"There are no right or wrong answers in our interviews, it depends on the situation," R Anish, HRDirector of South Asia, Intel, says. The interviewee is given case studies and gauged on how hewould react to that situation.

A foot inside Intel is not the result of mastery over the art of making motherboards. Adaptability,openness and an ability to speak in acronyms is a must. At every stage, there are focus group discussions.

Conclusion : Getting to JUST ENOUGH for enduring success

leading Nirvana

If you have a firm idea of the big picture in your kaleidoscope of

success, it becomes easier to determine and appreciate enough

in any one activity. Without losing your energy for high aspirations,

you set reachable goals. Just enough is the antidote to societys

addiction to the infinite more.

It is a Journey

When defining your success, remember this important thing.

Success is a journey. It has multiple peaks and not one ultimate

pinnacle. One success builds on another. Setbacks and mistake

will also help you build success. At different periods of your life,

success is defined differently.
