I am 24 years old, no proper employment record, a 8 supply bcom degree that I couldn't finish in pandemic and thereafter while some of my friends got into private banks without clearing supply, i got rejected for a entry level job at HDFC citing it's mandatory to be graduate which demotivated me even more. Will it be good to finish BCOM after 6 years????, I use to help my friends getting familiar with the topics and clear their doubts but now I just feel like a gooner. I know 4 languages can write 3 not fluent in tamil. Call centre job was a best possible option but I develop a hearing issue whenever I use earphones already (so I avoid them) thus I'm skeptical about that. I write short fictional stories with a social message and been passionate about screenwriting. Where should I approach for a job. Should I put Bcom on my resume, like just completed/not (I didn't dropout of college) should I go tv channels. I know this is too much, hope you could give me an answer ????

Ans: As a ambitious young man brimming with ideas you will benefit by seeking the help of a counsellor or a life coach. Your previous call centre employer's HR team will be able to put you in touch with.

It is getting hard for me to get a job in video editing especially after rise of the AI.

All I see is customer support roles. I graduated in 2016. Please help. What can I do next to get a job?

Ans: Dear Mr. Dilip Many a times , just for trivial financial gain , we commit blunder and chage the track almost 180degree and then find themselves at point of no return. It is fact AI has its advantages and disadvantages . Job losses are apprehended due to use of AI Tools in editing and many generative fields requiring expertise whereas AI ChatGPT etc can perform those tasks in Minutes . Nevertheless , I will suggest you to learn some relevant AI courses to upgrade you skills or else get back to Auditing , starting from Good accoutning firm or other companies in the field of accounts/ commercial/ Stores / SCM / Logistics and then you can go for SAP SD / MM/Fico like courses to upskill yourself.

Ans: Please see the best online course of Video Editing and scope of earning for that. Go for the best online course. But by the time, before going for the course do one online certification course in AI and Machine Language. AI and Machine Language is the need of the day. So if you complete the certification course in AI and Machine Language at least you will get a job and after that start the online certification course of Video Editing. Best of luck. Just follow me.

I'm getting production,civil, metallurgy at pec Chandigarh and IT at uiet Chandigarh. I have interest in tech field but pec has strong alumni network so I'm confused what should I join. I am thinking to take core branches at pec and develop skills by side. Will it be safe for my future career ?

Ans: Hello dear.
PEC Chandigarh is a reputed institute. It is a good idea to take admission to one of the core branches and then develop the skills by joining either online/offline courses. Many aspirants have completed engineering in core branches with additional skills in the past. But among the three branches you mentioned, Production, Civil, and Metallurgy, in which branch/field you are interested is not clear. Choosing the branch at random will create frustration in the future. You also mentioned that you have an interest in the tech field and may get a seat in UIET Chandigarh. Now, if you have an interest in the tech field, then it would be better for you to prefer a computer-related branch. Focus more on your interests rather than thinking that PEC has a strong alumni network. It would be a wise decision to opt for IT, considering your strong interest in it.

NIT Trichy - Mechanical or NSUT Delhi - ECE which one is better

HOW TO CHOOSE HEALTH INSURANCE

Ans: Hello;

You may shortlist health insurers based on following factors:

1. Incurred claims settlement ratio for 3 years atleast, preferable if available for 5 years.

2. List of network hospitals across the country and around the places that you generally operate. The more the better.

3. List of black listed hospitals so as to avoid them.

4. Low waiting period for pre-existing illnesses.

5. Claim settlement through TPA or directly the insurer(better). Also cashless claim settlement feature is desirable.

6. Reputation in the market.(Capital adequacy)

7. List of permanent exclusions

8. No sub limit on daily room rent.

9. Alternative therapies covered(Ayurveda, homeopathy etc).

10. Psychiatric treatments coverage.

Key is to disclose all existing conditions and conduct medical tests as requested by the insurer.

This way the chances of claim rejection are reduced.

You may also consult an insurance advisor if required, for further clarity.

Best wishes

Dear Guru's, I didn't renew my co-operate health insurance for my mom this year, thinking I'll get a private health insurance and my research kept on dragging till now to find one private health insurance..I did find...but suddenly now we have a situation for varicose vein treatment for my mom..now I'm without insurance in the hand....is there anything I can do...my co-operate insurance covers with no waiting period (can only purchase next year apr-2026)..but if I take a private health insurance now after 3 yr the treatment will be covered. I'm stuck now.. wether i should pay out of my own pocket or wait until next year...?

Ans: Hello;

It is entirely your mistake therefore no point in your Mother bearing brunt for the same by suffering with the disease till health cover is back.

Pay it from your pocket. If she is above 70 then Ayushman Bharat Yojana is applicable. If she is above 60 some state govt schemes are there but you need to check with state of her domicile.

Many charitable hospitals may offer treatment/surgery discount to senior citizens above 60 age.

And please do take adequate health care cover for you parents at the earliest.

Best wishes;

My crush give me mixed signals till school time so what it means

Ans: Dear Saanvi,
I would suggest not to read too much into mixed signals- one thing, you might be reading them wrong. Second, it’s possible that they are confused and hence the mixed signals. Third, without verbal confirmation, it’s best not to get your hopes high. If you need further help understanding what the signals mean, please provide a little more details.
Hope this helps

Hello Gurus, i am M 30 I called a girl in an AM setup. Parents are involved and they talk to each other as well. After 2-3 months of continuous talking to her over phn i am convince their family is good and even she is a very good person. So we decided to meet her in person and also parents are meeting. Even though everything seems to be positive i want to check with you since its my first meeting in person is there any advice or suggestion that can help me navigate myself ? What things are imp to discuss even though we have discuss things over phn like emotional intelligence, kids, where to live etc. Your advice would be helpful for sure.

Ans: Dear Shan,
That’s a really good question. Before going to her place, try to build a mindset of understanding her, without any preconceived notion or pressure to get married. In terms of discussion, to understand emotional compatibility you can observe her behaviour- how she deals with stress, or how she might deal with conflict. Discuss daily life expectations, like what you like to do on weekends, do you enjoy occasional drinking or partying, do you enjoy spending time with friends, family gatherings, disciplined lifestyle, etc. Discuss about each other’s work life balance, expectations from in-laws and any non-negotiables. You should also discuss kids- if they want them, if you want them, and also when. Get clarity on expected living arrangements to avoid any future conflicts. These should be more than enough for a first-time meeting.
Hope these help
