option is to check their website which may have more background information. If you want to do well at the interview, you will need to convince the interviewer that you are technically qualified to do the job.

The job interview tips covered most job interview tips and also covered lots of things which we have to avoid during interview.

Job Interview Tips:-

Some job interview tips are given below, please go through it, that will help you a lot.


Preparation and confidence

Preparation and confidence are very important tips. Good preparation always creates confidence. So the important thing to an interview is to be well prepared. In this you have to consider two things:
You must prepare yourself practically for the interview.
You have to gather information which is useful during the interview.


Checklist


While going to interview you must consider the following things:
1. You have to confirm about the time, date and location of the interview and name of interviewee where appropriate.
2. You have to plan to get there no earlier than half an hour before the interview time.
3. You must ready with your dress which is professional.
4. Concentrate on the interview at the interview.
5. If you are asked to bring certificates, references etc., get them ready before the day. Your interview letter must be with you.
6. On arrival ensure the receptionist knows you are there.

Be on time!


Public transport may be useless if the traffic is heavy. Always keep in mind that you never get a second chance to make a first impression. So be on time at the particular location of interview.
Also if you are there so early, you can wait nearby cafe of shop. And if you are going to be late, then best option is call them.


Be Prepared!

Preparation means not only preparation of your syllabus etc. but also look at the company's website and learn something about the company before you attend your interview.

Write down and practice possible questions!

If you collect the job interview sample questions and practice for it then it will make easy to remember when you get to the interview. Use the third person when talking about the job. Avoid sounding as though you assume the job is yours.
It is fine to ask about the package on offer and accommodation - living in and living out are particularly relevant. Do not forget to find out if the company will guarantee a resort or chalet - many will only allocate you a country. You could also try a fewer more testing questions such as how they differentiate themselves from their competitors or what they think the toughest/hardest part of the job is.


You never get a second chance to make a first impression!

First keep in mind that you never the second chance to make a first impression so be careful. Some points are here to remember:

Smile is one of the thing which may matter in your impression. Good smile always please people.
Dressing also an important thing. You should be in professional dress. And must be looking formal
.

Do not forget for firm handshake.

Eye contact without glaring is showing your confidence.

Do not talk too much!


Always remember that communication is two-way things so give them a chance. Also don't interrupt to interviewer when he/she is talking. Give him/her full chance to talk. One common mistake candidates make when interviewing is talking too much. It is important to listen to the question asked and answer that question. Keep your answers to two to three minutes at the most. When you limit your time, you tend to stay more focused. It is very easy to stray off the subject and ramble about things irrelevant to the job if your answer is too long.

Be enthusiastic and positive!

During interview always enthusiastic. Do not say bad points for the previous employers. Focus on positive achievements and views.

Check in During Interviews


Your initial interview answers should be brief. But some of your best stories may take time to detail, then after two minutes ask for permission to go on. You may say something like, "Now I have described about my project, would you like to hear about my role in detail?"

Answer Briefly

The best interviews have a give and take atmosphere. To do this, you need to ask questions and try to draw out your interviewer rather than talking about yourself nonstop. When it comes to talking during an interview, sometimes less is more. A general rule is you should speak one-third of the time and definitely no more than half of the time. When it is your turn to speak, do not hesitate to talk about yourself.

First Comes the Phone

Now a days telephone screening is becoming very common. So you need to be prepared for the phone to ring at any time. These screenings may be for 10 to 15 minutes, depending on your answers and fit for the job. it is helpful if you have thought about questions likely to be asked during the screening and prepared your answers.

Take a spare photo and CV with you!


It may happen that the interviewer wants your resume and photo. Your interviewer won't be expecting it so you will impress them. It also helps them remember you after the interview. So always keep a spare photo and resume with you while going to interview.

Look Them in the Eyes

Eye contact is showing your confidence. Eye contact is one of the most important aspects of nonverbal communication and can make a significant difference in how you present yourself. If you look away when speaking to someone, you are viewed as lacking confidence or interest. So always answer the question with eye contact to interviewer.

Look Better, Feel Better

If you want to spruce up your appearance for the interview but can not afford new clothes, consider altering an outfit you already have by pairing it with a different shirt, tie, blouse or accessory. Even on a tight budget, you can find some real bargains out there. Think about what you need before you go out shopping. Outlet stores and resale shops offer some great treasures. For better or worse, looks can make a difference.


