Job search in Madurai

Along with my friend jeyakumar(school) i went to madurai for searching a job. i have attend one interview in a software company in madurai one month before and i got placed in tat comp ... eventhough the company(AJ square) is big in size the package is very low... itz two thousand ruppees per month... at tat time i earned two thousand and five hundred in my native place... next month tey announced a increment of five thousand to me... so i neglect tat offer...

These are the things tat came into my mind wen we travel in train towards madurai.... The companies planned to attend is dci, ca infotech... soon after reaching madurai we first went to dci...itz in anna nagar....we entered into reception and we r asked to wait down till the HR comes.... after five min a lady Hr entered into the room and she asked fr our resumes.... we handed it to her .. after seeing tat she askes only two ques wat domain u want to work and wat s ur xpected salary??? i said the domain is java and salary is five to seven thousand....


Then she said.. right now there s no vacancies for freshers...anyhow i considered u in future... with tis reply we got disappointed... i said we called u yesterday and i clearly said tat is there any walk in for freshers.... u only gave a positive reply for tat.. tatz y we r here... she replied many ppl are calling and ask whether is there any interview process... Tatz y we said tat u come directly to the office and get information reg abt the openings......


We get disappointed and moved away from tat place.... so next place is ca infotech... we started to move to bus stop.... suddenly we saw a board named STC technologies... itz a training center for testing... it states the office is in fourh floor... all the three floors are of stationary shops... (Mind voice:yedho thappu nadaka pora madhiri theriyuthe... summa board vachurukkangalo) ... on entering tat floor one person asked me to sign the note before get entered into office. I turn up the prev pages of the note and finally got tat we r the first persons entering into tat company apart from four teaching staffs. No one is there for studying at tat time. A person named Mr.Ramanujam greeted us and asked us to sit. we asked is there any job openings here... then he enquired abt us... Actually he studied commerce and he worked in accenture in a contract basis for two years ..with tat experience he become the manager of tat comp.... he reclaim the past ... he also suffered a lot in getting a job in the early days wen he completed his course.. he note down all the inf from us and promised to inform if there s any vacancies available in madurai.... I liked his good nature of helping others and i feel so much for not telling the truth as i am placed in a company... But i console myself tat now really i am looking fr a job... let i will inform abt the truth on the day wen my company calls me...


ok next we came the story of ca infotech... like vettaiyadu vilaiyaadhu... we entered into a village ask details from various persons.... it is on the way to nattam in the SH highway... atlast with several ppl guidance we finally found out tat it is like a mini Mani India Technology(Mani india is the software company in kovilpatti... in tat only i worked for four months)..... The home is turned into an office... only fifteen to twenty ppl is working there... a man in the gate asked the reason for coming there... i replied we r coming fr an interview.... without opening the door he went inside to inform the HR... at tat moment the time is one p.m ... we are standing in road for five mins... At tat time only a grandma came outside from the house... she enquired us... we tell the reason.... she replied" yedhupatha paiya, ippadiya veetukku vandha pullaikalla velila nikka vache pesuradhu, neenga vaanga pa ulla...." she gave water fr our thirsy... her affection moulds us.... then a person come and introduced to us as HR... still i cant believe he is a HR... no proper reply from him... he asked to sit inside and went away for twenty minutes.... jeya kumar said machi theriyama inga vandhu maatikittom da... ippadi ye escape aakidhuvoam... i replied machi idhuvum oru stress interview thaan da... salary yevvalavu nu keppom... two thousand naalum ok nu solluvoom aduku keela sonnana thittiruvaom nu....


after five mins he come to us and picked to the CEO of the office.... He asks some questions related to the experience in the previous comp... then finally he said we want ppl with exp of atleat one year... so please come here after getting good xperience... then i asked wat is ur payscale for the one year xperienced guy.... he not answer fr the ques and only repeated the same diag for a person with talents, definitely there should be hike.... we got frustated and wen returning back we nquired abt the office... A low wages is given to tat ppl also....

Finally we got a nice xperience in the madurai trip
