Hello Mayank My son has done BBA LLB right now he is not getting any good opportinity in LAW firm, he has trying but no getting desired result , now he is planning for SAP consultant and CPA , please advise Thanks

Ans: Hi Ravi, Considering your son's current situation and his interest in pursuing a career as an SAP consultant/ CPA could be a good choice. But it's extremely important for him to carefully evaluate his interests, skills, and long-term goals before committing to a new career path. He may do thorough research and seek professional advice from SAP or domain experts who are best placed to give him the industry knowledge and perspective on the job market. Researching the demand, growth potential, and future trends in these professions will help your son make an informed decision and aligning his personal interest to his aspirations will further help him in achieving overall job satisfaction / professional growth in the long run.

Some of the other factors which are equally important are his natural inclination towards technology and accounting. SAP consultants require a strong understanding of business processes and technical expertise, while CPAs need a solid foundation in accounting principles and analytical skills. it would be ideal to first identify his strengths and interests. Certifications or skill-based Bootcamps can be a good idea to acquire some targeted skills instantly to enhance his skill quotient.

My son is a graduate in BBA from Manipal University, now he is confused with his career.....and depressed about his career................... please advise as to how he should focus himself now for a good career
Ans: I'm sorry to hear that your son is feeling depressed about his career. It's not uncommon for graduates to feel uncertain about their career path, especially when they have multiple options to consider.

1. What activities does he enjoy? What subjects did he excel in during his BBA program? What kind of work environment does he prefer? This self-reflection can provide valuable insights into potential career paths that align with his personal preferences.

2. Professional networking platforms like LinkedIn can be useful for connecting with professionals in fields of interest and learning more about their experiences.

3. Your son can gain practical experience through internships or entry-level positions in industries or organizations that align with his interests. This can provide him with valuable exposure, help him gain new skills, and clarify whether a particular field is a good fit for him.

4. Network with professionals in his desired field through events, industry conferences, or online platforms. Building connections and staying updated with industry trends can provide valuable insights and potential opportunities.

Its is equally important to prioritize mental well-being. If the depression persist or worsen, seek professional help from a counselor or therapist who can provide the necessary support.

I am engineer with 16 years of IT experience and now a break of 11 yrs. But in 11 yrs I had been taking Quantitative aptitude lectures as a visiting faculty in various engineering and MBA colleges and also done Mutual fund certification. I haven't been siting but doing many things professionally in last 11 yrs(In my subject of interest as Maths, Teaching, Finance, Accounting, Wealth Management). I was thinking of doing ESG certification. What kind of role I would get if i am CFA ESG certified.I am looking for Professionally and intellectually engaging role where I can contribute to Society. Not a very NGO type( I have tried working with few NGO's)
Ans: I won't recommend you to go for ESG certification unless you are having a background of Env. Engg and Environmental Impact Assessment. The certificate course of ESG is costly also. I would request you to open your own academy ( if off line not possible then online) and go for only one subject. Let me know your age.Focus only on one subject. You have explored many areas and now you are perplexed. Here the questions are assigned to me through rediffmail. So second time whether your question will come to me or not is not known to anyone of us. Due to the policy I can’t share my email ID and Phone Number. But I would request you to follow me in LINKEDIN and send request so that I can accept you, then through LINKEDIN I can counsel you in the future multiple times. Through LINKEDIN I will be readily and easily accessible. I have counselled and changed thousands of lives. As long as I am there I won’t allow you to be defeated. Mind that always I am there with you like an invisible shadow to show you the right career path.
