So I was part of Tata Communication Transformation Services and there was a project lead there. So I recently transformed to a new organization FIS as a project manager now. So actually I've started this PMP Pro course in 2020 November. So we have completed the course in 2020 December itself. But I was unable to complete the examination. I was preparing actually up to. I think up to March I was preparing for the examination but then due to some personal commitments and I was not able to complete the examination again. I was again restarting it in. In May month and again it was dropping and again it was going up to July and then I was still dropping the plan of taking examination. But then I got an got a message from one of your sales teams that restart your pmp. That is I think the first time the hackathon was started in. But then so I enrolled myself. I thought we shall give a shot and whatever it takes I have to complete the examination. So I started in September. I was actually bit slow. It was supposed to. I was supposed to take up the examination in November itself. But then it has taken again because of some official work. You know, I was not able to concentrate more on taking up the examination. I was not able to farewell because of which I was not able to get the conversation. Sorry, that confidence in me that I have to take the take of the examination. But still I have the desire to take up the examination. But I was lacking the con confidence. So again I had a chat with you again when I. When I was preparing for the examination I had a chat with you and you have gave me confidence that it's all okay so leave the past and you asked me to concentrate on the future. Let's. Let's take up the examination. I still remember when I joined that introductory session on that restart your PMP hackathon. So I got a. Like I still remember the verse that you said that you have promised us to make a pmp. So that's what you are going to do. That's what you're going to do. So I still. I was still having that in my mind and that was boosting me up. And then so from I think by end of October I started to push myself and I started to have the clear shot that I have to take up the examination by end of December or by first week of January. So that's it. I think by first week of. I think second of January I completed my preparation. I thought I spoke to you and you have given me that gold back and everything. It was starting from there. I started to get my confidence there. And it was increasing day by day every time I complete my mock examination. So I used to speak to you and used to give the confidence and that's how it started. So the preparation like I did not do anything other than the instruction that you have given. So I did not do anything other than the instructions that you have given. So it was. It was. It was everything that I followed your footsteps, footprints and that's what it worked for me. Even for the future aspirants who want to take up the PMP examination, I would suggest them to blindly hand them over to yourself. So you will take care. I think that's what I have. I've learned from this journey. Pmp. Pmp.
Thank you. Thank you Bhushan. Thank you for sharing that. And I. You said you joined in 2020. Okay. And in the last one one year plus no, you would have been seeing the transformation in the content. Whatever we. We built up.
Yes.
So how do you see that? Okay. Is it in line with sufficient to take care of exam or something else we supposed to add?
Actually sir, what I feel is like the road to project success and the isle are the key, sir. Actually. So if you follow the road to project success preparation materials and wrote the ICLEAF questions. Actually I was still having doubt until I take. I took that mock examination. So after taking up the examination, the real PMP examination, I felt the ICLEF questions are a bit difficult compared to the real PMP examination questions. So if you take up the gold pack and another IC league question seriously, you'll be able to crack up the. Crack the examination, sir, with flying colors. Because I was not expecting. Actually I've completed the PNB examination with above target and all the domains. So I wasn't actually expecting it. I was expecting on target. So it was. It was a bit surprised actually. So the reason behind the success of having the topic, all the knowledge in all the domains where is because of the ICLE questions.
So is it hackathon videos and other things are sufficient to go for this exam, IC Leaf and road to project success or anything we missed in the content?
No, I don't think you have missed actually. So initially when I. When I was taking up the courses, you know, I was up to April, I was reading the books actually. So I was actually I was. I'm not good in reading. I'm bit slow learner when it comes to reading books actually. So after taking up, after enrolling myself into the hackathon, I did not read any books actually. So I was listening to your. Listening your audios and videos. I was during your videos and then I was preparing them. I mean I was going through that. The PPTs that you. That you use when you give us the video. So then I used to take up that immediately. I used to take up that Icy League questions and that's it. So that, that's how I prepared. So this is my preparation method, sir. So everything was your videos and your PPT and the ICLEF mock exams. Very good.
And so what did you learn in this one year journey? Okay. When you want to take this exam and you got a lot of hurdles and again you bounced back and. And then now you successfully finish it.
Okay.
So what did you learn in this journey?
