Instaaaaaaaagram

One Direction

From the moment I met you, everything changed
I knew I had to get you, whatever the pain
I had to take you and make you mine (take you and make you mine)

I would walk through the desert
I would walk down the aisle
I would swim all the oceans just to see you smile
Whatever it takes is fine (whatever it takes is fine)

Oh oh ohh oh
So put your hands up
Oh oh ohh oh
'Cause it’s a stand up
I won’t be leaving
‘Til I finish stealing
Every piece of your heart
Every piece of your heart

I know your heart's been broken but don’t you give up
I’ll be there, yeah I know it to fix you with love
It hurts me to think that you’ve ever cried (you’ve ever cried)

Oh oh ohh oh
So put your hands up
Oh oh ohh oh
'Cause it’s a stand up
I won’t be leaving
‘Til I finish stealing
Every piece of your heart
Every piece of your heart

Oh oh ohh oh
So put your hands up
Oh oh ohh oh
'Cause it’s a stand up
I won’t be leaving
‘Til I finish stealing
Every piece of your heart

And I will steal us a car
And we will drive to the stars.
I will give you the moon.
It’s the least I can do
If you give me the chance.

Oh oh ohh oh
So put your hands up
Oh oh ohh oh
'Cause it’s a stand up

(I’m a thief, I’m a thief)
You can call me a thief
(I’m a thief, I’m a thief)
But you should know your part

(I’m a thief, I’m a thief)
I’m only here
(I’m a thief, I’m a thief)
Because you stole my heart

Oh oh ohh oh (I’m a thief, I’m a thief)
So put your hands up
Oh oh ohh oh (I’m a thief, I’m a thief)
'Cause it’s a stand up
I won’t be leaving
'Til I finish stealing
Every piece of your heart

'Cause you stole my heart
(I’m a thief, I’m a thief)
Call me a thief
(I’m a thief, I’m a thief)
But you should know your part
(I’m a thief, I’m a thief)
I’m only here
(I’m a thief, I’m a thief)
Because you stole my heart

Facing the rough times

"When you are inspired by some great purpose, all your thoughts break their bonds; your mind transcends limitations, your consciousness expands in every direction, you find yourself in a new, great and wonderful world...
Dormant forces, faculties and talents become alive, and You discover yourself to be a greater person by far than you ever dreamed yourself to be"

The Barclays Girl :)

I'm clumsy, yeah my head's a mess
'Cause you got me growing taller everyday
We're giants in a little man's world
My heart is pumping up so big that it could burst

Been trying so hard not to let it show

But you got me feeling like
I'm stepping on buildings, cars and boats
I swear I could touch the sky
So they all know that we ain't ever coming down

Ohhh
I'm ten feet tall

I'll be careful, so don't be afraid
You're safe here, no, these arms won't let you break
I'll put up a sign in the clouds

You build me up
Make me what I never was
You build me up
From nothing into something
Yeah, something from the dust

Been trying so hard not to let it show

But you got me feeling like
I'm stepping on buildings, cars and boats
I swear I could touch the sky

Ohhh
I'm ten feet tall

Greeting from Frnds

OK, good morning greetings from Barclay's. We wish you all the very best for the selection process. Although we have already made up our mind to select you, still there are some suggestions that may help.
1.Be super happy and prepare with all that you have got today. You are going to crack both the companies for sure.
2. Headless kurti looks good but it is advisable to select out of the two business dress options sent to you by mail. And not waste much time thinking about it.
We wish you a wonderful day where you will bring all the happiness to keep you flying for the next two days. :)

Best Day !!

Shortlisted fr Barclay's n SAP :)
Its Diwali fr me !!

She Will Be Loved

Beauty queen of only eighteen
She had some trouble with herself
He was always there to help her
She always belonged to someone else

I drove for miles and miles and wound up at your door
I've had you so many times but somehow I want more

I don't mind spending every day
Out on your corner in the pouring rain
Look for the girl with the broken smile
Ask her if she wants to stay awhile
And she will be loved
And she will be loved

Tap on my window, knock on my door
I want to make you feel beautiful
I know I tend to get so insecure
It doesn't matter anymore

It's not always rainbows and butterflies
It's compromise that moves us along, yeah
My heart is full and my door's always open
You come anytime you want, yeah.

I don't mind spending every day
Out on your corner in the pouring rain
Look for the girl with the broken smile
Ask her if she wants to stay awhile
And she will be loved
And she will be loved
And she will be loved
And she will be loved

I know where you hide alone in your car
Know all of the things that make you who you are
I know that goodbye means nothing at all
Comes back and begs me to catch her every time she falls

Yeah

Tap on my window knock on my door
I want to make you feel beautiful

I don't mind spending every day
Out on your corner in the pouring rain, oh.
Look for the girl with the broken smile
Ask her if she wants to stay awhile
And she will be loved
And she will be loved
And she will be loved
And she will be loved

[in the background:]
Please don't try so hard to say goodbye
Please don't try so hard to say goodbye

Yeah, yeah.

I don't mind spending every day
Out on your corner in the pouring rain

Please don't try so hard to say goodbye

Roger that

Dil se de dua , toh bikhaari ameer hai
Moti na de sake, toh samandar fakeer hai
Deta rahega saare andheron ko roshni, Jab tak tere wajood mein- roshan zameen hai

Amazon On its way

What are the 3 things Jeff Bezos- (CEO Amazon) looks in a person before hiring him/her

Amazon has forever changed the way people shop online, but it wasn't always the juggernaut that it is today. In fact, once upon a time it was just a tiny startup with a big vision. So, how did it end up as the giant online retailer that it is now?

It's hard to say, but one thing founder Jeff Bezos was very intentional about was how he hired for the company. In fact, in his 1998 letter to shareholders, just four years after Amazon was founded, Bezos wrote, "It would be impossible to produce results in an environment as dynamic as the Internet without extraordinary people… Setting the bar high in our approach to hiring has been, and will continue to be, the single most important element of Amazon.com's success."

Since then, Bezos has charged his hiring managers to hire based on three critical measures. And if you were to ask him, it's these questions that have made all the difference.

1. Will you admire this person?

Bezos' first benchmark was about admiration. He wanted hiring managers to admire the people they were bringing on to their teams, not just the other way around. Bezos extrapolated that admiration meant that this was a person who could be an example to other and who others could learn from. From this criterion alone, the standard for hiring is kept sky high.

2. Will this person raise the average level of effectiveness of the group they're entering?

The goal for new hires, according to Bezos, is to elevate the company. Rather than having apathy grow as the company grew, he envisioned that each new hire would fight instead of contribute to entropy. Or, in his own words, "The bar has to continuously go up. I ask people to visualize the company five years from now. At that point, each of us should look around and say, 'The standards are so high now--boy, I'm glad I got in when I did!'"

3. Along what dimensions might this person be a superstar?

The last (and quirkiest) thing Bezos seeks from new hires is a distinctive skill or interest to contribute to the company's culture and help cultivate a fun and interesting workplace. And it doesn't have to be related to the job--he gives the example of one employee who is a National Spelling Bee champion. While there's a lot to be said for being well-rounded, it's the pointy ones that Bezos wants.

It's been over 15 years since Bezos wrote about these hiring goals, but given Amazon's success, his advice is certainly worth considering. So, if you're interested in growing your team, first get a grip on your company culture and embed it into your hiring process. Then it's ultimately about finding a way to keep hiring standards high in whatever way resonates with your hiring managers. While you may not want to adopt Amazon's entire hiring philosophy, it's certainly worth picking up a trick or two from Bezos. If Amazon's success is any indication, he clearly knows what he's doing.
