Gave this answer to the question

The video clip shows Aditya giving an interview to a panel. As the interviewer talked about his academic qualifications, he asked, “What made you leave Goldman Sachs and your career in that field?”

To this Aditya replied, “Sir, I would say there are mainly two reasons. First of all, if you see the background I come from, there are blessings in the form of you becoming a collector. , I had some kind of knowledge about Civil Services right from the beginning, but the final change came when I took it seriously, during my job days I got a chance to understand myself, and I realized that just going to the office And feeding children is not the only meaningful impact on their lives. Third, I would say there is an aspect of social prestige associated with it.”

This was the second question

Then the interviewer asked him if he wanted prestige; So he could get into Goldman Sachs company and even you could go to the United States. In response to this, he simply says that society is more dignified than all this. “Nobody remembers who worked as a partner at Goldman Sachs, but everyone knows who Mr. TN Seshan is.”
