    Here we are! You have managed to get a job interview by dint of sending CVs like an automatic machine gun! 
    The time has come! After so much wandering, a company has decided to see you first-hand! 
    All the hours spent filing your resume beyond belief, every evening spent behind the PC sifting through job offers, have finally served a purpose! 
    But now? 
    What to do? 
    At school, at university, no one taught you how to approach a job interview. 
    Panic: what answer and how to answer to the questions, talk little or a lot, dress elegant or sober, remain motionless or move with the body, shake hands or not, browse the company's website or get to the interview in a naive way, in order to be yourself? 
    If we would like to give an answer to all the mental blowjobs that will turn in your head, we just have to say that the truth is simple, damn simple. 
    But, as usual, when something is too simple, we don't consider it a viable option! 
    I'll tell you the secret right away! 
    To successfully pass a job interview, you need study, method and experience: 
    - study, because we need to examine our potential employer thoroughly, understand what he is looking for and what he expects from us 
    - method, because without a plan you can't go anywhere. Don't improvise. Train like a boxer. You are on the ring, and that employment contract must be yours! 
    - experience, because the first few times you will miss it. You will be discarded. Not because you're not good for that job, but because you still won't have the experience of a commander who has won 100 battles. It is normal, do not be discouraged. The sooner you understand where you went wrong in the first few battles, the sooner you will start winning! 
    Are you there so far? 
    Well, you are ready to listen to the audiobook!

    The Chola Empire, one of the longest-ruling dynasties in South Indian history, has origins shrouded in legend and antiquity. The early Cholas find mention in Tamil literature and ancient inscriptions, tracing their lineage back to mythical rulers. The Sangam period texts, such as the Pattinappalai and Puranaanuru, speak of the valor and governance of early Chola kings, who ruled over fertile lands along the Kaveri River. However, after a period of decline, the Cholas reemerged as a dominant force in the 9th century CE under the leadership of Vijayalaya Chola, the founder of the imperial Chola dynasty. 
    Vijayalaya Chola, initially a minor chieftain under the Pallavas, seized the opportunity to establish his rule in the fertile region of Thanjavur around 850 CE. This marked the resurgence of Chola power after centuries of obscurity. By defeating the Mutharaiyars, who controlled the region, Vijayalaya laid the foundation for an empire that would dominate South India for the next four centuries. Under his rule, the Cholas not only expanded their territories but also strengthened their political and military structures. He initiated temple-building activities, commissioning the construction of the temple of Nisumbhasudani in Thanjavur, a precursor to the grand temple-building tradition that would define the dynasty. 
    His successor, Aditya I, continued the expansion by defeating the Pallavas, thereby establishing the Cholas as a formidable power in the region. This victory marked a turning point, allowing the Cholas to assert their dominance over Tamil Nadu. Aditya I’s campaigns also extended into Kongu Nadu and the northern parts of Kerala, laying the groundwork for further expansion. His administrative policies ensured a stable governance system, which helped integrate the newly conquered regions into the Chola fold.
