Happy Friendship Day...


After almost 3months, 2nd blog from me. First of all wish you all a very very happy friendship day.

"Friendship isn't a big thing - it's a million little things" - one Good Quote I found when I was searching for something else.
I got the following info after searching a lot online. Not sure if it is true really. Can some1 cofirm?

"In 1935,American Govt had killed a person on 1st saturday of Aug. The next day his friend committed suicide.. In his memory American Govt had declared 1st sunday of Aug every year as Friendship day." I couldnt get more info. Any more info from anyone is welcome.

Anyway on this day. I wanted to thank all the friends right from the times I remember (back as far as 1991) to the new friends those I made today.

I can write pages nd pages about all the Good times that I had spent with my friends(just like today). Cant write them all and cant single out any of them.

Im very fortunate to have many good friends all through my life.
I can't thank enough, the Almighty for the same. I can thank all my friends though :)

Finally my first blog. So many things to say and not enough time to say it to all whom I wish to.
First things first. Thank to Nike for giving me the idea to start blogging. Hope this helps to get me out of my mindset. Anyway something good happened today. So thought to start blogging and share it with you all. I got the offer letter from Accenture. I had always wanted to goto Hyderabad from the past 1 year or so and My P.M said it is not so easy. I absolutely don't like the work I do. Got a very good team and I like each one of the guys I had the chance to work with. Everyone is so helping but still I feel like Im carrying a 100Kgs on my head when I do the work Im doing presently. So finally, looks like my first blog got to do more with my office but then we spend 5days in a week in office and everyday atleast 8/9 hrs. So I hope it is not a bad topic to start with.
Lemme also say a little about my Interview. I got a mail ystrday that the interview is at 9am and the place is abt10Kms and will take min 75mins in the peak time but I started at 7 30 so could reach just about 8 30 or so. By the way, I was reading,reading and reading all the night -almost- Could get some sleep only after 4 30am and got up at 6 30 i.e <2hrs...Then they kept a written test of 25 Qstns -30 mins- I always knew I could clear any written test after my preparation and that too MCQs... May be I was one of the toppers or they called for interview randomly, I was one of the 1st guys to give the interview. The interviewer was a bit Senior -may be late 30's or early 40's- and very friendly. He asked me abt Project and current role. I said abt edi and all -completely diff from M.Fs for which Im givng the interview- He seems to be interested in this. Though Im not so interested in this stuff frankly, I knoe quite a bit of it and anyways I dont think he knows much of it, I could make an impression that Im good at wat Im doing. I said I came out of M.Fs some 6months back and I had an exp of 2yrs in M.Fs. But for abt 20 mins we had the discussion on my current team -edi processing n all- So I could make a good impression. Then he asked me some Qstns in M.Fs very basic Qstns and I could answer -well- all of them. I had prepared weill after all -all the night- and before that too. Then the HR round was nothing at all. just current CTC, expected CTC, preferred location and only 2 general Qstns. All this got over by 12 30pm or so and then a little negotiation about CTC. They sticked to ttheir decision and I had to accept and only asked for Hyderabad location. They didnt guarantee that also. Anyways finally I think Im gonna make my first jump.
Hope everything goes fine.
