job interview questions

“What can you do for us that other candidates can’t?”

answer:-

I can not say anything about othters, however I am a jobhardworking and proactive individual, if given a chance mywork would speak for me.

“Why do you want to job?”

Consider the job position and your background before customizing these answers.
Keep in mind that you should try to construct an answer that will explain who you are and why you are there.
Another good idea is to add a few words about the good/positive image of the company.

Here are the answers:

1. Given the sense of importance of this ‘career field’; it has always made me want to be – “your career” and now to be a “this job”, because I can’t think of any other job-career that is so important to society.
2. This position challenges me to keep up with the cutting edge of technologies.
3. I would like to develop my EFG skills to acquire in-depth experience in my profession for the benefit of this organization.
4. This job in such a stable company offers long-term career development and this is what I am looking for.
5. I see this company not only as a positive work environment, but also as a good opportunity to have my skills and qualifications make a difference.
6. I would like to gain experience in this line of work because I feel that it will perfectly suit my ABC skills.
7. I feel I should have direct hands-on knowledge/experience in this position/at this stage of my career.
8. I believe that this job will help me assume another level of responsibility in my career.
9. The job is tailored to my AFG skills and previous experience.
10. I want to be a part of a company on its way up as this company already launched several top products.
11. I believe that this entry-level job may enhance my professional experience.
12. Being part of a research and development team is a job experience I always love to have.
13. The company’s good reputation and its successful strategies and values make everyone want to work for such a company.
14. This challenging job will allow me to utilize my ABC skills.
15. This company is known as a company that rewards employees who deliver good results.

Tell Me About Yourself: Tips To Answer this Tough Interview Question

answer:-

Start with your name: A no-brainer, many job seekers panic right off the bat by incorrectly assuming the interviewer asked a loaded question. In reality, the interviewer just wants to see how well you can sell yourself. Just state your name and feel free to include a line or two about your passions and hobbies – but don’t overdo it. You need to pace yourself and save precious monologue time for significant details regarding your career. Your total answer should be short and complete.

Follow up with your background: You should include a brief history of your education and experience. Think bullet points and hard facts – don’t waste time on inconsequential details. In terms of goals and aspirations, mention where you came from, where you are currently and where you want to be. Don’t be surprised if the interviewer starts taking notes while you talk. This is a good sign and means the interviewer is engaged and actively listening. They may refer to these notes and ask questions regarding your statements after you finish talking, so make sure you are honest and that all of your facts line up.
Relate it to the position: This is where the interviewer will know if you’ve done your homework or not. Your goal is to recount specific projects and achievements that are relevant to the position you’re applying for and mix them in with in your background history. You’ll want to research the company beforehand and focus on key requirements of the job description. You need to imply that you are the solution to their staffing need.
Turn the question on them: Don’t be afraid to ask the interviewer questions. If you say, “I’m originally from Boston,” follow it up with “Have you been there before?” If you state “I worked on a consumer marketing project,” follow it up with “Does your firm tend to focus on B2B or B2C marketing projects?” These examples probably don’t fit you, but the point is that you have to engage with the interviewer, not just rattle off points. It’s a conversation.
Avoid overexposure: Less is more. Get in and get out. The same rules apply to this age old question. If you sit there babbling on and talking your interviewers ear off with your life story you’re ultimately going to leave a bad impression. Smile, keep a positive and excited tone during your abridged, micro-autobiography and let the rest of the interview commence. You’ll have time to ask your own questions at various intervals throughout the process. Good luck!

