Hi Pradeep,

Good Work. This helps a lot of freshers applying for BPO.

Few more suggestions would be, regading the non-verbal communication & Gestures.

1.The way ppl walk into the cabin should be straight, erect . Never feel nervous.

2.Once you meet the person give a smile to him [ just smile not a big laugh ] & firm hand shake, dont be nervous here again.

3.When you speak to the Interviewer always maintain an eye-contact, when you are speaking to the person look & the person & bend yourself a bit forward. This shows that you are interested to waht the other person is speaking to.

4.Never look here & there when you are listening to or answeing to the person.

If you need few more points, you can feel free to contact me on sreeramg@kaizentek.com.

Regards,
Sreeram
