Gitu's interview ...

Gitu worked in a great company for few years and worked on establishing standards. When it became almost impossible to challenge those self standing standards and get something meaningful out of them, The work was called off. Interestingly at same juncture Gitu too decided that it was time for him to call it off!! Pretty intelligent of him.


Gitu sent his resume to anyone and everyone and became a celebrity. Eventually  Gitu contacted DS and inquired if there was anything Gitu could help by letting DS know that he was available for hiring.

DS, forwarded Gitu's resume to one of the guys who came back appreciating that Gitu has been a celebrity and everyone in the interview panel already has a picture with him so it may not be worth wasting celebrities time again. DS requested to consider it once again which that nice guy somehow obliged. DS offered one mock interview to Gitu which great man agreed. DS called one experienced friend of his to help out as DS himself couldn't do that.

Gitu was amazingly good in interview. DS sat in the panel to check the progress. After the interview, DS asked that how Gitu felt about it ? ... Gitu was beaming with energy and was pretty confident. Interviewer also was pretty positive about closing the rounds there itself!! ....

When Gitu was told that he needs to prepare more and work hard ... Gitu smiled.

What? Don't they see that where I come from ? ... अरे कॉलेज का नाम ही काफी है |

DS, tried to explain that, Yes name is enough but unfortunately many people don't know about it!!

Gitu, then said that many people are impressed with him .. and then he quoted an example of previous interview where the algorithm Gitu explained was so complex that person could never understand it!

And then Gitu told, then he asked about SONET and then मैंने तो उसे पका दिया | अरे हम तो किंग हैं उधर |

DS, asked what did he ask ? .... Gitu ... He asked many a things and then he asked about a particular byte and then meanings of bits. Gitu was so comfortable with each bit in any byte that he even claimed that a few of the bytes in the standard were like his खानदानी property. Moreover, development on all of them stopped after his father had the operation !!

Makes sense ... ? .. Of course it does. Thought DS. After all Gitu hails from  constituency where Sanjay Gandhi was a reckoning force in his father's days!!
