I ruined an opportunity myself!

I ruined a fantastic opportunity myself.

Two days back, I got a chance to interview with a US-based AI company for their content and copywriting work. I filled out the form, and a DM dropped in my LinkedIn to fix a date for an interview.

The first round went well, but where the problem happens?

After the first interview round, she asked me to send my resume and portfolio along with an assignment.

And yes, even if I have worked with multiple clients from India and abroad, the assignment I sent to her was not at par. I knew it, but I still sent it because I had already delayed it to 28 hours.

The moment I sent the mail, she immediately opened the doc. I was still making some edits on it. (first mistake)

Second, she had shared the doc with other company members too, and they saw the work that I didn't like much.

I knew I had wasted this.

Within two minutes, I got the mail and texted she'll get back to me.

I knew what she meant :)

But what exactly happened because? Of which I lose this fantastic opportunity?

 



June was coming to an end. My mom, the teacher, was planning for the last day out of June. We went to a movie, ate outside, and had fun. I was so tired of unleashing my creativity while writing. I woke up the next day at 9 am and wrote the assignment in an urgent mode, sending it before 10 am. No proofreading, not well researched, no creativity. Just a formal document with not-so-good written content.

I understood, L lag Gaye is baar :) Ye to gaya :)  

But no worries. The next moment, I started with another content work, with a new start. And yes, I love it.

Ramanujans and Hardy Partition Function

  Hello Aliens, This blog is about the very famous Partition theory of numbers by Srinivasa Ramanajun and GH hardy.  The theory of partitions of numbers is an interesting branch of number theory. The concept of partitions was given by Leonard Euler in the 18th century. After Euler though, the theory of partition had been studied and discussed by many other prominent mathematicians like Gauss, Jacobi, Schur, McMahon, and Andrews, etc. but the joint work of Ramanujan with Prof. G.H. Hardy made a revolutionary change in the field of partition theory of numbers. Ramanujan and Hardy invented the circle method which gave the first approximations of the partition of numbers beyond 200. A partition of a positive integer ‘ n’  is a non-increasing sequence of positive integers, called parts, whose sum equals  n . In simpler words, it means the number of ways in which a given number can be expressed as a sum of positive integers.  For example, p(4) = 5, i.e. there are fiv...

7 years of teaching experience

 It was the year 2013 when we shifted from a small village to a big city.  I saw huge buildings for the first time. It was the first time I saw this huge number of people in one place. The first time, I got to know what a private school actually looks like. 🤯 I was new to this city culture, but it did not take much time to get used to it.  My mom, who used to be a house maker for 18 years, decided to give her a new career. She asked my father to create her resume and started giving interviews to private schools for the position of primary teacher in any school. Fortunately, she tried in the same school as mine, and she got the job. I remember, my mom told me what my school principal said to her, even if she does not have perfection in English, she got this job because she got inspired seeing her journey, and starting a new career after 18 years. She believed in my mom because of her confidence. She realized it on the first meet itself.  And from then, there is no go...

Do You Know Pi !

Hello you aliens! Welcome to another blog on one of the most famous symbols in the world of mathematics.  That is  Pi (  π  ).  We all know that Pi is defined as the ratio of the circumference to the diameter of the circle, and is numerically equal to  3.141592653589793238...... and so more. But here we have more interesting facts about Pi  that most of you might not be aware of.Lets have a look on them. 1. Pi ( π ) is an irrational number. That means, it cannot be expressed as a fraction of two integers  (p/q, where q is a non zero integer).  In the 1760s, Johann Heinrich Lambert proved that the  number π  ( pi ) is  irrational. Its an endless number, where you can find about 200 millions digits of Pi. You need a bit mathematical knowledge to understand the image below. 2. We all know that we generally use 22/7 as value of Pi. But, u should know that exact value of Pi is not equal to 22/7 but it is less than 22/7    ...
