Career

Thank you Sir. Your answer was quite helpful. But one question: if you are working how can you do a freelancing work?

Ans: Yes, it is legal to freelance while employed full time in India, but it depends on your contract and the company you work for. Most organizations have their own rules regarding freelancing, and some do not allow it. You should check with your employer to ensure that freelancing is allowed under your contract. You should also be aware of any potential conflicts of interest or ethical concerns that may arise.

Hello Sir, My Salary is in range of 30k-35k per month. I work as Counselor for study abroad consultancy. My job profile includes counselling, content editing, grooming students for visa and other related paper work. As the job is close to my house, I really don't want to change my job. However with increasing inflation now there is a need to earn more money. Should I stick to counseling current job or should I look for remote job in content editing. I need to earn more money. Also if I do part time jobs will it be okay? Kindly advice

Ans: To manage finances while working, consider the following strategies. Stay in your current job and focus on improving skills for a higher salary. Talk about getting a raise by showcasing how you've helped students succeed and boosted the consultancy's reputation. Enhance your value by acquiring certifications in areas like international education consultancy, digital marketing, or advanced content editing. Consider remote counselling or mentoring opportunities. Set work-life boundaries to avoid burnout and maintain financial discipline. Consider freelancing or local counselling groups for part-time opportunities. Level up your skills to increase earning potential in your current consultancy. Also, fine-tune your LinkedIn Profile with Job Alerts for ABROAD EDUCATION COUNSELLOR Jobs. If affordable, go for one on one counselling/coaching with any reputed Career Coach having specialised knowledge in Job Search Strategies such as Vikram Anand or Sakshi Chandrasekar who can help you in searching for better job options & in fine-tuning your LinkedIn Profile.
All the Best for Your Prosperous Future.
