Tips for answering Behavioral Interview Questions

"There may not easy answers in interview, but there are always simple answers"
✡ Gather enough information from your experience to narrate the story with perfect examples that can demonstrate your knowledge and skills.

✡ Prepare at least two example to back up answers in the behavioral interview. Vary the tone according to the examples that you choose and speak enthusiastically.

✡ If the employer ask more details based on your answers, you should keep giving them more examples to emphasize your skills and experience.

✡ You should allow the interviewer to initiate the questions and you have to listen carefully. If you do not understand a question, take pause and ask for the repetition.

✡ Before answering, take yourself little time to think about each question. It will help you to generate the best response to the question as well as the information the hiring manager need.

✡ Your answers should focus on your achievements and How did you reach those achievements. The best answers always emphasize of your past experiences and skills for the position you aimed to work.

✡ You have to stick to the facts and carefully outline in detail the actions you took. Remember that your answers are going to differentiate yourself from others.

✡ while you have to answer tactically for the questions about previous employers or colleagues. Don't blame anybody.

✡ Your should choose the examples to show what challenge you faced, how you responded, and the outcome you achieved.

✡ Even you don't have the experience in a particular area, you should not tell that directly. Instead, you tell what you can offer to the employer. This will show your positive attitude as well as your interest in that job.

very terrible, the accident that that just occurred. it happens about 10:38am I was so speechless how it happened.

Creativity allows us to invent, innovate and inspire. It’s a quality that every person inherently possesses and yet many of us find it difficult to consistently access our creative mind.

Checking emails, attending meetings, reviewing invoices - these are just a few of the tasks that stifle our creativity. But just as doing monotonous work can limit our creativity, there are things that each person can do to increase creativity.

Stress is the enemy of creativity - to be creative you must try to mitigate the stress in your life in order to be able to focus your energy and keep your mind open enough to embrace your creativity. Instead of worrying about your schedule, or monotonous tasks, you’ll have the energy to focus on creating an amazing experience for event attendees .

I’ve identified the 8 best things event organizers (or anyone else) can do to be more creative at work and in life.


1. Wake up earlier

Becoming an early riser can boost your productivity and creativity. First and foremost, waking up early provides you with the space to focus on how you feel and what you want to accomplish for the day. Many successful people such as Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey, billionaire Richard Branson and Apple CEO Tim Cook make it a habit to wake up early. The extra time that you create by getting up early provides you the ability to do things like write in a journal, meditate or workout - all things that help set the rest of your day up for success.


2. Create a consistent morning routine.

Having a consistent morning routine can also help you channel your creativity. Once you have adjusted to your routine, you won’t need to think about it-- which frees up space in your head to get creative.
Research shows that most people are especially averse to the unknown in the morning. That’s one reason why we find commuting to work so stressful - because we aren’t in control of variables like traffic, or train delays. So if you can inject a consistent morning routine into your schedule, you will feel more balanced and less stressed.


3. Become an “event-time” person

Event-time people schedule their day by activities unlike their counterpart, clock-time people who schedule their day by hours and minutes. Event-time people schedule a meeting as an activity starting at 9:00, while clock-time people schedule a meeting as something happening between 9:00-9:45.
According to ABUTECH TECHNOLOGY GROUP, event-time people tend to feel less stressed and more creative because they feel a sense of control over their day, as opposed to clock-time people, who feel beholden to...the clock.


4. Be open to new ideas

You may be tempted to dismiss ideas from co-workers as impractical or foolish, but hear them out. Start thinking of new ideas as rough drafts. Encourage everyone to contribute at least one new idea at every meeting and talk through them as a team. You’ll be surprised at how much an idea that you initially wanted to discredit can evolve during one discussion.

ABUTECH TECHNOLOGY GROUP was holding a brainstorming session in 2006, when then college student, Jack Dorsey, suggested using an SMS system to communicate with a small network of people. From this brainstorming session, Twitter was born and the company was founded a few months later.
The next time a colleague has a novel event planning idea, try to add to it or refine it rather than searching for reasons why it wouldn’t work. In order to create a truly innovative event, you’ll need to start with ideas that are new and bold.


