Well! my experience was not normal I believe I was very luck person as this so rare to happened. For me after my graduation by2 months (vacation), I decided its time to look for a job; I wrote my CV and decided to visit a recruitment consultancy firm near my home to sumbit my CV. Once I have submitted my CV the consultant send me for an interview  in the same day. Immediately after I finished the interview with the GM he has informed me that I can start from next day morning.

So, I have decided to work, wrote my CV, sumbitted it and went for interview and get hired in one day.

Don't ask me how because this what happened.

At that time i was doing job while completing the Master's and after honors i was offered a better job than I  was doing but couldn't opt it due to time clash of studies and job but i was asked to update the employer about the completion of studies which i did after Masters and then joined that job and the good point from mine was strict follow-up and employer prove their commitment. Since then no looking back!!

Hi Zafar,

 

When I finished my Graduation, I spent a lot of my time on Job Portals similar to Bayt.com.

 

Also relied on newspaper advertisements from leading companies, Consultants and Networking with Seniors from my college.
