Question by Anirudh - Apr 29, 2024Hindi

Career

Dear Sir, I am a 34-year-old individual with ten years of experience working in a public sector bank. I graduated with a Bachelor's degree in Science (B.Sc.) with Physics, Chemistry, and Mathematics (PCM) in 2011, achieving a Second Division. Currently, I earn a monthly income of one lakh rupees. I am contemplating whether pursuing an MBA could elevate my career to new heights or if it is more suited for technical students. Could an MBA potentially offer me another chance to reshape my life? Thank you for your guidance. Sincerely, Anirudh

Ans: Doing Executive MBA could definitely help you in your career. But considering that you are already earning 1 lakh per month, try doing MBA from only the top institutes. You would have to prepare for GMAT exam.

Question by Maneesha - May 21, 2024Hindi

Career

I am 27 yrs old female. Currently I am in 4th semester of my MBA degree. I am doing dual MBA specialization in Systems Operations and markering from a state university. I had done Btech in Civil Engineering. Now I am facing a problem. There are not so good placement drive at my campus. Where can I apply for good placement and how ? At these age am I eligible for government job ? Please advice me. Also this MBA department started from 2022 and I belong to a first batch.

Ans: 1. Register on job portals like Naukri.com, LinkedIn, Indeed, and Glassdoor. Create a detailed profile highlighting your BTech and MBA qualifications, skills, and any relevant work experience.
2. Work on projects or case studies related to your specializations. Showcase these projects in your resume and during interviews to demonstrate your practical knowledge.
3. Create a Strong Resume and Cover Letter highlighting relevant skills and experiences.
4. Send tailored cover letters and resumes to the HR departments of these companies, explaining why you are a good fit for their organization.
5. Reach out to the alumni network of your university for job leads and mentorship.

At 27 years old, you are still eligible for many government jobs. Age limits vary, but many positions have upper limits of 30-35 years, and some have relaxations for women and other categories.

Your MBA specialization in Systems Operations and Marketing can be valuable for roles in public sector banks, marketing roles in government enterprises, and administrative positions.

Read industry journals, follow relevant blogs, and stay updated with the latest trends in operations, marketing, and civil engineering.

Career

Sir, My daughter is in 10th this year. She wants to go in research line like microbiology or similar kind. She prefers ICMR Delhi as of now. Please suggest what we should plan? She is not good in math's so already eliminated Carrers related to math's. She is good in Biology but doesn't want to prepare for NEET.

Ans: Hi Ashish,
Greetings.
Microbiology is a common subject in most health sciences courses. Instead of pursuing a Bachelor's in Microbiology, it might be better for her to focus on other health-related courses that will be beneficial for her future. There are still two more years remaining, and her interests may change during this time. It's best to wait for any changes in her interests before making any decisions.

Hello Sir/Madam, I hope this message finds you well. I am writing this email to seek advice regarding an unresolved issue with my pending salary from my previous employer. Despite leaving the company in May 2023, I have yet to receive my due payments. I have sent numerous reminders through email, WhatsApp messages, and phone calls, and I have also met with them face-to-face twice. It has been a common practice at my previous company to delay the full and final settlement for employees who resign. Timely salary payments have also been an ongoing issue, often requiring follow-up calls every month. Furthermore, the company has not been providing facilities for deducting PF, gratuity, or other employee benefits, which is a total exploitation of employees. Although the company began opening PF accounts last year following government regulations, the overall compliance remains insufficient. Given the company’s established presence in the IT industry for over 30 years and its workforce of more than 100 employees, it is disheartening to experience such treatment. I have served the company for more than 17 years, but they have never paid my salary on time, even though the company is financially sound. I kindly request your advice on how to proceed with this matter. Thank you for your attention and understanding. Sincerely,

Ans: Hello

Suggest you consult a lawyer.

All the best.
