Dr. Dev (Fictional Name) was to appear for an interview for the post of a junior faculty member at a private medical college. Dr. Dev had not met or seen the main director of that private medical college. Just before leaving for the interview, Dr. Dev opened the website of the private hospital of the main director. Searching in the gallery he was able to see the photograph of the main director.
When he went for the interview the interviewers were sitting in two rows. When the interview began, Dr. Dev noticed that the technical questions related to the field of surgery were only being asked by the interviewers sitting in the front row.
While answering the questions, Dr. Dev quickly looked around and noticed a man sitting quietly nondescriptly in the second row in a corner. Dr. Dev recognized him from the photographs seen at his private hospital’s website as the private medical college’s main director. Since he was specialist in Gynaecology, he was probably not asking any question regarding the field of surgery.
Dr. Dev made deliberate eye-contact with him and addressed the general question such as regarding his work ethics, how did he propose to add to the medical college’s growth, etc. while maintaining eye contact and turning his body and addressing in the general direction of the main director.
Either by this, or the general command of his subject or the fact that he did his MBBS and MS from AIIMS, New Delhi, or a combination of all of these, Dr. Dev topped the interview.
Sometime the main deciding person may not be apparent in a meeting or interview. Therefore do your homework well and identify the key player/s beforehand.
Involve the key players while answering questions or presenting your ideas even if not asked by them directly for a better impact.
