It feels awesome to write a new post in my blog after a really long break.
One fine Monday morning as i was reading "Education Plus" which comes along with every monday issue of "The Hindu", i came across this ad from NUS (National University of Singapore).
I was working with TCS at that time and this ad is actually a "call-for" for all experienced IT professionals to pursue M.Tech in either Software Engineering or Knowledge Engineering in Institute of Systems Science (ISS), a subsidiary organisation of NUS which functions independently.
They asked us to come for an overview session about the course on a sunday morning at a 5 star hotel in T.Nagar, followed by which we had entrance exam for the above courses in the same hotel.
I attended the exam. To put it in black and white, i am not at all satisfied with my performance. The list of selected candidates for interview was released at the same night around 9:00p.m. I remember every moment of it, the nervousness i had was unforgettable.
I was expecting a positive outcome very much because, i took a whole week leave from TCS to prepare for this entrance exam. I cracked the exam. I had interview within the next three days.
My sister who was in India helped me in preparing my SOP. I performed well in the interview. By God's grace, i got the offer letter from NUS ISS to pursue M.Tech in Software Engineering within the next month.
On October-2-2012, i resigned my job with TCS.
I was eagerly preparing myself to live a happy life in Singapore.
Thus the Singapore era began in my life.
