Project 1: In person drop
Goal: Going the extramile by dropping your cover letter and resume to the company and try to get an interview call.
Choice of place:
Shaukat Khanum Memorial Cancer Hospital
7A Block R-3, M.A. Johar Town, Lahore.
Step 1:
First of all I printed my Resume and Cover letter.
I also prepared my elevator pitch and practiced many times.


Step 2:
As I am doing internship at Mayo Hospital Lahore so I decided to go Skaukat khanum Memorial cancer hospital after my duty. I also talked to my friend to go with me and she easily agreed, so on Wednesday 23rd of August 2017 we went to Shaukat khanum Memorial cancer hospital on bus. We reached there by 1 pm.
Step 3 (Facing the Challenges):
1. First challenge we faced was the distance. We were at Mayo Hospital Lahore, which is on the end of the Lahore, and Shaukat Khanum Memorial Hospital is on another end. Even every rikshaw driver didn’t agreed to go there because the distance is really long. We decided to hire two Rikshaws. One for Mayo Hospital to Muslim town and second one is from muslim town to Shaukat Khanum Memorial Hospital and then we reached there in two hours.
2. When we reached at Shaukat khanum Memorial cancer hospital, the gate keeper stopped us and asked the reason to visit? We explained him many times that we came to meet up with HR manager as I have to drop my resume and cover letter. But he didn’t give us way to go inside.
Step 4: (Solution of challenges):
Fortunately I was having a card of old time when i was working at shaukat khanum memorial cancer hospital as an elective student. When I present the card to gatekeeper and satisfied him that we are medical student. Then he agreed to move us on.

Step 5 (Meeting with HR Manager Assistant):
We faced another bad luck and received a news that HR manager is on leave today and then we decided to meet up with HR manager assistant Mr. Khurshid Alam. He was a really nice man. I handed over my resume and cover letter to him and give my introduction (Elevator pitch) as well. He was really inspired from my passion to get the job at his institute. He assured me that in the next hiring process they will surely call me. He also gave me Job-Form and asked me to fill and submit along with Final degree transcript and CNIC.
Expeience:
It was an auspicious experience, I faced my challenges but I got a lesson that hardship never see failures. I am pretty confident that they will surely call me for an interview.
