This groundbreaking project marked a significant milestone not only for Deeksha’s career but also for her employer, representing their inaugural venture into CSM implementation. The complexity of being the sole developer responsible for building comprehensive end-to-end customer requirements within the client’s ServiceNow platform would have daunted many professionals, yet it became the catalyst for an extraordinary success story.
