Got the job!!!
The mocks with Ishank became one of the biggest turning points for me.
Read the whole post
From I don’t think I’ll make it to a job offer!
I kept manifesting this day, where I could finally write this post.
I’m so happy and emotional to share that I’ve accepted a new job offer as an R&D Project Supervisor with a salary of $80K/year
A few months ago, I was in a completely different place. I was working at a care facility, and although I was grateful to have a job, I knew deep down that it wasn’t where I wanted my career to go. I kept applying, interviewing, getting rejected, and slowly started questioning myself.
There were so many moments when I genuinely thought, Maybe I’m not going to make it in Canada.
I had a Civil Engineering background and a Master’s degree, but somehow I still struggled to communicate my value and present myself confidently in interviews.
I had been following Bani on Instagram for a long time, watching the success stories and content from this community. I knew I wanted to join the coaching program, but financially, it wasn’t easy. I started saving money specifically so I could join.
And eventually, I did.
One of the most humbling moments for me was my first mock interview with Ishank.
I walked into that mock feeling VERY confident. I thought I was prepared.
Then the mock happened.
And honestly… I cried afterward.
My performance was nowhere near what I thought it was. I realized how overconfident I had been and how much I actually needed to improve. It was difficult to hear, but it was exactly what I needed.
The mocks with Ishank became one of the biggest turning points for me. They helped me understand where I was going wrong, how to structure my answers, how to communicate my experience, how to handle difficult questions, and most importantly, how to believe in myself while still being prepared.
Ishank, thank you for pushing me, correcting me, and giving me reality checks.
A huge thank you to Bani and Gaurav as well for helping me with my resume and LinkedIn optimization. The way you helped me present my experience and position myself made such a difference. Thank you for all your guidance and support! Thankyou Ishank and Bani for building this community. I had been following you for a long time before I finally joined, and I’m so glad I took that step.
From Rejections to Offer Letter: Rewriting My Career Story in Canada
What hurt most wasn’t rejection. It was not even getting the chance to speak.
From Can I Do It? to I GOT THE JOB! 🎉❤️
I used to read other Ninjas’ success stories and think, One day, I’ll write mine too.

I’m happy to share that I have accepted an offer for the Financial Services Representative (FSR) role at CIBC, one of Canada’s Big Five banks.
This role is mainly focused on sales , and that is where my two years of sales experience really helped me. Banking was not originally my field, but I knew I had strong transferable skills from sales. During the interview process, I had a coffee chat with the hiring manager, and I focused on showing how my experience could add value in this role. I’m really grateful that the hiring manager saw that and gave me the opportunity.
One thing that went really well during my interview was my PPT presentation. I prepared a presentation on CIBC and explained how I could bring my sales background and transferable skills to the role. I made sure I touched on every single point the hiring manager was looking for. The hiring manager was impressed with how well I explained my ideas and connected my experience to the position.
Ninjas, please practice your PPT! Don't just prepare the slides. Practice presenting them until you feel confident explaining every single point. That confidence can make a BIG difference.
But honestly, this post is not just about getting the job.
It’s about the journey that got me here.
I still remember taking the GO bus from Brampton to my part-time job. Whenever I passed Square One and I saw those big corporate buildings, I used to look at them for minutes and think:
How hard would it be to work for an organization like this one day?
I used to read other Ninjas’ success stories and think, One day, I’ll write mine too.
And today, I finally can.
I remember joining @Bani Singh Bhoma Instagram Live before joining coaching and asking:
Is it better to work as a manager in retail, or are corporate jobs better?
Bani told me that corporate could give me a better lifestyle, a 9-5 schedule, and better growth compared to retail. That conversation stayed with me, and I decided to take the chance.
The team is really excited to offer you this position
After few initial session it was clear to me that my problem was not technical but mentality.

