Question by Geetu - Apr 07, 2021Hindi

Career

Hi Mayank,I am facing a dilemma. I have to choose between two job options -- the existing one and the new offer which I got some 15 days back.Currently, I am in the teaching field in a coaching institute which is in my native place where I live with parents (they don't want to move to a new place and I need to see them).I have another job offer in a metropolitan city which is very far from my native place (2,000 km). Though it is in a reputed institute, it is for the same teaching position.Now, I am confused as to whether I should continue in my present job or take up the new job.I love teaching and both jobs offer almost same salary and same position. But the opportunity for growth is better in the new company.At the same time, I don’t want leave my parents and they don't want shift with me to the new place.I am totally confused, please help me to decide.ThanksGeetu

Hi Geetu.

I think these specific inputs will help you take the right decision:

1. Many professionals are moving from metros to smaller towns for better quality of life.

2. Time with parents is invaluable.

3. Changing your job in these uncertain times is not advisable unless you are getting a dream job.

Your current roles seem to give you job satisfaction, market competitive salary and, above all, quality time with your family.

I would suggest that you make the most of it and continue with your current role.

Hi, i am facing finding job, i was into teaching earlier then switch to IT Recruiter, after spending 7 yrs in Staffing industry now i am facing challenge to find job so now i am doubting myself should i wait or get into studies as PHD in CSE or do MBA, as i am mtech in CSE. I am in so much confusion now.

Ans: The confusion is very much apparent here.

What is the end goal of PHD in CSE or doing an MBA?

Whats your ideal role? Try and finalize that and see what will get you closer to that goal?

PhD would take you back to academia while an MBA might take you to corporate.

Where do you want to spend the rest of your life?

Sir I am studying mechanical engineering at bvb hubli but I want to join mit usa for mechanical engineering.i took loan for my studies ...should I study for engineering and asat for mit or only concentrate on engineering...please help me sir , because my family financially very poor I don't want my parents to struggle for my wishes and goals....but I want to be a best mechanical engineering

Ans: MIT ( Boston) is having world ranking 1 and fees are very high and acceptance criteria is very very low. So drop this fantasy and try for other universities of USA. Now a days in 99% US universities there is no funding in the 1st semester. If your financial condition is very poor then drop the plan of MS from USA right now. Complete your Mechanical Engg, save substantial amount and then try. Even in India you can prove yourself as one of the best Mechanical Engineers. The formula for being the best is that if you are assigned 'X' amount of work just do slightly extra than 'X'. Best of luck. Just follow me. May God Bless You. Professor...............:)

Doctor, my younger sister, who is 14 years old, had an accident in the kitchen a few months ago and suffered second-degree burns on her arm and shoulder. While her wounds have healed, the scars are still very visible, and it’s starting to affect her confidence. She avoids wearing sleeveless clothes and feels conscious even around close family members. Can burn marks be fixed with cosmetic surgery? She is only 14 now. Will it completely remove the scars? Will it be a painful surgery?

Ans: Yes, the burn marks can be made better with cosmetic surgery. But we may not be able to get absolutely normal skin in most cases.
Only after a physical consultation, a proper comment can be made.

I have a 7-year-old boy who thinks he’s a superhero (and honestly, he’s got the energy for it). The thing is, he’s constantly on the move—running, jumping, climbing—you name it. While I love his enthusiasm, his teachers have mentioned that he’s having trouble sitting still and focusing in class. I don’t want to stifle his energy, but I also don’t want him to struggle academically. Any practical advice would be great!

Ans: Please consult a child psychologist

what should i choose vit vellore or da iict gndhinagar for msc data science

Ans: HI Sakshi.
If you are financially sound, then you should prefer IICT Gandhinagar, which provides better career prospects and practical skills relevant to the field of Data Science than VIT Vellore. However, this does not mean that VIT is not a better choice. If VIT is nearer to your home town and easily accessible, then you may opt for it. But if distance, money are not issues., then preferably go with IICT Gandhinagar.

If satisfied, please like and follow me.

Hello Milind Sir, On the EPF portal, my bank account is my salary account. This account is a joint account with my younger brother. I am a male too. Will this joint account be a problem when I try to withdraw my EPF corpus? I heard only joint account with spouse is allowed for withdrawal apart from single holder account. Should I convert this joint account to a single holder account immediately now or do it after I resign/retire when I want to withdraw the EPF corpus?

Ans: Hello;

It is advisable to convert the bank account to a single holder account as early as possible.
