This is me Tahir from Pakistan and I’m a Software Engineer by profession for over 5 years, in my spare times you will find me reading about latest trends, helping people on Stackoverflow or solving code challanges at Hacker Rank, or if I’m lucky enough you’ll see me in the mountains.
I am neither especially clever nor especially gifted. I am only very, very curious. - Albert Einstein
This is my fuel to always stay hungry for knowledge. I’m curious about things, I really like to dig deeper in the depths of technology I’m using even if it takes a little more time than usual.
We all know a lot of good quotes, sayings and best practices to follow in our daily lives to become a better person but we don’t really beleive those things until we experience them by ourselves.

As far as I can tell, after a few years of experience in the field and appearing in numerous interviews with a number of great organizations, interviewing is an art. How many of you actually have realised that when someone interview’s an artist, actor or a businessman it’s actually the same when some recruiter interviews you for a job. They just want to know you better!

Planet EARTH, our home! Mankind has been living at this beautiful planet for centuries and killing it day by day. We humans, we’ll never care about our planet until we’re making profit over it. Giants like steel and chemical industries won’t stop to pollute the environment as long as they’re making a living on it. There’s a sever need of force, punishment and self-analysis to make it stop! The EARTH is dying and we have to stop it so say it out loud with me PLANET Over Profit!!