5. Escape your comfort zone

While it’s important to feel comfortable at work - both physically and emotionally, being comfortable for too long isn’t a good thing when it comes to creative thinking.
Getting out of your comfort zone can be as simple as giving mundane office tasks a makeover.

Steven Kotler, author, journalist and Director of Research for the Flow Genome Project, recommends writing bizarre emails.
“Instead of writing a first sentence of the ‘Last month, we hit our quarterly numbers’ variety, start with something peculiar: ‘Last month, employees found a baby elephant in the lunchroom.”
This exercise will help your brain make unusual connections, which can help creative ideas surface.


6. Take a walk when you get stuck

Walking has been shown to help people
get healthier at work , but it can also help you be more creative. A study published in The Journal of Experimental Psychology found that walking for a short period of time boosts creativity.

You don’t have to walk 5 miles around a track to see a boost in your creative abilities.

Participants who walked indoors were just as creative as those who walked outside. That means that taking a walk when you’ve hit a creative block is an effective and practical way to find inspiration.
To spark team creativity, consider holding walking meetings, that way you and your team can get some exercise while also getting the creative juices flowing.


7. Take some time off from work

It is important to psychologically distance yourself from work from time to time. Thinking about things distant from work can enhance creativity. According to a study by Scientific American, people who are open to different experiences tend to be more creative than those who are not.
This doesn’t mean you have to book a backpacking trip to Patagonia in order to be more creative (unless you want to)! Though it does mean that you should put yourself in new situations and try new things.
Before founding Apple, Steve Jobs put himself in new situations that he credits for helping him to think creatively. He’s quoted as saying: "If you're gonna make connections which are innovative ... you have to not have the same bag of experiences as everyone else does," he said, "or else you're going to make the same connections, and then you won't be innovative."

Remember, creativity fills the space that stress occupies in day-to-day life. In order to be a more creative event planner, you must reduce your stress level by waking up earlier, forming a consistent morning routine and becoming an “event-time” person.
Then you can focus on being more open to new ideas, escaping your comfort zone and finding time to put yourself in new situations that encourage you to think differently.

To be a truly creative event professional, you must provide the proper tools for you and your team to innovate...

A Nigerian teenager who attacked and raped an 11 year old schoolgirl in November 2012 has been found guilty of rape and facing life imprisonment in the UK.

18 year old Opemipo Jaji was under a supervision order for having child porn and had just left an appointment with the Probation Service when he followed the victim as she took a bus home from school, according to the UK Daily Mail. Opemipo took the girl to Jubilee Park in Enfield where he repeatedly raped her for three hours.
The court heard today that the Nigerian Paedophile stuffed a school tieand gloves into her mouth to stop her screaming. But Opemibo denied being the attacker, telling police he had seen the girl on the bus but nothing had happened. "I am just not capable of doing something as despicable and heartless as this," he told the court. Well, nobody believed him.
Not only was the victim's blood found on his clothes, CCTV footage alsocaptured him in the same bus with the girl, plus he fitted the girl's description of her attacker and he admitted he was at the park that evening but only to compose music. He was found guilty and will be sentenced in two weeks time.

The marriage between a newly married couplewho reside at the Junior Staff Quarters, Asaba, Delta State, has hit the rocks as Edwin (surname withheld), the husband, has reportedly impregnated his wife’s friendjust three months after getting married.
Edwin’s wife and Nneka, her friend were said to have been course-mates at the Obafemi Awolowo University, Ile Ife, when Edwin did his National Youth Service in the state.
Nneka reportedly endeared herself to her friend’s husband by cooking for him and helping with house chores as the wife was alreadypregnant.
The victim, who did not want to be named, narrated the story saying, “I never knew there was something fishy as I was not suspecting my best friend. But there was a day she told meshe was going to check herparents in Ibadan. A day after she left, my husband told me he was billed for an official assignment in Lagos, and would not be back in four days time. My husband returned to Asaba about the same time Nneka came back from her Ibadan trip.
“Two months later, a lady in our estate called me and asked if I observed that Nneka was pregnant. I called her one day to ask her. Sheopened up, telling me she had actually wantedto tell me but do not know how to approach the matter.
“It was then she opened up, telling me that it was the time she traveled to Ibadan, my husband came to meet her and they both slept together for four days.”
The victim is currently out of her matrimonial home until the issue is resolved.
We wonder how this matter will be settled between these friends.

