The NoDegree Podcast – No Degree Success Stories for Job Searching, Careers, and Entrepreneurship

Shownotes Transcript

He was forced to say goodbye to the only home he knew. Saif Ali came to the US as a child. He had a good life: friends, a girlfriend and plans to get a degree in Biomedical Engineering. But, he lost it all because of circumstances beyond his control. He got deported. 

Forced to abandon his plans to go to college so that he could make a living, within 30 days of being in a new country, he got a job as a digital marketer. 

Listen in as Saif recalls how he bounced back from homelessness and how his first job gave him the foundation for the success he has today as a Marketing Professional.
