In the Search of Diamond

  • There was a farmer, who was living happily in Africa.

    One day a wise man came to him and told him about the glory of diamonds and
    the power that goes along with them.

    The wise man said, "If you had a diamond the size of your thumb, you could have your own city. If you had a diamond the size of your fist, you could probably own your own country."
    And then he went away.

    That night the farmer couldn't sleep. He was unhappy.

    The next morning he made arrangements to sell off his farm, took care of his family and 
    went in search of diamonds.

    He looked all over Africa and couldn't find any diamonds.

    He looked all through Europe and couldn't find any diamonds.

    When he got to Spain, he was emotionally, physically and financially broke.

    He got so disheartened that he threw himself into the Barcelona River and committed suicide.

    Back home, the person who had bought his farm was watering the camels at a stream that ran through the farm. Across the stream, the rays of the morning sun hit a stone and made it sparkle like a rainbow.
    He picked up the stone and put it in the living room.

    That afternoon, the wise man came and saw the stone sparkling.

    He asked about farmer.

    The new owner said, "No, why do you ask?"

    The wise man said, "Because that is a diamond. I recognize one when I see one."

    The man said, no, that's just a stone I picked up from the stream. Come, I'll show you. There are many more."

    They went and picked some samples and sent them for analysis. Sure enough, the stones were diamonds.

    They found that the farm was indeed covered with acres and acres of diamonds.

    Moral of the Story:

    When our attitude is right, we realize that we are all walking on acres and acres of diamonds.

    Opportunity is always under our feet. We don't have to go anywhere. 
    All we need to do is recognize it.

    When people don't know how to recognize opportunity, they complain of noise when it knocks.

    The same opportunity never knocks twice. The next one may be better or worse, but it is never the same one.

    Interview Questions


  • Below are the Very Impressive Interview Questions, which were asked in HR Round:

    Question 1:
    You are driving along in your car on a wild, stormy night, it’s raining heavily, when suddenly you pass by a bus stop, and you see three people waiting for a bus:
    1. An old lady who looks as if she is about to die.
    2. An old friend who once saved your life.
    3. The perfect partner you have been dreaming about.

    Which one would you choose to offer a ride to, knowing very well that there could only be one passenger in your car?

    This is a moral/ethical dilemma that was once actually used as part of a job application.

    ~You could pick up the old lady, because she is going to die, and 
    thus you should save her first, or

    ~You could take the old friend because he once saved your life, and 
    this would be the perfect chance to pay him back.

    ~However, you may never be able to find your perfect mate again.

    The candidate who was hired (out of 200 applicants) had no trouble coming up with his answer. 
    Guess what was his answer?

    * He simply answered:
    "I would give the car keys to my Old friend and let him take the lady to the hospital. 
    I would stay behind and wait for the bus with the partner of my dreams."

    Question 2:
    What will you do if I run away with your sister?"

    *The candidate who was selected answered " I will not get a better match for my sister than you sir"

    Question 3:
    Interviewer (to a student girl candidate) – What is one morning you woke up and 
    found that you were pregnant?
    *Girl – I will be very excited and take an off, to celebrate with my husband.

    Normally, an unmarried girl will be shocked to hear this, but she managed it well. 
    Why I should think it in the wrong way, she said later when asked.

    Question 4:
    Interviewer: He ordered a cup of coffee for the candidate. 
    Coffee arrived kept before the candidate, then he asked what is before you?

    *Candidate: Instantly replied "Tea".

    He got selected.

    You know how and why did he say "TEA" when he knows very well that coffee was kept before.

    (Answer: The question was "What is before you (U – alphabet) Reply was "TEA" ( T – alphabet)

    Alphabet "T" was before Alphabet "U"

    Question 5:
    Where Lord Rama would have celebrated his "First Diwali"?

    People will start thinking of Ayodya, Mitila [Janaki's place], Lanka etc…

    But the logic is, Diwali was a celebrated as a mark of Lord Krishna.
    Killing Narakasura. In Dasavataar, Krishnavathaar comes after Raamavathaar.
    *So, Lord Rama would not have celebrated the Diwali At all! 

    Question 6:
    The interviewer asked to the candidate "This is your last question of the interview. 
    Please tell me the exact position of the center of this table where u have kept your files."

    *Candidate confidently put one of his finger at some point at the table and 
    told that this was the central point at the table.

    Interviewer asked how did u get to know that this being the central point
    of this table, then he answers quickly that

    "Sir, You are not likely to ask any more question, as it was the last question
    that u promised to ask"

    And hence, he was selected as because of his quick-wittedness.
