Question by Denzil on Mar 10, 2021Hindi

Career

Dear Mayank Sir
I will be taking up my first job soon.
I am in the process of giving interviews and some of them sound promising.
What are the things I should keep in mind before taking up a job?
How important is the money? Are there factors that are more important than money?
What are the things I should look out for in the offer letter?
Thank you,
Denzil Saldhana
Mumbai

Ans:

Hi Denzil.

Your first job is like your first true love.

It will be your launch pad into the corporate world.

There are far more important factors than money.

The top few points that make a difference and will lay the foundation of your career are:

1. Reputation and standing of the company. Only an ethical and financially stable organisation can provide you a stable career.

2. People join companies but leave bosses, so do a detailed check about your manager through your sources and online platforms.

3. The quality of work that you do is important. Insist on a detailed job description so that you are aware of what you are getting into and if it compliments your profile and interests.

Question by Ravi - Apr 07, 2021Hindi

Career

Dear Mayank,I am looking for a job change and this is first time I will be doing so in my career.I have spent four years in sales and marketing in my company.I have sent out some applications and have got some positive responses.Other than salary, what are the things that I should keep in mind before deciding to accept a job?Ravi Khanna

Dear Ravi,

I would advise you to continue with your current organisation as changing a job in these economic times is not advisable.

The pandemic situation has re-erupted and it is best to hold on to your job.

In case you do decide to change, the salary is just the starting point.

You should look at stability of the company and the job profile.

Do research the history of the company and the manager you will report to.

A company’s core value and sound business model is very critical to your success as well.

Question by Prasanna - Jan 25, 2023Hindi

Career

Dear Mayank, what tips would you give to a young graduate who is heading for his first job interview ever? Tips to crack a group discussion and personal interviews?

Ans: Hi, This is Nitin. But that doesn't matter!
An interview is an interaction between you the seller and the employer, the buyer. I will give you the following quick tips..
Read up on the company and job requirements.
Carry out a SWOT analysis of yourself to know your self better.
Be confident, you will face some anxiety though. When you get tense, just say relax relax relax in your mind.
Don't underlay yourself or for that matter don't be boastful.
Remember, at the end of the day, it is more for your attitude than for the degree/ qualification you hold that you will be selected!
Rest of the smaller tips are available online!
Cheers and all the best!

Career

Dear mam, You must hv taken lots of interviews. Some of the questions are commonly asked in interviews. All question are ok to me. But there is one question which is generally asked in interviews and i really dont know its appropriate reply. Q. What are your salary expectations ? May I know what should be the appropriate answers to it ?

Ans: This is the easiest answer. Tell them what your actual expectations are... may be a number if you have it in mind or a %hike. You can always mention that this is a number you have in mind but that can be discussed based on the company budget / role / future prospects / any other perks that add up.

Dear Sir, You must hv taken lots of interviews. Some of the questions are commonly asked in interviews. All question are ok to me. But there is one question which is generally asked in interviews and i really dont know its appropriate reply. Q. What are your salary expectations ? May I know what should be the appropriate answers to it ? And what are the things that an employee should take care of so that his/her boss doesn't get annoyed.

Ans: When you go there, you are aware of what the job might get you. You also know your worth as well as you know what your last drawn salary was. Based on all this, the best way to answer would be...' Sir, I was working as....till now and earning..... I have applied here to get more than that amount for sure. Considering the job content and my skills and the value addition that I can bring to the work output, I feel that I am worth ...... Maybe you could also give out how much you are willing to give for the job that you are considering giving me, I could negotiate with the HR once you confirm the same. As of now, besides the pay packet, I am also looking at the exciting prospects of the new job on offer!'
Something like that won't harm anyone.
As far as doing things that are annoying, I suggest do not do anything that will annoy you and do not speak anything extra, other than the answer to the question asked. All the best!
