After few days, I got a screening mail from the company with the tasks list. They asked me to complete the given tasks and reply within two days. I did the same.
Later I got a call from the company for the telephonic interview; everything went well till that question popped up.
"What's your current CTC?”
I told them "I'm a fresher, 2018 MBA graduate, you can check the resume I sent"
"Okay, I'll check and call you later" HR said. Though not a voice expert, I could sense surprise in HR's voice.
Still I was satisfied and consoled myself saying if not for lack of experience, I would have got the job.
One of the tasks given by the company is to write an article about the picture they shared. They gave two pictures - out of which I have to choose one and write article. Of late, I wasn't writing much and when I completed the article, I wanted to share with everyone through my blog.
Here's the article:
“Peace” he said.
“Where you find that?” his colleague asked.
Time is 1 AM. Two colleagues are walking in the road, to have a cup of coffee in between their night shift work.
“I joined the company just two weeks before, I started feeling more occupied and it's just been two weeks” his colleague continued.
“In office, you have to search peace. It depends upon the project you’re put in. But, in your home you can create peace” he said.
“So, you’re married or what?”
“Brother, why should I come to night shift if I’m married?”
Both laughed.
“I’m staying in my apartment, monthly once either my parents visit me or I go to my hometown and visit them” he said.
“Staying Alone? I have read stress is one of the side effects of staying alone.”
“I agree. You’re in the office for 8 hours, maximum 10 hours. Remaining 14-16 hours you have to spend in your home. It lies in your hands to make your place heaven or hell”
“How you find peace in your home?” newly joined colleague continued his questions.
“Inside the house, paint with your favourite colour. At least paint in hall and bedroom. Keep your place decorated. Psychologically, when you see the things you like, your mind relaxes.”
“Tell me more” his colleague asked enthusiastic
“It is all about peace. My favourite colour is White. I had painted my doors, walls inside my hall and bedroom in white colour, where I spend more time. In my hall I have kept reading lamp which is also white in colour. Gardening is my hobby. Near the lamp, I have a table with plantlets in pots which are decorated with glass cubical. Finally, there’s my yellow coloured cushioned chair with tiny pillow. Yellow is a colour of happiness and a pillow to cuddle and first to share my thoughts. At the end of the day, when I reach home, first thing I search for is my chair and a pillow where I relax my mind. Peace has to be created by thyself, in this big world.” he briefed about his peaceful world
“Can I see a picture of your hall?”
“Sure brother.” he said and opened his phone.
He opened a pic and showed it to his peace searching newly joined colleague.
“Where you find that?” his colleague asked.
