Love traveling. Will admit that I've chosen short traveling projects over local options even though the local ones had slightly better work. As a mid 20s dude, why the hell shouldn't I travel across the country at the client's expense?! Think about it as a perk for all the hard work 🙂

I received an offer from IBM Bangalore. However I saw openings at my preferred location Kochi only after the interviews. I called the HR after getting their point of contact mail and I asked if it's possible to switch. They said I'm already tagged to a project and that they'll check from their end if it can be done.

Anyone knows the chances of location being changed after receiving the offer and getting tagged to a project?

I have not yet accepted the offer.
