hi mam i need you help regarding my jobs actually i am doing a job As IT administrator now from few year i am handling IT support management work infra and Data center works and many more services i have sent resume to HR for the post of Assistant IT manager or IT manager but not getting good reply or calls i got some feedback from my few people saying technical things more i have mentioned in my resume so can you pls guide for the same what to do and more about what to write more and point must need to be added pl discribe Thanks

Ans: Hi Sir/ Madam,

Few aspects to relook at-

Keep the resume very precise and concise
Take help of resume builders. They are many in the market for free.
Use action words in the resume like- Directed, Managed, Implemented etc
Highlight softskills like - decision making, collaboration etc. Only highlighting technical aspect may not help. Now a days organizations look at holistic approach this is the combination of soft skills and technical skills
If applicable mention about vendor management experience
Tailor your resume as per the organizations and Job decriptions
Call out key achievements, certifications
Keep enhancing your skills
Networking and online presence

Hope this helps

Thanks

Hi, Could you support to get my resume well tailored manner suitable to current industry trend & demand for a job
Ans: Mrutyunjaya, Here are a few easy steps to assist you in refining your resume: (1) Set up LinkedIn Job Alerts according to your domain (2) Write down and prioritize keywords from job descriptions listed on LinkedIn (3) Create a resume using the keywords you've selected using the free edition of the "cultivatedculture" website (there's no need to pay for the premium version). (4) Begin sending out resumes in response to job postings and LinkedIn Job Alerts (5) Prepare your resume to be used with applicant tracking systems (ATS) so that it may be submitted through various channels. (6) Use your profile to identify potential employers and recruiters, and then submit an application to their human resources department. (7) ABOVE ALL ELSE, make sure you have a dedicated professional email address for all of your job applications and LinkedIn profiles. Do not use your personal email address to apply for employment. (8) Apply for jobs every day, but keep track of the firms and jobs you apply for so you don't have to apply again. 9) Network with people in your field, not to solicit jobs but to get advise when you need it. (10) Connect with me on LinkedIn if you're still in need of additional tips and would like to receive a complimentary 25-page eBook on "RESUME BUILDING" that I developed after much research. All The BEST for Your Prosperous Future.

Hello sir, I am stuck in confusion about my career previously i was working as HR due to personal reason had to leave the job and there was gap of 4 years and again after few years had to do new start up from zero and working to Administration department for almost 4 years i am planning of switching job as i dont find any scope and growth to the work i am doing and underpaid here.Not understanding again i should switch back to HR job or continue into adminstration job and also please advice where will i get to learn and upgrade my skill and have growth in my career.Please help sir
Ans: Hello Tanmay.
Nothing is mentioned by you about your qualifications or company profile. Only it is clear that you left the HR job, remained jobless for 4 years, and joined to new startup, but not satisfied there also, and are again interested in joining the previous HR job.
Dear, it would be better for you to join the HR job again. Working in an administration job requires specialized skills which I think you might be lagging. According to your qualifications, it would be better to join some online/offline courses which are helpful to your present job conditions and also useful if you decide to change the job in the future. As I do not know your educational qualifications, it is difficult for me to suggest you properly. For proper counseling/suggestion, please tell us your educational qualification, extracurricular activities, and computer knowledge if any.

If satisfied, pl like and follow.
If unsatisfied, pl ask again without any hesitation.
Thanks
Radheshyam

My daughter scored 96.6 in MHT CET in which colleges she can get for Computer Science in Mumbai. Also we are trying to apply through EWS
Ans: With a 96.6 percentile in MHT CET and EWS category, your daughter stands a strong chance for Computer Science (CSE) or related branches in several reputable Mumbai colleges. VESIT Mumbai’s 2022 cutoff for CSE was 96.6 percentile for open seats, and recent years show similar or slightly higher cutoffs; with EWS reservation, her chances improve, especially in later rounds. Vidyalankar Institute of Technology (VIT) Mumbai had a CSE EWS cutoff of 94.84 in 2024, while Information Technology closed at 92.99–92.81, making both attainable. Shah & Anchor Kutchhi Engineering College, SIES Graduate School of Technology, and Fr. Conceicao Rodrigues College of Engineering (Bandra) also have CSE/IT cutoffs between 94–97 percentile for EWS and open categories. Other strong options include Bharati Vidyapeeth College of Engineering (Navi Mumbai), Don Bosco Institute of Technology, and Atharva College of Engineering, all with CSE/IT cutoffs in the 94–97 range for EWS. SPIT Mumbai, DJ Sanghvi, and Thadomal Shahani are more competitive, typically closing above 98–99 percentile for CSE, so they are unlikely at your score.

The recommendation is to prioritize VESIT Mumbai, Vidyalankar Institute of Technology, Shah & Anchor Kutchhi Engineering College, SIES GST, and Fr. Conceicao Rodrigues College for CSE/IT, listing them in CAP counselling in that order, and include other reputable colleges such as Bharati Vidyapeeth, Don Bosco, and Atharva as strong alternatives, maximizing her chances for a CSE seat in Mumbai under EWS. All the BEST for the Admission & a Prosperous Future!

My daughter got 94.9 percentile in MHT-CET. We are in OBC category. What college she will get.
Ans: Vikas Sir, With a 94.9 percentile in MHT-CET 2025 and OBC category, your daughter is well-positioned for admission to reputable mid-tier engineering colleges in Maharashtra, though CSE in top government colleges like COEP Pune, VJTI Mumbai, or PICT Pune is out of reach, as their OBC cutoffs for CSE are typically above 98.4–99.1 percentile. However, she can secure CSE, IT, or related branches in strong private and autonomous colleges such as DY Patil College of Engineering Pune (CSE OBC cutoff ~98), AISSMS College of Engineering Pune (CSE OBC cutoff ~96), PCCOE Pune (CSE OBC cutoff ~94), Rajiv Gandhi Institute of Technology Mumbai (CSE OBC cutoff ~96), and MIT World Peace University Pune (CSE/IT OBC cutoff ~94–96). These institutes offer robust placement records, modern infrastructure, and supportive academic environments. She may also consider branches like AI, Data Science, or IT in these colleges, as cutoffs for specializations are often slightly lower.

The recommendation is to prioritize DY Patil College of Engineering Pune, AISSMS College of Engineering Pune, PCCOE Pune, and MIT World Peace University Pune for CSE/IT, and include AI/Data Science as alternatives, ensuring a strong academic and placement environment at her percentile and category. All the BEST for the Admission & a Prosperous Future!
