Be prepared with a list of questions before the first contact with the recruiter and before the interview. Listen carefully to the information that we share with you. Some of your doubts might be lifted but new questions may appear in your mind. You don’t have to wait with your questions until the end of the meeting, make it a lively conversation. This will show your interest and proactivity.”

"My journey as a Technical Lead in the Cloud COE has been marked by significant professional and personal growth. Working on HPC on cloud and earning the Pinnacle Award were defining moments of liberation for me. The autonomy and trust I receive from my mentor and colleagues allow me to set clear goals, innovate freely, and remain open to feedback. This supportive environment has been crucial in shaping my career. Equally important is maintaining a healthy work-life balance. My daily routines, like early morning walks and taking the stairs, along with regular breaks and vacations, help me stay rejuvenated and focused. This holistic approach ensures sustained productivity and happiness, making me truly ""Free in My Job."
Himanshu Goyal
"It’s been quite a beautiful journey of transition and growth. In my short period in the organization, it wasn't a single moment but a series of experiences of learnings, responsibilities and growth on a personal note where I felt the shackles of rigid structures loosen. I discovered setting realistic goals, boundaries and priorities. Some days, work demanded more attention, while others called for some respite. Finding harmony meant being intentional with my time, carving out pockets of joy amidst the hustle. Embracing autonomy, cultivating trust, and honoring the delicate dance between work and life. With each step, we find ourselves free in our journey, flourishing in the boundless expanse of our professional realm."
