In pursuit of Passion and Paisa

Twenty-three is an age where you see your friends settling down, getting that job, starting their entrepreneurial setups, and flying abroad. This is the time when you realize some amount of money need peace of mind, and a small social circle, with no drama at all.

As a new bee in the market, you better know some details, that come directly through my insight and experience for the first time I headed out.

Lessons learnt

· Always do what interest you, otherwise go for far related options.

· Prefer interest over trend, do not forget your passion.

· Search for the top organization working for the passion you follow, and people related to your field.

Challenges faced

· For an online organization, do ask them for their address in their official mail with your online application/ interview mail attached. There are huge buildings with many office, and it is better to know before-hand which floor which office you should visit.

· Try searching for a person who already works there in the same field.

· Avoid keeping .doc and .ppt formats of required documents, as at times they are difficult to open.

Overcoming the challenges

· Use navigation Apps like Google Earth and Maps, or Uber and Careem for right direction that also provide you the time and traffic congestion.

· It is good to have an acquaintance in the place where you are going for interview.

· Keep the documents in PDF and hard-copy form that are required for the interview.

Happy Hunting to you
