How will you survive a forest fire?
A forest fire is an uncontrolled event occurring in nature. With abundance of combustible material and air, it can spread fast and last for many days. Now check the following situation.
A fire team is hiking down a hill, where they plan to attack the fire. They are just five hundred meters away from the bottom of a hill, when they notice the fire spreading uphill.
All around them is flammable vegetation. Only sure way to safety is to reach to the top of the hill.
Due to high speed wind, the fire is moving up faster. In less than twenty minutes, the fire is expected to reach to the top of hill. Even the fastest runner can not cover the distance to the top of hill, before fire catches on him. You are also on this mission. How will survive this forest fire?

The interview is a game and practice can boost the performance
Taking time to think and writing an answer to the interview question will help you prepare the script. Writing a response sharpens your thought process and gives an opportunity to review the response and make improvement to the script. You don’t need to memorize the answer.
Thinking through, writing and reviewing the response to the interview questions increases preparedness, boosts the confidence and reduces anxiety. It builds up a repertoire of stories for easy retrieval and you can now focus on delivery during the actual interview. Your confidence spirals upwards with each answer and increases the chances of a better outcome.
Prepare well before the interview. Know the common interview questions. Learn the dos and don’ts. Write, practice and improve your specific response either by yourself or by feedback from a family member or a colleague or a teacher. You will gain mastery through practice.
As they say, if you want to be good at something, then you must practice to learn, and grow.
