Loading... Born a day after the American Independence in Jalandhar, Punjab, India, I've spent most part of my life there. Studied till 5th standard in St. Joseph's Convent School, Jalandhar, and later had to join Apeejay School, Jalandhar as, perhaps, the former school decided boys could be troublesome in a girls' school after 5th. After completing schooling in APJ (till 12th), joined National Institute of Technology [NITJ] (again, in Jalandhar) as a Computer Science & Engineering student in 2005. During the worst period of downtime (recession), got an on-campus placement in Accenture in 2008. Graduating from college took another year after that, and finally joined Accenture in mid-2009. This is my story so far... Btw, you can find me at: facebook twitter last.fm digg librarything granular

The placement season is on in my college and three companies for computer students have visited as of yet, viz., TCS, Accenture and Wipro, in that order. All three of them are IT giants, both nationally and globally, so the choice of company was not too important, but still I chose to go with Accenture. Also, as the IT industry is facing recession, it affected the total number of students picked from our college, which declined to almost half the previous year’s value.

The selection process was a 4-stage process:

  1. Written test (English + Quantative Aptitude + Logical Reasoning)
  2. Group Discussion [GD]
  3. HR Interview
  4. Technical Interview

Since quite some days now, I was thinking of putting up the photos on my blog that I click using my cameras. This was to show off some hidden photographic skills that peacefully reside within me (yup, I am not joking; I do feel that I would have proved a nice photographer).

On Googling a bit, I found an excellent “gallery” plugin for WordPress. It’s called NextGEN Gallery. Now this plugin is seriously powerful, and although I had some small issues with it, it was good enough to get me started on adding my clicked images.

You can see thumbnails of some images from my collection below. I either use my 7.2 MP Sony CyberShot DSC W80 camera or the 2.0 MP built-in camera in my Nokia N70 phone.