*Speaks on plan to build $8bn refinery
BY JIDE AJANI
He could pass for just any other guest. But he is unmistakably familiar. Charming but humble! Stupendously wealthy, yet radiates simplicity. Strolling in, unassuming, was Africa’s richest man. It was his birthday. Dressed in a black suite with a black shinny cock shoe to match, Aliko Mohammed Dangote kept his appointment for 9am.
Unlike the rambunctious entry of Nigeria’s men of means and power, Dangote walked in with just a few of his executives. After the informal handshake and introduction, he grabbed the microphone to make some opening remarks which turned out not to be mere remarks. He made earth-shaking revelations about hisperson, the conglomerate he runs (Dangote Group), the Nigerian economy and how things can get better in a very competitive environment of clashing political and socio-economic interests.
At first, the tempo was cool – the usual compliments of not having time to rub minds, examine developments in the country with a view to proffering solutions – and the usual pleasantries, until Dangote explained that the real danger confronting the Nigerian state is the infrastructure deficit in a country where the population growth has choked existing facilities. He made it clear that the problems confronting Nigeria today did not just start – they are a cummulation of many years of misgovernance and lack of vision. Shall we blame President Goodluck Jonathan? No!
On the Economic Management Team of President Jonathan, Dangote explained that the team is working hard to ensure that good policy frameworks are put in place with a view to building amore prosperous nation. The EMT is as bothered as President Jonathan to bequeath a better economy to Nigerians.
But, at the point when Dangote said the danger posed by infrastructure deficit is far graver than the Boko Haram threat, all heads turned in his direction.
Mind you, his audience was a group of select senior journalists in Nigeria.
“Why should we in Nigeria, blessed with many mineral resources, be where we are”, he asked? “The mineral resourceswe have can replace and be better than the crude oil. “Some askwhere the minerals are but they are there.
“Even in the Economic Management Team, EMT, we ask and look for ways to make it possible to clear goods from the ports within 48 hours.
“But I say it would not be possible and the cost adds to everything. “To clear a container in Lagos it would take about$1000 but in Brazil where they are not even efficient, it costs less than $100 to clear the same container.
“The issue which people seem to forget is that the last port we built in Nigeria, the Tin Can Island Port, was built in 1978 – look at the population of Nigeria at that time, the size of the economy,crude oil was being sold for about $9 and compare with the expansion of the economy and the population and people think weshould still manage with the same facility?
“God forbid, some people were expressing fears about Third Mainland Bridge; God forbid I say, should something happen to that bridge, how would people move around in Lagos? Look at how difficult it is for people to move around now and it is being said that by 2020 Nigeria’s population would be about 200 million”.
Our Investments, Our Vision
“Before we were making money from our other businesses like sugar, salt, flour and putting the money in cement but by 2010 we were able to pay all the banks.
“I don’t have any issue with government raising money, that is, loan, so long as it is spent well. Beyond the issue of Boko Haram and insecurity, the greatest threat that confronts us is thethreat of decaying and decayed infrastructure. And this is not just in Nigeria but in all of Africa, the greatest threat is infrastructure”.
Decayed Infrastructure, The Greatest Threat
“Somebody was asked how he would operate in government and the person said he would face only two things – infrastructure and education. And he was asked what about the rest. He said with infrastructure, other things would follow. “This is what I think confronts us as the greatest danger even beyond Boko Haram”.
His audience laughs but he charges back with bluntness: “No! It is true.
“The biggest problem of anybody is when you taste money; youwere once rich and then you become poor. It is very bad. Nothing can be worse than that.
“It is when that money goes that you’ll see the true colour of everybody – your wife, your children (a round of raucous laughter)
Alternative To Crude Oil
“If today oil prices collapse, do we have alternatives?
“I tell people that we do. Some of us may be manufacturing in our own little way, but in a very big country like Nigeria with its population, that is simply not enough.
“We are heavily into cement – meanwhile limestone is the cheapest of all the mineral resources we have. There are other minerals that are even more lucrative and more profitable that government is looking to exploring.
“The problem is that even when you begin to explore, how do you move the goods around.
“We’ve also been talking about new ports but there are challenges”.
Scavengers On The Loose
“Look, let me tell you what we have in Nigeria: We have scavengers who hold licenses but wait and do nothing. People just grab opportunities and wait to see what happens rather thanoperate with the licenses “Government has issued 19 licenses for refineries and everybody is holding the licenses and claim that they are waiting for foreign investors. Mind you, the foreigninvestors are not fools”.
The Role of Foreign Investors
“Foreign investors did not build South Korea – South Koreans developed their country; the Germans built their economy, an economy that was once in ruins. The Germans suffered a lot but now they are the best.

