The day when Verizon interviewed me.
Campus Interview 2003 :
College of Engineering, Trivandrum, Kerala, India.
When asked "Where do you find yourself after two years"
I said "I don't know where I will be after two years, but
after 5 or 6 years, I'll be in Oracle not as DBA* but as a
Linux administrator. Because Oracle is shifting to Linux
and I need time to grow". Immediately after the HR interview
when I told the incidents to my friends and teachers, they
all said what a big mistake I have made - Speaking about
Oracle in Verizon's interview !!. Some teachers though said
that it all depends on the interviewer - in what sense he/she
takes the matter. I gave up all hopes and went back to our
department lab. Then a friend came rushing and said that
I was selected :D I cannot forget that day.
*(I'm OCP)
