Question by Rohit on Nov 18, 2023Hindi

Hi Mayank, I have a package of 76 lacs and am at a leadership level in leisure and tourism industry. I will have to move out of my present company by 1st April and need to find a job. I have a varied background of retail , leisure / tourism industries so not a champion in one industry. How do I find a similar paying job in India or elsewhere since most opportunities in this pay bracket aren’t advertised. What should be my strategy and what kind of job portal or consultants I can target

Ans: Hi, I would say LinkedIn is the best for targeted search in companies you would want to work. Also connect with some search consultants.

Question by Anonymous - Dec 23, 2021Hindi

Hi Mayank, I would like to keep my question anonymous. I have been working in an energy solutions-based company. It is a multinational engineering consultancy company. Our main line of business is engineering of oil and gas based refineries and related petrochemical plants. I joined this Mumbai-based company in 2015 as a trainee. I am happy with the work but my financial growth is very slow as compared to my friends working in similar companies. I haven't switched companies as on now. I am looking for a job switch both in India or abroad (Dubai/ Singapore). I have been trying hard to find a company for a job switch but I am not getting response from anyone. I mainly try through LinkedIn and Naukri. My questions to you are: 1. Could you please advise what is the best way to find jobs abroad (because I'm tired of applying via LinkedIn). Should I take any professional help? If yes, please suggest the name of a good company you know. 2. What is the best way to switch a job in India, considering the lack of response from employers through LinkedIn or Naukri? I'll be very happy to have answers to this. Thanks and regards, Anonymous

Ans:

Hi. As you work in a niche segment, your job search also needs to be focused.

Make a list of the companies where your skills are the most appropriate. Then connect with people who work in those companies through LinkedIn. Approach them for a suitable role as all good companies have internal employee referral programmes.

Also, please understand that you should not look for a job only because of a low salary.

If your management is supportive and is willing to gradually increase your salary, then you can consider continuing here.
