Rejected 50 times before I landed Adobe—here's what kept me going. I got turned down for a BDR position at Salesforce. I couldn’t move past the 2nd round for LinkedIn. 50 more failed interviews. Then Adobe happened. Every rejection stung but I kept knocking the door again and again and again. That meant pushing myself everyday. I made notes of all my interview questions and even the answers I gave. So that I can learn. Avoid mistakes. Refine my answers better. To believe that something good is waiting to happen. By the time Adobe interviews got scheduled, I was so much more confident. Rest 10% was luck. Resilience. Self-Belief, Learning from every No – 3 pillars of success. My lifelines. To anyone reading this, trust yourself and your abilities. Where you see yourself in 5 years will be defined by what you do NOW. Don’t’ stop trying. Whether you crack Google or a startup, something amazing awaits. Only if you keep trying. #career #management #interview #adobe #salesforce #linkedIn

Want a referral? Don't make these 3 mistakes 🔻 🚫 Generic requests: Asking, "Can you refer me to Google?" without any personalization or context. Be specific about why you’re a good fit. 🚫 Missing contact info: Not including your LinkedIn profile or phone number on your resume. Recruiters often prefer to call, and without this info, you might miss out. 🚫 Typos: Simple errors on your resume can make you seem less detail-oriented, which is a red flag for recruiters. When you ask for a referral, you're asking me to vouch for you. Make it easy by proving you're not just qualified, but also someone I'd want on my team. Don't rely solely on referrals—focus on building skills that make you stand out. Platforms like Preplaced offer mentorship to help with upskilling, interview prep, and quality referrals. If you're not getting responses, give it a try! Book a free session here: https://lnkd.in/dp93jJ6D You can utilize their network to get quality referrals. They have referred and helped people crack companies like Salesforce, Target, Accenture, Microsoft, Nagarro, HSBC and more. 💫 #referraltips #referrals #collab #preplacedcollab #hiring #jobsearch #referralmistakes

Dear LinkedIn Community, I recently shared that I decided to leave Microsoft to pursue a new opportunity. In my search for the next step in my career, I focused on several key criteria: company culture, the enthusiasm and spirit of the people, market position, and most importantly, opportunities for growth and learning. Another crucial factor was finding a role where I could make a significant impact. Given these prerequisites, the list of potential companies was quite selective, but one stood out. I am thrilled to announce that, starting December 2nd, I will be joining ServiceNow and will be leading the Strategic Engagements for APAC, based out of Singapore. ServiceNow is a company I have closely observed over the years. It is a powerful platform provider which will become the defining enterprise software company of the 21th century #DESCO21C. ServiceNow helps organizations drive growth, reduce costs, and manage risk by connecting and automating workflows across various departments. The NOW Platform acts as a “System of Action” that integrates seamlessly with existing data and systems, enabling efficient processes without the need for system replacements. It leverages AI and automation to modernize manual processes, streamline workflows, and enhance productivity. This includes solutions for IT operations, customer service, HR, finance, and more. ServiceNow not only offers low-code tools that allow organizations to quickly scale and adapt to changing needs, but also improves both employee and customer experiences by providing intuitive interfaces and tools that empower users to get what they need when they need it. Essentially, ServiceNow puts AI to work in a rapid and cost-effective way. I want to extend my heartfelt thanks to Per Alm, Sirali Kewalramani, Detlef Krause, and William Foley for the insightful discussions during the hiring process. You truly ignited a fire in me, and I can’t wait to start in December. ##desco21C,  #nowisthetime, #cannotwait
