  Trends in IT  
 
 

 
Certain areas have been changed due to the IT wave. This has brought about a certain development along several fronts such as security, e-business and d-bases. Over time, a general trend has been observed. It could be worth taking a note, if you need to know the way in which IT could be heading next.

Security
The demand of broadband Internet security products is expected to rise, as Security is one of the leading internet-related problems. In addition to this, organizations are seeking Managed Security Services for constant monitoring of systems and networks.
With an increase in consumer understanding about the need for intrusion protection, the demand for basic software and hardware firewall will also escalate.

E-business
As companies streamline their internal and external processes, the legacy systems often become outdated. To facilitate such restructuring and daily business activities, E-knowledge systems are being implemented. As a part of the streamlining, Intranets, Extranets and E-Commerce are being implemented in certain places.

Dbases
Maintaining large databases can be an issue if an organization does not have the means or the space onsite to do so. Data Warehousing and Data Mining improve storage and accessibility of such vast information. As more and more organizations opt for such systemization, the scope for such technology will also increase.

  Interview Tips  
     
 
 

Now, your résumé testifies to the fact that you have the skill and considerable experience as well. But an interviewer can only rely best on his imagination and gut feeling about the kind of person you are, whether or not you would fit well into the organization with respect to attributes like forthrightness, confidence and interest towards your job among other things. An interview is where you present yourself; apart form your work. There is also an element of dialogue involved between the interviewee (that’s you) and the interviewer. So you have to be convincing about why you need this job, why do you like what you do, or even why you collect used curtain rings for a hobby! Basically, have logic to any question that comes your way.

Here are a few guidelines that you can keep in mind before you land yourself that perfect job. All the best!


Pre-interview Research

Dos

Don'ts

Write your CV either in the chronological or functional format Never fabricate portions of your CV
Look out for gaps in your CV Don't be unaware of what has been written in your CV
Practice answers for most likely questions It could be fatal to leave anything to assumption
Look up the employer’s company website for information, know more about them Never post pone preparation until the 11th hour
Brush up on your diction and grammar Don't ever take the situation for granted

^TOP^

During the interview

Dos

Don'ts

Be on time – do ring in and inform if you will be late Avoid talking too much-articulate your answers well and make them short and sweet
Be honest Don't fabricate details- they’d appreciate your honesty
Be positive Never assume the questions or get rattled- ask them to repeat if necessary
Answer to the point with examples if required Don't criticize your previous employees-especially within the industry
Ask meaningful questions about the job, its challenges and expectations Avoid the know-it-all syndrome
Carry spare copies of your CV and photographs Don’t be nervous

  Common Hurdles  
     
 
 

Dressing improperly
Wear simple formals

Sliding across the room and into your chair
Walk upright, and extend a firm handshake

Lacking courtesy
Be sure to use ‘good morning’ and ‘thank you’, ‘if I may’ etc. judiciously

Appearing listless and indifferent towards the job

Looking at the walls instead of your interviewer
Remember, it’s a dialogue

Giving half answered questions

Making excuses for unfavourable aspects in record

Coming across as someone who expects too much too soon
Be tactful in laying down your expectation

Appearing indecisive about issues
Be clear about your goals