These are the words every one of us wants to hear and yesterday was that day for me.
There was a time when i was lost and wasn’t applying for jobs and self doubting. I had been following ishank and bani on insta for quite some time and as the time passed i knew ki bhai ab apne se nhi ho rha to unse help lo jinne ukhada h kuch.😂(sorry for the words but i thought exactly this). Then the august sale came and without wasting any more time i join these guys.
After few initial session it was clear to me that my problem was not technical but mentality. I started working on myself. Gave myself time to reflect on my experiences and know myself and it worked out for me.
Thursday 11 am was my first interview for my first company and friday 4:30 i had verbal offer letter. In just under 30hrs. The job role is great; SQL reporting and analyst. The team is fantastic. The pay is solid 85k for an fresher in this field. I was SD back in india. The growth potential is solid since it’s relatively new company. The role align with my future plans and they have amazing perks too; including free education to me and my family in university.
Once again i want to thank bani and ishank for their motivations and guidance would had took me much much time without you guys. My friends and ninjas keep working hard your day will also come.
Win 😀😀
So far, I’ve gone through 15 interviews, received 3 offers, and I’m still waiting on responses for 2 more positions from WSP.

Hello everyone. It’s been a long time since I last posted, but I’m excited to share some great news.
I’ve officially secured a Field Assistant Engineering position with the Toronto Region Conservation Authority.
This journey has been nothing short of a learning experience. So far, I’ve gone through 15 interviews, received 3 offers, and I’m still waiting on responses for 2 more positions from WSP. This journey has been full of ups and downs, but every experience has been a lesson. Before landing this role, I got my first field job as an Auditor—but things didn’t turn out as expected. That experience taught me a crucial lesson: always make sure you fully understand what you’re accepting in an offer. If you ever see additional responsibilities included, ask what those responsibilities are! I worked there for a few days, realized it wasn’t the right fit, resigned, and restarted my job hunt and Within just a few days, I had 5 interviews lined up, and gave the interviews form where I got the offer from TRCA.
Starting from scratch applying, networking, and refining my approach has taught me a lot. My biggest takeaways:
1-Cold emails—targeting the right people makes all the difference.
2- Implicit connections—coffee chats helped me immensely.
3- Putting ego aside & seeking the right guidance—this is a game-changer.
4- Daily interview prep—because once your resume, cover letter, and strategy are solid, interview invites start rolling in.
5- Time management- I was giving daily 6 hours which included cold emails in morning before 8am and implicit and explicit connection in afternoon, interview prep. with certification courses in evening.
In my view, landing a job - 70% interview preparation and 30% applications & strategy.
A huge thank you to Ishank and Bani for your guidance throughout this journey.Excited for what’s ahead 😀
Finally!!!
I negotiated respectfully, confidently and secured $6,000 more than the initial number.

Today, I’m proud to share that I’ve accepted an offer as a Chemical Operator at Apotex Inc..
This moment means more than just a job title. It represents months of uncertainty, rejections, self-doubt, and constant effort.
There were days when I questioned my strategy. Days when I refreshed my inbox more times than I want to admit. Days when I wondered if my Master’s degree and past experience would ever translate into a real opportunity here in Canada.
But I kept going.
Cold emails. Follow-ups. Interview prep. Technical rounds. Background checks. Staying disciplined when results were invisible.
And then came the call.
The manager was impressed. HR discussed compensation. I negotiated respectfully, confidently and secured $6,000 more than the initial number. That conversation alone was a reminder: know your value, but communicate it professionally. (Thank you so much @Bani Singh Bhoma for developing negotiation skill in me)
When the offer email arrived, I just sat there for a few minutes. Quiet. Grateful. Relieved.
This isn’t just my achievement. I’m deeply thankful to @Bani Singh Bhoma and @Ishank Tandon ; their guidance, structure, and tough advice pushed me to think strategically, not emotionally. Sometimes you need people who challenge you, not just motivate you.
Most importantly, this step brings me closer to fulfilling my parents’ dreams. Everything they sacrificed, every risk taken to support my education, today feels like a small return on their faith.
To anyone still searching:
Rejection is redirection.
Silence does not mean failure.
Preparation compounds.
Follow the process.
Keep improving. Keep reaching out. Keep learning. Your breakthrough can come quietly and suddenly.
On to the next chapter. 🚀
I DID IT — and so can you! 💫
I’ve officially landed a Data Analyst role — selected from over 800+ applicants, with no Canadian degree and no Canadian work experience.

