[@rahulwasnik5779]

it is so necessary to have more video on failures, rather than just showing one perspective of successful people, I really appreciate it . More videos on failures is must.

[@YudiJ]

Absolutely!

[@vijaishreelohokare7297]

It is same case as my son .

[@arfaalmaaz9642]

Never thought, an unsuccessful and incomplete story would be so inspiring

[@YudiJ]

I was inspired too

[@aakupsp]

I've had a similar experience in the past, This guy is smiling and sharing the challenging story. Hats off to this guy! You're a winner, brother. Keep fighting!!

[@adlad3199]

This is amazing, Yudi. I commend you for bringing up stories like these which shows the reality of the situation in the US. People like Ashish have no idea how much of an influence they have with videos like these. An amazing journey and a testament to his resilience!

[@YudiJ]

It's all Ashish, I was amazed when he reached out wanting to share his story even though it wasn't glamorous. Our goal was to make everyone feel that they are not alone and everyone goes through these tough times.

[@IOSARBX]

Yudi J, This is perfect! I subscribed right away!

[@nikkir5115]

I loved this, very inspiring and motivating to keep going. EACH one of us is extremely capable, you got this.

Great video Yudi, It really takes a courage to share failures.

[@YudiJ]

Yes it does!

[@user-iz8ds9tw6b]

A real hero.. bravo... wish u more success.. God Bless you bacche... you are an inspiration for many... You are a real fighter... 🎉🎉✌️✌️🙌

[@praveenkumar-yo1xg]

Please don't use words like unsuccessful stories. Success not just about a job or any monetary benefits. No one can define success.

[@sharima7178]

Wow, this interview was amazing! Ups and downs are part of the life but I really appreciate his efforts to come forward with his story and Yudi's platform to be open to all of us. I recently graduated and has been applying with no response. Got my resume checked but no issues there... one month and my unemployment clock will start. It's scary but I am hopeful too

[@YudiJ]

You got this. Reach out to professors so you can save on those unemployed days if you are unable to get a job by then. But don't give up. I am rooting for you.

[@sri4846]

Very informative interview. I wish him all the success

[@YudiJ]

Hey Yudi, these "non-glamorous" stories might not be that attractive initially but they are so motivating. Ashish's attitude is so refreshing.

[@YudiJ]

Thank you for saying that, it does mean a lot.

[@sumanrawat1111]

Wow such an amazing story! Thanks you so much Aasish for sharing it with us ❤

[@YudiJ]

Glad you liked it

[@saloneee]

Thanks for sharing some real stories

[@yogitabaviskar8900]

Amazing guy and love to see an unfolding story! I'm 28 and trying to switch fields completely. Imagine coming from a non-engg/commerce/science background, without any "corporate" experience trying to switch. Add in the job market condition, inherent ageism of recruiters and zero personal finance. Its a bloody mocktail. I can relate with Ashish's period of self-doubt and the question of 'what is going wrong?!'.

[@bastinbajiojob564]

Now this is something majority of us can relate to!

[@YudiJ]

What resonated the most?

[@shraddy_16]

Hi Yudi and Ashish, thanks a lot for making this video and sharing the journey. I have been in quite a similar situation and I can't deny the fact that this entire job search and the visa sponsorship scenario has been super challenging- emotionally, mentally and financially (somehow I could extend STEM OPT but no income for the past 2 years). All my 3 H1B attempts are gone, so right now being open to options like Day 1 CPT or H1B cap exempt roles with non-profits as well as starting job in India. I'm sure there are many students out there and I just want to say, self-doubt and stress is only going to worsen our situation. It is better to try different things and fail than not try which keeps me going. I will try my best till my OPT ends to not have regrets once I go back/ if I go to India. And every single person's journey is different so I request all to not compare themselves/ feel low. Seek help from friends + family. Also, only continuously learning new tools will build confidence for the interviews. Lastly, have faith and hope, that something better is waiting for you. Good luck to others in the process and just like me, Ashish and Yudi, lets all KEEP SMILING-KEEP HUSTLING :)

[@YudiJ]

WOW! thank you for sharing this. I would love to have conversation with you when you are ready.

