In today's edition of the Salim Habib University Career Placement & Industrial Liaison Office's Backpack to Briefcase Series of Alumni Success Stories, we feature Sufiyan Imran, a BBA graduate of the Class of Fall 2022, who is now a Sales Executive at StormFiber by Cybernet, Lakson Group of Companies.

Here's what Sufiyan has to say about his journey:

"The journey from being a student to entering the professional world has been incredibly fulfilling.

My academic career as a business graduate student has been a transformative journey. I feel an immense sense of pride when I compare the Sufiyan who entered university in 2018 with the person I have become today. I was never solely a studious student, despite my preference towards fun activities, interaction with the students of every department, class bunks, and engaging in extracurricular pursuits, I was able to successfully balance my commitments even while working in the evenings along with pursuing my studies with a commendable CGPA. This balanced arrangement was made possible by the continuous support and guidance of the university's faculty. 

I have realized that you can't just rely on books to gain knowledge. It's important to have wisdom and skills in all aspects of life. The curriculum at SHU has been thoughtfully designed to foster interactions with different departments, facilitating networking opportunities and enabling us to learn from diverse perspectives. 

As I embark on my professional journey with Cybernet by Lakson Group of Companies as a Sales Executive, I reflect on how interesting a ride it has been so far, engaging and learning with professionals. Thanks to the unwavering support of the university faculty, securing a job in a renowned group right after graduation became a seamless process for me."

We are proud of you, Sufiyan!