After months of navigating job boards, interviews, and self-doubt, I’ve officially landed a Data Analyst role — selected from over 800+ applicants, with no Canadian degree and no Canadian work experience.
This isn’t just a job offer. It’s a reminder that strategy, resilience, and community support can break barriers that once felt immovable.
Every day when I woke up, I used to tell myself, I just need one yes.
That single thought kept me going — through the rejections, the silence, the we’ve decided to move forward with other candidates.
I leaned into every resource, every moment of feedback. I tailored my story, showcased my impact, and stayed relentlessly curious. And now… From a dependent wife ---> Financially empowered one.
Cheers to my husband and family — the ones who lifted me up when I doubted myself. I can finally take a moment from job-hunt chaos and breathe.
Major Thanks to @Ishank Tandon and @Bani Singh Bhoma - Your honest feedback and strategies helped me evolve into a stronger and confident version of myself.
To every Immigrant Ninja still grinding: Your background is not a limitation — it’s your edge. Keep refining. Keep showing up. Keep believing. The breakthrough is closer than you think. 💪
Big WIN!!
I got 2 interview opportunities through one Linked message and without even applying for any job.

I am really grateful that I joined this community. @Ishank Tandon and @Bani Singh Bhoma , I really want to appreciate for starting this community and giving a proper guidance and mentoring us to achieve such heights.
I got a Project Coordinator position at PHSA, a publicly funded health service provider in British Columbia and a benchmark for all job enthusiasts in BC. I can vouch when I say that Machine Gun method really works wonders when you stick to it.
I got 2 interview opportunities through one Linked message and without even applying for any job. I could not clear the first one and the recruiter reached out to me again when there was an opportunity and I was a perfect fit.
I know you might get ignored from 100s of people but you only need a few to respond. Even if you don't get it done be respectful and reach out and let them know you would love to talk again if an opportunity arises.
Finallyyyy Big WIN

My journey getting into a FAANG company (Amazon) as a Data Analyst 💥
Now I know how to stand out in an interview to let the company know that I am the right fit for the role.
Read the whole post
Hello Ninjas,
I am so excited to be sharing this news with you that I accepted the position as a Data Analyst at Amazon Canada last week 🎆. I will be working with the Inventory Control and Quality Assurance team to ensure data quality and integrity across Amazon products.
When I started this journey I was underconfident and did not know how to showcase my skills in the best way to stand out from the crowd. 💬
Now I know how to stand out in an interview to let the company know that I am the right fit for the role.
Here are some things that helped me:
- Giving as many mock interviews as possible (both technical and non-technical)
- Creating an Excel sheet with company values and preparing my stories that align with the values in the STAR method
- Talking to people on coffee chats from Amazon who work in the same domain
- Prepare the presentation about my elevator pitch for 5-6 minutes and present it as my introduction to the hiring manager (team lead)
- Practicing tough interview questions and also follow-up questions from that question
I want to thank @Ishank Tandon and @Bani Singh Bhoma for their support throughout the process and also for motivating me. I also want to thank all the Ninjas who are in this process for motivating me every single day to achieve better.💐
It has been my dream to be a part of big tech companies and this coaching not only helped me get a good job but get a job at my dream company.
Please feel free to reach out to me for any advice. Thank you, Ninjas!!!🙏
Big News: I Landed My Dream Job as a BDR!!!!!
when I first started coaching, I was only expecting a job offering around 50K. But now, I’ve been offered this role with a 77K OTE
Read the whole post
Hi Ninjas,
I’m absolutely thrilled to share some fantastic news – I’ve landed my dream role as a Business Development Representative at Bisco Industries, one of the top 7 mass distributors of electrical components and military-spec hardware! 🎉 After giving my all in the interview yesterday, I’m excited to say I successfully cracked it on my second attempt, and I couldn’t be more excited for this new chapter in my career. 🚀
What’s even more amazing is the fact that when I first started coaching, I was only expecting a job offering around 50K. But now, I’ve been offered this role with a 77K OTE and the added benefit of salary increments every 6 months. 💰 It’s such a huge step forward, and I’m honestly beyond words at how much things have turned around for me. 😲I was working in a restaurant for about 4-4.5 years. I even moved to a different province, hoping to get my PR but ended up failing miserably. I came back to BC and started doing Uber delivery full-time, unsure of what to do next in my life.But then, I joined this coaching and everything changed. The support, guidance, and mentorship I received helped me where I am standing today. 💪 I’ve even received my offer letter, and they were so impressed during the interview that they can’t wait for me to join as soon as possible! 🙌 I can’t thank you enough for everything, @Bani Singh Bhoma and @Ishank Tandon – this achievement is as much yours as it is mine.
A Small Win, A Big Lesson
Don’t wait for things to get urgent. Start early.
🦋On to Bigger & Better Things🦋

