A Journey Of Perseverance And Dedication

Perseverance journey

In November 2023, my college placements began, and by the grace of God, I managed to crack all the companies I interviewed with on campus.

However, due to some family issues, I couldn't join any of those companies that came with certain agreements. I discussed my situation with my TPO and pleaded for understanding, but every college has its rules. Unfortunately, the TNP cell banned me from the campus drives. As a Tier 3 student, my hope was primarily pinned on on-campus placements, and this setback was devastating.

"For a month, I was deeply disturbed and uncertain of my future. I sought advice from many people and faced numerous challenges during that period."

Despite everything, I never made excuses during my preparation journey and continued working tirelessly on my skills, 24/7. After being banned from campus placements, some of my classmates were pleased because they saw me as their biggest competitor. But I believed in myself, and my hard work, and trusted in God.