As 2013 WAEC May/June and 2013 NECO June/July are approaching, edoloaded team have decided to expose students to information that will make them have better grades in their exam.

Enter this website to see the picture's on how to Titrate
www.


We want to share a Titration Guide we culled to help 2013 WAEC May/June candidates learn about how to prepare a simple titration.



What is Titration?

A titration is a technique used in chemistry to help determine the concentration of a reactant mixed in with an unknown. When done correctly and carefully, a titration will yield very precise results. Here are how to perform one.



Steps/ Guides


1: Obtain the items listed in the “Things You’ll Need” section below.

2: Rinse and purge your burette.

3: Clean and rinse all glassware with tap water (DI H2O if available is better), using some detergent if necessary. Be very careful with burets, as they are very fragile. Always hold them with two hands.

4: Rinse all glassware with distilled water to lower the chances of contamination.

5: Measure out a precise amount of analyte (the reactant mixed in with the unknown).

6: Fill your beaker or Erlenmeyer flask with a small amount of distilled water.

7: Rinse the analyte into your beaker or Erlenmeyer flask, thus making sure all of the analyte is in the beaker.

8: Put a small amount (4-5 drops) of the appropriate color indicatorinto the beaker.

9: Agitate the beaker’s contents by swirling the beaker.

10: Fill the burette with an excess amount of titrant (chemical that reacts with the analyte). The titrant should be in an aqueous form.

11:Clamp the burette carefully to a burette stand. The tip of the burette should not be touching any surfaces.

12 : Place the beaker under the burette.

13: Record the initial volume of the burette at the meniscus (the lowest part of the dip in the liquid).

14: Turn the stopcock of the burette (valve near the tip) vertical, so that titrant is added to the beaker. Only let a small amount of the titrant out. A color change should occur. Agitate the beaker until the color disappears.

15: Repeat the above step until the color persists slightly (you may barely notice it, so be careful & go extremely slowly).

16 : Record the volume of the burette.

17: Add titrant drop by drop as you near the endpoint.

18 :Agitate the beaker’s contents after every drop.

19: Stop when you’ve reached endpoint, which is the point whenthe reactant within the analyte has been completely neutralized. You can tell you’ve reached the endpoint with a colour change, depending on which indicator you chosen to use.

20: Record your final volume.

21: Past endpoint – point of no return. Add drops of titrant until you pass endpoint. At this point, the beaker’s contents should be entirely the color of the color indicator when titrant is added.

22: Clean up by wiping away all standing water.

23: Dispose of the chemicals used in a labeled waste container.

24: Calculate the concentration of the reactant within the analyte using the data gathered.



Important Tips

Have your eyes at the same level while reading the volume from the burette,if your eyes are at a different level each time your readings will not be as accurate.



Record the volume of the burette to one digit past what is given (ex:burette has readings to the nearest tenth;

take your observation down to the nearest hundredth).



