Hi All,
Please have a look on the following article.

Your job interview has been going great, and it's coming to a close.
The final few minutes are crucial. You don't want to blow it by saying
the wrong thing on your way out the door.
To leave a good impression with the interviewer, your final words and
gestures should be enthusiastic and confident.
It's All in the Delivery
Are you unsure how to close a job interview? Take your cue from the
interviewer.
During the interview, pay attention not only to what the interviewer
says but also to how she says it. Notice her body language, tone of voice
and level of formality. And then tailor your closing remarks
accordingly.
But, no matter how the interview behaves, always be confident. Look her
in the eye when speaking. Thank her by name and firmly shake her hand
when saying goodbye.
Accentuate the Positive
Use the final few minutes of your job interview to emphasize the skills
that make you right for the job. This will ensure that your strengths
will be one of the last things that the interviewer hears -- helping her
to remember them.
Rehearse your closing so that you are not fumbling over your words.
You'll want to sound smooth and natural, not boastful. Start by saying how
impressed you are with the company and the people you've met. Then
transition into why you'd be a good fit for the position.
End Notes
You should end your job interview on an enthusiastic, but not
aggressive, note.
Reiterate your interest in the job, but try not to sound anxious or
desperate. Instead, express how exciting and challenging you think the
role would be -- and what a good fit you'd be for it.
Finally, ask the interviewer if there's anything else you can do to
show your strengths as a candidate. For example, you can offer to send
samples of your work if appropriate.
The Next Step
Don't leave a job interview without knowing the next step in the hiring
process.
For example, will the company be calling candidates back for another
round of interviews? Are they planning to check references? When do they
anticipate that a hiring decision will be made?
You may also want to ask the recruiter how he would prefer you to
follow up with him. Can you call him on the phone, or would he rather that
you email him?
Not only will this information help reduce post-interview anxiety, it
also shows the interviewer that you're thorough and conscientious.

A personal tip from shoOOonya ....
After the Interview ...
Sit down and try to re-live the interview . . .
Write down the questions adn the answers you gave . . .
Analyse the Answers . . .
Did you do proper justice to the question . . .
Did you answer the question fully . . .
Was the interviewer satisfied . . .
Make a note of all these . . .
Write down . . .
your learnings from the Interview . . .
your observations of the process . . .
your observations of other candidates . . .
AND THEN FORGET THE INTERVIEW and the COMPANY.
Do not keep the Company in your mind and keep thinking about it.
Do not make it the centre of your life for the next couple of days/weeks etc.
Just forget it and go on with life. Other interviews. Career Planning.
When the next Interview with some other company comes,
review your notes and your learnings from all previous interviews adn make it a better one. Each Interview is not only your chance to enter the corporate world but also a learning experience.
And yes . . where ever you go for an interview . . . be friendly with the other candidates . . . network with them . . . try to keep in touch . . . email is a very good way to keep in touch . . .
All the Best ! ! !

Hi Sridhar,
I am really tired of seeing the same articles posted in CiteHR which are being posted at yahoo groups, I find many yahoogroups articles are also posted here, Instead Post some articles which you find in few websites or something of your own. I believe most of them are members of yahoogroups.
All the best for Your New search :P

hi ...
I guess this site is a more permanent reference source than a Yahoo Group. A Yahoo Group is only meant for its users whereas this site is accessible to all.
Yahoo Groups are slowly losing their grounds due to a lot of junk mails they bring in along with useful mail.
Also, all members of CiteHr may not be part of the particular yahoo group that had the article posted.
Thanks Sridhar for sharing the article. Would like to see more.
A small suggestion maybe ... just search some keywords from the article you plan to post to ensure that the article is not already posted. This would prevent duplicationa dn repitition. In case of original articles ... well ... no chance of thqat so you are welcome. ;-)

The fact is I am observing that many are posting the articles already posted in Yahoogroups, Infact few of mine too :P
In the long run, it will run into duplicacy of articles in citehr, and no one wil have patience to check whether that particular article is being posted in citehr.
Let me not compare yahoogroups with citehr, Perception differs!!

Hi Sridhar,
These tips would be of help, not only to the freshers, but also
to the technically sound kings, who pay very less attention to
how they go on in the inview and end it.
Thanks for the tips.

Dear Pramod,
Yes I agree with you that perception differs,
But as "Shoonya" said we should not assume all the members of CiteHR are part of YahooGroups also.
What my perception is it does'nt matter whether the source is from YahooGroups are from any other, all it matters is what is that we are contributing to our friends in Cite HR and how it can be useful to others.
And I feel that most of the peeple in CiteHR agree(assuming) with me.
what I found out is that we (assuming only I and you) are also part of same yahoogroup and we share a common interest.
Best Wishes,
Sridhar
