I feel calm.

But I also feel like I am not living up to my potential.

When I was in Bangalore, I was applying to jobs and I was getting a few interviews as well. But here in West Bengal the job market is tricky and deceptive.

There are so many criteria and requirements that are not suited for a fresher.

So I am forced to apply for jobs in other states.

I’m also applying to competitive exams, but I am always having to choose between competitive exams vs private job search because my personality issues don’t allow me to do multi-tasking effectively.

So I find it difficult to navigate the job market.

Although I am in my comfort zone, I feel uncomfortable in Howrah. Not because I don’t like it here, but because the job opportunities are less here.

Please don’t get me wrong. I love my parents, I love my grandmother and my relatives but I don’t see a future here. There simply aren’t enough places to shine in as an entry level data analyst with no experience.

Maybe in the future when I have more years of experience, I’ll think about moving back to Howrah from wherever I get a job.

Till then my job search continues.

Apart from my career, I feel like I need to do more physical activities. But I feel like I need to lose more weight.

So yeah I feel uncomfortable after coming from Bangalore to Howrah. 

Thank you for reading this line! It means a lot.
