The long wait :-|


B.E. now stands for Berozgar Engineer(jobless for those who dint understand...however my blog is read by Indians only..that too just a few friends of mine..). This blog is dedicated to all my friends and their engineer friends and others who passed their B.E. or B.tech this year. The year when the recession hit the industry so bad that thousands of people lost their jobs and many others(freshers like me) lost their hope getting a job or being given Date Of Joining(My case).
Big brand names and pathetic management go hand in hand(at least here). Big IT companies selected young and enthusiastic(i am not talking only about myself here..) engineers in huge numbers and when it came to give joining these companies were no where in site(not considering Infosys..that is the most respected company among engineers now).
Some of the companies sent a rejection letter straight away(shattering all dreams right away), while there are others who didn't send a rejection letter but starting screwing students in the name of online training(that was kind of same as people had to give 30+ useless exams at a very short notice period...ankush i want a good comment this time) and then there are still more who have given no information about the joining date and has done nothing to keep its future employees occupied.
Wondering which of these company is better because people who got through 2nd and 3rd category of companies are thinking it would have been better had they been rejected in the first place because now 5 months down the line they could have looked for another job by now instead of sitting and waiting for the company to get back to them. However getting a rejection letter after getting selected by a prestigious company is like...(I don't know really like what but I don't think I would like to feel it either)
There is nothing me or any of my friends can do about it though. Its bad luck guys and don't worry this time would pass. There would be a day when we will sit and laugh about these days. Remember you are not the only one who is going through this and trust me we all have a bright future ahead.
Cheers!
