Getting a job in this recession-rid market is nothing less than a battle; precisely why you should take care not to mess up a personal interview if you get hold of a good job. Freshers especially become nervous while facing the panel for the first time. Here are a few questions to help you plan the right answers:

• Tell us something about yourself: Highlight on your past achievements in the previous job.
• How do you rate your abilities for the job: Focus on the job requirement and craft your answer depending on your merit based skills.
• Have you applied somewhere else: Do not hesitate to tell the truth. That shows how transparent and focused you are.
• What are your salary expectations: Quote your expectations directly and justify why you deserve it.
