I enter the room ..with some files in my hand ..I was asked couple questions ..I answered well ..they had a puzzled look on thier face ..I begin to panick wondering if I'll be selected or not suddenly i hear alarm ringing ..I sit there with fear ...and then finally I flutter open my eyes ..gosh it was a bad dream ..its 4 am ..I lay in my bed for sometime ..with my eyes open wondering how the interview would go ...I wake up make my fav chocolate coffee and sit there with couple of papers in front of me ..its foggy outside my apt glass..its 7 am I make a toast for myself ..the maid knocks the door she comes in with a big smile on her face ..shamla I trust her the most she's a nice person and a professional cleaner . I pick up a formal outfit ..I wear a formal pant, white shirt I look at myself in mirror and try to imagine how I would look while I greet the interwier..hello .nono a little smile and then hello ..I feel cringe and pick my file up and hands over keys to shamla and walk ..
As I am sitting in my car wondering what would the interwier look like ..umm let me guess ..a rich hot guy ..In formals ...umm wonder what would i do to him ..I smirk ..and realise I'm still stuck in a traffic . I see a huge building not so huge as i expected it to be it actually looked like a normal office umm okay its not as good looking as the office I worked in but lets see..I enter the main door and there this security check happening ..my files r checked my bag is checked n even my pockets! I mean come on its not like there's some crown or kohinoor diamond ...Im there comes a woman with a file she asks me if I am here for the interview I say yes ..then she takes me into the waiting room..I can feel my heart beat ..its super fast..like super fast ..its getting louder I feel like people in the room can hear my heart beat ..I look at other ladies sitting there and I am intimidated..they are look like Victoria's secret models ..I mean I don't know what's thier secret agenda tho.. a man comes out and calls my name ..SIARA BROWNS ! and thats it its my moment now ! I have to do well ! I got up and he looks at me like I'm sort of some joker ..good luck with THAT outfit ..he says ..thank you watch me rock with THIS outfit I say and walk away feeling all awkward what did I just do ! That was so kiddish ! I feel my stomach twisted . I enter the room and what do I see ? 10 people !? I felt like I entered the wrong room interrupting a conference? They ask me to be seated..I sit and I'm frozen . A young lady stands up and explain me how the interview was going to be .to my shock there was 10 rounds ..including presentation ..viva ..checking of the security wall ..work test .and what not . I wasn't prepared for this ! I answer the questions well. I come out of that room ..and sit in an waiting area ..I'm so tired and pissed ..like that was long ..and now I am asked to wait here ? What sort of office do this ! ..after a while the lady comes out and smiles at me ..I walk up to her and ask her ..umm..hi ? ..you look pretty ..( I didn't know how to start a conversion) she casually tells ..I know you want to know how you did ..its not in my hands ..to pass you need to score 10 by all the 10 interwiers ..all the best . I just stand there and the whole interview is replaying in my mind ..all I see is me being shy at some point me being loud at some point ..I dont even know what I just did...and one od the interwier hated me I could tell that with his annoying intruption and expression ..how am I going to get thru ? I go home all tired shamla offers me some water ..I sigh at my unknown fate ..tomorrow is the final round the security test ! I change and put on some Netflix and eventually falls asleep ..again it's 4 am I wake up ...I make a coffee and sit jn front of my laptop and the table and looks at the foggy city..its cold than usual ..maybe it's because I am a little nervous ..I want them to like me ..so I decided I am going to finally dress up stylish ..its 7 am as usual shamla comes I get dressed up I wear a short formal skirt with a deep neck shirt ..and a pearl necklace..I look more like a sort of hooker than a tech ...I gather all my files and pendrive ...I am in a waiting area ..there are only three people for final round ..and this job means a lot to me ..the man comes out calls my name out loud ...this time he seem to be more serious..he didn't even look at my "outfit" I confidently walk in and ug my pen drive ..the screen shows the powerful security wall which is designed by me and the room contains number of hackers trying to pass thru the security wall ..all are trying to attack the wall at once ..I am very confident that no one can pass thru it ..but suddenly I hear a beep ..and a red line what's this suppose to mean ?! I am confused ..the security wall is broken !? How could that be possible!? The interwier tells me ..Im sorry ..better luck next time ..what's this suppose to mean !?..I try typing every possible key on my laptop just to make sure it wasn't real ..and to my shock ..it was ..I walk outside the room ..and the lady walks up to me and says ..seem like you were a little too over confident ..THATS IT ! that's the least thing I wanted to hear at the moment ! I clench my fist and try not to cry ...I fuming ..maybe it was a overconfidence ..I sit in car and go home ..shamla offers me water ..and asks me how was it ? I tell her ..it was good ..but not good enough to get me thru it ..one even said I was overconfident ..shamla innocently smiles and tells me why dont you show them what you are ! Do better and rock ! I smile at her innocence and tell her sure ..I couldn't speak much at that time ..I was angry felt like there is a huge lump of disappointment and pain in my throat ..I change and sit there not knowing what to do ..
That night I coudnt sleep ..the interwier questions , the man's comment on the dress and that ladys words were echoing in my head ..I sat up suddenly I looked at my laptop ..I decided to work on the project again ...I sat up whole night trying to make different sketches..I finally figured out a way..but it was too late I had to sleep ...it was morning 7 am shamla was a little late this time ..I wake up in my pajamas and open the door ..I have some coffee and fresh up and sit and redo the entire security door . I'm done now ..but the problem is how will I show it to them ? The interview was over ..what if someone else got selected ? Never mind I had to just prove them wrong about me .I write a email to the boss of the company ...
(In company)
Boss ! This was a really tough interview to do ..we found no good candidate there was one extremely good but coudnt get thru ..maybe we can- says a man No ! We will wait for some days there will be some more new applications ..hunt them ..you know this is a important and I can not risk it . Says the boss and opens her laptop . Reads the email and closes it ..what's it boss ? Asks the man ..oh nothing ..some email by some oversmart candidate ..anyways im late I need to get I into this meeting ..(after meeting ) umm stephanor? Whose siara browns ? Asks the boss ..boss it's the candidate I was talking about she was smart enough but coudnt get thru ..she seem a little off for me (whispers) not that hot- ..shut up steph says boss and goes inside the cabinet ..interesting..lets see ..