Magnet Levitation


Magnet Levitation
Make a Magnetic Levitating Train
Introduction: In magnets like poles repel. In other words N poles repel N poles and S poles repel S poles. The abilities of magnets to repel each other has provided the idea of making levitating trains. Levitating trains do not make a loud noise as regular trains do. They can also travel faster due to lower friction between the train and the rails. 
Magnetic trains do not need wheels. They just need a magnetic rail on the ground and a like magnetic rail on the train cars.
Materials 
To construct a model of magnetic levitating train you will need the following materials.
Included in your kit:
  • 2 long hi-force Magnetic Strips (for the rails)
  • 2 short hi-force Magnetic Strips (for the car)
  • 2 plastic Guide Rails
  • Wood Block 5" x 1 1/2" x 3/4" for the car
Additional materials you need:
  • Wood board or heavy cardboard 3" x 28" or larger. This will be the ground for your train.
  • Clear adhesive tape
  • Foam board or construction paper for making a decorative train
  • Wood glue or Elmer glue to connect the foam parts (optional)
  • A ruler stick
  • Pencil
  • This instruction page
Procedure Quick Reference:
  1. Peal the plastic film from the back of 5" long magnet strips and connect them on one side of the 5" x 1 1/2" wood block. This will be the train car. As you see in the picture in the right, the strips are aligned to the edges of the wood block and are 1/2" apart.
  2. Peal the plastic film from the back of 24" long magnetic strips and mount them parallel to each other, exactly 1/2" apart, on a long wooden board or rigid card board.
  3. Mount the clear plastic angles on the sides of the long magnetic strips to form a protective wall so the levitating car will not move off rail. There must be a very small gap between the car and the walls so the car can move freely.
In this method the angle brackets are installed towards outside. In other words the horizontal surface of the brackets are away from the rails. This methods allows you to adjust the position of side rails later. The angle brackets can be secured using masking tape, clear adhesive tape, or small screws.Another method described in the detail procedure below is suggesting the brackets to be mounted towards inside. You choose which method you want to use.

Procedure Details:
  1. Draw 2 parallel lines 24" long and 1/4" apart as the guideline for mounting plastic rails (angle brackets). Number these lines as line 1 and line 2.
  2. draw 2 more parallel lines 1/8" outside the first two lines. These 2 new lines will be used as the guideline for the magnet strips. We name these new lines , line A and line B.
  3. Place one of the angle brackets on the board and align its edge to the line number 1. At this time the flat section of the angle bracket will cover the line A and the wall section of that will stay on the left of line A. Use tape to secure it at this position. 
  4. Place the other plastic angle bracket on the board and align its edge to the line number 2. At this time the flat section of the angle bracket will cover the line B and the wall section of that will stay on the right of line B. Use tape to secure it at that position.
  1. Place your train car between the rails and make sure that it can move freely and the space between the walls and train is as small as possible.
  1. Peal the plastic film from the back of 24" long magnetic strips and mount them on the flat section of angle brackets. One must be aligned to line A and the other must be aligned to line B. In this way two magnetic strips will be exactly 1/2" apart.
  1. Place the rail board on a flat horizontal surface and then place the train car over the rail. It must float and the side brackets must protect it so it does not go off road.

Further adjustments and alignments:
If the magnets are very strong you may need to make your train heavier by adding weights or loads. You may also use the super strong neodymium magnet to modify the strength of your plastic magnet strips. Please be cautious in doing this because imbalance in the strength of magnet strips can potentially disable your train. 
To increase the strength of plastic magnet, place the neodymium magnet on the magnet strip so that it will be attracted, then rub the magnet all over the surface of both rails on the ground.To reduce the strength of magnet, hover the neodymium magnet above the magnet strip so that it will be repelled by the plastic magnet, then move it along the rail. 
To be more precise in this procedure, you must first identify the N and S of your plastic magnets and your neodymium magnet. You may use a compass to identify the poles. The south pole of the compass needle is the one that shows the north and attracts to the N pole of magnets. Also the North pole of a compass needle stays towards the south pole and attracts toward the S pole of magnets. 
To increase the strength of plastic magnet, rub its surface with the opposite pole of the neodymium magnet. To reduce its strength, hover the like pole of the neodymium magnet above its surface. 
Note: Super strong Neodymium magnet is also able to reverse the poles of a plastic magnet. For example if the surface of plastic magnet is N, you can rub that surface with the N pole of neo magnet in order to change it to S.
Decoration:Make a decorative train using Styrofoam or construction paper and mount it over your wooden train base. A decorative structure makes your train more attractive for your science project display. 
You can glue or tape any decorative train car above your wooden train.
If you cut the foam to exact size of your wooden train, you will not need to use tape or glue. The model can sit right on the top of the wooden train and hold it snugly.
Additional upgrades:
The wooden train or the decorative train above that may be equipped with ejecting magnets so they can smoothly eject at the end of the rail. Ejecting magnets are usually rectangle magnets or small disk magnets that may be screwed or taped to both ends of a train.
To make these work, matching magnets must be mounted at the end of each rail in a way that they repel the train magnets.
The magnets at the end of the rail must be fully aligned with the train magnets so they can repel the train when it gets to the end of line.End of line magnets may be mounted on another wood block or a small cardboard or plastic box.
Picture in the right shows an end of line magnet mounted on a wooden block that is hold in place using rubber bands.

