Sleepless Nights, Family Sacrifice And Much More But I love My Job.



Event Management is one of the toughest & stressful jobs in the world. Yes, you heard it right. If you wish to be an event manager, you will have to face these challenges in your life.

1. Stretched Working Hours
Event Management is not meant for people who wish to have 8 hrs jobs with 5 days working in a week. Event industry asks you more. Ideally in season time or on the time near events you may have to stretch your working hours up to 15 hrs a day or even more.

2. Sleepless Nights
On the days of event production majorly everyone from the production team as well as a non production team is seen at the venue with some dedicated tasks which leads to sleepless nights for the entire team for two to three days or sometimes it may exceed even more than that.

3. Stressful Work
Sometimes event industry can become very stressful for you. Last moment problems, crisis, deadlines and much more things are involved in the event management, which can lead to a very stressful environment at times. A person with good presence of mind and creativity is required to handle these situations.

4. No Food
Sometimes work is more important than food. While long team discussions, brainstorming sessions and the production. You may not even get time to have your meal.

5. Sacrifice Family
With lots of work there comes lots of travelling. You may have to stay away from your family for weeks or even months for your major projects. Sometimes you may not be able to attend your family, even in some tough situations where your presence is a must.
