Got my call from accenture...:)

0
U see the last post?? i've just left it in the middle...That was the first time i've mentioned abt my job and the frustration which i've been thru for not receiving any call from accenture..I was abt to vomit all my frustration in tat post..but the most unexpected happened..I got the call...

I wasn't dreaming of any call from my comp in this month...probably coz of the discussions in the orkut community..there were lot more than few people ready to spread rumours in the community...one of them says that the joining would be in september,2009...the other guy adds "no yaar..tat is for the 2004-08 batch..2009 ppl will be called by the next jan..:O !!"and there comes "shockers and shakers" these ppl come with some shocking and often annoying news...they'd like to pull attention somehow and rumours become their weapons and these tensed situations turn out to be their opportunities..One such guy came up with a news that "Accenture is going to delay the calls of all its 10000 recruits of 2009 batch to march 2010..this is because of the lack of projects,recession..blah..blah..blah..." wat next?? u know wat happens..!! ppl were already fraught with anxiety and this "shaker" left the news of a "bomb in the building".. its panic everywhere..nobody knows if it is true..they keep discussing abt this hot hot "news"....there enters a genius and relieves the others with some facts and truths..he says "accenture recruited only 3000 freshers this year.." and (as hez the hero now , ) he adds "dont believe these gossips guys..that guy is just playing with ur present weakness..." Thanx boss...atleast u came to enlighten us..:P ..This is wat happens everywhere...I'm not sure wat these gossipmongers gain..may be they like to have some fun..:)

So..i just left the previous post the way it was..just to keep it as a nice memory..or may be i can say "i left it on the eve of receiving my call letter..! "..yea..in these troubled times , we may not be sure of securing a good job..at the same time last yr, things were much different..we ppl saw a lot of companies flocking our campus..The TNP section was always crowded..ppl occupying all the halt points..nescafe and amul were always full..that was a great sight..

The companies were equally eager to recruit students of NITW..
i guess about a 100 of more companies came for the placements(not sure of the exact number..TNP coordinators shud help..)..So, we all were pretty confident..My case was a bit different..i cud attend only 3 comanies..Accenture , Onmobile and Idea..coz of my less CG ( 6.27 ) for the obvious reason that i dint study and a less obvious reason is tat i neglected and ignored even at the crucial exam time...even then, i was confident..i got Accenture , which was my first attempt,infact a casual one..So, i was sure that i can secure a decent job,even ouside the campus, if i do a bit of hardwork..but in the second semester, there was a sudden change..this usually happens in the second sem as most of the companies come to recruit in the early days of placement period..but this time, the silence in the TNP seemed different..Not all of us perceived it as a result of the current recession..We dint know that the ongoing recession would impact our future..So finally the placement result was good...We heard that even the IITians suffered as their placements started in the second sem(not sure..)..but we were lucky i must say..But after getting out of the campus,some ppl suddenly lost their jobs..Agilent and Mediatech took back their offers..Not many companies did this but we were apprehending more of such misfortunes...As it became late, i was even contemplating gre or something else to while away these and face a less competitive world in the future..(Ofcourse its not a warrior's attitude..but clever action is better than bold attempt..naa..)but fortunately , i got it in time..but (we r never satisfied...hehe) my only complaint was that i was not placed in bangalore..coz i love that cool city..i love those gardens, climate..and there r many other things i love at b'lore...and i got it at hyderabad...y?? may be coz.."IT IS WRITTEN..! "

Here i want to quote a nice line by Dalai lama...
"REALIZE that sometimes not getting wat u want is a wonderful STROKE of LUCK.."..may be..let us see..!!
