I have not been working for the last 6 months due to family issues. I have lived with my aunt since I was child, but my parents forced me to stay with them for a while. That's why I didn' t find a new job. But now due to some financial issues I want to restart my career.

Well sir, I was preparing myself for the competitive exams. That's why I have been out of work for so long.

And nowadays the financial condition is my family is very poor. That's why I am trying to get a chance at your company. And help my family out of this condition.

Actually one of our houses was under construction which required my personal attention, so I felt that instead of joining a new company and taking leaves for every now and then, it would be better to wait till its completion and look out for a job after that.

I got married and shifted to my in-law's place, well at that particular period I was only asked to take a time out for the new family, so I was busy giving priority to in-laws, now I feel I'm very much free to move out and earn money for what I'm capable of.

I had some personal issue, where in my attention was needed. After the problem settled, I had assisted my friend in his venture as a partner, but I was not comfortable with financial remuneration being received. So I decided to explore the opportunity.

I was not able to perfectly balance my life alongside my work. My personal aspirations were getting hit daily. So I took the risk and put to task everything I wanted to work out. Now they are completely settled. I feel now I am ready to work again.
