So, here’s the BRUTAL honest story of my career until now -

25M, I completed my Master’s in the UK in 1 year, and then I worked a full-time job in London, UK, on a Post Study Work Visa for a French Investment Bank (1 yr) and then in the World’s largest interdealer broker (6 Months). While I was working there, my employer couldn’t continue with my employment as they suddenly thought that they could not sponsor my Visa to stay and & work in the UK.

After that, 4 months left on my Visa, I tried everything to get a job but failed and came back to India.

After coming back to the UK, I faced the ultimate fear that I was already expecting - THE GREAT INDIAN CIRCUS SHOW - THE INDIAN JOB MARKET, which I never wanted to face.

I've been continuously trying, and I still am, as it’s been more than six months, I am finding a job here in INDIA -

Here’s the breakdown of my Final Round interview loss or Biggest failure you can say -

1. BANK OF ENGLAND FINAL ROUND (UK) - LOST - BETTER CANDIDATE

2. SOC GEN FINAL ROUND (UK) - LOST - BETTER CANDIDATE

3. OAKTREE FINAL ROUND (UK) - LOST - CHOSE SOMEONE FROM COMPETITOR

4. EUROCLEAR FINAL ROUND (UK) - LOST - NO VISA SPONSORSHIP

5. GOLDMAN SACHS FINAL ROUNDS (UK) - LOST - They told me the visa process would take 12 months. 

6. JPMorgan Chase FINAL ROUND (INDIA) - LOST - HIRING FREEZE

Still trying……
