Career Eassy

My grandfather owns one of the companies and the other one is jointly owned by my father and his two older brothers. I worked as an administrative assistant in the family business. My responsibilities included hiring new drivers after checking their credentials. It is very easy to get a driver’s license issued in India with the help of bribe. I never took the written or driving exam for the license but got one issued by bribing the employees at the motor vehicle department. I also contacted travel agencies for assignments and arranged meetings with them. Most of the car and bus rental services that we provide are for the foreigners who travel to India. I was also in charge of accounts payable and receivables.
I got the opportunity of coming back to the States and finish my bachelors after my younger brother joined the family business. I did my bachelors in management information system and after finishing my bachelors, I decided to finish my masters as well before returning back to India. I decided to do my masters in human resources as I was basically working as an administrative assistant for my father and part of my job was staffing and recruitment which isn’t really a rocket science in our business. I am expected to join back the family business once I finish my masters and return to India. My uncle and I had some differences while running the business. He is set in his ways and believes that his way is the right way to run the business. That is why I decided to finish my bachelors and masters as that would give me a backup in case I decide go my separate ways.
I am planning to find something in HR field after returning back to India. Having a degree from the United States makes it easier to penetrate into the job market in India. Again my family would have to agree with me before I could accept any HR job. The idea of me working for another company isn’t what they are looking forward too. And given my culture, it’s hard to go against their wishes.
