Here is an excerpt of the interview with Pratik Shrivastava, where he shares his journey and experiences as a Bank PO Trainer:
Q1. When and how did you start as a Bank PO Trainer?
Ans. I started my preparation for government jobs in 2008 because my father wanted me to be a government employee. Even though I was not interested in government jobs, I started my preparation for various banking examinations. Right from my college days, I was very much interested in teaching. And when I had got through a competitive exam, I started to look out for a platform to find students and start teaching. In the meantime, I started to teach in an institute, but I was not really happy with the experience.
Then I came across UrbanPro.com (formerly known as ThinkVidya.com) and started getting many students. Through UrbanPro, I received opportunities to work with various institutes, colleges, and even recognition for my work. I am really very thankful to UrbanPro for giving me such a wonderful opportunity. Now, I am pursuing my passion and teaching full-time.
