The placement season has come to an end and I find myself being placed in the organisation of my dreams. Actually I always found myself attracted towards the banking sector and IRMA I felt gave me a perfect opportunity to fulfil my wish. But fate had something else in store for me. ICICI group the biggest recruiter of IRMA for the last five years failed to show up twice in a row. Even Bank of Baroda did not show up this time. Given the situation, I felt that my current organisation gave me a fair chance of fulfilling my desire of joining the banking sector in the future.
The picture though doesnot seem as rosy as I thought a few months back. It happens all the time with all of us. We work hard for few things in life (atleast think about it continuously) and sometimes even achieve them, but after achieving them you just don’t feel the happiness that you would normally expect. In my experience of 15 months with an organisation I never did anything that an ordinary twelfth pass guy would not be able to do. I also believe the same about my current job and for most of the jobs offered to my colleagues. I might be a little presentable and speak fluent English but that’s where differentiation ends. Sometimes I really wonder why do the corporates hire people like us and make us do monotonous things which any person of average intelligence can do, many times better than me. I believe the same holds true for jobs requiring some mathematical aptitude, the brainy people make the mathematical models used by companies but other guys including those from IIMs and IITs just operate these models which have a set of standard operating procedures.
Anyways I only hope that I would be able to do what I am expected to do and maintain some expected standards for a reasonable time(Stick with the organisation for atleast 2 years). It might happen that someday I might open my open an enterprise and actually put into practise some of my beliefs.
