About Myself - Company's Newsletter

Interviewing the Interviewer

This month, we decided to know a little more about the person who would have interviewed most of us. Yes. I am talking about Daffodil. She is the person who is handling the roles of a recruitment specialist and at the same time shouldering responsibilities of a HR generalist.

Tell us something about yourself.

To this, Daffodil became reluctant and after a while, gave a sneak preview to her career. She looked back in time and remembered the early days when she had joined IIHT. It's been 1.4 years now and she mentions that this journey has been quite experiential.

Tell us about your experience at IIHT

Daffodil mentioned that she has a total of 4.8 years of experience out of which 1.4 years have been spent being associated with IIHT. Prior to this, she was handling IT recruitment for Thomson Reuters. She mentions that IIHT has been very proactive in understanding her potential and she was handling the roles of a HR generalist in no time. This was apart from her key result area of being a recruitment specialist. She mentions that this journey at IIHT has been a great learning for her and wishes to continue to provide support to the organization and learn from it at the same time.

What are you looking forward to at IIHT?
To this, she mentions that the great thing about IIHT is that the organization treats everyone equally and there is no discrimination between a fresh hire and a veteran. She wishes to put in place some recognition program wherein the employees are recognized on various grounds for the wonderful job that they have been doing. She mentions that this is a great way to boost employee motivation and enhance their
morale.

What do you do in your free time?
Daffodil mentions that she barely manages to find some free time. But when she does, she spends it talking to her friends and derives great joy out of it. Though not an avid reader, she still manages to take some time out and read books

Discussion

I was supposing to handover a offer letter to the person for the role of Manager – Legal. So I dropped in one of the discussion room and gave the letter. In meanwhile I was inquisitive to know the laws as he comes with 28 years of experience in different laws like Labor, Criminal, Companies, Consumer etc.

So I threw few questions for which he started answering wherein the process of knowledge sharing started. I felt too good as it was long time I has such conversations as most of the time I end up in speaking of not much use. Some of the points where really impressive, that was said by him. Below are few which you might also like:

1. The situation where one of the disciple of Plato asked to Plato, “What is the meaning of the word “Justice”? The answer given was “It is what is due”. This context applies in all situations where the word “Justice” is used.
2. The conversation between the Ex – President of Australia while climbing down the stairs from some meeting and the other person in the crowd said, “You are fallen”, for which the President replied: “It was a slip”. The is a vast difference between “Fall” (Completely Lost) and “Slip” (One has just missed it”. It really inspired me.
3. He quoted some words saying “There is a hidden man in each person, which needs to be awaken, aroused” for which, I feel that’s where one lacks.
4. He also referred even an idiot has some skill which normal man cannot understand. I feel for that idiot, we are idiots as we are unable to understand what is conveyed.
5. One more important line was “Success can be achieved by two kinds of People, one with born intelligence and the other with hardship” where 2% of them are born intelligence and 20% with hardship would reach the sky.
6. The bottom line was “ There should be fire in the belly to go up, without which nothing can be achieved”.

THE DONKEY -Attitude -GOOD ONE

One day a farmer's donkey fell down into a well. The animal cried piteously for hours as the farmer tried to figure out what to do. Finally, he decided the animal was old, and the well needed to be covered up anyway; it just wasn't worth it to retrieve the donkey.

He invited all his neighbours to come over and help him. They all grabbed a shovel and began to shovel dirt into the well. At first, the donkey realized what was happening and cried horribly. Then, to everyone's amazement he quieted down.

A few shovel loads later, the farmer finally looked down the well. He was astonished at what he saw. With each shovel of dirt that hit his back, the donkey was doing something amazing. He would shake it off and take a step up.


As the farmer's neighbours continued to shovel dirt on top of the animal, he would shake it off and take a step up. Pretty soon,
everyone was amazed as the donkey stepped up over the edge of the well and happily trotted off!

MORAL :

Life is going to shovel dirt on you, all kinds of dirt. The trick to getting out of the well is to shake it off and take a step up. Each of our troubles is a steppingstone. We can get out of the deepest wells just by not stopping, never giving up! Shake it off and take a step up.


Remember the five simple rules to be happy:

1. Free your heart from hatred - Forgive.
2. Free your mind from worries - Most never happen.
3. Live simply and appreciate what you have.
4. Give more.
5. Expect less

Thoughts flowing in me

  • Life is so simple, but the situations makes it so complicated where one would have lost that ability to understand the simplicity
  • The difference between the attitude and the arrogance. One should know when to be arrogant and when to throw attitude.
  • Change is permanent, everything else is momentary
  • Time is lovely waves which pass only once with its imprints left behind
  • All are only characters in a play, where one would have a definite role to stage

Gyaan

Today came across a situation, where I found the following needs to be known by a hiring manager before hiring a person:

One should know for which a person is been hired
One should know what needs to get done from the person hired
The one hired should know what he/she knows to do

If these points are crystal clear, most of the work can be offloaded and will fall in place. But if one fails to know this prior, trust me it a mess for a HR, Hiring Manager and the applicant.

Perception

Perception will drastically change with times. It is just the formation of concept and a process of conceiving: cognizance by the senses or intellect. Everyone has deep pre-conceived perceptions, beliefs and views of all that is important to them. This is something, which would shape the individuality and make one unique.

To change these beliefs and views to that of another person's, especially when there is change, is not prudent. The immediate reaction to persuasion is to resist, defend and reject even when they are wrong. If one does succeed in overcoming the refusal, they might concede reluctantly after repeated attempts. Then might misunderstand that person,  for making them aware, they are wrong about what they believed or felt was right in the first place.

None of them want to be proved wrong; rather would like some compliments or appreciations. We tend to like people who will keep up the beliefs of others and know to respect their individual’s decisions.

You're somewhat risk-averse today, but by no means timid! You just find it prudent to watch and wait instead of leaping ahead boldly and taking your chances. Go for something bold another day.

Cloudy but blue sky

The climate is cool and not feel like working at all..
The view from the workstation is tempting me for a long drive on the country side, wherein I can be part of the mother nature and experience the uniqueness of creation.. Now I want to see squirrel cracking the net in midst of greens, rabbits moving around the bush, the cuckoo singing for me and the river flowing nearby,,,,

Wow, feel so good… No mood to work at all.. But no other option, I have to.

Telepathy…..

Sometime yesterday, I buzzed my friend and at the same time by my friend was thinking about me.. So I got a call immediately and we started speaking how come we both got to think about each other same time and got to contact then…. So we came up with the topic about incarnation.. Then we started discussing about incarnation and what bond we have shared in the past etc

But then I felt, it’s not about incarnation, whereas it’s the frequency match that we share, wherein we tend to communicate through the wavelengths which might be called as TELEPATHY.

Telepathy means :
· Telepathy is the direct transference of thought from one person (sender) to another person (receiver) without using normal sensory channels.
· The ability to communicate on another level than verbal and written - you communicate using only your mind. It's sending and receiving thoughts.
· Transfer of physical, emotional or mental energy, and or a combination of these energies, from one living being to another without physical contact.
· Telepathy is instinctual. Primitive species used it as a survival mechanism. It involves mind to mind contact communication - beyond the use of the five physical senses - sight, hearing, touch, taste, smell.

Well, this is one of the form of communication, wherein one can communicate or convey what they want… I think I am blessed with this as most often I tend to think about my loved ones and the next moment I get to speak to them or see them..
