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.

Hello Sir, I presently have over 14 years experience in Higher Education Academics and Administration in Indian context i.e. Assistant Professor Administrative Officer, Assistant Registrar and Deputy Registrar . Want to explore opportunities aboard like Gulf countries, Canada etc. Can you suggest how to start the process of job hunting. Thank you in advance.
Ans: Hi Shaikh,

It's great to hear about your extensive experience in Higher Education Academics and Administration in the Indian context. Exploring opportunities abroad, particularly in Gulf countries and Canada, can be an exciting prospect. As an expert, I can offer some guidance on how to initiate the process of job hunting in these regions.

Research and Identify Opportunities: Begin by researching the job market and academic institutions in the Gulf countries and Canada. Look for universities, colleges, or educational organizations that match your expertise and qualifications.

Update your Resume/CV: Tailor your resume to highlight your relevant experience, skills, and achievements. Emphasize your academic qualifications, administrative capabilities, and any research or publications, if applicable.

Networking: Networking is crucial in any job search. Reach out to your professional contacts, colleagues, or alumni who may have connections or knowledge about opportunities in your desired locations. LinkedIn can be a valuable platform for networking.

Explore Online Job Portals: Many international academic institutions and universities post their job openings on reputable online job portals. Look for websites specific to the education sector and use general job portals as well.

Engage with Recruitment Agencies: Some Gulf countries have specific recruitment agencies that specialize in placing professionals in the education sector. Connect with them to explore potential job opportunities.

Research Visa and Work Regulations: Before applying for jobs, familiarize yourself with the visa and work regulations of the countries you are interested in. Each country may have specific requirements for foreign workers.

Prepare for Interviews: If you receive interview invitations, thoroughly research the institutions and the specific roles you're applying for. Prepare for the interviews by highlighting your experience and showcasing your expertise.

Be Patient and Persistent: The job hunting process may take some time, so be patient and persistent in your efforts. Keep applying for suitable positions and follow up on applications when necessary.

Seek Professional Guidance: If needed, consider seeking assistance from career counselors or consultants who specialize in international job placements.

Remember, the job hunting process can be competitive, but your extensive experience and background in Higher Education Academics and Administration will undoubtedly be valuable in your pursuit of opportunities abroad. Best of luck in your job search, and I hope you find the perfect opportunity to further your career and enrich your experience.

Regards,
Abhishek Shah

Sir, my daughter is going to finish her BA with Psychology Honours from Indraprastha College for Women, Delhi University. She has received an offer to pursue her MSC in Organizational Psychology from University of Manchester, UK. We would like to know more about the future prospects of this course and the employability. Also, we would like to know how different it is from an MBA in Human Resources?
Ans: Hello Rohit,

To begin with, thank you for contacting us. I am glad to hear that your daughter is going to complete her Bachelor of Arts (BA) with Psychology Honours and has received an offer to pursue her Master of Science (MSc) in Organizational Psychology from the University of Manchester in the UK. To answer your question first, I would like to tell you that your daughter will be offered a solid basis in understanding human behavior in the workplace as well as real-world abilities in fields viz., talent management, employee evaluation, and organizational development through pursuing a Master of Science in Organizational Psychology from the University of Manchester. Students pursuing this degree are provided with the information and skills required to tackle different difficulties that organizations encounter, viz., leadership effectiveness, employee motivation, and team dynamics.

Concerning your query regarding the future prospects and employability, I would like to tell you that with businesses recognizing the significance of comprehending and maximizing their manpower, the demand for organizational psychology continues to rise. You would be glad to know that your daughter can choose from many different jobs including talent management, training and development, human resources, organizational consulting, and other positions with this degree. Remember that organizational pyschologists are respected for their ability to use psychological principles to enhance productivity in the workplace, employee satisfaction, and efficiency of the organization.

Next, coming to your query as to how this course is different from an MBA in Human Resources, I would like to let you know that an MSc in Organizational Psychology in comparison to an MBA in Human Resources generally places a greater emphasis on the psychological facets of the behavior and growth of organizations. Although topics associated with managing people within organizations is also covered in an MBA in Human Resources, it frequently adopts a more comprehensive corporate viewpoint encompassing fields viz., strategy, marketing, and finance.

I would like to tell you that your daughter's interests and professional objectives play a key role in deciding between an MSc in Organizational Psychology and an MBA in Human Resources. An MSc in Organizational Psychology would be a better choice if your daughter is interested in studying human behavior in the workplace and wishes to gain expertise in fields viz., leadership development, employee well-being, and organizational culture. On the contrary, if your daughter wants to acquire a deeper understanding of business management with a concentration on Human Resources (HR), and aspires to work in more general management positions within organizations, then an MBA in Human Resources may be an appropriate choice.

Remember that both paths can result in lucrative employment prospects. When making an informed choice, I would suggest that your daughter carefully takes into account her strengths, personal interests, and future professional objectives. Moreover, in order to acquire valuable information pertaining to the prospects following the completion of either degree, I would recommend that your daughter conducts a comprehensive study on particular labor markets as well as gets in touch with experts of both the domains.
