DIARY OF AN EMPLOYED ELECTRICAL ENGINEER

Sequel to 

DIARY OF A FRUSTRATED ELECTRICAL ENGINEER

Disclaimer: I suppose you might have read the previous narrative of mine and the account you are gonna experience ahead is from the Charlie himself.

Hi …the name is Charlie…and I’m back…back with a job.

The last post was the outcome of one of the many unsuccessful trips to PTP (courtesy Deloitte.) and the journey continued in the same manner raising the frustration with each episode. Let’s talk statistics, made constructive use of Facebook by applying for 30 companies, developed more than 10 weaknesses and strengths and can tell me about myself in the best possible way result of facing 10 interviews , aur kher written to nikal hi jaata hai.(14 writtens)

Let’s shift to the post midterm vacations. Well they say and I quote “frustration can make you do horrible things”: I decided to stay back at hostel and thought of opening a new GATE…I did manage some Xerox copies…..If anybody wants …you are welcome….

In that 1 week more or less…..i tried to learn some basics….got cleared some…..laziness overcome others….and also the T20series….the live streaming was damn good…… Then came another string of continuous rejections….. Honda…Emerson ...Lafarge….JCB….even the totka of Gaurav’s shirt didn’t work…(which by the way had given 4/4 placements till that time)

Till now I had kinda lost hope of getting  anything….literally….from this college……my CAT percentile already made the blast by not even crossing(forget the 99 mark) the 90 mark….and I had lost the gamble worth 14k…..ask any of the dedicated PT fellows…..no hard feelings…

Then came the DAY…..

I was cool….core company hai….bhai TATA hai TATA with POWER.

The written was nothing kinda new….ab to technical written nikalne ki aadat bhi ho gyi thi….next day I was shortlisted for the GD round….then guess what (sentiyapaaaaa alert….)…for the first time in the history of  my post-written experiences, I called home….yeah!  for the FIRST time in the 30^th one……"that I have cleared the written round…..now there will be GD….then interview…. blah.. blah.. blah…." and pitaji ne pucha "beta package kitna hai".

And let’s just mention the incidental conspiracy which shattered my hopes as the sole winner seemed quite obvious at that point of time.

Now comes the denouement (don’t worry……just tried the WordWeb here)……The name was announced……and I couldn’t even cry…..I was like……jaane do yaar jyaada hi senti ho jaega…. I think I should end it…….

P.S.: Every dog has its day……this time it was charlie’s….13/1/13.
