“I am a software developer at Onward Technologies, Chennai, and I aspire to work at Zoho Corporation, Chennai. I revised my engineering topics in preparation for my interview with Onward Technologies and was happy to pull it off successfully. My father is a fisherman, and my family is thrilled that I work in an IT company. I presented new clothes to them with my first salary."

“I am a production planner at Flowserve Corporation, where I organize the day’s production schedule, and feel content when we achieve our target. After completing mechanical engineering, I opted to work in the pump industry as I think it has potential. From my first day, I forged a wonderful camaraderie with my teammates. In the future, I aspire to work at Caterpillar Inc. I celebrated my first salary by gifting my mother and sister earrings.”

“I used to be an intern, and am now a project assistant in the physics department at IIT Delhi. I work with scientists and scholars in the research and development of environmental monitoring devices. What I like most about my job is that I am working with the brightest minds in India on solving one of the most relevant and important problems of our generation—particulate air pollution. I want to become a scientist, support my family, and contribute to the community.”

“I joined SNAP Natural & Alginate Products Pvt. Ltd. as a sales associate after completing my B.Sc. in Agriculture, a subject that inspires me. My job allows me to broaden my knowledge and ideate, and meeting clients further enriches my expertise. The company motivates me to work with an open mind in a stress-free milieu. Eventually, I aim to work at Syngenta, a Swiss agri-tech company.”

“I went through seven rounds of interviews before getting placed as a software debug engineer at Zoho Corporation. Before the interviews, I browsed the internet for aptitude tests and programming, and in comparison, my first day at work was easy—I attended an induction program. At Zoho, I create bots, identify issues with products, and fix them. I dream of launching my own start-up in the future.”

“As a detailer at Proxedge Solutions LLP, I detail steel used in constructing buildings. I like this job with design at its core, and I am excited as my company also handles US and Canada-based projects. A close relative who is a successful civil engineer inspired me to pursue this path, and I want to spread my wings and work abroad—maybe in Dubai.”
