Dealing with the pangs of losing his father to Tuberculosis was a nightmare for a 22 year old Ankur who lived in Lucknow, with his mother and two young sisters. There was no income flow in the family owing to his father’s untimely death, and subsequent debts leading the family to a harsh reality check of shifting back to their ancestral home in Varanasi with financial aid from their relatives.
Leaving his mother and sisters in Varanasi relying on the extended financial support from his cousins, Ankur transferred to Noida looking for employment opportunities in 2019. What followed next was painstaking for the young man! Underpaid job-offers, interview-rejections and a constant call-back from home – made Ankur suffer from acute depression for almost four months. At this pace, his friends recommended Anidip’s Cisco Certified Network Associate course, which promised him Network engineering, routing, switching, hardware skills training along with communication, soft skills and aptitude proficiencies. On the other hand, learning became an obstacle when his family forced him to come back hearing that he has no job in hand. After much coaxing, Ankur managed to convince them with an assurance of Anudip’s 100% placement support after completion of his courses. Debts however increased for Ankur, since he had no income and survived mostly by borrowing from friends in the new city. Back home he knew, his mother and sisters were depending on relatives and aids from friends and family.
Leaving no stones unturned, Ankur focus on his skill training, and in no time his skills enabled him to resolve or troubleshoot all kinds of hardware and software issues in smart laptops and desktops. Post completing his assessments, Anudip helped with job interviews in the hardware domain. Today, Ankur works as a Desktop L1 engineer at Coforge Limited in Noida a leading global IT solutions organization. He earns 15,000 per month and enjoys company perks and other benefits. Within few months, his hard work and dedication became noteworthy at office, gaining him a cash incentive of Rs.1, 00,000 and appreciation from his company CEO for his selfless service during the time of lockdown.
It took him almost nine months to drive this change challenging the odds. Ankur has been clearing debts one at a time, since the time he has got the job. His persistence and grit in the crisis have made him even stronger than before. Over the next few months, he is planning to bring his family to Noida, the city which helped him get back to composure. Recalling two years back, Ankur emphasizes, “It was tough to live with increasing debts and financial-dependency from extended family. It was harder to even sit without earning and hear employer-rejections. ANUDIP has been a helping hand since then. This hand is all what I needed. This is the hand, many, like me would need”
