Confidence:

• In a personal interview or a personal interaction, the interviewers are seeking to know you as a person.

• A person may be hard worker or a smart worker, but the catch is to portray yourself with sheer confidence.
• This quality of being confident goes a long way.
• You have to work on your personality traits which help you in more effective communication because communication is the essence of management.

Comfort:

• Personal Interaction is essential because the interviewers would want to know you as a person. This will help them evaluate your potential.
• When a candidate seems comfortable with a new person and can interact just as comfortably, it highlights his or her abilities to hold powerful conversations and speaking skills.

• Comfort during personal interaction has a lot to do with highlighting life events to vouch for your qualities, to smile and use hand gestures, to not be too stiff and so on.

Subtlety:

• For your SNAP interview, interviewers will always appreciate subtle cues and mild remarks instead of being too over the top.

• Your powerful qualities can be debating or social work, you just have to find the traits that overpower you as person and not the qualities that overpower others.
• These qualities or traits are what you should try to put across during the interview instead of being something you are not.

Purpose:

• Always know why you are opting for PGDM or MBA instead of doing a job or starting a business.
• You must have clarity with respect to the reasons why you are going for a post graduate degree, not just for the sake of the interview but also to have a sense of purpose.
• You must be clear if the investment of time, effort and money is at least proportionate to the returns you are expecting.
• Having good clarity on this topic will help you get through the SNAP interview.

Honesty:

• In order to do so, you have to ensure that your answers do not look very staged or rehearsed.
• In case your answers seem like they are too scripted, the interviewer gets the idea of the answers being unauthentic and dishonest.
• Each answer should be powerful and must depict a part of your personality.
