Common questions in Interview | Job Interview | Career

Common questions in Interview | Job Interview | Career

Some mostly asked questions in an Interview, but not to be answered casually.



The job interview can be done by employer  (covers HR) only, but sometimes an employer is also a Psychologist by his experience and knowledge. So interview becomes bit typical.

Following are the few questions which look casual but inside, they help employer to judge our professional level.

1) Have you worked under Pressure?

A professional can adjust in any condition. Performance should be discouraged due to any reason.

2) How do you see yourself in five years ?

A professional person should response carefully in a wider context of his professional and personal life.  Your answer will show your personality and desire for success.

3) How do you organize your time?

 Individual should highlight importance of time in first line, then justify his/her level of punctuality and responsiveness.

4) Do you prefer working alone or in team ?

Most appropriate answer would be a team player. In less cases individual efforts can be profitable, but teamwork is most productive and fruitful.

Choosing a Profession

Choosing a Profession

Choice of profession (or its replacement), for most of us is not easy, big-nerves. Many will say to you: "Listen to your heart," or "do what you love, what you have a passion," but these are not very useful tips. When I graduated from university, I liked that a lot. But to say that I have felt for some business love, or even passion - yet it would be an exaggeration.

We all want to choose a career that will make us happy, but how do we know that it can be? Studies suggest that people tend to have no idea how to anticipate what they will experience, doing this or that matter in the future.  And really, how can I know that I would be happy if I became a bank investor, or an artist, or a professor, if anything like I've never worked? Who, in the history of mankind, chose a job where everything was exactly as he had imagined?

But if passion and the expected happiness cannot be a guide for the choice of profession, what can? To begin with, it makes sense to choose a career that fits your skills and values. If you have some idea about yourself (hopefully), it's a good start.

Less obvious, though no less important point - you need to choose a job that will match your motivation.

PRECAUTIONS AFTER AN EARTHQUAKE OCCURRED

PRECAUTIONS AFTER AN EARTHQUAKE OCCURRED


• Ensure that no one injured in the family, if any, do not move those with serious injuries because that can cause further injury.
• Do not drive barefoot.
• Watch for places where there is or was fire.
• Turn off the main water line, gas and electricity. Many times forgetting these precautions have been reasons for fires, explosions and major water losses even after many hours of the quake happened.
• Do not light matches, lighters or artifacts from open flames. It could cause an explosion by a gas leak somewhere.
• Do not turn on or turn off electrical appliances or switches, if you suspect a gas leak. These may spark and ignite the gas.
• Beware of fallen or objects in contact with these electrical cables.
• Do not use the telephone to things that are not of extreme urgency. For information, use the portable radio in which you will get a list of the damage caused by the disaster and the area it covers.
 • Make sure your home is out of risk of landslides or other effects. Because usually after the main quake aftershocks occur, which are less intense, but some are strong enough to cause collapse of buildings or houses affected by the first event.
• Stay away from fireplaces, cornices and walls cracked or semi destroyed. Do not forget that sometimes after the earthquake landslides cause.
 • Remember that the Armed Forces, Police, Civil Police, Red Cross, Fire and Civil Defense have the mission to safeguard and protect the inhabitants. Turn to them for help in these misfortunes.
• Do not drive through the streets most affected by the earthquake. Keep the streets clear not to obstruct vehicular traffic or emergency personnel.
• If you are on the coast, do not travel along the beaches or in areas close to them. Remember that some earthquakes with epicenter in the sea and a sizeable sea waves called Tsunamis generated within the following hours when the earthquake happened.

There are many dangers that exist during earthquakes and there are no specific rules to avoid them. But if we act with seismic conscience, keeping calm and helping others to have it, applying the simple but no less important given in this Primer advice, we can reduce a large proportion of personal and material accidents and their pain and destruction.

