Pranathi

"Just keep going" sounds like generic advice.

Until it's 3 AM and you're juggling freelance work, part-time jobs, and another rejection email.

I'm Pranathi, and this is my story of stubborn determination.

In July 2024, I chose to do my Management Masters in the UK.

Had my share of dreams, determination, and yes, student loans.

Ready to set sail into this chaotic world, or at least land a job.

1000+ applications later, I learned something: Everyone tells you to customise yourself for each company. I chose to focus on my key skills instead.

Because authenticity beats desperation every single time.

Sure, it was tough.

The moment companies saw "international student" or "visa sponsorship," conversations ended. But here's the thing about being stubborn–you keep going anyway.

I tried everything. Remote work. Digital nomad roles. Freelancing. Whatever it took to build my skills while making ends meet.

Then thankfully Unimad happened. Not just another CV builder.

More like that friend who stops your overthinking and shows you the way forward. I used so much of Unibot’s help for my CVs and cover letters.

Their tools didn't ask me to reinvent myself. Instead, they helped me showcase what was already there.

No more desperate customisation. Just myself, presented better.

12 interviews. 1 offer. That's all it took.

Know your key skills. Work on them relentlessly. Trust yourself.

The door will open when the time comes.

Mad Story? Maybe. But it's authentically mine. 🤟
