Harshal Conquers His Career Gaps With Wisdom

“It’s not what you achieve, it’s what you overcome. That’s what defines your career.” – Carlton Fisk.

Born and brought up in Thane, Mumbai, 34-years-old Harshal Kirtane is a person who never took a step back in trying to put necessary efforts throughout his career. Harshal clearly states that “one can progress in those areas where you are interested”. 

This dynamic personality also enjoys football as well as chess. Harshal believes that being involved in some physical activity not only contributes to only physical but mental health as well. He has also been a part of championships and tournaments due to his love for sports. 

“I sincerely believe that wherever you stay or work, you should be happy. I enjoy working in environments where things are more flexible.”.

After working in as many as five different companies, Harshal landed in Visible Alpha where he works currently.

After working in as many as five different companies, Harshal landed in Visible Alpha where he works currently. However, Harshal wasn’t at his best for some time. Harshal believes that in personal life, it is somewhat easier to find one way or the other to get to a solution. But in professional life, Harshal realised how patient he needed to be to reach a certain desired level. Harshal was yearning for a particular position in his career, but the amount of uncertain time that he had to wait for made him feel tense. 

“Sometimes, you’re expecting a 5% hike, but instead getting a 0.1% hike. On the other hand, someone else might have achieved a larger hike in a shorter amount of time. There was no fixed outline.”

Harshal was also often bothered by the fact that his work wasn’t getting appreciated enough. Overall, Harshal lay amidst the chaos of his worries for his career as well as future. Harshal eventually tried discussing his thoughts with some people around him. Realising that almost everyone was going through a similar scenario made Harshal realise the harsh truth. Unable to process the pressure and confusion, Harshal decided to take some career counseling.

Harshal got in touch with Meenakshi, a counselor from YourDOST, through his company.

“For the first 22 years of your life, you understand the world and what and how things are around you. But after that are the crucial years when you’re part of the corporate and most of the population is into that age group.”

Harshal got in touch with Meenakshi, a counselor from YourDOST, through his company. At that time, Harshal was in deep need to talk to someone. So, without any hesitation, Harshal decided to pour out his problems and sought a solution. After a few sessions, Harshal began to get back on his feet. Meenakshi made Harshal realise that it was not his fault for whatever he was going through.

Harshal rates his overall improvement through counseling with a 4.5 out of 5.

There was an idea generation portal in his previous company where employees. Harshal once had an idea that could benefit the company but he was unable to figure out the right way to approach the higher management.  In that scenario, Meenakshi played a vital part in guiding Harshal with the right way to go about the situation. 

“Currently, my project has been accepted and it is in progress. The overall suggestions by the counselor were good and it helped me stand in a more confident place today.”

As Harshal described his counseling process as “great”, he recommends it to people by stating that it has high chances of solving one’s problems. Harshal rates his overall improvement through counseling with a 4.5 out of 5. 

We, at YourDOST, believe that if Harshal can take a step for the improvement of his career, so can you!


Harshal’s Warrior Tips:
1. It’s your life. It’s better to discuss your issues or ideas before approaching them in front of the concerned authority.
2. Communication is the key. If the company progresses, you’ll earn. So, it’s better to discuss your scenarios before implementing them to get a clearer picture.
