Call them what you want: truths, beliefs, values, principals, laws, standards, etc. We all identify and embrace a set of them in our lives. We use them as our foundation for making choices and taking actions. They help us justify our decisions. The risky part of abiding by the truths we hold dear is they can become outdated or inaccurate over time. So, we must periodically re-evaluate their relevance. Or, suffer the consequences of making what we thought were good choices, only to see them produce poor results.
Career Truths for 2013
There are four things we believe so deeply at CAREEREALISM, we’re almost preachy about them.
They are:
1. Every job is temporary.
2. You are not an employee; you are a business-of-one.
3. School teaches you everything, except how to get the job.
4. Nobody can job search alone.
These are the new career truths, don’t you agree? They might change in the future, but for now, they are our professional reality.
Please share your understanding about above mentioned points and share your experience.
I want to share some common mistakes in an interview ie-
1. Don't Prepare
2. Dress Inappropriately
3. Poor Communication Skills
4. Too Much Communication

Every company faces the problem of people leaving the company for better pay or profile.
Early this year, Mark, a senior software designer, got an offer from a prestigious international firm to work in its India operations developing specialized software. He was thrilled by the offer.
He had heard a lot about the CEO. The salary was great. The company had all the right systems in place employee-friendly human resources (HR) policies, a spanking new office, and the very best technology, even a canteen that served superb food.
Twice Mark was sent abroad for training. "My learning curve is the sharpest it's ever been," he said soon after he joined.
Last week, less than eight months after he joined, Mark walked out of the job.
Why did this talented employee leave ?
Arun quit for the same reason that drives many good people away.
The answer lies in one of the largest studies undertaken by the Gallup Organization. The study surveyed over a million employees and 80,000 managers and was published in a book called "First Break All The Rules". It came up with this surprising finding:
If you're losing good people, look to their manager .... manager is the reason people stay and thrive in an organization. And he 's the reason why people leave. When people leave they take knowledge,experienc e and contacts with them, straight to the competition.
"People leave managers not companies," write the authors Marcus Buckingham and Curt Coffman.
Mostly manager drives people away?
HR experts say that of all the abuses, employees find humiliation the most intolerable. The first time, an employee may not leave,but a thought has been planted. The second time, that thought gets strengthened. The third time, he looks for another job.
When people cannot retort openly in anger, they do so by passive aggression. By digging their heels in and slowing down. By doing only what they are told to do and no more. By omitting to give the boss crucial information. Dev says: "If you work for a jerk, you basically want to get him into trouble. You don 't have your heart and soul in the job."
Different managers can stress out employees in different ways - by being too controlling, too suspicious,too pushy, too critical, but they forget that workers are not fixed assets, they are free agents. When this goes on too long, an employee will quit - often over a trivial issue.

I have a thought which I felt that I should share and in fact I would appreciate if people could come in large numbers and give their insight and share their data and the numbers with us.
Unemployability is the new curse we Indians are going through. The Government of India did get success in educating the youth and showing them small ray of hope. But is it enough????? This is a big question because just educating oneself with no proper counselling is not helping us to get the right job for us.
In fact my question is how do we gauge ourselves to understand that what is the right job for us, which is the right industry for us.
Unemployment is not the question, the question is Unemployability!!!!! The term is vast but in small note it means, unsuitable for employment. Therefore he or she might be educated but that education is not enough or he or she does not have the right specialization for the JOB OFFERED.
Lets understand the word better!!!!! Come friends and share your thoughts so that we together can fight this new curse!!!!!
Sawan says: There are two things:
1. Effort
2. Directive Effort
Instead of making efforts, we must go for the latter because a direction is essential in every thing we do otherwise there would be no effect.
A direction does not restrict you or your horizon but lets you experience and enjoy the threshold effort to increase the efficiency of your horizon.

FloydKate says: If you are in uncomfortable position and have got no cash to go out from that, you would need to take the business loans. Just because it would aid you unquestionably. I take college loan every year and feel myself good just because of that. Commented on: 14-03-2013 at 01:03:13

Three Big Queries in the Mind of an EMPLOYER:
1. Can the candidate solve the specific top problems I have today?
-->An employer is searching for evidence that you can solve their unique top problems.
2. Can the candidate build shareholder value?
-->Outside of the non-profit world, a company is willing to pay an employee because they believe you will make them more money than they pay - You are an investment.
3. Will the employee fit in with the company’s culture?
-->While this is really answered during the interview, your resume gives clues about how you’ll fit in with the company’s culture.

Bharat says: Access to unadvertised jobs – Naukriguru.com is widely used by recruiters and head hunters to meet their hiring needs. As you might know, not every job opportunity is posted on the internet publicly. In fact, many of the best opportunities are never posted on any job board or newspaper. For these unadvertised and niche jobs recruiters personally get in touch with jobseekers. So, if you are a registered jobseeker on Naukriguru.com, you are likely to be contacted by recruiters personally. Commented on: 14-03-2013 at 07:03:36
