After exhausting my options to join the Airforce, I thought of giving business studies a try rather than opting for engineering degrees. It clicked, and I graduated with summa cum laude honors and was the recipient of the gold medal (3.96 CGPA) in my batch. Now looking back, it looks surreal and a mammoth achievement. Soon after graduating, I was lucky enough to score a job with Telenor Pakistan as Accounts Payable Officer. Professional life has been a rollercoaster ride, realizing that the ladder to reach the top is slow and far. I got the opportunity to shift my career path from finance to project management and eventually to occupational health and safety. Trust me, change is the only permanent; it&#8217;s hard to stick to one plan in life. You have to make crucial decisions that create and recreate your destiny. After spending 3.5 years with Telenor, I moved to Jazz (previously known as Mobilink) and, after a few years, was heading the health and safety department. In 2019, I came to Canada with my family and started working for Canada Post in Ottawa as their advisor to national policy committees. Parallel to working full-time, I completed my Masters and did another bachelor&#8217;s in Occupational health and safety from the UK, besides achieving numerous safety and quality certifications. I certainly believe that Bahria university has played an essential part in preparing me to be the best and instilling the spirit of &#8220;nothing is impossible.&#8221; My two cents for new students, one it is never too late to revisit your decisions if they are not working in your favour, second hard work will always pay off.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Last updated on January 17th, 2022Mr. Mirza Sohail Asghar Batch of BBA 2008 Advisor National Joint Policy Committees at Canada Post &nbsp; I believe the decision to join Bahria was one of the best decisions I have ever made in my life.
