Dear All,

  Following is the WA and Weekend activity this week:

WA:

 Write and submit your resume, find attached a sample resume for your guidance.

Weekend activity:

Mock Panel interviews:

Each mentor will have a set of 10 students who would take the mock interview this weekend,
following would be the arrangement of logistics:

1. 1 Mentor and 3 students on the Panel at any point of time. It should be organized in such
a way that every student would get a chance to sit on the panel to be asking questions and
they would be attending the interview too.
2. Strict instructions to be given to the students that they need to come in formals, with tie
and they should carry their resume in a printed format.
3. The interview is going to be a HR Interview and the questions can be the usual questions
which they can browse on the net. It is essential that each student needs to gather a few
questions which can be asked and prepare for the questions which would be asked.
4. One of you should be talking to them about the mock interviews to be held today, I would
prefer Ms.Kavita at JNTU and Mr.Phani at JNTU and IIIT respectively as they are the
senior mentors. Brief them on how they should be writing their resume and should be
preparing for their mock interviews. Simple questions like 'Tell me about yourself' etc
should be well answered and confidently.
5. Please also arrange the handy cam/ laptops to record the interviews done and we can give
them the feedback after playing it back.

And all of you can follow the given format of the resume below:
