Okay. Even though some of the people say my portfolio is not ready, I ask them, just take your one day project. Take your one week project start. The more and more you're delaying, the more and more you're losing. Okay? So it's not like these people are perfect. Perfect. They will become perfect on the go. You need to create something before you leave. Okay? We all died two times. You know when 99% of the people have changed their complete fang bang companies after they come on a one to one. Okay, I'll just show you a simple example what we have, what we have really planned. Okay? So this will be something which will be very new for all of the people. I want every single one of you to go through this. Okay? See, I'm just showing you a small concept what we have created, okay? We just want to create something like this example. Okay? We want to create like a Netflix channel for you. So those of you are coming into this web page, you should feel more engaged. We're going to put real world UX case studies. We're going to put where exactly designers are lagging and what exactly is the podcast which I've created. And more importantly, you're also going to get the trends. What is happening in the AI and UX thinking models. You're going to get a trending episode for you. How many of you are really liking this concept? I'm going to launch this. Wait, it's still there in the construction. Okay. Apart from building a templated portfolio, what many people are doing in the outside public by learning in courses. I wanted you guys to build something next future for the humanity. And more importantly, I think I've already told you this. We are building something called futuristic squadron. Okay. And futuristic project as well. Okay, I've already picked one project. Once you start doing it, I will let you know. Okay? So this particular futuristic hackathon project will be given to the people who don't have that job pressure in their mind. Many people are joining this program with job pressure. Because I want job in 90 days for you. This is not available. You participate in the normal project, you complete this, no problem, get certificate, get job, all the best. But I wanted people to be here who are really not worried about that, who are focusing only on innovation. Site is ready. I made them write literally 25 to 27 questions about your story, about your past, about your achievements, you know, something called reality check sheet. I ask you to do it before you meet me on one to one entire reality check sheet. We uploaded in the lovable and then we have created a personal achievement, personal story, personal branding and everything we did, okay, we started from 5:45 or 5:50. We went till 10:30 and after two hours also many people reiterated using the prompts. We did 100 prompts, 100 credits on that day. Everybody brought their branded pictures, Everybody brought their photoshoot, studio of pictures and videos. Some of the people recorded their videos then and there. Some of the people added their high quality images and also they purchased the domain in Namecheap and GoDaddy and it's thousand rupees. Okay? And many people have got the lovable credits directly from the vendor on that day. 100 credits, everything. We did it in one day. All of you type crazy in the chat box. How many of you wanted this? Kind of a fast track action. Guys, I'm telling you please come into the squadrons as soon as possible. The more and more you're delaying, the more and more you're losing. Okay? So it's not like these people are perfect. Perfect. They will become perfect on the go. Okay? Even though some of the people say jagdish, my portfolio is not ready, I asked them just take your one day project, take your one week project. Start start applying for the job. Many people have started getting interview calls. One girl got the offer itself. All of you type crazy in the chat box. Like people are getting bulk offers because I'm asking them to apply for bulk on the Sunday using this website. We all applied for 350 plus jobs. Right now it's more than 400 and that particular day 292 or 300. Close to 300 we did. Before EOD. If you wanted to understand their requirement, the first important thing which the corporate industries are requiring is your leadership skills and your cultural fit. Okay? Your design skills come second. First they will understand your leadership skills and how do you fit their culture. If you're going for a startup studio, this kind of requirements will not be there. Okay? If you're going for a service company, 3 LPA, 4 LPA, they will look for your visuals faster. If you're going for 8 to 10 LPA, they will look for your problem solving ability. Like let's say if it's a service level company, if you're going for a growing product companies more than 1520 LP. If you're targeting, people will look for your authenticity in your thinking process. How exactly you can solve the problem without even any methods how good you are in design process. If you're looking for 30 LP and more, people look for your leadership skills. People look for Your cultural fit. So when you have to really improve your research skills, you got to practice this thing called Daily ux. How many of you don't know this? Daily UX means every single day you need to take one product. Like let's say you take this, okay, you take this example. Daily ux. What does mean by Daily ux? Daily UX means you have to take this particular product. You have to think why this person has created this kind of a handle for the blade. Why this is in the alternate black and white color. Why there is a grip available here? Oh, this is for holding while we are cutting. You need a grip. Oh, okay. And why this blade is having lines? Oh, this blade can be broken. And this can be used to be the resharpening. And why there is a edge over here? Because you can take this blade and you can break this. How many of you don't know this? And why there is a handle here? We can put it in pocket. And why this is looking here bulk and here little small. Because people need grip. People need handle ergonomic comfort. Wow. This much of things is there. And why this is having a little AXA frame here. Because this is to have a little knurling surface. And why particularly it is not having any sharp edge? Because this is not to spoil you. And why the interactions is completely like this. It can be used in two hands or not? Yes, it can be used in two hands. See interaction and how I feel when I am moving the blade. See there is an exact smooth mechanism available here. You get that sound, right? This is a visual. It is an auditory feedback for you that the blade is coming out so that you will not get your hands cut. This is called Daily ux. So what happens is people who come into this one to one first of all, during the one to one process itself, they completely get transformed. They really find out their goal. This I'm just doing it to impress other people. This is not my real goal. You change that, right? And when you prepare for one to one, you do valid determination, you come to know your real value in your life. Once you do one day, one week project, you find out your little strength. Also once you go through all the basic models of power of one and when you complete that project, you will come to know Jagdish. This is where my strength is there. And once you find out your niche, you find out this Fang manga companies are no way aligned to you. 99% of the people have changed their complete fang bank companies after they come on a one to one what is happening in the industry? Where is the gap available? Once you understand where is the industry trend going? Forrester, Crunchbase, Statista. All these platforms are very, very important. This is where you find out the hidden market. The next two to three years, which industries are going to go boom. Once you find out that gap, then you build projects around it. That is called hyper hackathons. Once you build hyper hackathons, then you can create a brand out of it. Then you can create a project and a portfolio and a website out of it. Then automatically leadership positions will come to you. You are now moving from an individual contributor into a leader path of a designer. 15 days you are going to prepare this journey. You will complete getting started. Whether you're a silver or a Gold member. 15 days you initially take to get synchronized in this cycle. Because this is a difficult cycle to start. Next 15 days you will come and participate in hackathons. You. Your skill will started improving. You will come to know whatever you learned. It's completely. You are going to unlearn here. 30 days, you will be building a great momentum. 30 to 45 days, either you will come into squadron or you will complete the hackathon. You will build a lot of momentum to start creating portfolios, start creating resume, start start creating branding materials. You will get strong in your skills. Next 15 days you will come to know the fractal sessions, momentum sessions. You will understand what is mean by LinkedIn. You will understand the portfolio. Connections, job applications. 60 days a person is ready here. There is no other job beyond 60 days. 75th day, you will be started applying for the job. You will start receiving many interview calls. You will start receiving many applications. Maybe if you take a little slower path, you will take 90 days. But after 75th day, people will start receiving offers. Start receiving interview calls.
