I hold M.Tech (Biotech) degree and have worked in EdTech industry for about 4yrs before taking maternity. I'm not into any career since last 1.5yrs. However I would like to start my career into EdTech. Kindly suggeste some course/skills that I can take to foster my growth and opportunities. I want my CV to be highlighted when any recruiter search for SME/content writer.

Ans: I understand you are well qualified and have been working in the Edtech Industry for about 4 year's.
It's understood you have been out of circulation since 1.5 yrs.
In the course of your planned layoff, the Edtech has experienced a considerable shakeout,there have been unprecedented closures and manpower layoff's.

In those years AI has got into EDTECH space as well, so adding AI as a add on skill will certainly take you on par with other candidates, if not ahead!

Design a CV in not more than 2 pages highlighting your core result areas and what investing in your candidature will make it profitable to the incumbent organisation!

Hello Chocho/Mayank sir, I have done Bsc in Biology but I am working in IT for the past 20 years and doing just alright now. I am in a good position in office and really worked very hard to reach here and I still have hands on experience in development in Micro Soft products . In fact my work was recognised well in the office year after year but now the its stagnant from past 5 years. I want to do some courses so that I join some other companies to have challenging job and earn more than what I am doing now, but my qualification is a hurdle and so I have never tried to apply any where. My qualification is below average as I had no proper guidance nor I had motivation then, but after joining the work, my life changed drastically and even now I am the wizard in office and people look up to me for guidance but internally I suffer a lot as my base qualification hurts me. Please suggest what course/courses I should do, so that I become confident and can improve my qualification and apply for job elsewhere. I can do only online course as I have to take care of my family and don't have to skip the office.
Ans: As I can see you have more than made up for your self perceived lack of qualification by excelling at work and getting recognition by your seniors, peers and juniors. Looks like you enjoy good inter personal relations and know your job well. Speak to your seniors that you can take up additional responsibility like A, B and C. Take up additional skills with a variety of online courses from Coursera, NPTEL alongside your job so that you can continue to work, learn and grow. Your company knows you well and it is best that you sell your capabilities to them and grow.

Sir, I have got your contact from RediffGurus. I approach you to guide me in my present situation. I have more than 30 years experience in export sales and also import procurement. Have been successful in developing new export markets and also importing quality material from abroad at competitive prices. All these activities have been under employment only, Where employers earned a lot, and brought me only wah wah, shabash, but no financial gains. Now I am retired, but still quite active mentally and physically. I have an idea which if backed with right financial background, can be a money spinner . The idea is to deal in metal import export trading. I can source international standard quality copper, aluminium, stainless steel etc., from China and other countries at 20 to 30% below market price. These can be sold to hungry Indian buyers here. I can assure, subject to investment, a profit of approx. Rs. 5 to 10 crore in first year itself. And of course a huge, unlimited market exists for these metals in vast Africa, where I have travelled many times and understand how business is conducted there . Now may I request you to tell me if it is possible to get a silent investor. For security purpose, I am ready to conduct entire business in investor's or his company's name, provided my interests are safe. Wahaj Nuri.
Ans: Dear Wahaj,

Your proposition is definitely sounding interesting, but as you have laid your idea and thoughts randomly here, it is not translating into a viable business. Have you prepared a comprehensive Business Plan? Have you worked on Business Frame work?
I would suggest to complete your offerings on papers, write/overwrite/correct/cut/revise and then bring a conclusive business proposition which none can refuse.
Regards

Hi Nripen Sir, I am started my own market research(Secondary Research) firm bootstrapped without team and working on it. I want to know how to do customer or client acquisition. I have 10 years of market research experience. I am sole person to handle this. Also, I want to know do i need investment for this type of firms.
Ans: Let me congratulate you first, it is an excellent initiative you have taken, there are several firms in Market Research but there is always a demand for a genuine data driven research firm.
Initially you do not need a big team, you can handle solo, and when you require first go for management undergraduates as interns.
If you work smart client acquisition and retention will be really easy and smooth you can go step by step:
Create a one-page professional website, keep your clients’ segment in view and develop the content accordingly. Define methodology and tools in such a way that potential clients should relate immediately with their requirements. Don’t write lengthy content. Be precise be crisp.
Use business email id only.
Get very smart stationary printed, letterheads over 100 GSM, nice envelops, attractive business cards etc.
Search the websites where startups are registered such as startup India, start in up, istart etc., you will find a lot of startups who are in Launch phase or in Growth Phase, both look for secondary market research.
Exporters can be your potential clients.
Tourist planners.
Medical startups.
You have huge market for your service, start from here and you may ask time to time for further steps.
All the best
