My entry into software

The fascinating part of any story is the beginning. So, it is my duty to make my beginning fascinating. But where do I start ... There are so many places where my story could start. But for all practical purposes in a hopelessly practical world, I shall start from college. I am an electronics engineer by qualification. Studied in Amrita Institute of Technology, Coimbatore.
Could not get placed in any electronics company (sounds familiar???). Honestly, I don't know the names of many electronic companies. Wipro was the first company to campus. They had a written test which on another day could have been dubbed a 'group discussion'. We were a group of 10 clustered together and all of us got to the interview stage... After that the interview was a lottery and I won the lottery. Ever heard about the 'winner's curse'. Well, I heard of the term in my MBA and we have not reached that part of my story yet. So, I shall explain it later. To cut a long story short, I entered the software services world through campus recruiting.