So never give up, sir. So that's what I would say because as a mentor you. You. You said that. You said that in that introductory session that you have promised us that you will make. Make us pmp. So you are. You are not giving up on that promise. So at least we are deciding we are aspiring to become a pmp. So when the mentor is putting that much effort at least when you have that inspiration you have to inspire from that mentor. At least you have to get some input and we have to make some effort. At least. At least the 50% of the effort that you make. If we make that 50%, we'll be able to complete that PMP sir. So never give up sir. That's what. That is the key, sir. I still remember the way you said how you promised us and I still remember that sir. So it is. It is still inspiring us. So thank you for that sir. Because if you were not that committed, no, I'll not be able to. I would not be a PMP now. So the credit solve goes to you sir. So thank you so much.
Thank you. Thank you for acknowledging Bhushan and all goes to my, my team and they are behind that. Thanks for acknowledging it. And finally what do you want to say to the PMP aspirants?
Okay, so PMP aspirants as well as the people who are still searching for a good training center. I tell them that the one thing that makes info carrier different and better from other training students that have you. You guys are having the group of people like hand holding the people. So I've completed the training in. In the month of December. So till then after that also your sales team will be pitching in and asking me where. Where am I at in the level of preparation. So that level of commitment, I don't think the other Centers are providing and, and the one more thing is like the hackathon. So just because you have committed to make people to become pmp. So it is, you're, you're going beyond the expectations. So it doesn't, you don't need to schedule the hackathon session. You just need to text me a. Text us and tell us that okay, go and prepare for the examination. It is not that difficult and you can give that motivation speech and all. But going beyond the level of the requirement, you know you have, you've taken one step ahead and scheduled that hackathon sessions and you're still having the hackathon sessions to the people who are trying to take up the examination. So this is, I feel this thing makes Info Career over other, other training centers. So I from the bottom of my heart I really wanted to thank you and Info Career team. So this is actually extraordinary, sir. So that's I would say to the future aspirants and the people who are looking for a training centers and so I think they can offer training in Info Carrier and the level of push that we get from Info Carrier is enormous. So that has made us people like me where we are now. So it's extraordinary sir. So sure.
Thank you. And so as you said the last one week preparation is very critical and so thanks for trusting us and continuously following whatever we just said it and as well as once you've taken the exam and when you see the congratulation on the screen. Okay, so that's.
Yes.
How was that experience? And when you saw above target in all of them. Okay, so how was that experience?
Actually so when I've completed, when I've completed all the, all the questions. So I was having about 53, 53 minutes remaining for me. So I was just, I had a doubt because I was just thinking if I, if I attended all the questions at all. So because I was having 53 minutes remaining because whenever I used to learn from the people who have taken the examination they used to say that the time is, timing is, time management is very difficult. But then I was having 53 minutes and I completed 180 questions. So I was having the doubt and I thought okay, let's we have 53 minutes. Let's see if we can revise the questions and see if there is something which I've done something incorrectly. So I want to go back to the last part of the questions from 121 question number 121. And I, I was like traversing through the questions about, for about four questions and I could not find anything wrong. So I could not find other answers. The one which I've selected initially. So I thought okay, let's see. I think I've given enough preparation and I think I've given my hard work. Okay, let's. Let's submit the examination. I given that and once I've submitted. Once I completed that one 28th question and given the submit it was loading and my heart was pumping up. So. And I think within three to four seconds, you know like it just popped up like saying that. Dear Bush, Nam, congratulations on earning PMP credentials. So I could not express in my how happy I really was. So it was really fantastic to know that. And I thought okay, I have to share this for this news to JLSR first. So. So that's the reason as soon as I come, come, come out from center taken took the phone and called you. Called you and you have told me that without surprise you said that okay, I know you'll be achieving this feat. So okay, this is because you already know. Because you will be knowing who can with the level of preparation they have done and the level of scores that they've got. You know already that okay, this guy can take up the examination. He'll be able to clear it. So because I was surprised because I passed the examination but you had no surprise at all. Because you know very well that okay, this guy is going to take up the examination and clear it and with flying colors. So that's how. That's the level of trust people are having on you sir. So thank you so much on that sir. I can't thank you enough. Anyways, thank you.
Thank you Bhushan. Thank you for sharing your experience and thanks for joining this call. And please convey our wishes to your family members also. And without their support reaching this goal will not be sufficient. It not be possible. And on the behalf of entire info career team once again we congratulate you.
