It seems as if it was just yesterday when I got an e-mail from HR briefing the interview procedure and me confused on that e-mail gathered all my courage to revert back to HR and asked if I am called for the interview. On receiving confirmation, it was like opening an unexpected door. In my full excitement and with all preparations, I reached Fiserv to appear for interview. Interview process was quite cumbersome and I could recall my bad reaction when I was told that there is still one more round pending. Yes, you guessed it right!! I got irritated and made faces. This good news was passed to me by the person who took my first technical round and luckily I could not hide my reactions from him :) :) :) for doing this, fortunately every fortnight I am made to recall that incident grrrrrr!!
Now some you might think why am I being made to bring that exciting incident back in my mind and who is that brave person to do so. This person is none another than my TEAM LEAD and the same guy who took my technical and informed me about that one more round Just for fun and with the motive of teasing me, he would just not miss the opportunity to remember this incident and I would not miss opportunity to defend myself although I fail whenever I try to do so
After my joining, as expected from a new joiner I was nervous and in panic!! I had certain standards set up for me and expectations from myself and every day, it seemed to be a fight to come up to those expectations and standards. I could remember my training sessions where I expected to learn about product and every time I used to end up with just lots and lots of yawns in my full spirits
I remember, once even I slept in the mid of training and when I woke up I started nodding my head so that the trainer could not see my sleepy eyes and yawning face :P
Confused and anxious me, in initial days didn’t know what to talk, when to talk and to whom to talk. I was badly missing my breakfast chit chats, gossips, long long irrelevant senseless discussions. I felt as if I had to behave like any two year experienced serious professional who has lots of knowledge to share with new team. Eyes of team of 10 members + 1 manager were always on me as if I was the only prey for them. Every evening, before leaving for the day I used to have killing session with my then manager. It was like ending up with a test where you know all the questions but when it comes to answers you try to cheat. And guess what, cheat from other’s copies who are equally dumb as you are..he he !!
By God!! Those sessions with manager still make me get goose bumps. Excitement of the whole day used to get over with very first question. I felt to be back in college. To answers utmost one question, I started making notes. Imagine, me making notes!! Goshhhh..
At that time, I experienced some unwanted changes in me like reaching office on time, wearing formals, talking less, listening more, just smiling instead of showing baring teeth. I missed my personality soooooooo much.
Now, its been ONE year..!! yes ONE year of my association with Fiserv. I have almost changed. Changed my chatting habits, changed my dressing style, changed my party style..almost every trait of my persona has changed and I am just not liking it !!
To begin with, I want you all to know a major unexpected change.. My team lead is my best buddy now and I hate the fact that I am friends with my ‘lead’.. he he !! ab masti karte hue bhi lagta hai k ‘masti’ task k against kitna time report karna h time sheet me :P Breaks me feel hota h k coffee productive work me kaise count karani h :P mere PJs k liye GPS me kitna score milega ?? he he..!!
Its funny!! But this is the best part of my relationship with Fiserv.
Here go some more unexpected changes
1. I can never be seen in formals, my jeans seems to be best
2. I can never be seen quietly sitting on my desk
3. Chai after office is an unavoidable task
4. Masti with Soni ( I hope u remember him, I introduced him in my previous write up) is an essential part of office hours :P
5. Giggling and cracking PJs are one of the productive things that I unforgettably do :P
6. I have started doing gunda-gardi
7. I have started playing pranks ;)
8. Oh!! Not to forget..i have started adding a ;) at the end of messages :P this is my most significant achievement :D
Now, you can expect how considerably I have changed rather improved my hidden talent :P
Thanks Fiserv!! Whole heartedly THANK YOU !!
I remember, when I joined my target was to spend two years in Fiserv and then move on. But, now I just did not feel like thinking of any other option. It seems to be best. Best experience, best thought, best wish..everything appears to have wrapped up here.
Somehow, I am experiencing heights of dosti, heights of appreciation, heights of stupidity, heights of pagalpanti, heights of everything
It seems that, yes!! This was something for which I have been looking for all these years. Interesting work.. mad frnz who plan every weekend to visit psychiatrist :P gunda gardi..mara peeti..teasing..fighting..argue at every topic yet YADI BESTEST of YADI..!!
With all this is in heart and dosts in mind, I wish to spend many more coming years here in Fiserv but of course with them.
NO frnz NO Fiserv !!
