With time, Bacancy made me realize how work can actually be fun and productive at the same time. It broke my myth of strict work culture that I have heard from most of the working people. <\/p>\n<p>I was hired as a developer from the campus recruitment because of my interest in Javascript and its frontend frameworks. The training provided by the mentors and senior developer fueled my interest, and as a result, I started learning and exploring Javascript more. I was shifted to the ReactJS department once the Project Manager asked me about my preference &#8211; frontend or backend. <\/p>\n<p>Throughout my development journey, I had constant support and motivation from my colleagues. People say it\u2019s difficult to make friends at the workplace, but that was another myth busted, I would say. There wasn\u2019t, not now also, any kind of work pressure and micro-management. <\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/embed\/feed\/update\/urn:li:ugcPost:6815513653249474560?compact=1\" height=\"284\" width=\"504\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"\" title=\"Embedded post\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>All I have been taught was about client satisfaction and managing my work accordingly, as micro-management isn\u2019t something that Bacancy does. We, as Bacancyers, also made sure we are responsible enough, as freedom tags responsibilities along. And because of such flexibility and freedom, I was able to handle my Instagram page for poetry and short stories too. <\/p>\n<p>There\u2019s come my better half: writing. I enjoyed software development but, to be honest, not as much as writing. Yeah, I didn\u2019t mention before, I love to write poetry, short stories, and technical blogs. <\/p>\n<p>As my interest concerns Literature, I started pursuing distance education in a Master\u2019s of Arts in English. And for keeping myself motivated for technical blogs, Bacancy was generous enough to acknowledge my love for writing blogs and offered me to write technical blogs for the company. I did that and enjoyed writing about Javascript and its frameworks.<\/p>\n<p>During the last lockdown, a time to introspect, I did mine. I realized it was time for me to change my career role from ReactJS developer to technical writer. After I made my mind, I contacted Chandresh sir and asked him if I can change my job role.<\/p>\n<p>He asked me the reason behind it, to which I replied, \u201cI see myself doing something related to writing after five years, and I think I should take steps in that direction.\u201d I know it was a tough call for him and management because of the demand and need of ReactJs developers in the company. <\/p>\n<p>But, Chandresh sir appreciated that I know what I want, and I\u2019m willing to take steps for the same. The company decided to change my career role to technical writer despite having the requirement for a ReactJS developer. That made my day. <\/p>\n<p><em>I am so thankful<\/em> to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bacancytechnology.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Bacancy<\/a> for letting me pursue my dream as a technical writer. I\u2019m eternally grateful that I\u2019m working with Bacancy, where they listened to what I want and supported my dream.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It has been 2+ years I am associated with Bacancy, but it still seems like it\u2019s yesterday when I stepped into the whole software-development-job area from chilled-college fun.
