Instagram Viral Video: Getting a job in New York is a huge achievement for any international student, especially if it comes after a long journey of hundreds of rejections. But Indian-origin digital creator Divya Bansal not only celebrated her success on the first day of her first job, but also gave such a message about the balance between career and life, which caught people’s attention on social media. He says that job is important, but not complete identity.
Got job after 420 rejections
Divya Bansal told in the video shared on Instagram that being an international student, she faced many challenges related to visa. Despite this he did not give up. He applied for about 420 jobs. After so many efforts, she got a chance for only three interviews, out of which she was successful in getting offers from two companies. According to Divya, she got this job just about a week after completing her graduation from New York University (NYU). This achievement is also special for him because many years ago he never thought that one day his dream of working in New York would come true.
‘Job is a part of my life, not my entire identity’
In the video, Divya clearly said that in today’s time, job is often seen as linked to a person’s identity and self-esteem. However, he believes that work is an important part of life, but not the whole life. He said that job gives them an opportunity to learn new things, helps them move ahead and makes them financially strong. But she does not want her entire life to revolve only around work. His goal is to create a life where both career and personal life get equal importance.
Chosen New York not just for career, but for better life
Divya also said in her message that she has come to New York not only to make a career, but to live a good and balanced life. So she will continue to make time for her family, friends and all the things that make her happy. He believes that if a person limits his entire identity only to his job, then gradually he can move away from his choice and passion. Watch the viral video below-
