Hi,

I am an MBA with 8+ years of work experience in varied fields of Publishing,Sales and Marketing, Public Relations and sorporate communications. Due to my husband's frequent transfer (SBI officer)I had to change my jobs too. But i have stayed in the metro cities throughout. My skills lie in my strong oral and written communication; am a cyber addict; i love socialising; counselling; travelling; singing; radio talks; my son is 4 year old. I had to take a forced sabbatical for 8 months (in 2009)and now am in the look out for a decent job. What kind of opening you feel should suit me?

please reply to sayantani.mathur@gmail.com

i think ppl who switch to this mode of working usually dont want to switch back to a conservative office style of work.

western countries r seeing large scale job cuts..now is a bad time.

Dear Kamal

Going abroad may not be the right thing to do at the moment. Recession has hit the Western countries much worse than it has hit ours. The quota for US H1B visas always got a huge number of applications, and they had to use the lottery system to decide. But this year, even after a month of the beginning of the process, 20000 applications are still required to fill the quota. This shows that the IT industry guys do not see any merit in going to USA right now.

About Canada, life is really tough for the first 5 years for any immigrant. You may not get a job of your choice for the first few years. If you are prepared to toil, you should go for it. But it is important that you do a reality check of the ground sitiation there, before you decide.

Best Regards.

i have done MCA and working as a Software Engineer in a small scale pvt.ltd company. i want to quit this kind of job what will be the best option fr me to adopt. i have knowledge abt computer but i dont want to write code more.now i m thinking to move to canada but suggest me what will be the right choice for me .i just want to go abroad to earn money to start any small business.

Dear Stella

Academics is really a great way to go, especially for women. The working hours are good and you get a cool number of holidays after each semester. But it also holds a lot of responsibility. If you really think you are cut for the role of a professor, you should first of all try to get a position of lecturer in a small college or study center. Once you start there, try to get enrolled in a part-time PhD program. Once you get your doctorate, there should be no stopping your progress.

I am a MBA (MKTG) graduate with 2 years experience as a language faculty and school teacher prior to my Post graduation. I have gained some experience in the marketing till now but now i feel I would do well in the Academic side therefore I am looking for job a Assistant Professor or a lecturer in Management. What do you think would be the best way to get a Job? Kindly advise me.

I feel too stagnated in my present job and have been wanting to quit for the last year or so. I have some problems with my team and the issues seem to be getting out of hand. Due to the recession, there is not much work to do anyway. So I feel that I should start looking for a new job where I will have some exciting and meaninful projects to work on. The inaction is getting to me. Should I go ahead and look for a new job? Or should I wait till the economic crisis is over?

Hi Priyanka

You can try to find a suitable job in india right now. After you have had some experience here, you can easily try your luck in USA or other Western countries. If you join a good implementation company, chances are that you will be sent abroad for on site work in your projects.

Best of Luck.

i've done my certification in ABAP Netweaver 7.0 i want to join i a very good company which implements SAP.
i even want to try abroad.

do help me with that.
thanks

Yes, due to fear of negative consequences like a legal suit, most companies in India prefer to carry out layoffs in this way.

My company did not give out any pink slips. They did not fire anyone, per se. They just made people to put in their papers. So nobody can take them to court. They just use pressure tactics to force a resignation. They blackmail you, they coerce you...they r such suckers.

Job security is not guaranteed for anyone today. The corporate world is especially seeing many changes, salary cuts, long leaves and layoffs.

So it is advisable to be mentally prepared for it in the current scenario. One should focus on skill enhancement, networking and saving money in such times. Please read our career articles for more information.

Best Regards.

Many of my friends have lost their jobs recently. i am worried now that i may also face the axe at any point. What should i do?

I think work from home is a good option for many people. It gives flexibility of time, plus u save on commuting costs also.

Some universities donot admit commerce graduates to their BEd courses. But many universities (almost all private ones, and many public ones) do give away BEd degrees to commerce graduates. So try to look up those...

Hi please tell me if a commerce graduate can do BEd?

Tuitions are a great source of extra income for school teachers. If you think you can spare the time, you must go for it. To advertise, you should first create an advertisement in MS Office. Get a few print outs and go and paste them at the grocery shop in your locality etc. Make sure your ad is seen by maximum people in your locality. Maybe you'll need permission for this. Apart fromt his, you can get pamphlets printed. Circulate them with the newspaper in your locality. This should work. Good Luck!

I am a school teacher. I usually have free time in the evenings. I am considering taking up tuitions. But I don't know how to get started. Do I need to advertise? If yes, how?