Think of an Interview as a First Date


Instead of the Inquisition, think of a job interview as a first date: you are both trying to figure out if there is a match. This mindset proffers many advantages. You come off as curious, not desperate, you do not assume that too-formal, phony-appearing job-seeker persona, you talk about what you want to talk about instead of just passively getting bombarded with the employer's probes and you are more likely to ask questions during the interview. Those questions will help you assess if you really want the job. Treat the interview as a first date, and you will both be better informed when deciding whether you should hook up.

Bring Up a Weakness

In an interview, bring up a weakness before you are asked for one. For example, "I really need to work on my leadership skills. I am a good worker and totally competent, but sometimes I lack the confidence to stand up and take a leadership position." This will help you a lot as you want to improve yourself.

Get the Info

Informational interviews are a great way to get leads and information regarding company. It is important that the person you contact understands you are seeking information not a job. Be prepared when you ask for an appointment to say what you are looking for and why you want to talk to this person. At the informational interview, have a prepared list of questions. At the end, ask if the person has any recommendations of others you could speak with.

Virtual Thanks

You can send follow-up letters through email if this is the way you and the potential employer have been communicating all along.

Attitude Adjustment

It is difficult to remain upbeat in a tough job market. Isolating you and waiting for the phone to ring is the worst way to handle negative thoughts. When you start feeling down, take steps to turn your thinking around. Go for a walk, or do something fun. It may be just what you need to feel relaxed and at ease. Getting together with friends and having a support system will help you to laugh and keep going.

Explain Why You Left


Follow these guidelines when interviewers ask, "Why did you leave your company?" Carefully describe the reason for your departure, and do not go into details unless asked. Provide references to support your reasons for leaving and job performance. Stay with the facts of what happened, what you did, how you felt and what you learned. Then describe how you will handle things differently in the future.

Sell Yourself

Interviewing is about selling yourself. The product you are selling is you. Give them reasons to buy. Tell them what you can do for them. Emphasize what you can bring to the company, department and position. Convince them that your product is better than the competition's

Talking Salary

Timing is everything in the interview. Let them bring up the subject of money. If you are asked what your salary expectations are too early in the process, just say you would rather postpone that discussion until you have more information about the position.

Do not forget to listen

Listening is one of the most underused interview skills. Most candidates are so nervous about answering interview questions correctly that they forget to listen. Follow these tips:
Listen through eye contact.
Listen with nonverbal expressions.
Listen until the speaker is finished.
Do not interrupt
.


Ask the power questions


In the earlier you can ask these questions:
What are you most hoping to find in the person you hire?
What would be my first priorities on the job?


it is OK to be nervous


Not only is it OK to be nervous about an interview, but it is essential for you to accept how you feel. Telling yourself you should feel differently than you do is unrealistic and just makes you feel bad about yourself. What's the worst that can happen at an interview? For many, it would be not getting an offer. Did you ever think that maybe the job wasn't right for you? Try to look at the process as a learning experience.

Put up with rejection?

If you are rejected from the company, you may feel hurt, angry or fed up. Instead of being stuck in feeling rejected, take back the power by staying proactive. If you really wanted to work for that particular company, sit down and write a letter. Remind them of all the positive points you could bring to the organization. Let them know you are still interested in working for the company if something should change or open up.

Face the feedback

If you ask for feedback from an interviewer, be prepared to hear things that could be upsetting. You should listen carefully, and take notes to refer to and react to. Do not argue or defend yourself. At last do not forget to thank the interviewer. Then, take the advice and think about changing some techniques to improve on your next interview.

Follow the interviewer

During the interview, your interviewer is giving you information that can guide you on how to behave during the meeting. Observe your interviewer's style. Listen very carefully, and let him/her know that you have been listening by asking good questions and making good comments. Answer questions by providing the information asked for.

Emotional preparation


Preparing emotionally for the interview is also important. The right mood helps you perform at your best. Try out following points for preparing emotionally:
Get moving that means go for a walk, run, exercise, meditate, do yoga, stretch, dance.
Sing your favorite song while driving to the interview.
Repeat an inspirational phrase aloud that's meaningful for yo
u

Preparing to meet the employer


The interview is not the time to get to know about the post or the employers business. It is a chance for you and the employer to get to know one another.
Gather information about your employer before you are interviewed like what are their current projects, what other interests do they have? etc.
You should know job description, or ask someone in a similar post. Otherwise ring the company to clarify.
Keep in mind that the employer is interested in you as a person, your experiences and your opinions do take the time to sit down and think about you, who you are and what you have achieved.
Remember the one thing that your CV must be with you and make notes about your work record and what you have achieved. Make notes and prepare and rehearse sound bites about yourself.