Hello All! It’s just feels so good to share my much long awaited news of extreme happiness with you all.
Moving on to the next step finally with my new dream job✨✨ Supply Chain Specialist role at Bombardier Aerospace♥️♥️
8 years of experience & immense skills from India made me confident that I would get the job easily & moved to Canada on Open WP with dreams of settling down. But reality hit me hard when I was getting interview calls from all great companies but was not able to clear any of them even though I was giving my 200%.
Then I came across @Ishank Tandon @Bani Singh Bhoma and joined Immigrant Ninja, from my first call itself I started seeing a mindset shift, converting failures into hopes of something better to being confident on interviews & negotiating the required salary. A Big Shukriya to the amazing mentors for those unsaid comforts given @Bani Singh Bhoma @Ishank Tandon 🙏 & to my fellow Ninjas who encouraged me throughout thick & thin. Those Stoicism talks, mindful learning’s , constant push and all success stories of our fellow Ninjas made me reach this beautiful dream job destination.
Beliefs, Hope & Consistency will ensure we bang our dreams coming amazingly true🤞🎉🥳🦋
From One day to Today - My journey❤️
I had left behind my IT and cybersecurity career in India with a dream of building my career here in Canada
Read the whole post
Hello Ninjas ! I am so happy and excited to finally share this with you all - I'll be joining as Security Engineer! 🔐
The journey wasn’t easy at all.
There were days when I honestly thought about not applying to jobs anymore. I can completely relate to each one of you because the job hunt can be daunting and, at times, exhausting.
What kept me going was seeing fellow ninjas share their stories, their mistakes, their learnings, and their wins. Every time I saw someone post about their success, I used to think, One day, I’ll be the one posting about my win. And today, I finally am.
There were many challenges along the way. I injured myself at work, which affected my health and required me to take couple of months off to rest. But even during that time, I didn’t want to stop. I used that time to upskill myself, work on certifications, and continue applying.
There were situations that held me back, but somewhere deep down, I always knew that this wasn’t the reason I came to Canada. I had left behind my IT and cybersecurity career in India with a dream of building my career here in Canada, and I didn’t want to give up on that dream.
Throughout this journey, my parents were my biggest support. They constantly encouraged me, motivated me, and reminded me to keep working toward my goal of landing a full-time cybersecurity role in Canada. I truly could not have done this without them. ❤️
A huge thank you to to Ishank and Bani, for building this community where everyone feels a sense of belonging and where ninjas genuinely support one another.🫶
@Ishank Tandon you have always given me honest feedback while helping me prepare for my elevator pitch and mock interviews. It really helped me learn how to communicate more naturally and confidently. I remember requesting mock interviews with you at the last minute two or three times, and you were always patient and helped me build my confidence.
@Bani Singh Bhoma , your help with tailoring my resume was a key part of my application process. You were always quick to review my assessment responses and answer my general interview questions during the Q&A sessions. I truly appreciate all the time and effort you put into helping me throughout my journey.
And I was able to go from 70k to now 120K
26 days and 159 job applications later - A WIN

