Students Feedback
It has
been a whirlwind of a year since qualifying CMA USA in last and navigating
through a pandemic
in the hunt for a job as a fresher. After completion of CMA, I was not even
able to apply for a job. Can’t
imagine how worst was my situation. Then as a gem, I heard about First
Career Program (FCP) from my
CMA tutor Alex Tom Joseph. But I was in a dilemma and then I thought of the
best quote I have heard in
my entire life. If someone gives you an amazing opportunity, you better grab
it first so that he wants to
give you the next one. “So, then I finally decided to go with the Plan To
Join with FCP Program.
To my surprise with gods grace everything went well and it was one of the
best timely decisions that I had
taken in my life because Geevar and Alex always ensured to give us the best
training capsules challenged
with hands-on experience that we ever had, with the practical application of
what we had studied in our
professional student career. Now, I am beyond excited to announce that I
have accepted a new innings with
EY as Analyst. So, a huge thank you to the Invisor Education team for their
great support in building me
from behind and Special cheers to Geevar Thambi, CMA, CSCA, Alex Tom Joseph,
CMA, Muhammed
Shafeeque and Muhammed Thwoyyib for giving me such an amazing experience at
FCP and for moulding
me for what Im
today.
I am ready to kickstart this new adventure with EY and cant wait
to continue growing in this new role.
I'm here to share an exciting journey which I had experienced after I completed CMA USA. As a fresher, there were so many hurdles for me to get a job at MNC's. After applying at so many companies I didn't even got a response from them, it caused so much frustration in myself. Then I heard about First career program from my CMA tutor Alex Tom Joseph, CMA . He told me about what all are provided in this training program but I was actually double minded whether to join or not join. But then I thought to give it a go, So I joined there half-heartedly. To my surprise everything went well and it was one of the best decision that I had took in my life because Geevar and Alex always ensured to give us with the best training experience that we ever had, with the practical application of what we had studied in our professional courses. Now I'm placed at Northern Trust,one of the leading financial institutions at USA. So I personally thank Geevar Thambi, CMA, CSCA, Alex Tom Joseph, CMA, Muhammed Shafeeque for giving me such an amazing experience at FCP and for moulding me for what I'm today.
I will sing of the mercies of the Lord forever; With my mouth will I make known Your faithfulness to all generations" - Psalms 89:1 I am immensely glad to receive the news of my successful completion of the CMA Exams. I know for a fact that I would not make it without the tender mercies of my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, my family and friends, and by the most generous hearts behind my success Geevar & Ganesh H, who were more than just tutors to me. I am glad to cross roads with you both. Huge shoutout to Invisor Global Inc. for all the right materials and resources for my study.
After completing my CMA course the lockdown was imposed in India due to pandemic. When there was a break in lockdown I started looking for a job, almost 5, 6 months I send mails, applied through career sites, job portals, but there was no response from the other end most of the time. I only had one or two interview in which the salary was too low compared to market standards. Then I heard about First career program (FCP) provided by Invisor Global Inc. First I thought it's just a intern programme where most of the companies hire freshers and let them settle the pending files. I contacted Invisor team and they told me it's not what actually looks like and they gave all the information about the FCP, and I decided to join the program, which was a turning point in my life. During the internship period itself I got an offer from Entigrity Solutions Pvt Ltd which is a leading consulting firm mainly dealing with US and Canadian clients I joined here as an Associate - Customer service. Thanks to the entire Invisor team for the support.
Hi I am Vinu. After completion of my CMA, I applied to a lot of openings throgh many job banks . But I did not get any response from the recruiters. Then I got heard about First Career Program run by one of my faculty Mr Alex. I took a chance by enrolling for the program. I swear it was the best decision I have ever made. The projects assigned by Geevar Thambi, CMA, CSCA and Alex Tom Joseph, CMA has really helped me to get an idea about how the corporates do their work. And as a result I got a chance to work with a leading MNC. Thank you team Invisor Global Inc. for the great change that you guys have made in my career.
Hello Everyone, I would like to share an exciting journey I experienced after I completed my Certified Management Accountant course. Since I was a fresher, it was pretty hard for me to find a job in MNCs or any companies for that matter. I applied for so many positions which only got rejected because of my lack of technical experience which lead to frustration and disappointment. It was then that I heard about First Career Program from my CMA tutor Alex Tom Joseph, CMA. He went through what will be provided in this program and I was immediately interested in it. I should say it was one of the best decisions I made to help my career because Geevar Thambi, CMA, CSCA, and Alex Tom Joseph, CMA always ensured to give us the best training experience that we ever had, with the practical application of what we had studied in our professional courses. Because of the training I received there, I was able to secure a good job at Consero Global, one of the leading financial institutions. So, I would like to thank Alex Tom Joseph, CMA, Geevar Thambi, CMA, CSCA, and Muhammed Shafeeque for giving such amazing experience and training at FCP and for helping me secure a good job at a well-reputed company.
After completing the CMA exams, I didn’t have any idea about how to apply for the job and get into an MNC. At that time Alex Tom Joseph and Geevar Thambi, CMA, CSCA has invited me for the First Career Program at Invisor Global Inc. , which changed my professional life. The training improved my knowledge in accounting and got a crystal clear picture of a company's working culture. Thank you team Invisor for making us a perfect working professional. Invisor Global Inc. Muhammed Shafeeque.
