Career advice for working professionals
Mostly professionals with technical or management
background get jobs through campus placements. After serving for 3-4 yrs with a
single company, they look for change or start searching new opportunities.
Professionals looking for new job
opportunities should understand that they must upload updated CV on all
recruitment sites like Naukri, Shine, Times jobs etc. They should also upload
their CV on career sites related to individual companies. Also they can
subscribe job alerts from different sites which can send them latest jobs.
LinkedIn site has too very large number of
features which every candidate must use. Hindustan times, The Economic times
and Times of India bring their careers columns which every professional must
read regularly.
Alumni play important role in career building
of candidates. Candidates must remain in touch with their college alumni
seniors and should regularly take their advice.
Recruitment consultants popularly called the
head hunters too search better candidates. Candidates should remain in touch
with these career or HR consultants. Also there are specialist consultants for
different streams. Few talent acquisition consultants are taking care about IT
industry and few are specialist for Agribusiness or chemicals stream. Candidate
can send their CV to career consultants for their database. Even some of the
recruitment consultants give paid services about making good CV
Also candidates must upgrade their skills
regularly. For example most of the companies now need professional with computer
education background. MS Word, Power point presentation are some of the important
computer skills that candidates must build. If possible candidate must learn at
least one computer programming language like c, C++ etc.