After months of applications and interviews that didn't convert, I started questioning whether I was just repeating the same strategy.

I finally got a job in my own field of Digital Marketing.
When I came to Canada, I was clear about one thing—I wanted to build my career in marketing, no matter what.
The journey wasn't easy. I still remember attending a York University career fair, only to realize that most employers were hiring for skilled trades, which also decreased my morale of getting a marketing job. One company mentioned they were looking for marketing interns, but they expected applicants to have a portfolio. That one conversation pushed me to build one from scratch.
After months of applications and interviews that didn't convert, I started questioning whether I was just repeating the same strategy.
That's when I came across Immigrant Ninja.
The biggest takeaway for me wasn't just resume reviews or interview preparation—it was the mindset. I realized that growth comes from improving your approach, being open to change, and taking action instead of overthinking.
Today, I'm grateful not only for the opportunity I've received, but also for everything I learned throughout this journey.
A heartfelt thank you to Ishank, Bani, and the entire Immigrant Ninja community for the guidance, support, and accountability.
And to everyone who's still on this journey—keep believing in yourself and stay consistent. If anyone would like to connect or has questions about my experience, I'd be more than happy to help. Wishing you all the very best! ❤️
85k to 95k as was told by you and Bani in the video
The coaching and it's beauty explained!!!!
I have been active on LinkedIn for the past 8 years of my life and have never received a job opportunity message
Read the whole post
I recently joined the career coaching and have just completed with my LinkedIn restructuring and boom in 2 days I get a message regarding a job opportunity and a screening call request. I have been active on LinkedIn for the past 8 years of my life and have never received a job opportunity message even when I was actively searching and connecting with people. This instance has made my belief more concrete on the beauty of the coaching process and a small motivation to all to just follow the process and WE WILL MAKE IT BIG!!!
And the appreciation does not end here as I had a screening call and also an in person interview in the span of just 2 days and guess who acted as the hero for the preparation of in person interview? THE INTERVIEW NINJA BOOK!!! All the questions asked were from the 39 questions provided and just made me even laugh a bit in front of the interviewer which helped me hitting my nervousness out of the room. I am so motivated to have had this experience in just the Week 2 of my coaching and hoping for the best and more learnings and life altering experiences in the near future.
The Start of a Better and More Confident Tomorrow 🌟
This gave me a structure when I felt lost, guidance when I needed direction, and most importantly, belief in myself

A few months ago, I found myself at a pretty low point. Despite having solid experience in SaaS companies, my confidence had taken a hit, and I was losing hope of landing a meaningful job where I could truly be myself.
Fast forward to today, I’m beyond excited to share that I’ve accepted a role as a Customer Support Specialist at Clio, working from their Toronto office (yes, right next to the CN Tower—small wins matter too 🥳). For the first time in a while, I feel like I’m stepping into a space where my skills, experience, and voice truly matter.
What changed? I took a chance on myself and joined the Immigrant Ninjas. This gave me a structure when I felt lost, guidance when I needed direction, and most importantly, belief in myself when I had run out of it.
But this win isn’t just about a job. It’s about confidence restored, goals realigned, and a renewed sense of purpose. 😇
To @Ishank Tandon and @Bani Singh Bhoma —thank you for building a space where immigrants like me can dream again and take actionable steps toward those dreams.
To the fellow Ninjas—keep showing up, keep learning, and keep going. You’re not alone, and your breakthrough is coming.
Here’s to all of us chasing better tomorrows, with confidence. 🥂

