She approached us in late 2016. She had started her first job and was facing challenges in executing projects and questioning if this was the right career for her. Her journey with us began with a career test to understand her competencies and learning style. Our expert conducted a high-level analysis of her job profile, career report, and personality. The best part was her receptiveness, adaptability, and learner mindset. She followed our initial guidance to learn project management skills. Trained by our expert, she applied these learnings to her everyday tasks, seeing immediate results. She continued with weekly, fortnightly, and monthly career mentoring sessions to break down her aspirations into short-term and long-term goals, overcome mental barriers, build confidence, and grow in her career.
This process helped her decide to apply for a master’s program in Europe. She dedicated a year to the necessary preparation and was accepted into the M.S. Ecohydrology program at Erasmus Mundus in July 2022. This would be her second master’s degree after completing an MSc in Water Policy and Governance from Tata Institute of Social Science in 2016. With regular career mentoring sessions, she was able to move out of her comfort zone, take on challenging tasks to build an impressive CV, and receive the best research paper award in 2022. Team Fermata is proud to be part of this young adult’s growth journey!
