Interview (campus placement-ONGC)

I am going to share my experience of the interview during campus placement (ONGC)at NATIONAL INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY RAIPUR on 30 JANUARY 2012.
There were four interviewers which will be numbered I1,I2,I3,I4.(they were seated from left to right)
Here it starts;
                                      I was anxiously waiting for my turn and one can easily guess by my gait that i was completely tensed (which i do not want to be).Then a very good friend of mine came,held my hand and uttered these words which instantaneously uplifted my confidence "Remember one thing;there are only two possibilities that could happen ,either you get selected in the company or you get to study in Germany (by this time i was planning to pursue MS). ". These words in that situation proved to be very helpful (since knowing the possibilities cleared my mind from the fears)and i thank GOD for selecting him(my friend) in the same company as my colleague.

The first interviewer opened the door and called
I1: ACHALLA (my surname)
Me:Yes sir.
I1:Come in
(went inside and wished them Good Morning)

I3:Satya,Please take your seat.
Me:Thank you sir.
