A Must for Students The intense competition that people face in life in their academic pursuits and professions makes it essential that they are a step ahead to forge ahead. This is easier said than done and involves planning and action from an early stage in life. It is debatable whether people who guide and mentor students and young professionals have shaken off conventional beliefs on how to prepare them for the rigours and challenges they will face in life, be it their professional life or their personality. It takes generations to get rid of beliefs and practices that are firmly entrenched in human minds. Under these conditions, suitable interventions to correct course become important. If you agree with this analysis it is easy for you to see why our students who graduate by the thousands every year are unprepared for decent employment. It is true that certain sectors may be facing a glut as far as availability of positions is concerned. That apart, would they be ready,...

Individuality and authenticity goes beyond tags and limitations because it involves assertion of an image that is unique. The way a person is perceived and regarded is what we call his personality.   Personality is developed when each of its facets are nurtured. Let us first try to define what these facets are.  I would make a representative listing as follows:   Personal appearance and grooming Etiquette   Poise   Effective communication Good listening skills   Self confidence This is only a representative list and not an exhaustive one. These are major traits that one has to consciously address to build up an image. Personal appearance and grooming: The importance of physical grooming and dressing cannot be ignored. Smart, well fitting clothes meant for professional wear will boost your appearance, which is one of the main facets of personal appearance. Sloppy, ill fitting and inappropriate dresses can make you the obje...

The Importance of IELTS  Knowledge of the English language is necessary in English speaking countries that are part of the Commonwealth like the United Kingdom, Canada, Australia and New Zealand. The International English Language Testing System (IELTS) is a popular and accepted method of testing the proficiency in spoken and written English, of people whose mother tongue is not English. A minimum specified grade in the IELTS is mandatory for gaining admission to most of the universities in these countries. For working professionals, the IELTS will add value to applications for a visa or residence permit.  Before going into details of the IELTS, we must analyse why this is so important, especially for those seeking jobs in English speaking countries. In India, the tendency among students is to pay more attention to domain specialization than to language. The result is that, while job applicants score very high the area of their specialization, they fail woefully w...

Looking Beyond the Campus  The Importance of Effective Communication “I think people underrate the importance of investing in communication skills as a way to progress in your career”  By Julie Sweet Our colleges and universities churn out thousands of professionals every year. Among them are doctors, engineers, lawyers, scientists, economists, to name only a few. The system of education followed in our schools and colleges lays stress on only acquisition of domain knowledge, skills and expertise. The sad consequence of this is that many of these young women and men are hopelessly unprepared to enter the corporate world. This is because they are lacking on the basic skills required to function in the new environment. It is seen that one of the most important skills that has to be imparted to budding professionals is the way to communicate, both written and verbal. It is necessary, in the training module, to harp on focussed and sharp communication that is...
