Commonwealth Bank of Australia, India’s Post

“I took a break from work to focus on my health and growing family. It was a deeply personal decision, and one that I’m truly glad I made. When I felt ready to return, I knew I wanted to come back with purpose and confidence.       Often, returning from a career break means taking a step back but from my very first interaction with CommBank, I felt the difference. The recruitment process focused on my skills, my experience, and the value I could add. No one asked why I took a break. No one questioned my readiness. Instead, they asked about what I’d learned, how I’d upskilled, and what I wanted to do next.       Since joining, I’ve had the opportunity to build high-performing teams and lead some of our most impactful technology projects. I’ve also been trusted to shape communities, drive cultural conversations, and represent CBA India across forums.       What stands out most is the trust and support I’ve received. When you bring an idea forward, leaders listen. When you’re ready to lead, they back you.       To anyone thinking about returning to work: believe in yourself. It’s not a sprint; it’s a hurdle race. And every hurdle you’ve crossed has made you stronger.”     - Paras Bagchi, Senior Product Owner, Technology       🚀 Join us and restart your journey with confidence, today: https://lnkd.in/gA2H9v3y     #CommBankLife Commonwealth Bank #CBAindia #CareerComeback #WomenInTech #TechCareers #ReturnToWork   David Singh, Reema Suryanarayanan, Bhawna Soni, Vandana Chotrani, Aarathi Ajit, Sunaina Jain, Jennifer Joseph.N (She/Her/Hers), Nikita Subraya, Sasank Sekhar, Rimeira Herwadkar, Ivan George, Ragavendra N, Ragini Rao, Muralikrishna Raghupathy, Uday Katta, Nidhi Sinha, Deepika Goel, Aruna Rebala, Dr. Tina Amarjit Arora., Vijayalakshmi Karthikeyan, Vinoth Amirtharaj, Ash Moollan, Deepika K., Mitchelle Simon
