Career Comeback
A Kolkata woman has become an inspiration after successfully restarting her professional career following a decade-long break. Subhasree Mukherjee recently secured a global marketing role, proving that career gaps do not necessarily define a person’s future. Her story has gained widespread attention on social media.
Mukherjee stepped away from her professional career for nearly ten years to focus on family responsibilities and raising her child.
During that period, she believed that returning to the corporate world would be extremely difficult. At one stage, she even felt that her career had effectively ended when she turned 30.
Instead of giving up, she gradually rebuilt her confidence by learning new skills and preparing herself for a return to work.
Returning to the job market after such a long gap was not easy. Mukherjee reportedly faced several rejections before finally securing a position in global marketing with an international organisation.
She says her journey demonstrates that career breaks should not be viewed as permanent setbacks. With determination, continuous learning and confidence, professionals can successfully restart their careers.
Her experience is now encouraging many women who paused their careers for family or personal reasons.
The story has resonated widely online, with many users praising Mukherjee’s resilience and determination.
Career experts note that many companies today have return-to-work programmes designed for professionals who have taken extended career breaks.
Mukherjee’s success serves as a reminder that experience, perseverance and the willingness to learn can open new opportunities regardless of age or career gaps.
