It’s a nice feeling when you achieve a milestone in your career. I have completed many small projects in 3 yrs of my career, but this is different and very special. Though my designation is Product Analyst (assistant to Product Manager) but, I solely did manage to grab and of course successfully launch the following product.
A new product has been launched under the banner of MaxPrep namely MaxPrep Bank P.O. & Clerical by IMS Learning Resources Pvt. Ltd. Due to increasing demand for banking jobs in India, we saw a great opportunity to tap this market and expand our business. I was working on this project unofficially for past 6 months, but in December I was given a green signal.
It was a herculean task, as all the documents needed to be designed and approved. We were targeting the upcoming SBI clerical exam in March and the deadline was really a dead-line. All the Marketing collaterals had to be designed (Leaflets, Brochures, Posters, newspaper ads). Website had to be designed, that means coordinating with the tech team. Material and the product flow had to be finalized. Academics team had to be briefed for the test designing, hussshhhh.
OHH MY GOD!!! I had a month of sleepless night and heavy dose of caffeine. Overtime, less personal calls, quick brunch, junk food etc. left me completely stressed out. I was only thinking of giving my best to complete my first project.
It’s really hard to climb up the ladder and it is even more difficult to sustain it. I realize that a manager has more responsibilities and he has to deliver more than 100% in any situation.
I hope all my pain doesn’t go in vain, surely my big boss will notice this on my KRAs.
