Careers after Std. XII
by Muralidharan Mahalingam on Mar 30, 2007 01:31 PM   Permalink | Hide replies

Young boys and Girls should not jump at the prospects of job opportunities.

A refined person - one who becomes refined through studies, has a better understanding of circumstances and events, is more sober and more matured than an uneducated and uncivilised person. It is this factor that counts in organizations as people move to higher levels. This in turn will lead to better opportunities

So young Boys and Girls, study as much as you can now. Think of jobs after that

i do not agree completely with what muralidharan has to say- i have worked for a month after my 10th- this was because my father wanted confirm my choice of further education. after 12th i had 9 months free and had worked for 6 months again. i have not completed my degree and am working. of course my family have helped me a lot in terms of getting the work.. so if you want to work then be sure you are getting a job.. my opinion towards education isnt the best one has to offer so you would be better off listening to people who do like text books. a degree does help to get jobs a lot more easily.. and i am studying via correspondence to get a degree- this for those who think degrees are useless. this is how indian society works..

BUT WITH A AIM IN LIFE. BECAUSE WITHOUT AIM YOU WILL NOT REACH ANY WHERE. AND THIS IS THE BEST AGE TO THINK ABOUT YOUR CAREER.

I Disagree with with Mahalingam

I have worked my way during my graduation days, thanks to my Dad's persuasion, & have benefited most from it. Yes there were no call centres then but you still had wok. I also found myself more matured than most graduates on completion of my degree since I could get a wholistic view of business. It also helped me in my professional growth. I would suggest that one should work whilst they study if they have the chance. Some degrees may not give youthe luxury to do so, in those cases try & get summer jobs. they do help. It keeps you ahead of your peers 1 step ahead in the rat race.
