If you think it’s hard to meet new people, try picking up the wrong golf ball.”

I am interested in being a lecturer of Computer Sciences at Government Degree College for Women. I am also interested in having a job in database management at same place.

I was waiting for internee’s notification at College or some update like that. Even I did not have the Detail Marks Certificate of passing M.Sc from University. This week, I used to go extramile and went to university, applied for DMC and got a Hope Certificate too. I have prepared my Resume and Cover letter and took the photocopies of all the previous educational Marks Sheets and Certificates with me. I went to College.

I had done research on college staff, and addministration as well.My sister Aqsa is also there as a lecturer of English subject, I asked her to contact the HOD of Computer Science of college and tell her that I want to meet.I used the name of Principal and the Head of department of Computer Science as refrence while enetering in College. I said “I want to meet Madam Zubaida and Madam Aisha for the detail of internship”. Madam Zubaida is the principal of college and Madam Aisha is the HOD of Computer Science Department. So, I got in.

The guards said to me that the classes are over and perhaps madam Aisha has gone back to her home. Because it was friday when I went there, that is why I was a bit disappointed, But still I kept on searching madam Aisha’s office.

I found the Office of Madam Aisha. Fortunately, she was there at her office, I got the permission to be there at her office and told her the purpose of being there.She offered me to sit on the seat before her.I introduced myself by using elevator pitch and then gave the refrence of my sister, she recieved my resume and told me “CTI’s jobs may not be offered this year. you have to pass PPSC test for lecturership”. Then she asked me 2 to 3 questions related to CS.

Then she said “ okay miss Shahbano, I hope that you’ll pass the PPSC”. ”Thankyou Madam for your time and I hope that I’ll have an experince to work there under your leadership”, I replied. I asked her to give me her email address but she said that she was in a hurry so she didnt give me the mail address. I wanted to say her thanks to show gratitude through email.

My first Experience was too good, I think there are two or three reasons for that luck 1- Reasearch 2- Refrence 3- Equipped with confidence, Super Resume and Cover letter 4- The HOD was cooperative, polite and kind. She understood all of my discussion and guided me correctly. All of these made my first in-person drop successful.

At the end, I want to qoute here the saying of Marc Veasey

” When you go out and meet new people, you can come up with new ideas and be enlightened and help the country become a better place”.
