Suba Placement Service

It is just a small office at No 3B on Kamarajar Nedun Salai. We have been in Old Perungalathur for quite some time now. The room is mostly filled with files and a couple of old chairs for people to sit while they wait. The fan wobbles a bit when it's on high speed. People come in looking for all sorts of jobs, some are desperate and some are just curious. We spend a lot of time on the phone talking to different companies and checking if they need anyone. It gets loud when the traffic builds up outside on the main road. We don't have a fancy website or anything like that. Most people find us by seeing the board outside or hearing about us from a neighbor. Sometimes the printer jams right when we need to copy a resume. It’s frustrating but we just poke it with a pen until it works again. We drink a lot of tea to stay awake during the slow afternoon hours. The walls used to be white but they’ve turned a bit yellow over the years. We don't mind. It feels like a lived-in space where real things happen. We just try to match people with what is available. It’s not always easy and some days we don't have any good news to give. But we show up every morning and open the shutters anyway. There are days when the rain makes it hard for anyone to visit, so we just sit and listen to the water.
