Well, at first I found it difficult to gather the courage because I was feeling a bit nervous and fearing that how they will response. I was planning to apply as a Correspondent in Uber a renowned customer service company providing door step vehicle to their customers.

With help of the lessons provided by Amal Academy, I wrote a cover letter and updated my resume. I collected the information from some of my friends who were already working there; they helped me to collect information about the HR officer and other norms of the organization. Through website I collected more information regarding how they were providing the customer services. I found the exact address of the office and reached at 0900, I greeted the security guard and asked him to allow me to drop my resume. He assisted me towards reception, where I met the receptionist, I humbly greeted her and told that I was here to meet Miss Farah; she called the HR officer and told me to sit in lobby. I waited for 20 minutes to meet the HR officer and as long as she came I greeted her with a pleasant smile on my face, I introduced myself professionally and told her that I wanted to drop my resume and cover letter.

Farah was looking a kind lady; she took my resume and cover letter and told me that she will respond as soon as she went through my resume, because she was secluded in a meeting and in a hurry to go.

The overall experience was so good and encouraging that I will definitely keep trying this practice. I learnt that I needed to be more focused on the secluded and should collect information from reception that the person with whom I am supposed to meet was busy at that moment or not, I think this is how we can be more focused on the HR officer and grab their attention easily.