Ask Questions

There is always the opportunity to ask them questions at the end of the interview, remember the interview is a two-way process, you need to be sure you want to join them. Try to concentrate on issues, which are both important to you and combine an apparent interest in the company. Write your questions down prior to the interview and take them with you.

Be honest!

Be honest with every question. No need to lying about your background and/or skills. If you get caught then you will definitely out. Job interviews are about matching needs, if there is not a good match, then there is no chance of job.


Check your CV for possible gaps!


If there is any gap between your academic then make sure you know how you are going to explain time gaps on your CV.

Presentation

Dressing is also important aspect at the time of interview. Dressing should be appropriate for the post and the company. Try to get information about what the company would expect from employees. What would be appropriate for a building company is very different for a public relations agency. Be well-groomed and clean and above all try to look confident.


Mind it before your Interview.

IT Interview Tips  

Posted by Rajiv Pandey in ,

Practicing for the interview


You have sent out hundreds of resumes and finally a Human Resource person calls to schedule a time for you to come in for a face to face interview. This is a great company, and you think you are perfect for the job. Now, you must demonstrate that to the hiring authority you are perfect for the position. Here are some pointers to keep in mind when going in for the interview practicing for the interview means practicing several behaviors not just answering questions. You must dress well, watch your body language and posture, practice your manners and eye contact as well as practice answering questions correctly, smoothly, and with confidence. The practice questions below, in one form or another, account for a large percentage of interview questions. With each question, you are given a series of choices as to how you might answer the question. When you select an answer, you will learn whether your answer is correct-and why. Answering these questions will help you polish your interviewing techniques. The questions and answers in this exercise are generic and, in many cases, must be tailored to your individual situation. Still, the logic behind the answer remains essentially the same..
Do not go in attempting to "wing" it. Keep in mind there are lots of competitors for the job, and you will only have this opportunity to impress the hiring authority. Research and know the company, their history, products, services and reputation .prepare answers to questions that will likely come up, like "What is your biggest weakness?" "What is your greatest failure?" "Describe your best and worse boss?" "Tell me
Something about yourself?" "Why did you leave your last job?" "How can you contribute to this company in this job?"
There will likely be a longer list of questions, each a potential landmine that can eliminate you from the competition. Keep your answers short and to the point. Do not ramble. Always be honest and avoid negative statements. Wear your best suit - The first impressions of a candidate are lasting. It is better to be over-dressed than under-dressed. Your appearance will demonstrate that you are taking the initiative. Go out of
Your way to make a good impression. Even if you never wear a suit to work, even if it is a production job, the interviewer will be pleased by your effort to impress.



These are most frequent Interview Questions. You should prepare well and Leave the result to God…

1. Why are you the best person for the job?

I’ve held a lot of positions like this one, and that experience
Will help me here."
"Because I am good at what I do."
"Our discussion here leads me to believe this is a good place to
Work." "You need someone who can produce results, and my background and
Experiences are proof of my ability. For example..."


2. Tell me about yourself.

1. Outline personal data, hobbies, and interests.

2. Give an overview of your personality and work habits.

3. Give three specific examples of your personality traits and
Accomplishments.


5. What are you looking for in a position?

1. "I'm looking for an opportunity to apply my skills and
contribute to the growth of the company while helping create
some advancement opportunities for myself."

Future of Information technology  

Posted by Rajiv Pandey in


Thinking about the future can help you shape it. Thinking too much about the future can make you spacey. By the year 2019, thanks to information technology (IT), humans will have largely overcome the limits of our humanity. We will have found cures for the major diseases that kill 95 percent of us in the developed world. By 2029, we will become godlike—tiny computer chips embedded into our bodies will stop disease and reverse aging, ever expanding our lifespans.
To be fair, computers are indeed amazing machines. PCs allow you to communicate with far more people than a phone or letter. They help you write far more efficiently than a typewriter or pen and paper. They make it possible to keep track of people and things far more easily than a roster or list. They let you budget, forecast, and plan far more effectively than a calculator or table. And they make education far more compelling than words and pictures on paper. between July and December of 2005, Accenture commissioned its researchers to deeply analyze the entire IT landscape and develop a vision for the future of information technology. The researchers analyzed more than 150 technologies and spent more than 10,000 man hours to generate 42 predictions about the future of information technologyThe purpose of the exercise was to re-evaluate our own approach to R&D and to help our clients prioritize their investments in and use of technology innovation to drive business performance. The team concluded that developments in four major technological areas—intelligent device and sensor networks, analytics, human to computer interaction, and new approaches to system building and integration—will dominate the future of information technology..........
