Working in confidentiality.
The firm, Flash Communications, is a PR Firm and a Modelling Agency. It is launching a new pageant style competition known and appreciated worldwide to Mauritius. This project, considering the fierce competition in this industry, had to be kept confidential.

This clause scared me as it was the first
time that I was getting involved in something so serious.
The clause precisely mentioned that I was not supposed to let any information about this project go out of the firm and that in case of treason I was subject to be sanctioned under the law.
I trembled as I signed the agreement as this was a monster of a deal. The stress of keeping this a secret was terrifying as they were not kidding about it. The manager let me in, as they needed help on this project.
It was more of a stress than a pleasure to work on that as my laptop could be easily hacked or information may get lost or misplaced which may be considered as treason. Working at the university made me vulnerable.
However, with time. I learnt to live with it and keeping it confidential became more of my cup of tea.
I started using code words and hidden language to process my information and communicate with the firm when I was surrounded by people.
This aspect of hiding things became fun and I was feeling part of a secret mission like in movies. This rose my interest level and I was happy to be part of it.
This confidentiality agreement which scared me made me fall in love with the very same project. This shows to what extent something challenging may enhance one’s performance, due to its uniqueness.
At the end of the day, this policy made my journey more interesting and worth while.

Hello Sadhvi.
I totally agree with you about keeping things confidential.
It is a must in this industry as any leakage of important information on a particular client can prove to be risky. I had to keep almost everything confidential as well during my placement.
