I am Neha Agarwal a graduate currently working in IBM India. I am armed with a multi faceted array of academic and technical skills. Currently, I hold a bachelors degree in psychology, diploma in textile and fashion designing and a certified web developer. Initially I desired my career to be a psychologist with holding degree majoring in the same. Later on, a year and half back I was interviewed by IBM on diverse profiles with the skill set of good interpersonal skills, communication skills, and advance excel with basic domain knowledge. I cleared the interview and offered with the role of ‘project coordinator’. I grabbed this opportunity as a promising career path without giving any second thought to accept. My profile has a significant role in ‘project management competency’. Part of my role I coordinate with project managers to finish the project within the committed time frame followed with the project life cycle.
After working for a year as a coordinator, I find loads of opportunities with a growing career like project manager, program manager etc… with the required skill set for the profile. Compeered for a year I see my next level of career path as a project manager.
