HOPE – The life changing word..

You’ve gotta have hope.  Without hope life is meaningless.  Without hope life is meaning less and less.  ~Author Unknown

“Hope”, amazing four words, this word play very important role in ones life. I still remember the initial days of my firm  GS Job Point , those days were really very disappointing because that time I used to do the business development for my firm either through phone calls or emails and every time i used to get discouraging replies. Lots of time, I had to listen “we already lot of consultants empaneled with us so we don’t require you or we have our own recruitment process”. The more I heard that answer it made me lose faith and often forced me to rethink whether I have taken right decision to start this firm or not? I spent lots of sleepless nights thinking am i going wrong somewhere ?  May be there was a fear of failure because i had started with lots of enthusiasm and never wanted to fail. However, things were not in my favor but  still there was a little hope that i will get positive reply someday. I had that hope before making any cold call. There was always a hope when ever I made a new call , That HOPE kept me going and you know what i started receiving positive replies.

I am sure every entrepreneur must have faced this kind of ups and down in their journey. Some might have taken their feet back after facing some hurdles and some  might have moved forward with the Hope that they will definitely succeed.  Those  who hoped for success and became rigid to attain it no matter what,  attained it finally. It is  well said “Without struggle, there can be no progress”. My firm  GS Job Point has successfully completed its three year and I have seen lots of ups and down and i know the further journey is not  easy but i still  I hope to take it a long way and I know I will.

Today i would really like to  thank all my Blog , Twitter and facebook friends because their association and comments motivates me to write more about my journey and they make me feel that they all  are supporting me . Thank you friends.

 

Important Tips for Job Seekers and Proffessionals

Many times it happens Interviews seems to be very good, people get positive but they do not receive call from company, what went wrong?

The Reason of Rejections may be:-

1) Not presentable

2) Salary issues

3) Lack of confidence

4) Lacking clearness .

This is a small tips which may help you:-

1)      Be Presentable- I agree, that people should be judged by their skills not by their dresses. But many times it happens that people represent the company.  And that is why, hiring managers wants  to hire a presentable person so it is always advised to dress in a proper formal way.

2) Express your ideas clearly- Always try to answer in a simple and straight forward way. Be what you are and answer every question politely.

3)      ‘What salary are you looking for?’-This is one of the most tricky and frequent question that you will come across. To answer this question, you can generally say  that:-

a) You’re flexible, or

b) It depends on the responsibilities of the job.

Avoid putting a number infront of interviewer as that might prove to be a bottleneck at the time of negotiation.

4) Don’t Lie about Your Salary- Don’t lie about your salary. Never Ever.  Never try to trick the company as no matter what the case might be company can eventually find  your salary out.

If you’re unemployed, the first and foremost thing is to take action: take classes, meet people, go to industry meetings, start a blog, read a book a week. Just don’t sit idle.  Remember, if you are passionate about getting a job, no matter how hard the condition is you will surely find your dream job.

All the best.

Salute to Anna Hazare

 

The dream of India as a strong nation will not be realized without self-reliant, self-sufficient villages, this can be achieved only through social commitment & involvement of the common man.”

Anna Hazare

 

Who is Anna Hazare? An ex-army  man Fought 1965 Indo-Pak was awarded Padma Bhushan and is a known figure for his social activities. Today everyone is aware about this 74 years  old courageous man who is on strike to remove the corruption, when everyone is  just a viewer.  Everybody is now just tired up from Indian corruption. Its not that no one wants to remove corruption but no one has the time and courage to do so, it may be because of  their busy schedule.  There might be many reasons  but this courageous man has taken the initiative and today everybody is supporting him. He is on Hunger strike for  supporting a cause, He wants the government to make a strong law to curb corruption in India.

He is advocating for a Bill, The Lok Pal Bill (The Citizen OmbudsmanBill), that will form an autonomous authority who will make politicians(ministers), bureaucrats (IAS/IPS) accountable for their deeds. Another incredible thing which Anna Ji has done is that he has ignited a spark in each and every youth today.  Everybody from all over india is united for the cause. More than 2 million people has supported this movement through TOI poll, Millions of people are supporting the incidents on facebook and lacs of people has  gathered in Ramleela ground to support the movement.

While this is quite good  but i am still not sure whether this corrupt government will pass this bill ever.  GS Job Point support the movement by Anna hazaare and requests you to support this great cause as well. This bill will benefit entire country. …… ….. A Big salute to this great man.

Freshers Tag

Are you just out of college? … Are you a fresher?  Look MAA he is a fresher….. You will hear this everywhere. Fresher’s tag is Everywhere 🙂

Today every MBA or B.Tech fresher wants to remove his/her fresher tag because they know they can grow only if they have experience. They know they can make money only if they got nice experience. But the main question is prioritizing. Freshers are more and more becoming money minded, they want to earn money much faster than before.  I have found that freshers are too impatient to take decisions appropriately.   Take the example of one fresher , i just came across

Arun, is pass out of MBA fresher – 2010 batch, but still jobless. He continuously thinks about the ways to get a job.  Many months have passed still arun is not able to get a good job. Finally he receives a job interview call from a HR consultancy company. He was happy,  as the communication continues with HR consultancy his first question with consultancy was how much salary he can get? Just after hearing the answer, He said not interested and disconnected the call . I asked Arun about reason for disconnecting the call. I was shocked hearing the answer… He disconnected the call because the job was in the range of 8k-15k per month. His reasoning was even more shocking, he says i paid 5 lacs for for MBA why should i go for 10 thousand job.

This is a common problem in India where young generation is more attracted towards the money than knowledge. They don’t understand than knowledge is much more important. Even if you get good money, you need knowledge to manage that money. So,I would recommend freshers to get your first job in a company where you could learn more skills, skills which makes your life easier and better. Join a company where you love to work, so instead of focusing on money initially, focus on learning part.

So, even if your first job is less paying job .. go for it if it has provides high learning experience.
