CEO of Google- Sundar Pichai
India is one such country. Where always, talented people are born. Those who, on the basis of their ability, have brought laurels to their country not only in India but also in the whole world. They didn't get this status just like that. For this, he has worked very hard and diligently. Today we will talk about such personality. Who is the CEO of a well-known company all over the world.
For us Indians, what can be a matter of greater pride than this. That an Indian person has been elected as the CEO of the world's largest company, Google. After all it is something. We Indians are the reason why the world is so fond of us.
Thirst is not quenched by licking the dew. Similarly to achieve something big. Some big effort has to be made. This is the difference between Sundar Pichai and all of us. He works in Google. That's what we work on at Google. Means they work for Google. We google for work.
You hardly know this thing. That in 2014, Microsoft wanted to make Sundar Pichai its third CEO. But at that time Pichai was already working in Google. It was expected that he would accept the offer from Microsoft. Because Sundar Pichai himself did not like Google so much. As much as he probably liked Microsoft.
Even once, a friend of his own wanted to join Google. Then Sundar Pichai convinced him not to join Google. But despite knowing all this. Why google promised to give stock worth ₹370 crore (around 242 million USD) every year to stop Pichai.
Early Life of Sundar Pichai
Sundar Pichai was born on 10 June 1972 in Madurai, Tamil Nadu. He belongs to a middle class family. His father Raghunath Pichai was a junior electrical engineer by profession. His mother Lakshmi Pichai was a stenographer. He had a connection with science since childhood. Because of his father being an electrical engineer. Every day after coming home, he used to brief Pichai about his work.
He lived in a small two room house. Out of which his whole family used to live in one room. The same second room was taken on rent. He was very interested in cricket and football since childhood. That is why today he is a big fan of Sachin Tendulkar and Lionel Messi. Pichai was very smart in studies. But he was counted among very quiet children. Because of which it did not come in the eyes of anyone.
When he was 12 years old. Then his father brought a phone to the house. This phone was the first technical thing related to his life. Before this there was neither TV, nor fridge nor any other electronic gadgets in his house. Their biggest specialty is their mental strength. Whichever number they used to dial once. He never forgets. Even today he remembers those numbers. In fact, they can remember any number of numbers except phone numbers.
Education of Sundar Pichai
Sundar Pichai did his early education from Jawahar Vidyalaya in Chennai. He passed his 10th examination from here. Thereafter, he moved to Vana Vani School, Chennai to pursue his 12th standard. He had so much passion in studies. That after school, in which auto used to come. Used to study something or the other in that too. Apart from this, it was brought by his father. Used to inspect the electrical components as well.
It was from here that he decided that he would do engineering in the future. For this, he started preparing for JEE exam. IIT JEE exam in India is one of the toughest exam in the world. He cleared it on the basis of his hard work. As a result of which he got admission in IIT Kharagpur. He did B.Tech in Metallurgical Engineering from IIT Kharagpur.
During this, he was also awarded the Silver Medal in IIT Kharagpur. After this, he took admission for post graduation in Stanford University, USA. He was sitting on a plane for the first time to go to America. The economic condition of his family was not like this. So that it can avail such facilities.
His family may have faced financial problems. But for the education of children, parents should always be ready. Google founders Sergey Brin and Larry Page completed their PhD from this Stanford University. After this, in 2002, he completed his MBA from Wharton School of University, Pennsylvania, USA.
Career of Sundar Pichai
Sundar Pichai started his career with McKinsey & Company. After this, on 1 April 2004, he gave his interview in Google. On the same day, Google launched the testing version of Gmail. At the beginning of the interview, when he was asked about Gmail, his thoughts and ideas. So Sundar Pichai could not tell them anything. Then they felt that today is the first of April. Maybe he is playing an April Fool's game with them.
But when another member of that panel gave him Gmail to use. Then he openly shared his views and ideas. The interview panel liked his ideas very much. Because of which, he was hired. His initial work at Google was related to the google toolbar search engine. To search at that time, Google was a default option in the toolbar within Internet Explorer and Mozilla Firefox.
But it has come in everyone's eyes only then. When he said that one day Microsoft will develop its own search engine. Will set the default in Internet Explorer. Then such a situation may arise. When Google is removed from there, permanently. That's why we should be aware beforehand. So that later, if anything like that happens. So we were prepared for this in advance.
