Yesterday I did an interview with the vice-president of an Indian IT conglomerate.
It was the best interview I have done in a long, long time, for two reasons.
- The man, though has much seniority in terms of work experience, has a child-like quality about him. He’s big on ideas and innovation, something that is synonymous with the IT industry. However, to actually imbibe these qualities in one’s personality, as a way of life is something else. Very inspiring.
- Secondly, he was manically punctual, super tech-savvy and came across as humble, a quality that is rare. I figured he needed a few minutes to formulate his thoughts, at the end of which he typed them out on his PDA, mailed his notes to my PC, I took a print-out, and voila, with a white sheet of paper to guide him, his answers were crisp, insightful and full of wonderful ideas.
Nice to run into your blog. I’m a journo too… and from Goa. May I invite you to join http://groups.google.com/group/goajourno
