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

Thought of the day

Blogging No Comments »

Saw this today as “Quote of the day” on my office’s notice board.

The best way to succeed in life is to act on the advice we give to others.

That’s 100% right, Mr. Anonymous. Very well said.

So, that was about the quote.

  • I recently got an Internet connection at my place, in Gurgaon; it’s a BSNL EV-DO based connection. Quite happy with it for now.
  • Got rid of 1185 spam comments today. Had to go through each one of them to spot out genuine ones stuck there.
  • Today, finally, Microsoft certifications lost my trust. On doing MCTS and MCP, all by myself, I felt very proud. But on looking around in the office, I found out that anybody can clear these certifications given they have proper dumps for that. Now that really hurt me.

.NET at Accenture

Blogging, programming 11 Comments »

Since I landed in Bangalore, my schedule has been extremely busy. Yeah, I had heard in the past that the training period in an IT company, especially Accenture, is very tough, I am experiencing it only now. I have yet to take out some time to go out and explore that grand city that is Bangalore. Most of my time everyday is spent preparing for in-training tests. But anyway, the first phase of my training ends today, the last test of first phase being on 28th Sept.

A ray of hope in my frustrating daily schedule has to be me getting .NET stream, that is, I would be doing my second (and final) phase of training on Microsoft .NET technologies, and eventually be getting projects based on it. I am curious to begin my stream training, more because my stream is more web-development oriented (yippie!). By the way, it would be ASP.NET + C#.

That’s all for now. I’ll try to keep my blog as updated as possible.
