In a phase of "Career Cushioning"

Right now, I am in this phase of my career.


What is career cushioning?

Career Cushioning is about keeping your options open when you aren't happy at your current job. It is about preparing yourself for a possible layoff by taking measures like upskilling, searching for jobs in financially stable organizations, or even starting a side hustle. In a nutshell, it is the plan B in the face of a job loss.

To overcome the insecurities of my current job, I found it the best option. I am focusing less time on my current job and more in learning new skills.

Coursera and Upgrad are great websites to learn new skills. I have enrolled myself in Upgrad for a couple of courses in Management like Financial Analysis and Introduction to Research Methodology.

It will give me an edge in the market to present myself better in front of the interviewer.


Continuous learning and upskilling is very important in today's dynamic world.
