Hello friends, Thought of sharing some thoughts with you all, After many application rejections I got a call from company- Tourlane for initial round of discussion, and scheduled on Monday-8.12.25 And I am applying for jobs from India. Just a thought to share with you all.

I spent 2 years of my Iife in Germany in this black hole. Reason: No one to guide me at that time, but this is what I did I lived a painful life in Germany. I made mistakes but I learnt a lot. If you wanna grow, never do these mistakes.... 1. Never do Pizza Delivery job 2. Never do Restaurant job 3. Don't be that Moving Guy 4. Don't be a summer worker in production facilities The outcome? Yes, I earned money, but was it worth it? For my future these jobs did not helped directly in any way. I wasted 2 years to figure this out, if you want to avoid those mistake and save your life span

Oct 2012: I could remember how I was stranded for the first time outside India, I landed in Munich Airport, with "0" German language skills and was standing like newborn baby ready to take my bus to Ingolstadt. Feb 2013: I got into my first internship in Germany and that's when I felt the company culture for the first time in my entire life. I was blessed NOT to start my work culture in India. Sep 2014: After almost 2 years of doing my Masters, I found, I was studying a course where I had almost zero interest and passion. But I found a way through one of elective subject that inspired me, I never thought I would become an expert in this particular field. Feb 2015: I spent 6 months diving deep on this subject on my own, skipping my regular classes, because I knew I found what I wanted, and I do not want to sacrifice for the sake of my Masters. This once step changed my life. May 2015: I saw 2 of my friends in the same situation who sacrificed their passion and continued to finish their studies: RESULT: They could not be able to find any job in Germany and went back to India. On the other side, my 6 months of hard work inside the library, got me an internship along with my final year project in a reputed organization in Germany. Oct 2016: A path on my full-time job search journey came to an end: during the 10-month period I failed multiple times, implemented different strategies, nothing worked until a magic German Resume book that I found in my university library (Thanks to Technische Hochschule Ingolstadt). I just did not read that book and move on to the next rather I started implementing all the strategies that I learnt from the book, the result was tremendous, I suddenly started getting interview calls. With my broken German I have attended 50+ interviews to get 2 offers in end. Dec 2017: My that time girlfriend (today: my wife) suggested me to start a YouTube channel, I was not aware of where it will lead me to, but without any expectations I was providing tons of value to my viewers, with which I had many great stories that made them to get into universities and also get jobs in Germany.
