Job..In Interview, In Project

I came across few people in job and the moments during their interaction, I jump into imagining the interview scene. Though i have not interviewed any one as a process of recruitment, whenever i interact with them i have a bad habit of interrogating them from their schooling to past company.
One good thing i like about myself i donot complain much. But one bad thing is if i really need help or clarification or doubts, i will think twice(struggle) before approaching them just because i donot want to disturb them or feel its not their job to help me... I feel i came out of that stage now with all the lessons learnt. It's obvious that when you have confidence the world looks tiny.

People would have lot of confidence in interview/interaction, they project themselves as the most effecient resource. Once they get assigned to work, they startup saying that in my old company it was like..., i was like.. , work was like.... ,I feel most of them are complaints which will actually let them down (conditions apply..) This statement however doesn't imply for everyone. It's not a single person's mistake, a frog in the well would imagine whole world is same and as they are succesful in their current job they feel any job is same. Recruiter would not be clear with the requirements(biggest barrier).. I remember one of my manager used the word mass recruitment.

I feel i have seen so many scenarios in life and these experiences teach what actually is job. Managers spend much of the time on analysis , and would always hold their words tight on time lines tasks.. Initially i used to wonder what the hell are these meetings, why can't we just jump into coding..however i learnt now.. because they know that the battle begins and the result can only be Win/Lose. He would be that careful because somewhere in life he failed once and paid for it :) :)..

Moment i believe that OH MY GOD i think i learnt enough, there is another new surprise waiting for me to repeat the same "OH MY GOD".. These suprises would be Good and Bad as well. :) :)

I am responsible for the success of our team in coordinating with Business.

Title seems wierd and routine. For complete understanding read entire article. You may relate for your self some where below.

Now its time for appraisal at office. Time to fill performance logs. We have to project ourself as superior and all positives to survive and ask for promotion and Hike... Lead has already crossed this phase so he will also be trained with the process of handling the emotions of his time. Now when i am filling my appraisal form with all achievements a memory of my childhood is pinning my mind.
In my younger days, being mom's pet and observing her finally decided to do my first experiment by cooking a dish without anyone's help. Later i distributed it to neighbors expecting compliments and i got many. But what happened in meanwhile is my mom added enough flavors which i observed in secret but she never revealed as she want me to get credits for my efforts. Though i knew that, i just said to all that it was done by me only from start to end. Mom was feeling happy and proud inside....Mom's feelings are totally an out of box thoughts for this port.. :)..
Even now I am having the same feeling. Whenever a requirement comes, We discuss with our manager, do enough research, analyze and come up with all possible output, covering the SDLC... Not much explanation required for this.
Here comes the problem..How to project that I have only done all the tasks? If i say i got guidance and later implemented people say, Are you not independent? Affects appraisal. If I say I have only done this, Where should i include the role of people who helped me. If i need to ignore them, My mind is not at all allowing me to project myself as achiever.

Hence the Conclusion : Software engineer is a Robot with enough Inputs and extraordinary outputs.

My Favorite Month March has begun...Ending the February Fever

February fever an exciting event conducted by hyderabadtechies.info has ended finally... Time is moving very fast.. February has passed away. There were 50+ Online sessions and i am still wondering as i feel it was just started Yesterday and ended today... In this short span quite lot of experiences...System OS got corrupted..Lost some important information.. A day outing for Cricket from office but winded up with practice match itself which was great fun again. Gained much information about technology because of these Online sessions...Little fights with near and dear ones. Started believing in few things which i never expected and self cautioning my self. A holy Shivarathri fasting and felt as if i got divine blessings and many many more... So many moments in just one month..Life is wonderful.February finally ended with an SMS saying that "Me along with family shifting permanently to Mumbai on 29th of February. Will miss you very much..Thanks for being such a nice friend..Bye".. A common message to all friends... First was surprised to hear that later realised no 29 in this month... Anyways March has begun my favorite month... Waiting for the new experiences it will get in this month. Hope will be busy with KT as the team is returning from Onsite :).. Getting to know future also :) . Why dont all days be alike? If they are same it would be like like eating same dishes every day... Different curries different tastes that's life :).. Tough to bear sometimes..But good to remember later that we crossed all barriers. Lots of philosophy want to wind up now...

