We are Chinese and then we are in India, so we eat both Indian as well as Chinese and then we speak all the languages.
We speak Tamil, we speak Hindi, then we speak Cantonese and since I have learnt Mandarin, I can speak that also.
I was in the KYC team, which is the Know Your Client team and that required skills of a Chinese translator because we had clients from China and other parts of Asian countries.
So, in that, had to translate the documents into English and I had to process the documents.
I had an opportunity to become a Team Leader and also to go for a migration to US.
So, I thought this is also a good opportunity.
I hold the position of a Team Leader in the EIS team, which is the Enterprise Image Solutions.
A typical day for me is quite hectic.
The customer deposits a cheque and then it goes through a machine and then it’s read by a machine.
And then it comes to us, where we see the image and we type in whatever we see.
The kind of qualities that a person would need to succeed in this type of a job is, you need to be outgoing and you need to concentrate on whatever you’re doing and give it your best.
I enjoy cooking when I’m free.
I can almost cook anything, so at home, we have both Indian as well as Chinese food, so that is my favourite pastime.
The similarity between my work life and my favourite pastime, which is cooking, is the perfection, which we need for both work as well as cooking.
Because, if we add a little less salt or more salt, the food doesn’t taste good.
And in work also, it’s the same, you need to be perfect and that can be gained only through experience.
I have grown as a professional because I have learnt the skills as to how to manage work, manage time and manage people.
My name is Zareena Tan Pickwan and I’m 30 years old.
