Answer 1

Answer:

Well, I must say that I don't really have any such staggering achievement till date. I might be doing well compared to some of my batch mates from school and college. At the same time I am of course doing a lot worse than a lot more of my batcates from school or college.

If I must note down an achievement of mine that I am truly proud of, then I should narrate my experience of getting two offers of employment in my final year of engineering. I was enrolled in a private college that was part of a private group of colleges, affiliated with the state university. So placements were rarely for my institute alone, mist of the time we had mass recruiters and very few were for the core companies that would employ us in our respective field of study.

My batch had over 400 students of which there were 75 electrical engineering students and I was one of them. Mass recruiters mostly took the guys and girls from CSE or IT departments. We barely had any advantage as coding was not our speciality. I remember, the biggest mass recruiter that came to just our college alone was TCS and it took just 4 from our discipline. We were devastated but we had our hopes up as the campussing season had just begun. After 9 more rounds of appearing for quant, maybe going for gd and hopefully sitting for an interview, another 4 had been placed form our department including myself, in 2 different core companies. The campussing season was closing up and right then I discovered that the company I had cracked, was probably going to remove it's operations in India. Which meant that my offer might be rescinded or indefinitely postponed. My classmate and I who had jointly recieved the offers from said company, were devastaded. There were no companies coming in for placement and all was dark in our eyes. It was a really cruel twist of fate.
