Suman Shetty - Story of a Mother

Hallmark Solutions, 
Car Street, Mangalore
4th November, 2011


Car Street reminds me of the Bangalore I grew up in. Not buildings everywhere but a quiet neighbourhood with people chugging along without too much of a fuss. 


Before we knew it, Suman welcomed us into her office with a big smile. Hallmark Solutions is a small husband and wife setup, where Suman doubles up as the placement consultant and Harish her husband is into printing. 


Sitting at her desk, we started our first It's Me! Tour conversation.  Shy to begin with, Suman came out soon enough and started to pour out her difficulties.


She went on to give us a brief on how she does her placements and what were her challenges. Parts of her interview are on video, and once you watch it, you would probably connect to her just like we did. 


Talk about resumes, and it didn't take too long for her to identify with our mission. She agreed to join the Look Beyond Resumes bandwagon in the one hour we spent talking to her. 


A proud mother of a daughter, she's has been  considering closing down her business because she hasn't been able to give her kid the time needed. Through her, we found a new place where Look Beyond Resumes would help people and their businesses. She is now literally freed of sitting inside an office and can carry her work on with a laptop and a phone right from her home. Being able to be part of Suman's life and helping her be closer to her daughter was truly an experience that gave us the motivation to push further with what we do. 


Find Suman on our Facebook page and connect up with her if you need any help in Mangalore. She will definitely be someone who will brighten your day. We wish you all the best for your future Suman and welcome to the Look Beyond Family!
