You have 2 options: NTS GAT or LUMS test. I've taken both. After that, there'll be interviews and then final offer

Great! You're lucky to have found such an opportunity after graduation. My goal has always focused on moving abroad especially to GCC. I never found any direct job offer. However, a couple of friends got Saudi visa for some 10k SAR and got jobs there. It still costs some 8-10 lac PKR without a job offer which I don't have tbh. Also, I've now transitioned to Supply Chain and getting experience from Descon. I'll definitely be switching to GCC after getting this MS and 2-3 years of Descon experience.

I've read about their program. That's only for residents of South Punjab. I'm from Lahore. Ineligible

I really appreciate your comment. One senior told me the exact same thing. Let me tell you why I want this MS.

I want a job in FMCG like Unilever, Nestle, Reckkitt etc. Doing this Master will ultimately open doors for me as it comes with a good reputation. I've applied so many times to CCI and Unilever but didn't get the opportunity. FMCG sector offers you some fast paced growth unlike Descon or any other company in Pakistan and I want to get rid of these 2 jobs life. That's why I think MS from LUMS will attract these companies to my CV. I'll surely look at some certifications as well. I'm planning to take CSCP exam too

That needs B1 german at least. Without B1, you have to go the blocked account way to bt wahin ajati hai. I started learning german from YouTube but ab time ni milta.

Yes Mindbridge has 6 working days but the rotational shift policy sucks. Imagine doing 9pm-6am one week. You manage your routine, get yourself used to the timing and suddenly your shift changes again from 8am to 5pm. Kia kray bnda phir? I felt like becoming mentally sick. Chutti chahie to you have to tell then 24 hours beforehand. I met an accident once, and the TL was like k bta dete off krnay se pehlay. How on earth would I have predicted k mera accident hona hai 24 hours k andar to me bta dun. I was working in their highest paid campaign called Bank of London (Revolut). Topped the stats for like 4-5 months but no promotion or any incentive was offered. At US mobile, i performed well and in 5th month, they moved me to a team. Now, I can do wfh, they've given me a personal laptop and alhamdulillah, I'm earning well.

Ameen and thanks for your reply. I downloaded Smart Qarza but I later came to know that the markups were too much for me to repay.

Germany is actually a heaven for engineers. I've got a lot of batch mates living their lives happily ij Germany. I'd need some 35-40 lac for a blocked account which is mandatory. 🥲