From Self Doubt to Landing My Target Role 🇨🇦
But one thing I kept holding on to was what Ishank and Bani always say YOU JUST NEED A SINGLE YES.
Read the whole post
For a long time, I genuinely felt underconfident.
Even though I knew my skills were good, I still kept thinking maybe the gap in my career was the issue. Maybe the work permit was holding me back. Maybe I just won’t be able to crack roles here in Canada.
I had not given interviews for my target role in years, so somewhere I had convinced myself that it might be difficult for me now.
The job search phase was honestly tiring. Applying again and again and not hearing back can really mess with your confidence. But one thing I kept holding on to was what Ishank and Bani always say YOU JUST NEED A SINGLE YES.
And that stayed with me.
I used to see people from this community getting jobs and think, if they can do it, I can also figure it out. I just needed to stay consistent and trust the process.
It wasn’t perfect all the time. There were days I couldn’t do everything the way I wanted. But I still kept going and tried to put in effort wherever I could. Some days were better, some days weren’t, but I didn’t stop.
Every interview I got, I gave it my full effort.
And eventually, things worked out.
I’ve finally landed my target role in SEO 🇨🇦
If you are in a phase right now where things feel stuck, just keep going. I was there too. It will change eventually. Your win moment is either close or already on its way.
Really grateful to Ishank, Bani, Gaurav and the entire Immigrant Ninja community for all the support throughout this journey
Cracked the job in Cybersecurity
This coaching is the best investment that I have made in myself and I am sure the benefits will be lifelong.

Finally, the part-time days are over for me. I got a job as a DLP Analyst in Montreal. After getting the tips and tricks from this amazing coaching helped me to stand out be it resume, interview skills or the questions that we must ask an interviewer at the end. The interview book is just amazing. It has everything that a person needs to crack any job interview. The best thing is that the way a normal person would apply would be time-consuming but through the methods given by Ishank and Bani, the whole process was shortened. I got this job within a week(5 days exactly) of application and interview.
Just trust in the process and follow the tips given by Ishank and Bani. Each session was an opportunity to learn from my fellow ninjas and was truly inspiring.
I hope everyone gets the dream job that they are looking for. This coaching is the best investment that I have made in myself and I am sure the benefits will be lifelong.
I wanted to negotiate the salary upto 72k but the base salary that they offered is 83k

Reflecting on my recent journey, I initially took a deliberate pace to understand the frameworks and restart my job hunt. Over three weeks, I committed myself to consistent efforts, averaging 30+ iterations daily, whether through job postings or reaching out to connections on LinkedIn.
Last Monday, I woke up to 8 interview invitations in my inbox. TINY WINS, YAYY!
I'm really excited to be preparing for the interviews now, with Ishank's invaluable support in mock interviews, I'm hopeful for positive results in the coming weeks.
I've learned one just needs to keep putting in the efforts, consistently, one day at a time with your utmost honesty and there's no way it wouldn't bring results.
For anybody targeting or preparing for sales roles, HMU for a quick chat or anything you would want to ask or discuss!
Cheers!
Finally got field job🥰
What helped was Ishank's book, treated it like sacred. And the presentation hack worked like a charm.

Greetings everyone,
Hope everyone is doing great!!
Just wanted to post a small win of getting a job offer in tech sales. Joined with Ishank and Bani in July I guess but my job hunt was on and off all the time. The time I started applying jobs and outreaching rigorously daily (around 40 in total) was the time when my interview pipeline started getting built and got 2 offers in a span of 3-4 weeks. All I wanted to tell you anyone looking for job don’t lose hope and trust in the methods told by Ishank and Bani. Ishank’s book and Bani’s guidance with the resume helped way too much in the process. Can’t thank these guys enough! I owe these guys one. Also thanks to the community for being so positive got positivity whenever I opened this channel.
All the best ninjas.
Trust in the process and you’ll be there where you want to be.
All the best.

