My Strategy for a new Job Hunt
More than 35 years ago I was blacklisted from jobs in Mumbai. Also my family took my being sacked from an earlier job very badly and put a lot of pressure on me to find employment. I did not understand the intentions of high society which was to teach me a lesson and hound me […]