Calculations of the concentration should be done to the appropriate number of sig figs.



Tips for better accuracy:

put a small beaker over the top of the burette, especially if you are titrating with NaOH; if it is left in contact with the air some of the OH will bond w/ water molecules and it will

disturb the molarity of the NaOH solution.



End point is extremely easy to overshoot, if you’re not careful and observant. When you have the slightest feeling you are approaching endpoint, start counting drops, and go extremely slowly.

keep a watchglass over the flasks of water & the unknown; the timethey are left sitting out while you are doing your other titrations can change the molarity.

Handle the burette with care because they are easily broken.



Remember to take out the filter funnel after you have done filling the burette with the titrant as it can prevent your titration from being perfectly accurate.



Precaution

1. Be sure to rinse all of the analyte into the beaker. Any left in the weighing boat/ container will result in miscalculations.Dont rinse any of the chemicals down the sink; put into an appropriate, labeledwaste container.

AWKA- NO fewer than seven persons were feared dead and 52 houses burnt when the people of Enugu-Otu Aguleri in Anambra EastLocal Government Area of Anambra State and Ashonwo/Odeke inIbaji Local Government Council of Kogi State engaged in a bloody clash over disputed land on their oil –rich borders.
Kogi people have been laying claims to the oil wellsin Aguleri –Otu inAnambra State shortly after PresidentGoodluck Jonathan commissioned the Orient Ptetroleum Refinery in Anambra State last year.
A community leader in Enugu-Otu Aguleri, Chief Anekwe Arinze told reporters Monday that the people of Ashonwo/Odeke allegedly invaded their community at about 1:30am when they had all gone to bed.
He said: “We were sleeping when suddenly we started hearing gunshots everywhere and when some of us came out to know what was happening,we saw our houses on fire.
“Our children and women who tried to escape were shot and many were wounded. We heard them saying the land belongs to them and that we cannot take it. That was when we knew it was Kogi people.
“Some of our men who summoned the courage to pursue them could not get them because when they noticed our prompt response, they ran away. Already we have counted seven corpses. They also kidnapped three men.
“But we cannot fold our hands while they kill our people. They must release them to us hale and hearty.”
However, the Transition Committee Chairman of Anambra East Council area, Comrade Chinedu Obidigwewho could not confirm the number of casualties lamented the level of destruction in the community by the people suspected to be from Kogi State, saying that it was unfortunate that they took laws into their hands by not going to court to prove their case.
Obidigwe further urged both communities to exercise restraints and avoid taking the laws into their hands

Internet is something that you cannot imagine your life without. Right from searching for a good restaurant to searching for a good plumber, is made via internet. What I mean to say is, when internet has become such an essential part of life, then it has to be made easier for a commoner to use and it has been made easier too. Here are the hidden tricks, which can make the internet simpler for you.



Need no ‘http://’ or ‘www.’ in the address:
To reach an address of a website, it is no more needed that you have to type ‘http://’ or ‘www.’, which used to take few seconds more of your time. For example—To visit the webpage of Yahoo, youcan type yahoo.cominstead of typing www.yahoo.com.
It has been made yet easier in case of .com addresses, as you can type ‘yahoo’ followed by pressing ‘Ctrl+Enter’ to get to the website.
Switch between the fields easily:
Generally this feature is helpful, when you’re filling an online form. You can move between the text fields of the form, by using ‘Tab’ key or Shift+Tab’ key. For example—if the first field is for filling your name and the next one is for address, you can move to the address field by pressing ‘Tab’ key and to move back to the previous field, press ‘Shift+Tab’ key.

Know the browser shortcuts:
Internet can be used very conveniently, if you know the shortcuts of the browser. Here are few of the shortcuts that can be used in most of the browsers:

*. Alt+D key = This will move the cursor to the omnibox, without taking the help of mouse.

*. Ctrl+ ‘+ or –‘ = This will increase or decrease the size of the textof the web page. You can alter it, according to your convenience.

