Tasmiya grew up in DJ Halli, one of the biggest slums in Bangalore. Member of a family of 3 people (grandmother, mother and brother), she has a keen interest in computers and loves learning new formulas on Excel.
Tasmiya joined LP4Y 6 months ago with the hope to find a job that would help her support her family. Her long-term goal: study to become a doctor. But first, she needs to pass the NEET exam and get admission in college. In the meantime, she does not want to stay at home all day: her family has small resources and she wishes to support them financially to the best of her capacities.
During her LP4Y training, she discovered Excel, a software that she enjoyed using so much that she decided to work as a Data Entry Operator for a company.
In the recording, Tasmiya explains how she proceeds to look for a job. She shares her hope to find a position that would enable her to use her brand new computer skills.
By the time this story was published, things changed for her. Right after recording her story, Tasmiya found a job as Data Entry Operator at The South India Waterproofing Company. Goal number one: achieved!
