Tips: 

  • Have patience, don’t give up.
  • Be 100% honest. It will reflect confidence too.
  • You have to assume that interviewer knows nothing about the ans and the different terms you will use in ans, so you have to explain everything from a to z (i.e. each and every term). 
  • Also, make sure you use pen and paper to make the interviewer visualize stuff.
  • Always keep a smile on your face. 
  • Be natural, be energetic and be excited. This should be reflected in your answers and the way you will talk.
