All of us experience major and minor life challenges. How we handle these struggles on a daily basis determines our physical, as well as our mental well-being. It takes only a single event to convince us we have no control over our circumstances. Sometimes these challenges consume us with guilt, panic attacks. Our problems pressure us from every side, threatening to crush or break us.

In Pakistan, it is very difficult to find a job at once you applied. Like my example, I am very passionate to get job at big MNC’s. Question is that how much we are sincere about our responsibilities, how much we are competent to face challenges. I challenged my self, I have applied online as per requirement as Manager Admission at LUMS. But i did not received any email about my status although i have sent follow up email too.

I decided to go in person, meet the HR and drop the CV. When i reached reached LUMS, security guard ask my identification and gave me permission to HR team. Surprisingly, HR manager was not there, but i met to Officer HR Ma’am Rabia. First i introduced myself and described my Elevator Pitch and handed over my CV to her. I Asked about my status, She checked the mails and searched my name. She happily replied that Hariss you have to wait until we prepare short listed of candidate. We will call you for interview soon. I said than you for your time and consideration and came back.

I learnt a lot that only online apply is not enough, we have to go extramile to get reward from other. Although i have applied online but after in person they feel different about me that how passionate he is, even he came to meet in person just for knowing his status. Its all about passion and interest. It was great experience to went in person. InshaAllah, they will call me for interview, i will be more confident at time of interview, because i have already faced them.

EFFORT NEVER RUIN..!
