Hi,

Thanks to all for putting up their experiences - it really helped. Following was my experience from my interview today morning.I was blessed to come before one of the VOs who looked very pleasant and friendly and throughout the process he was smiling.

Me: Hi, Good Morning
VO: Good morning

Looks through my papers and passes some from the file which are my copies. Types something into computer. Asks me to scan index finger.

VO: So which client will you be working for?
Me: XYZ
VO: So what are you going to do there?
Me: My answer (for those who mentioned requirement gathering was not considered- I did mention it but I also mentioned more tasks which I would be doing in addition)
VO: What is the application name and what is it about?
Me: ABC and it's a client appln.
VO: So how many months with XYZ client?
Me: Answer
VO: So why are they sending you instead of someone from U.S?
Me: Explained about my experience and knowledge on appln.
VO: How many with the same knowledge?
Me: Number (only few people there)
VO: So who will you be reporting to?
Me: Answer
VO: Where will you be working?
Me: Company location

Overall - it seemed that he was observing me a lot as I answered probably to judge if I was genuine.

Observations from few rejections I witnessed, seemed some questions like work location (for l1 should not be client location) were not answered properly, then some who seemed to explain a lot when questioned.

So prepare well (this site mentions all the questions I got 95%), and attend. Put 100% from your side and rest up to God, so pray and keep calm. I found myself getting nervous when waiting and forgetting the answers I planned to say, so I took deep breaths and stopped thinking about what i would say. ALso, talking slow and clear helps as this gave me time to think my answers before saying it out loud.

All the best!
