Question by Gaurav - Nov 26, 2024Hindi

Career

Hi Sir, I am 22 years old and pursuing chartered accountancy at intermediate level. I have given 4 attempts for intermediate level but still not cleared. I am thinking to try something new now because it's taking more time and efforts with no results. Should I remain in finance or move to different career as other finance jobs have very little income, I want to earn high at lower age.

Ans: Gaurav, I have previously elucidated the primary reasons for my inability to pass the CA Exams despite multiple attempts. The Chartered Accountancy (CA) program may not be the right fit for everyone, so consider your strengths, interests, alternative high-earning career paths in finance, and non-finance career paths with high earning potential. Alternative high-earning careers include Investment Banking, Corporate Finance, Financial Planning & Wealth Management, and Non-Finance career paths with high earning potential. Shorter, practical certification programs can help you quickly enter high-paying fields without extensive education. If CA is no longer a fit, consider other certifications, high-paying fields in tech or management, or short-term courses in cybersecurity, cloud computing, or digital marketing. All the BEST for your Prosperous Future.

Question by Amit - Nov 20, 2024Hindi

Career

I am 37 year old Commerce Graduate. I was in an unorganized business, which cannot be pursued any farther. Will it be wise to do CPA at this age without formal experience in Accounting, for a decent job? Is there any other course to pursue?

Ans: Amit Sir, A CPA (Certified Public Accountant) at the age of 37 can be a viable option for those without formal accounting experience. The CPA is a globally recognized certification that can open doors to various roles in accounting, auditing, and finance. It provides a solid foundation and increases credibility in the finance or accounting industry. However, there are challenges, such as the learning curve and experience requirements.

To overcome these, you could supplement with basic accounting courses and work experience. Alternative courses you can consider include Chartered Financial Analyst (CFA), Financial Risk Management (FRM), Certified Management Accountant (CMA), Post Graduate Diploma in Management (PGDM) or MBA, and Digital Marketing or E-Commerce.

CFA and FRM are globally recognized credentials that can lead to roles in finance, investment banking, or wealth management. CMA professionals are in high demand in banks, investment firms, and large corporations. MBAs can help transition into management or higher-level positions, while digital marketing or e-commerce can offer opportunities for entrepreneurship and business growth.

Age should not be a barrier for you in pursuing any course or certification. Leveraging prior experience, such as management, customer relations, and strategic thinking, can also benefit a corporate role. In conclusion, pursuing a CPA at the age of 37 is a viable option, but preparation and experience are essential.

All the BEST for your Prosperous Future.

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.

Question by Anirvinna - Nov 22, 2024Hindi

Career

Sir Greetings! is it true that now UGC wont differentiate rather treats equally both regular and correspondence degree or PG. Even correspondence students are eligible and apply for both govt and private sector jobs. I heard even companies need to accept correspondence degree done in India. Sir please clarify without any ambiguity in this regard. This is Q has been bothering me for quite sometime

Ans: Anirvinna, The University Grants Commission (UGC) and other regulatory bodies in India have made significant efforts to ensure that distance education degrees are treated as equivalent to regular degrees. The UGC states that degrees obtained through distance or online education from recognized institutions are equivalent to regular degrees, applicable for both government and private sector jobs. The Distance Education Bureau (DEB) ensures the quality of distance education programs and oversees compliance. Distance education degrees are valid for all government jobs, professional courses, and private sector acceptance. However, some organizations may prioritize candidates with regular degrees for certain roles due to perceptions of classroom rigor or networking opportunities. The UGC has encouraged universities to offer quality online programs, reducing the stigma associated with correspondence education. To enhance career prospects, consider pursuing correspondence programs from well-reputed institutions with strong alumni networks and industry connections. All the BEST for your Prosperous Future.

Career

Is working as Delivery boy or BPO CC worth in Russian country?

Ans: BR, Working as a delivery personnel or a BPO in Russia can be a temporary option for short-term financial needs or gaining experience. Factors to consider include work permit requirements, language proficiency, and cultural adjustment. Delivery jobs in Russia typically offer modest pay, with cities like Moscow and St. Petersburg offering better earnings. BPO/Call Center jobs can be slightly better, depending on the employer and language skills required. The cost of living in cities like Moscow and St. Petersburg can be high, and work conditions can be physical and flexible. Career growth opportunities are limited in delivery jobs, while BPO/Call Center jobs offer opportunities for team leader or managerial roles. Risks include safety risks, health concerns, and limited job security.

Working as a delivery person or BPO in Russia may not provide substantial long-term benefits unless you leverage the experience to improve skills or transition to higher-paying roles. Consider alternative options such as upskilling in IT or any other domain you are interested in & consider other countries with higher salary package and better working conditions. All the BEST for your Prosperous Future.
