Lost my direction after 5 years in Edtech sales - what should I do next?

Ans: I would appreciate a bit a more detail on what is your educational background, what all have you done so far, why was there a gap, what have you been doing for this gap of 6 years.

Once these details I provided, I would be in a better position to help you out

Ans: Reskill yourself by doing a course in the area you are interested in and then look at relevant jobs. Try looking for jobs directly in areas of your interest, your MBA degree may come in handy. You may have to start as a fresher, but that is better than nothing.

Ans: Hello

Please note no other person can provide answer....you have to define your own path and walk that.

Suggest you ask yourself what is it that energies you...what is that where inspite of pain you will keep working...what is that where even if you don't see immediate results...you would keep pursuing...

Initially it will be confusing...there won't be clarity...but one the period of time you will find your own answers. Be patient.

All the best

Ans: Shri, Some basic reasons for failing CA exams include poor time management, inadequate conceptual clarity, poor presentation skills, neglecting revision, and lack of practice with mock exams. To improve, create a realistic study schedule, focus on crucial topics, practice time-bound mock tests, and use reference books and ICAI study materials. Practice structured answers and follow ICAI language to align with exam expectations. Avoid rote learning and focus on understanding the "why" and "how" behind concepts. Take multiple mock tests and review performance critically to identify weak areas. Stay motivated by setting short-term goals and rewarding yourself for achieving them.

Despite not clearing the CA exams, there are numerous fulfilling career paths for commerce graduates. Some of these include the following, out of which you can choose the most suitable for you and you are interested in:

Financial Analyst/Investment Banking involves financial analysis, research, and dealing with securities, stocks, and bonds. Tax Consultant/Tax Advisor offers tax planning, compliance, and advisory services. Financial Planner/Wealth Manager helps manage finances and long-term wealth goals. MBA can lead to leadership roles in marketing, HR, finance, operations, and entrepreneurship. Banking and Insurance offers stability and growth opportunities. Entrepreneurship requires strong initiative and risk tolerance. Accounting and Audit roles enhance job prospects globally. Digital Marketing, Data Analytics, Human Resources, Stock Market Trading, Corporate Law, and Public Sector Jobs offer job security, stability, and benefits.

All the BEST for your Prosperous Future.
