Q&A Interview contest – you ask, you answer
We've had good participation in earlier interview contests, in which you played the role of both, the interviewer and interviewee. So let's have some fun again in this dual role!What you have to do: Given below is a list of people. Imagine you are interviewing one of them, asking the person three questions. At the same time, you take on the role of the interviewee and answer those three questions. That is, how would you respond if you were asked those questions? You can put whatever name you wish.
Select one person from this list-
1. An entrepreneur who has launched a venture at age 60+.
2. A child prodigy.
3. A sportsperson who despite superb achievements is not selected for the national team for an upcoming prestigious international competition.
4. A transgender owning and managing a restaurant.
5. An activity teacher (any activity at the school/college/university level).
6. An airport cargo handler.
Rules:
1. A member can submit only one entry. Please put a link to this thread at the end of the interview. It should be a fictitious interview with a fictitious person and not of actual people, past or present. Do not mention medications (drugs), weapons, and the like, and adhere to forum posting guidelines.
2. Submit the entry as a forum thread in Discussion Forums>>About IndiaStudyChannel>>Competition Entries. Both, the questions and answers should be in English only. The title should have the word 'interview'. Then submit the URL of the thread in a response to this thread to be eligible for the prizes. You may edit your entry at any time before the close of the contest for correcting spelling, grammar, and typo. However, you cannot change any question or answer.
3. While we are not placing any minimum or maximum word limit, both the question and answer should be concise and not too lengthy. You may give one relevant internal link if you so wish (not mandatory).
The prizes:
Best interview in terms of the queries asked and answered: Cash award of Rs.125/-.
Second prize: Rs.100/-.
We may consider a consolation prize of Rs.50/- and other entries may get enhanced points and cc.
Closing date: 29th August 2022.
A few tips: We'll be looking for unique questions and the manner in which it is answered, and the title, should stand out as well. While more than one member may select the same interview type and perhaps will come up with similar questions, when considering the winners, we will give preference to the one who thought of the question first. We will also expect good responses, with each entry like a forum discussion, and reward good ones with cc.
