ME AND EFU LIFE:

My name is Khalid Mehmood, and I am from Bahawal Nagar. I belong to a small village called Matran. While pursuing my studies, I began searching for a job and ended up working as a police officer. However, I soon realized that my aspirations were much larger, prompting me to leave the police department. In my quest for a new opportunity, I came across the EFU Life office, where I met Mr. Mohammad Tariq. He introduced me to the potential career prospects at EFU Life. I felt that with hard work, I could achieve my dreams at EFU Life.

Alhamdulillah, on May 2nd, 2011, I joined EFU Life. It took me some time to grasp the ins and outs of the career, but by 2015, I had reached the position of BDM, which is the top sales designation. Alhamdulillah, I have now progressed to the role of ESRBM and have also become a member of the prestigious Eagle, Falcon, and COT groups.

Furthermore, I have had the opportunity to visit over 10 countries, including Turkey and the Maldives. EFU Life has also provided me with a Company maintained KIA car.

MY HOBBIES

My hobbies are traveling, Hoteling and making new friends.

MY MESSAGE

My message to my colleagues is to prioritize praying five times a day and ensure they possess a strong understanding of EFU Life products. They should aim to meet two to three people daily and prioritize excellent client services. Sundays should be enjoyed to the fullest. Let’s work with passion, and God willing, success will follow.

With Thanks and warm regards,
Khalid Mahmood
Executive Senior Business Manager (ESBM),
