TAS II

so i didn't get in then... well bygones...

but i must say that the process was extremely anal retentive and quite non transparent... also for a group thats almost gone hoarse harping on and on about loyalty and group vision and the tata way and all that brianwahsing they do to you up at tmtc... 17 direct recruits and 3 internal ones.. seems hypocritical or that someone's not thinkin straight at tas...

either way... i did get loads of attention and wishes and 'there r other things for u out there' sms's.. all very sweet..

so im off to delhi then... for about a week to clear my head and get some perspective on my 'still floundering and non-adrenalised' career... i think i'm about ready to start pluggin in some 18hr days now for someone who's willing to pay me bundles of money...

more later...

tata administrative services...

hmmm... yes well i do realise its been a long haitus, but you see, i was busy, tied down and i was having nervous breakdowns... so let me update you... i have just finished the long and ardous process of applying for the tata administrative services in the hope of giving my floundering career and mental boredom a helluva adrenaline shot... its basically an in house grooming program for tata employees that identifies 'group resources' and puts you on the fast track for senior management... its the golden ticket baybee.. at least in the tata group...
so appraisals and gmats and one very long ass application form.. which included four essays and a statement of purpose... later.. and two very distinct and very attention soaking nervous breakdowns later.. im all done... now all i have to do is.. oh yeah.. get in...
easier said than done... have what appears to be a very scary 'assessment centre' for two days on 24/25 of this month in front of bombay house bigwigs...
oh and also... i'm still working for taj yeah.. none of my clients give a mickey mouse shit in hell what im applying for and expect prompt reverts and complete efficiency.. so its been busy.

have to also mention that it's found a friend for life.. one supposes.. darling of a child... very snooty, egoistic, vain and anal retentive about most things.. twin...

'my statement of purpose is to effect meaningful change'
