Having technical knowledge or book fed ideas is not enough. Being a fresher means the element if unpredictability is high in every outcome. One must be spontaneous. You should be ready with back up plans . you should be ready to emerge out of your comfort shell and get into ideas that you never thought would succeed. Being steady even if this GS don't work your way and knowing how to tackle your way out of problems should be another skill. Most of all be ready to explore as the world has many ideas to offer and be ready to embrace every situation as a stepping stone.. No matter how well read you are in your , when you are a fresher, every opportunity teaches you a new lesson.

As a manager, I look for an open minded individual who is prepared to listen and willing to learn as he/she works along with his colleagues.

Someone who is not afraid to speak truth to power, but know when to hold and when to speak.

Experience can be gained through work, making errors, is expected, but what can that person gain from these mistakes, this is the true test is.