[@shraddy_16]

@@YudiJ Sure thanks Yudi, I also would love to share the experience to help other students maybe by July end or August, so I will have more idea on what next :) I have your contact number, so I will reach out to you. Thanks again.🙏🏼🙏🏼

Man what a resilience. I went to northeastern university like him working for an employer since last 3 years. My H1b never got picked , going on day 1 cpt and try my luck 2 more times😢

Thanks you

[@sunithastehly9943]

As much as job expects the potential employee is expected to give more than the outcome and better prospects for the company to sustain. The clashes between employee needs and demands from work and the company expectations will not match most times. Resilience works best in these times and coming from a non-IT background at the age of 50 I still work and in management. Everybody wants to be the leader but never becomes one. We are just numbers to sustain and live. Good Luck A!

Yes

Great video Yudi! I have a question about how did he managed to pay off the 1st master’s loan he took? Did he payoff or not? Because that’s a huge amount we take and come to US and paying it off is our first priority…

[@YudiJ]

Good question! I am going to cover in the next video we are filming.

Is it worth it to do MSBA from University of New Haven ???

He got MS first then again MBA. So does this situation eligible for another OPT STEM extension?

[@YudiJ]

No it doesn't

[@saloneee]

Why would you call this unsuccessful. This is mere hard work, resilience and sometime luck.

@YudiJ @YudiJ . Hi , my H1B lottery got picked up. it was applied by my consulting firm which was present in US. I hav 13 yrs of IT experience. The thing is , once H1B is approved and stamped, whether I need to come US and search for job? bcos the consulting firm will not help for jobs. So any suggestions. whether I need to quit job in India and come to US and apply jobs?

[@YudiJ]

Come to sat live session on this channel 6am PST.

[@ashokbala1716]

Sure Definitely Thanks @YudiJ

[@GK-no6he]

Hey yudi being an only child who is a doctor wanting to do residency in usa how do deal with elderly parents. Residency is a 5-6 year commitment where you get paid a stipend before you can become a board certified physician in usa. It takes about 2 years to get the residency spot in usa. So 6-8 year investment before s great career in usa but when i am about to reap rewards in usa my parents will start aging. How do i deal with this dilemma? Should i move? India is a struggle plus the ability to do research is limited. Any advice?

[@YudiJ]

If you don't mind what's your parents age? and are they retired? You can possibly claim a dependent visa. It might be worth talking to immigration lawyer and get their advice.

noted. Also check out non-verbal communication :) you will know more about why I do it.

[@jayasuriyaj3470]

one big reason for his positivity is... his financial background... he look like a boy from upper middle class. no way a middle class boy could have taken it. no amount of positivity will help.

[@alvishapatel2201]

This guy comes from a middle-class family. He worked tirelessly while at university to cover his own expenses and pay bills. He landed well-paid full-time jobs, and the savings from those jobs are helping him get by while he looks for new employment. It's easy to comment on someone else's life when you don't know what they've been through. Trust me, it is his positive attitude that is keeping him sane and preventing him from giving up.

[@jayasuriyaj3470]

@@alvishapatel2201 you don't understand what middle class means... His whole game was about himself... He never had to worry about supporting his family... He had lones and graduated during corona (during mass hiring) he could have paid most of the fee in those 9 months. Everything mentioned is more of psychological war in his mind, the worst that could happen is move back to India and have a regular IT job... That is exactly what happened. He was not in worst case, he was just worried that he could not get the best. He learnt to move on. Worst case scenario are middle class people who has to suppor their family and come here with loan, can't secure a part time job or a full time job and move back to India... No amount of positive mind set will help them.

[@YudiJ]

Could be, but it still takes courage to come forward and be willing to accept the reality and share it with the world. I do understand your perspective. I am from lower middle class family where my mom and dad would be having conversations of do we have enough money to buy food at the end of the month. So I know what you mean. But let's give him kudos to come forward so he could share the reality and what students will go through and its not all glamrous.
