Almost an year ago it was the same time of the year when most of us were
at our peak of nervousness. We were job hunting madly. It was a mad
house. Class notes were replaced by job details and then by SOPs. We all
did end up getting jobs though. Infact half of us got job in the very
first day. Which for many turned out to be a disaster.
What I learned in this whole year was we do lot of things just based on peer pressure and want to conform to the social norms. Higher package, bigger brand the better. And in all that cacophony we forget to listen to our hearts. Two years in TISS prepares us for many challenges that we would face in future, yet we decide to settle for things simpler and easier. If we put ourselves together we can achieve so much for our country and ourselves yet we fail to realise most of it in time.Yes some do realise it before other do and take that bold step. The fact that I am writing this post thousands of miles away from home in a foreign nations speaks volumes as to what we can achieve if we decide to. But its that decision which is important. Do you want to be just one in the large group or would like to do some thing different?
Finally about jobs its not how much you are paid or how big the brand is its also about how much you like the job and the organisation respects you and your ideas. You can always compromise on those but believe me you will not be able to bring the best out of yourself in that process.
So all the best and go for it!!