*. Spacebar key = It can be used to move to the bottom portion of theweb page.

*. F5 key = It is used to reload the page.

*. F11 key = It is used to view the page, by switching the browser intofull screen mode. For exiting the full screen mode, you have to press F11 key again.

*. Ctrl+B key = It is used to open the bookmark of the internet.

*. Ctrl+Fkey = Looking for a text in the web page manually, is a difficult job to do. You can press ‘Ctrl+F’ key to open up the search box, where you can type the text and search for it.

Tabbed browsing:
Do make use of the tabbed browsing. While reading a web page, if you come across a link that you find interesting to refer and want it to open in another tab quickly, you have two options to do so:
1. Press down the ‘Ctrl’ key and click on the link.
2. If you’re working with a mouse, then open the link by pushing on the wheel of the mouse.

These few tips can make working with internet less time consuming and more productive.

THE SUCCESSORS By Jerry Agada(Summary)
Introduction : The book explores the significant shift that occurs in inheritance as a means of showing the challenges that patterns succession - displaying how at the end, one has to choose a path that either leads to success or failure. The beauty, ugliness, morality or otherwise of the path is not the ultimate message in this book. The Successors is the story of who comes next and how they got there - in this case, the fictional life history of Okoh Ameh and Terkura Atsen and the succession by David and Ifenne. And what did they learn - that Industry and hard work pays. So, as I mentioned earlier, the story is mainly of these two young men Okoh Ameh and Terkura Atsen who met in a hotel as junior workers. Terkurais very ambitious and dreams ofone day owning a hotel as big as the one he is working in. Okohon the other hand is the opposite - very unassuming.


Complete Summary by


Again, just like we dealt with THE POTTER'S WHEEL on the other thread, we have created this thread to discuss Jerry Agada's THE SUCCESSOR.

First, the synopsis:

The Successors is a fiction written by Jerry Agada. The story began with Terkura Atsen and Okoh Ameh (Okoh was from Okporo), who were working in Provincial hotel at Makurdi (Provincial hotelis, government owned).

Mr Eze was a richman who usually visited the Provincial hotel and always gave the twosome money, just to assist them. One day, Terkura dreamt that he owned a hotel and narrated it to Okoh who jeered at him. Later that day, they learned that Mr Eze, their benefactor had died in a riot at Kano. Mr Eze was not educated but was a businessman and had influenced the two boys. Healso made them believe they could still make it with or without education.


Mr Eze wasatrader and dealer, he had visited most of the countries in the world except the USA and the United Kingdom. Eze was proficient at various Nigerian languages and was regarded asa multi-linguist.

Summary of the Potter's Wheel 4 all Jambites(Use of English)
The Potters Wheel, published byChukwuemeka Ike, told the story of an only son, Obuechina,shortly called as 'Obu'. He was the only Son of Mazi Lazarus (Mazi Laza) and Misus (Mama Obu), after theyhad five daughters and prayed fervently to have a boy.Obu was born andanother girlwas birthed after Obu


Obu, known by his 'large head'while he was four, didn't wantto go to school, but the parents, suspecting that he would be brilliant at Academics,turned no listeninghear at him. They had fondly believed that his large was a tanker of brains.
As if they knew it, Obu was making first position in his classes and they made pride with it. Obu, being the only child was mother's favorite andapparently spoilt, becausethe mother would not want him to undertake any of the domestic chores. Misus alwaysshared all the works among the girls.

Programs in computer systems networking and administration prepare people to
manage linked systems of computers and devices. Students learn to design, implement,
and run these systems. They learn to evaluate security needsand develop safeguards.
They also learn to manage computer usage.
Overview
When people think of the Internet, they often think of their favorite website.
Or, they think of it as a place to research and find information. But do you
ever think about the fact that the Internet is one giant computer network? After
all, the information and your favorite websites have to come from somewhere.
In fact, they're stored on servers all around the world. When you look up how
to get to the Picasso museum in Barcelona, Spain, for example, your computer
is connecting to another computer in another continent!
