An Indian-origin Biomedical Engineering graduate from the University at Buffalo has finally cracked the formula “300+ applications, 500+ cold emails, 10 interviews, 1 offer” later as he landed his dream job at the Elon Musk -led multinational automotive company Tesla . On September 28 (IST), New York -based Dhruv Loya gladly celebrated his professional breakthrough on LinkedIn, sharing his latest achievement that finally greeted him at the end of a challenging journey. “I finally got a job!” Loya announced on the professional social networking site, as he updated his resume, adding Powerwall Technical Support Specialist to his list of experiences under Tesla's banner.
He opened up about how the arduous path to the major career destination was overlaid with “three internships, a good GPA, and active extracurriculars.” Despite cracking those milestones, making his portfolio heavier than before, he found himself at a dead-end, bringing five long and taxing months of unemployment. Not only was he professionally stuck in a quicksand-like situation, but he also underlined how other aspects of his life in the US were also running out of fuel.
“ Lost my lease, my health insurance, and constantly felt the ticking clock of my visa status, knowing I could be forced to leave the U.S. at any moment,” he wrote online.
