It was a very early morning at 10 a.m. I was half asleep, half awake when a phone call jolted me from sleepiness. The signal inside the apartment was so weak that I went outside to answer the call. It was an invitation from Chikka for an interview.

A mere seven months ago, I resigned from a night-shift job and ventured onto the mountains – equivalent to working freelance without a clear business plan. The offer from the other line was a real wake-up call for me to set focus once again into designing for the web. The position being offered was quite new to me – User Interface Designer. I said that as long as it’s on a senior level, I was interested.

Indeed, the post that was entrusted to me allowed for a higher understanding of “web design”. It encompassed both the technical and human aspect of designing for web products. I am grateful to Chikka for providing full support to the design team.

To all my colleagues, cheers to a new chapter!
