I am wondering how I should start my story . The story of me becoming a salesman. Let me go into the past and find out the inception of my journey . I think all things started with my placement.
Somewhere in Oct., 2009
Placement season was on and even students like me who stood last in the so called CGPA parameter wanted to get placed in the most prestigious company. I suddenly started believing in god and visiting the temple became a part of my life. Many Companies visited but all left me asking "MERA NO KAB AYYEGA". But in spite of all these, my frequency of watching movies became intense as before I used to watch movies when I was happy or normal but during placement season I started watching movie when I was sad also. Placement season was a quite boring time for students like me because the same routine was being repeated every day . You need to get up on time, attend the PPT talk (you have to show the company that students are quite interested in them ). You need to clap during the PPT to show them that you were not sleeping and listening to them with much attention .After that they would conduct some written exam or Group decision. If you are fortunate, you would get eliminated in the first round only to enjoy the rest of day but if you are unfortunate, you would clear the first round and get eliminated in the second or third round . But some time students whom we used to think were equal to us , were able to crack the final round also.( Might be they visited the temple more often) . Well, for me every day was the same as I was being eliminated in the first round itself. It used to make me sad for a short span of time but finally the idea of watching new movies loaded in my laptop used to motivate me to start my laptop and once the movie is on, who gives a damn to the placement !
But everything got changed on 4th Feb 2009. By that time I had made my mind for returning to home without a job. But I was not tensed as recession was on peak ( thanks to USA ) which gave me an excuse. So I was sitting on the last bench and listening to the PPT of ING Vysya bank . They wanted to recruit some students for relationship manager post and finally they announced that they needed students from marketing back ground only . Me having Finance background, felt relaxed as I didn’t need to waste half of my day either and I put off my blazer and tie. But some nurd students approached the ING Vysya people and convinced or begged ( don’t know which one is more suitable here) to allow Finance students also and after half an hour I found myself sitting with other students for group discussion