how to make maglev trains model

1
Cut a length of track to 2 feet-by 3 inches wide using your balsa wood or cardboard.

2
Build walls of the track from the excess material. If you are using Balsa wood, cut four 1-1/2-inch wide strips to run along the 2-foot length of the track, and glue pairs of strips together. If using cardboard, cut 2-foot-by-3-inch strips and fold them along the middle.

3
Glue the walls of the track onto the track so they are between 2-1/2 and 2-1/4 inches apart along the entire length of the track. The walls should be 90 degrees from the track.

4
Glue 12 of the magnets in a row along the center of the track. Ensure that all of the poles on these magnets are pointing the same directions. If you have the north side of the first magnet pointing upward, be sure that all of the magnets are north side up. Leave the track to dry overnight.

5
Glue two magnets to your block of wood. Verify that the poles pointing upward on the block are the same as the poles pointing upward on your track. If your track is north side up, glue the magnets so the north side faces outward and the south side sticks to the wood block. Leave your block to dry overnight.

6
Place your wooden block, or train, in the track. The magnet should hover over the magnets on the track, guided by the rails on the sides. Push the train gently to send it floating toward the ends of the track

MAGLEV TRAIN

                                                      

SIMPLE MAGLEV TRAIN
(c)1996 W. Beaty



A truely levitated maglev train is a very complex device. Permanent magnets alone cannot suspend a train car. You'd also need coils, amplifiers, and negative feedback too. I'd only recommend the coils/sensors approach if you are a college student or fairly advanced highschooler.

                        wood or cardboard
However, there's a way to make a simple permanent-magnet maglev train. Instead of using coils and electronics, we just put guide rails on the sides of the track. The guide rails will lightly touch your train and keep it centered. Because real science involves striking out into the unknown, I'm not going to give detailed plans here. Just enough info to get you started.

The lifter-rails under your train will be small square ceramic magnets. Radio Shack stores in the US sell a good type, the 1" x 3/4" square with a hole in the center. Each foot of train track will require 32 of these magnets. Less expensive magnets are available from All Electronics, but I haven't tried these (see links at end of article).

First mark one pole on all of your magnets so you later can lay them down with the same pole facing upwards. To do this, stick your magnets all together in one big long stack. Now use a permanent marker to make an "X" on flat face of one end of the stack. Pull the marked magnet off the stack, make an "X" on the next one, etc., until you're out of magnets. Mark every single one on the same side.

Before building an entire huge track, make a "test bed" about one foot long. For a base, you can use cardboard or wood. Don't use iron or steel of course. You'll be lining up your magnets side by side in long rows. One way to do this is to stick them to a strip of duct tape, then lay the strip down on the cardboard or wood and rub the tape down to hold the magnets underneath. Position each magnet carefully on the tape so the row is very straight. Make two parallel rows of magnets with about 5cm of space between the rows. Make sure the rows are perfectly parallel. It might help to measure with a ruler and draw lines on the base first.

For a temporary "car", cut out a square of cardboard 9cm by 15cm . Tape four magnets to the corners, flipping the magnets correctly so they will repel from the tracks when the cardboard is layed down. Position the magnets on the cardboard so they will be exactly over the magnets on the track.

If you place your cardboard "car" on your magnet track, you'll find that it will twist or flip over and fall, and will not hover. But if you gently hold it by its sides, you can keep it floating in position. Does this give you ideas? What if you place one long board on each side of your track? The "car" will touch the two boards and will stop slipping sideways, but the boards will not stop the car from slipping down the track.

Once you get this part working, you can build a much longer track. You can build a real car too, one that looks like a train, although you'll have to find very lightweight construction materials. You can try thinking up ways to reduce the friction with the side rails. Maybe try aluminum angle strips instead of wood, or sand the wood smooth and paint it with something hard and shiny.
