| I came to Baroda (now Vadodara) in 1995 to work with Goel Scientific Works |
In an earlier post, I wrote about moving from Lucknow to Bareilly and completing my
post-graduation from Rohilkhand University. With a Master’s degree in hand, it
was time to look for a job, but my search for work wasn’t exactly yielding
great results. So, now what? The story continues here.
Back in 1993, when I had completed my graduation from Lucknow University and
was struggling to figure out what my next steps should be, it was my father who
had suggested that I should move to Bareilly, where he was posted at the time.
He was the one who had encouraged me to do my post-graduation from Rohilkhand
University and simultaneously also enroll in ICFAI’s distance learning program
for CFA certification. While I had dropped out of CFA after just a few months,
I had at least been able to complete my post-graduation from Bareilly – at
least now I had a Master’s degree and could put that on my CV, even if the
reality was that I did not really care for accounts, commerce, banking and
business studies etc., and did not know much about any of these subjects,
despite having a degree that implied I should.
