Hi,
I am Female/24 yrs (will be 25 at matriculation)/Indian working in America for an Indian IT Company for the last 1.5 yrs (have total of 3 yrs exp right now). I have worked closely with the client team and have gained their confidence so much so that they wanted me to join their company(am not sure how common this is). I have also suggested many process improvements such as reporting, resource allocation and billing to client which is above and beyond my scope of work. I was also involved in some client initiatives etc. (PS one of my recomenders will be my client Manager).
