Hey, If you could please share what was the reason for deferral? Is it the global slowdown?
And what did you cite for getting the deferral?
Also, if you could please share you application profile (Quite impressed that you got a deferral for R3 in such a short interval, so eager to know more)
Personally, I wanted to explore a few alternative career paths and see how I fare over the following year; and yes, it was also done in hope of the market firing back to its previously held zenith.
As for the reasons for the deferral, I cited financial reasons (which are also quite veritable, btw), along with promising potential professional opportunities in the technical product sector over the following year.
