Pankaj: Turning Rejections Into Roadmaps - How Design, Sales, and LinkedIn Shaped a Career
Episode 1
Sunday, 2 November, 2025

Most of us have faced rejection, but not everyone comes out stronger on the other side. My guest today, Pankaj, has battled more than fifty job interviews, led design teams across countries, and discovered that a mix of creativity and sales is key to building real relationships—not just business.We talk about letting failure teach you, why seeing a customer as a friend matters, and how personal branding on LinkedIn opened new doors for Pankaj’s career. Hear his stories from launching hundreds of projects in India and the UAE, bringing design and tech together, and figuring out how AI fits (and sometimes complicates) today’s workflow.Pankaj also shares why teaching could be the next chapter, and what he learned about sticking to basics when there’s a flood of information everywhere. If you’ve ever felt stuck, wondered how to really connect with clients, or want honest advice that’s easy to use, this episode is for you.
