I am in govt job and since transfer is not there because of change in recruitment rules after joining my job, I got stuck in tier 2 south indian state. I am married and we both are in the same job, however, it's very difficult for me to adjust here because of language problem and absence of female friends since there is less no of girls who take transfer on deputation basis because of influence of minister/ board etc. I find myself alone and life after marriage also has been tough till now ie 3 years full of issues, I am almost 35 now, no baby till now, also diagnosed with fibroids , I am having my ayurvedic treatment. With fibroids, pregnancy is risky, also there is no one to support and come there, when I talk to my husband, he says we'll hire some person that time. Also, if I don't want to stay there, I should prepare for Pcs exam,he also prepare for the same, what should I do as it doesn't seem any way out. Please advice as I can't leave my job without getting another one of same level or higher. I am working in my present job for 8 years and it's of pay level 8. What option are there for me at this age, please guide.
Ans: Hello
One good part is that your husband and you are together since at times even that is not there in govt jobs where people are posted in separate locations.
As I understand that you are desperate to move to a place of your choice. You may look at private job options. Even some downgrade to begin with and then look for suitable options once you are settled in new location.
But then you need to be prepared to stay independent of your husband if he has a job location constraint too.
Hence take an informed decision as to what your utmost priority is at the moment i.e. career vs family.
All the best !

My youngest son was hired by Amazon last year from college. He is an MTech and bright student, topper of his class. But the work life has been very hectic. He works 12 to 14 hour shifts even on weekends and day offs. Is this a healthy trend? I am a retired school teacher from Bihar, and my wife is a homemaker. I worked for 32 years and now help students in my free time. We worked hard but we were never so stressed. We are not sure we understand this generation how they work so much. Is this necessary? Can you please advise what to do in this situation? I am 72, my son is 24 only.
Ans: Hello
The real thing is to understand whether you enjoy your work or are you indeed stressed.
In general there are performance pressures particularly in private set up but one needs to draw lines with regard to work life balance etc.

Listen I am new employee of Aditya health insurance, working since September 2024 and I'm facing harassment. Should I complain to HR or is it better to resign?
Ans: Hello
Sorry to hear that. It is indeed unfortunate!
Since you have already resigned, which at times is advisable rather than continuing in a toxic work environment, it must be a matter of few days before you are out. Hence best way to deal with this is to simply complete your handing over/exit formalities smoothly without giving much heed to other negative things happening around you. In case it is getting real difficult you may discreetly escalate the matter to head of department/business etc. & am sure things will be looked into.
You should now actually put your complete focus on your new job search/career way forward.

Ans: Hello
The real success is being at peace with oneself. This may sound bit philosophical but it is a profound stuff.
Unfortunately our societal orientation has so strongly imbibed the outside-in approach for most aspects of our life while it should be exactly opposite i.e. inside-out. To simplify, real success is not about meeting benchmarks set by someone else rather striving for leading a wholesome life as per own yardsticks wherein material/career elements are only one part of it. It is not to demean/undervalue something but assigning equal/appropriate weightage to all aspects of what makes us alive - health, family, relationships, sharing/caring etc. hence there is absolute no reason for you to feel ashamed merely basis some perceived/incomplete notions. Yes we should continue to strive for enhancements in life in all areas but do it for personal satisfaction and not for others hence there is no reason to feel stressed rather our goals if set right should energize us & give us a larger purpose in life.
Therefore look at things from a larger prism & not merely to gain some 'random perceived gains' that will again be shor-tlived.

Listen How do I overcome job interview anxiety as a 22-year-old girl from Pune?
Ans: Hello
Interview anxiety is not uncommon & most face that.
Do practice/mock interviews with professionals (there are lot of them nowadays).
The only way to gain confidence is to PRACTICE.
Also do bit of introspection in terms of what gets you anxiety - subject knowledge/communication skills/public speaking?
Once you identify, put focused effort to improve that particular area.
All the Best!

Listen Should I quit my toxic job as a new mom with a toxic manager amidst an education sector recession?
Ans: Hello
You have mentioned 'extremely toxic' hence it becomes imperative for you to move out at the earliest.
Ideally it is good to have something in hand but if it is taking longer than taking a break for focused effort towards alternative options is not a bad idea.
But do that with proper planning in terms of direction you wish to take, finances etc. & you will for sure find something meaningful.
Continue to deal with real bad work environment is certainly not advisable.
All the Best!

First-time SSC CGL Tier 2: How to Balance Revision and Mock Tests for Peak Performance?

Listen SSC CGL Tier 2 Time Management: How to Effectively Answer All Sections?
Ans: Hello
There is no better way than to simulate exam conditions by means of taking mocks.
But only taking mocks will not help unless each mock result is critically analyzed for improvement areas & learnings get implemented in subsequent practices.
There is no 'one size fits all' technique since each individual will have his/her own test taking strategies.
The key is to identify that through 'timed practice tests' & perfect it before the actual attempt.

Jobless at 46: Is it the End of My Supply Chain Career?
Ans: Hello Sagar
You can approach some good executive search companies such as Michael Page, Korn Ferry, Spencer Stuart. These companies specialize in senior level targeted job placements.
With gap in service it does get bit challenging to get a suitable opening hence you might need to compromise in position & pay levels for reentering the job market.
You may also look to simultaneously reskill/upskill yourself with some good courses in your domain of Supply Chain that may further boost your chances.

Which graduate or postgraduate courses offer better job prospects in the next 3-4 years?
Ans: Hello
Think the right way to look at this is to reverse the equation & assess your own aptitude, interest areas etc.
You have better chance of excelling in your areas of interest rather than picking up anything random just going by trend.
Talent is always in demand provided it is in the right place.
Having said that, in general, tech is certainly the way forward. Fields such as Artificial Intelligence, Machine Learning, Data
Mining/Science have already started impacting our routine lives and skill/knowledge in these areas will be in good demand in coming times.
All the Best !!

Should I leave my government job and practice law at 49? I'm teaching and worried about income.
Ans: Hello Sabu
You have not mentioned your motivation to look for career change at this juncture of your life.
Is it out of passion, money or something else?
Idly, if one can afford, a parallel switch is most advisable & least disruptive. Means you should parallelly start small steps in new area & gradually switch over rather an abrupt one shot change.
As mentioned, deeper details of your thought process/circumstances will help a more precise revert.

Listen Can I Join the Indian Army or Police Force With My Fire and Safety Officer Experience?
Ans: Hello
Don't think at 35 there are any full time career opportunities in regular Army/Police.
Territorial Army (TA) could be an option for part time service in Army that does offer position/perks as per regular cadre officers.
Details are available on TA website if you wish to explore further.
