Nilam

Nilam is preparing for the IAS entrances with the confidence gained through Glow & Lovely Careers (formerly known as Fair & Lovely Career Foundation) courses.

I belong to a middle-class family from the village of Ahmedabad near Gujarat. My father runs a hostel which helps us earn a livelihood, but we have always had to adjust with financial constraints. I completed my BCom in the village in order to support the high tuition fees of my brother who is pursuing MBBS from Indore. Then I wanted to study for an MBA, but again we couldn't afford the high fees.

One day while I was scrolling through my Instagram feed, I discovered the Glow & Lovely Careers portal and found a variety of free courses that interested me. I took the career test that gave me an idea about what areas were best suited for me. I completed the Beauty & Wellness course and then enrolled for English Edge, both of which have helped me gain confidence in these areas. I also did the Banking course that helped me in my preparations for Bank entrance exams.

Today I dream of becoming an IAS officer, and am presently preparing for the exams. I am grateful to the Glow & Lovely Careers for its online courses, that helped me dream once again in life.
