Siebel Interview Preparation Guide

To help you guys to prepare better for Siebel Config/Admin/EAI interview I am giving few tips.
Hope these tips are helpful..


1.Resume:
Resume would be your first face before you go face to face with the Interviewer.Please keep your resume as simple as possible.
Do not write stories which would make your Resume looklike a Textbook rather than having the Skill Set.
I have seen resumes going for around 10 pages but to be honest no Interviewer has patience to read your Stories.
Please dont Mention Created Applet,Create Join,Created Link under the Projects you have worked.This is really senseless thing that 
has been observed.Employees do a Cut and Paste with few wording Changes under the "Role in the Project";again This is a page filling Technique that we used to do while explaining Diagrams in Semester Exams:)