February fever at Microsoft User Group Hyderabad Hyderabadtechies.info

February fever and this post is exclusiveley for Microsoft developers. Lots of technical fun @http://hyderabadtechies.info

My Session at Community Tech Days Hyderabad(CTD)

Community Techdays are Microsoft User Group activities that would be broadcasted live for Microsoft Developers and IT Pros. This is the first huge crowd that i appeared after i entered into my career. Those school days and college days are different but here it was very much unique.. there were professionals and enthusiasts. I didn't inform any of my friends that I am going to present something there a short session as even i was not sure about that..It was really a big day dream and night mare with tension around me.

It was wonderful as i met good friends over there and i was not really in senses..I can see nothing around and my sole concentration was about the presentation and what i speak. People usually call me express and i often get the feedback to be a bit slow.. But finally i will get a good feedback ( Self appraisal as something is better than nothing).. Anyways it was fun, excitement, happiness that i achieved something.. Have to target for more bigger things from now.. I know i just started up..Just wishing and praying god to help me achieve my passion. Now there are lots of things i have to learn and should get ready for further events.. Was searching for such a way since long time and hope now i got the opportunity.
I have learned many things there.. Moving from beginners to professional speakers i.e how to become a professional speaker is what i have learned there and highlight session of the event which I was impressed was of an MVP VijayRaj on Windows 7..The most funfilled and superb session. All the other sessions were very technical and i felt like i knew nothing..Lot many concepts to learn ahead...
My Special Thanks to Chandrashekar Thota.. the man behind http://hyderabadtechies.info/ and is inspiration for many aspirants like me.Pranav and Shravan core team of hyderabadtechies. Wishing the team all success in future...

TechWar 2009 at hyderabadtechies.info.. Microsoft Developer User Group.

After looking at MSDN Newsletter(http://msdotnettechies.wordpress.com/2010/01/21/msdn-news-letter/)…I just want to put down my thoughts and experiences and my status after the continuous 48 hours sessions followed by my office hours with a dried face as if not slept for years but still I have got some cheerful smile. I honestly say that what kept me awoke and alert to participate in the session is the core team. In fact I was confused puzzled or shocked or what not when I heard this mind blowing idea of keeping oneself awake for 48 hours. From where do we get people to speak who will be patient to hear? Are people so workaholic or technoholic(No such word exits introduced by me)??? So many questions but still there was amazing feeling and excitement and confidence on the team. When I just entered the session like the day before I got couple of mails regarding the schedule and keynote and I was asked to speak and introduce Aswin and I was in little bit of trans when I heard that I am gng to introduce someone an MVP( More than President of USA for me)…Also not only the sessions I have to give but I have to manage In between…From there Team Hyderabad techies turned out to be WE the TEAM Hyderabad techies. I have one exciting moment in life which can be remembered for ever as I do watch so many technical videos How do I videos..Presenters sharing their Presentations and then showing a demo…At instances my hand used move over the mouse and I used to get involved as if its my session…. This is really a dream come true for me.. Thanks to http://hyderabadtechies.info ( Microsoft User Group Hyderabad ) ….. Hope the team rocks on and on and give such opportunities to aspirants like me … Even I am contributing my part and now Core team Member...Hey I was the winner even there. The so called BEST OUTSTANDING SPEAKER :) http://hyderabadtechies.info/index.php/tech-war-2009-awards-announced ..Here's the proof.

My Team Sessions @ Assembly

My team meeting reminds me of AP Assembly Session :) :)

Just kidding as nothing can be compared with Assembly.
In my previous company there was only one speaker and no questioners. Even if some one asks a doubt he will be called an extraordinary genious..

Experiences with team meetings here in my second job..every one asks the questions. There will be one speaker and many questioers and there by many volunteers to answer the doubts and it goes on and on as a discussion. All the associates here in this comapany are well experienced..Behave as perfect professionals and even though no one has a grey hair but every one has touched so many architectures and Domains and i am feeling wonderful abt the scenarios they apply and think about myself "why didn't i get this doubt???" and later compromise saying that " All these things comeup with Experience." Ofcourse its the fact.

I am now ready to present a session here just becoz i got the confidence that even if someone asks a doubt out of my knowledge there are lot more to answer it before i can speak :) :)....

Finally what happens is the session will be planned for an hour and the presenter comes with 10-15 slides and wil be at his 3 rd slide itself at the end of an hour..Mean while discussion is all abt these 3 slides itself with hell lot of scenarios around..

But I am enjoying because i want to learn learn and learn :).
