Missed out on the final round of a once in a lifetime opportunity. Gave my every bit into preparation but couldn't clear it. Feeling so depressed and finding it difficult to move on. Rewinded the final round in my mind almost 100 times. Really need a strong motivation to get over it.

I always have believed that if you haven't been able to make somewhere, it's good that you didn't. Coz that place wasn't meant for you and vice versa. Had you gotten there, you would have suffered for worse. Not one size fits all. You are meant for something else (not worse or better). So wait and you will get the right one for you. You get what you should and not what you want. And I think it's a good thing. Jobs are like arranged marriage. You both sit and talk and there is no worse or better choice. It's all about the Right choice.

Did you do the NIPT? I just had my first prenatal appt and they scheduled me for the NIPT at 10 weeks. I’m a little nervous and anxious. Did anyone get it and got a false positive? Do you not recommend it? I wish I could ask family but we’re not telling anyone until the 12 weeks mark.

We need to STOP glamorizing overworking. Please.

The absence of sleep, good diet, exercise, relaxation, and time with friends and family isn’t something to be applauded.

To many people wear their burnout as a badge of honor. It’s time to consider pivoting.

And it needs to change.

I figure if anyone can understand this, it’s you all. I feel like I’m losing my damn mind. I have always loved communications, and I’m really good at it.

Two and a half weeks ago, I quit my job with nothing lined up. Not the smartest thing I’ve ever done, but I kind of feel like self-preservation was at work here. I want to do work that makes a difference. ☹️

My joining in both are in around May last week. Tomorrow my IBM pre onboarding HR will connect with me. Should I ask for a counter offer tomorrow itself?
Or should I ask 2 weeks before joining?
Many told me that companies revise CTC when the joining date is near, else they show less interest. So should I go for it now itself?
Appreciate ur inputs🙂
