JOB HUNT-:
This section won't include any job opportunity but will showcase my close chances of getting one!!!
First Opportunity-
My first opportunity came quiet early than expected. I was really very excited. Almost 10 students of our batch applied for the post, but the company, Hexagon Capital Advisory Ltd. shortlisted only 4 of us who didn't had any experience.
We went in all neatly dressed up. It started with a small aptitude round on the basis of which 2 were eliminited.
It happened all in just 15 minutes. We all felt shocked, but we realised that any case it has to be done as there was only one vacancy. Than we went through HR round and cleared it successfully and were told by the HR that we will be called again for technical round.
After a couple of days we were again called for the interview by the research head. This time we were a bit more afraid as it was the technical round. Our fear came to fore when the Research Head came and called us individually for the interview.
I was the first. Interview lasted for around 20 min, but I felt like being inside for almost an hour. For the candidate next to me it lasted on 6 min. I thought that probably he was satified with her and thought that I had missed an opportunity.
We all came back after being told that results will come only after a couple of days. We were all worried again. By 8 in the night I received calls from my friends who were interviewed along with me that they have got the reject mail from the company. I felt sad about it but at the same time that meant, I am the only person in contention for the job.
All my friends were quiet sure of it and even i was. But for the next three days co. did't communicated anything and I thought there is something wrong. Again I was right, they had started open interviews.
I knew that now it will be tough for me to defend my position and same happened. I lost my first golden opportunity to a guy who was having a year experience in the same field.
It was tough to accept the loss as it was my first experience, but only consolidation was I went to the final round and lost to a deserving candidate.
And I moved on....