Beginning of my sales journey 🎉
The Vansh I knew wasn't this resilient, had a weak mindset, and blamed everything on circumstances.
Evidence is the only truth.
those three days helped me get a full time job even before graduating

I started with Ishank last year and it has certainly been a journey with lots of ups and downs . I went to NZ in 2019 thinking everything would be easy and sorted but news flash it wasn’t ( Lesson no 1 that Ishank taught me : Nothing will be easy ) I didn’t land a job flunked two subjects in my uni , reason being i was too busy blaming myself and not completing the learning loop. But then Canada happened and then i met Ishank .
Well long story short I attended the Imigrant Ninja Program wherein i was there with the man himself for 3 days and those three days helped me get a full time job even before graduating ( I’ll be graduating in Dec 2023) .
I have two major takeaways from this incident: 1) Evidence is the only truth , it’s the only thing that will give you motivation. 2) Always be eager to learn from the mistakes , complete the loop of learning from it and most importantly Listen to what your mentor says don’t let your ego take you down.
I have so much to say but I’m kinda overwhelmed at the moment because this evidence took long for me to recreate but i will complete the loop fam .

One morning at 3am I started crying. I didn’t want to go to my Tim Hortons shift. Deep down I knew something was wrong. So I left — and started applying everywhere. Today, I’ve accepted my first office job.
I was working night shifts. Back in India, I hadn’t told my family — I was scared of what they’d think. It’s been 6 months, and I’ve finally landed a job in my field. Now I can proudly tell my parents what I do.
I’d been following Ishank and Bani for the longest time. I wanted to join much sooner — but I kept telling myself I should give it my full try on my own first. That waiting dragged on… and quietly cost me over a year.
There were days I genuinely hated going in — but I still showed up. After every shift, I studied. I applied. I kept going while feeling stuck. Today I took my first step into IT. Progress doesn’t always look loud. Sometimes it’s quiet consistency when no one is watching.
It stung. But I needed it. I’d been wasting interviews and couldn’t see why — my ego wouldn’t let me. That one moment made me take real accountability. Months later, I finally started my first proper sales role.
Applications, cold emails, follow-ups, rejections — it was exhausting. But I held onto what Ishank and Bani said: you don’t need answers from 100 people, just one that truly matters. I kept reaching out. Finally, that one response came through.
When HR called to say I got the job, I couldn’t even stand. I just cried and thanked God. After more than 200 applications, this wasn’t just a job to me — it was an emotion. I prayed for this every single day.
After my second layoff, I had two choices: stay stuck, or come back stronger. Setbacks don’t define you — your comeback does. I’ve bounced back twice now. If I can do it, you can too.
It’s not just about losing a job — it’s the overthinking, the self-doubt, figuring out what’s next all over again. There were moments it felt exhausting. But somewhere in between, I kept going. A month after my last layoff, I landed my new role.
I thought I was being smarter by doing things my own way, outside the process. I was wrong — it cost me two interviews. Ishank called me out in a mock, and I’m glad I fixed it early. Follow the process. Don’t shortcut it.
I started posting consistently about my work and my wins — not looking for a job. Then a recruiter reached out for a director-level role and moved me straight past the usual HR and manager layers. I wasn’t trying to convince them to hire me. I was deciding whether I wanted them.
I was honestly about to lose hope and decided to take a break from job applications for a while. Today I put all my effort into tailoring my resume and applied to just two jobs. To my surprise, only 20 minutes later, I received a call.
From someone who lost an offer after writing just the first short and sweet email to negotiate — thank God they rescinded it, that is all I can say now — to recently accepting an offer with an awesome company and a manager who realizes the value I bring. And did I say 60% above the base.
