      Did you like to watch the sky when you were young? Example Answer Yes, for me ,  having enough money (or a little more than just enough) is a sign of a good lifestyle. And I certainly want to live a life without refusing myself in purchases.      Do you like to work alone or work with a partner? Example Answer I like working alone because I kind of hate being dependent upon other people. However, it also depends upon the team members. If I have a good rapport with the team members, I find it rather enjoyable.      What do you think can be considered as emerging industries? Example Answer Well, I guess, emerging industries are those industries which are based on new products or new ideas, which are in the early stages of their development. These industries are also called sunrise industries. These industries are mostly related to information technology, wellness, hospitality and knowledge.     Do you think it is necessary to follow the fashion and use the latest products? Example Answer I would answer yes and no both to this question. Yes! it is good to be up-to-date with the current trends and use new products. One has to change with the changing times and fashion. No, because the times today are changing very fast and it is very difficult to keep pace with every changing gadget. So, we should be abreast with the current trends, if not the latest.      Do you believe that some products are over publicized? Example Answer Yes, it is an era of advertisement and publicity. Anything that is not advertised, slowly fades away from memory, like they say... out of sight out of mind. When we watch some television programs these days, the intermittent advertisements are repeated again and again and again. So, in terms of competition with each other nothing is too much. Sometimes we get fed up of over publicity, but that is the trick a company plays on the human mind.       Why do you think advertisements are useful in selling products? Example Answer There is a whole lot of research and creativity that is behind making an advertisement. If a product is for the children then the advertisements are made in such a manner that a child pesters his parents on buying that particular brand. Hence, the target is achieved. in case of women's beauty products, the most impeccably beautiful women are projected and women fall in for that particular product, and again the goal is met. So, an advertisement is the most useful method of boosting the sale of any product.
