Question by Himanshu - Mar 30, 2022Hindi

Dear Mr Rautela, I am Himanshu Anand, 35 years old, from Delhi. I saw your article on Rediff and wondered if you can help me out. I graduated with BTech in information technology in the year 2008 but, due to recession, placement letters were held back by companies. I became depressed and decided to join my father’s distribution business where I handled sales and marketing for leading brands like Exide, Luminous, etc, and increased the turnover four times. But now it all seems gloomy again, starting with demonetisation, GST and then coronavirus. I have worked for more than 11 years but I can’t find a job now. Please suggest how can I move ahead. Regards, Himanshu

Ans:

Hi Himanshu.

I would suggest two possible career paths for you.

First, since COVID has now receded, you can get back to your family business.

You can increase your understanding and knowledge in this sphere by doing an online course on managing family businesses.

The second option is sales; since you have done so well in your own business, I am certain you will be a successful sales professional. Take up a course in sales management and look for opportunities in sales or even customer relations.