PRECAUTIONS DURING AN EARTHQUAKE

PRECAUTIONS DURING AN EARTHQUAKE


Never be panic and flee in terror from home, stay calm and try to reassure others. Think of the consequences of any actions you take.

If you are outdoors:

• Do not run the streets.

• Stay away from tall buildings, walls, lampposts and other objects that could fall, such as cornices, windows, fireplaces, and other ornaments.

• If possible go to an open area free of hazards or otherwise seek shelter in doorways of houses or buildings.

If you are in a car:

• Look for a secure place, open area would be more appropriate.

If you are in a public and busy place:

• Do not rush to the exits, they all will do the same, take shelter as directed to protect indoors. If you must leave, be careful while selecting the exits.

If you are inside a house or building:

• Be careful from households which can slide during earthquake, such as high libraries, cabinets, shelves, among others.

• Do not stand near windows or mirrors. Remember these can explode.

• In case of danger cover under a table, desk, bed, etc.

• Being in a tall building do not rush towards the exits, its very  much risky inside any office or Department. Remember that electricity is interrupted in the elevators; the scales may be broken and congested.

• In educational institutions, teachers must remain calm for students and prevent them from being squeezed out of the classroom. The most appropriate shelter is under their desks, to protect themselves from falling over.

PRECAUTIONS PRIOR TO AN EARTHQUAKE


PRECAUTIONS PRIOR TO AN EARTHQUAKE


• Note that not all earthquakes are destructive, only a small percentage of them.

• Inspect your home, locate potential places of risks and safe places that provide shelter in a seismic emergency, for example, under door frames, a firm table, chains walls.

• Never leave panicked fleeing in terror shape of your house or within public places.

• Do not let obstacles on the road to escape doors and make sure they open easily.

• Store in a safe place a container with fresh water depending on the media, a small pantry with foods rich in protein and carbohydrates preserved.

• Keep a portable first aid kit with the necessary tools to meet sprains, dislocations, stab wounds, among others. Also, be careful instruction in first aid of family members.

• Teach responsible members of your family, stopping or cutting electricity.

• Keep family talks seriously about earthquakes and other disasters. So all together may think what to do during an earthquake, regardless of where they are. This concern will provide assistance to you. And yours to act calmly and constructively in an earthquake or other emergency.

• Do not place the pots on balconies or other heavy objects.

• Attach the walls of your home shelves and do not put high heavy unstable objects in the part. These even with low-intensity tremors originate misfortunes.

Earthquake Defined

Earthquake Defined

What is Earthquake ?

An earthquake is the sudden movement of the Earth , due to the sudden release of stored energy for a longer time. The crust of the earth is consisted of a dozen plates of about 70 km thick, each with different physical and chemical characteristics. These plates ("tectonic") are settling into a process that takes millions of years and have been given the shape we know today to the surface of our planet, causing the continents and geographic reliefs in a process. Mostly these movements are slow, but in few conditions these plates collide like giant icebergs ground on an ocean of magma present in the depths of our Earth, avoiding its movement. That make a plate to move over or under the other causing slow changes in topography. But if the movement is hampered begins to build an energy of stress at some time be released and one of the plates will move sharply against another breaking and then releasing a variable amount of energy that causes the earthquake.

The areas in which the plates exert this force between them are called faults and are, of course, the points most likely originate seismic. Only 10% of the earthquakes occur away from the boundaries of these plates.

Underground process accured by a volcano eruption process may cause a similar phenomenon.

In general the term earthquake is associated with earthquakes of considerable size, although rigorously its etymology means "Earth movement".

Hypocenter
It is the point where the depth of the Earth from where the energy is released in an earthquake. When it occurs in the bark of it (up to 70 km deep) is called superficial. If it occurs between 70 and 300 km is called intermediate and if greater depth: deep (remember that the center dela Earth is approximately 6,370 km deep).

Epicenter
Is the point of the surface of the Earth directly above the hypocenter course where earthquake intensity is greater.
