After completing B.Com I was planning to do Masters in Finance and accounting (with embedded ACCA) in UK. But now I feel that having some experience before doing masters is better considering that employment after Masters will hinge on prior work experience. Is my thought process correct? Though I see job openings for freshers in Bangalore, I am not aware of the success ratio because I recently relocated to Bangalore with family. Should I look for a job or pursue higher studies?

I did masters in health services management from abroad and have been looking for entry level work since few years but no luck.Visiting various hospitals/clinics and getting their feedback on the various types of entry level positions offered and the remuneration offered has only demotivated my spirit.Also,this job hunting process has made a gap in my work history.Should I make transition to some other qualification related to my current qualification?If yes then which one?Please advice.Thanks for your response in advance.
Ans: Hello,

Transitioning to another qualification related to your current field could be a viable option to explore. It might help you gain additional skills and knowledge that can make you more competitive in the job market. However, before making such a decision, I would recommend considering a few factors:

Self-assessment: Evaluate your strengths, interests, and career goals. Reflect on why you pursued health services management in the first place and whether you still have a passion for the field. This will help you determine if pursuing a different qualification within the same domain aligns with your long-term aspirations.

Market research: Conduct thorough research on the job market for health services management professionals in your area. Explore the demand for such roles, the specific skills employers seek, and any emerging trends or opportunities within the industry. This information will help you make an informed decision about your career path.

Skills gap analysis: Assess your existing skill set and identify any gaps that might be hindering your job search. Consider acquiring additional certifications or training to enhance your qualifications. This can make you a more attractive candidate to potential employers.

Networking and professional development: Engage in networking activities within the health services management field. Attend industry conferences, join professional associations, and connect with individuals who can provide guidance and potentially open doors for job opportunities. Additionally, staying updated on industry trends and advancements through continuous professional development can give you an edge in the job market.

Consider related roles or sectors: While searching for entry-level positions directly in health services management, explore related roles or sectors where your skills and knowledge can be transferable. This could broaden your options and increase your chances of finding meaningful employment while staying within your area of interest.

Ultimately, the decision to pursue another qualification or explore alternative career paths should be based on a thoughtful assessment of your goals, market conditions, and personal interests. It may be beneficial to seek advice from career counselors, mentors, or professionals in the health services management field who can provide personalized guidance based on your specific circumstances.

Best of Luck!

Abhishek Shah

Sir, I just retired from my service @60yrs. I will get my PF+other fund ₹50L. Please advice how to invest the amount so that my principal not disputed and I can get ₹30,000 pm for my monthly expenses. My family of 2 persons are covered ₹50L health insurance. Regards
Ans: Considering your age and your requirement, you will need to invest in a mix of debt and equity instruments. Here are some investment options available to you:-

• Senior Citizens’ Savings Scheme (SCSS) – This is a pure debt instruments and provides guaranteed returns of 8.2% per annum. The interest is paid quarterly. The maximum amount that you can invest is Rs. 30 Lakhs.

• Corporate FDs – It provides you return more than the regular bank FDs. It contains two options i.e. cumulative and non-cumulative.

• Post Office Monthly Income Scheme (POMIS): This is another government-backed scheme that offers guaranteed monthly income. The current interest rate is 7.1%.

• Debt Mutual Funds: As your main concern is to protect the principal amount you may consider debt funds and monthly income can be achieved through the route of SWP (systematic withdrawal plan).

• Equity mutual funds: Equity mutual funds offer the highest potential returns, but they are also the riskiest. A small portion of the amount can be invested in the equity mutual funds for growth of the money in the long-term horizon.

It is good to know that you are adequately insured for any healthcare emergency.

Your requirement of Rs. 30,000 will be changing in the future due to inflation, hence you should consult with your financial advisor for a proper increasing income or SWP (systematic withdrawal plan) which can help you to ensure sufficient amount available for your monthly expenses.

Because there is no mistake from my side. Thanks in Advance. Narayanan
Ans: I understand that your EPF withdrawal claim has been rejected due to an error in your employer's contribution. This is frustrating, but it is important to remember that you are not alone. Many people experience problems with their EPF claims, especially when their employers make mistakes.

When filing a grievance, be sure to provide clear and concise information about the issue. You should also include any relevant documentation, such as your EPF statement and the revised Form 11 from your employer (if you have one).

Once you have filed a grievance, the EPFO will investigate the matter and try to resolve it. This process can take some time, but it is important to be patient.

Here are some additional tips:

• Keep track of all your communication with the EPFO. This includes emails, phone calls, and visits to the office.
• If you are not satisfied with the EPFO's response, you can escalate the issue to the regional or national level. You can also mail on employeefeedback @ epfindia.gov.in for the redressal of your grievance.
