Meet Saqib Shahid, an IEC Data Analytics graduate and resilient individual from Karor Lal Esan, a quaint town in Punjab. His journey showcases ups and downs and struggles in life. Despite life’s challenges, he remained steadfast in pursuing education and career growth.
His story is one of resilience and resourcefulness. After relocating to Rawalpindi to support his family during his father’s illness, Ahmad put his education on hold to shoulder familial responsibilities. Despite the setbacks, he completed a diploma in telecommunications. Eventually, he secured admission to UET Taxila for a degree in telecommunications engineering.
However, the road to success was not without its obstacles. He faced numerous rejections in the job search but refused to be discouraged. Instead, he turned to self-learning and honed his skills in website development, eventually transitioning to front-end development.
In 2022, his career turned positive when he secured a full-time position in a software house. Although the project concluded after a year, his journey took an unexpected twist when he stumbled upon an Instagram post from IEC. Intrigued by its opportunities, he applied and traveled with IEC.
With IEC, he found a supportive community and platform for personal and professional growth. Balancing his part-time job with intensive assignments and learning through IEC, Ahmad gained new passions and expanded his skill set.
Saqib’s journey with IEC reaffirmed his belief in the power of education and resilience. Today, he is a testament to the transformative impact of perseverance and determination in achieving one’s goals.
