Friend’s Now we discuss the strategy to tackle the problem.

Its SCOPE.

It means you have to adopt this SCOPE strategy to overcome the confusion. It includes 5 things like

1. Scenario

2. Companion

3. Opportunity

4. Plan

5. Evaluation.

Now we move into the detailed aspect one by one.

Let’s begin with the first one i.e Scenario.

1. SCENARIO:

First of all analyze the scenario and take a look for the ongoing crisis, situations, and trends nearby you. It gives you a clear picture of current needs and requirements.

PG: When we talk about PG then the interested person must look for the concerned discipline in which one has to complete it. At the same time care should be taken to have alternative options for PG or Ph.D. Let me clear one thing if you opt for PG it means you can enter into the field of Academics, R and D positions. For this, you have to identify the number of PG institutes their eligibility criteria, cutoff, dates of application etc.

JOB: In the current scenario, if you come over any vacancy then definitely go and grab it. As a fresher do not go for more choices, company preferences, locality, salary etc. You must have to gain required experience and skills that will advance your career with leaps and bounds. Note down the different industries in your regions and try to find out their recruitment policies. Friends, I must say that if you have the job during the initial period when you are just Passed out, your confidence and negotiation skills are much more but in that period itself, you know how to cope with the industry. You ensure How to deal with your seniors, how to run the lines, roles and responsibility of the position, how to follow company norms, etc.

Competitive Exams: With concern to Competitive exams you must aware of the pattern of the current exams their eligibility and dates to fill the application, syllabus, and other details. You have to prepare for competitive exams from the second and third year itself. Because now a days lot of exams like Technical Officer, Central FSO, Deputy Director, FCI, AO, SO, MBA, CAT will be coming soon. So for that your preparation can not be completed within one day or one week it requires time and patience.

2. COMPANION:

Companion means any of your friends, classmates, group of people with similar likings or disliking, relative, near or dear ones to whom you or sometimes your households follows.

PG: Most of our decisions are impacted or influenced by our friends, nearby classmates. Don’t think that one of your companions opts for any particular institute for PG then you must need to follow his or her footsteps. Don’t go with an empty mind to prepare your data and then with mutual understanding both could be or couldn’t be together. So don’t try to force either way for friends.

JOB: In job it is really important to be a sincere, hard-working guy during duty hours. A companion may play a big role to get you in the job if he is employed somewhere. But he may refer you if you have the required skills. Here, companion only with you as like others because duty timings, shift, and area of work may be different.

Competitive Exams: For the competitive exams I must say a trend is going on. That because of your friend adopted one banking or MPSC course you opted for it. The most important thing I will mention that, rather than the same likings or disliking with your friend you must ensure to build your career in the competitive world, then only enter  that arena. It requires patience, passion, and time schedule accordingly.

3. OPPORTUNITY:

PG: For PG, search for a different institute where you can get admission. For this, you require a detailed list of colleges, maybe state wise list, different discipline in which Post-graduation is provided. Take help from any of alumni students, college teachers, well-wishers to find out a suitable institute. Nowadays more number of colleges provide PG in a different discipline.

JOB: Talking about the job, yes you have to be a proper opportunist. Because the most typical thing is to get the first job. For that, you have to prepare your resume with your skills. Resume mainly covers academic curriculum, objective, ELP, Training, Computer skills, Participative certificates, personal information, and any other extracurricular achievement in a brief manner. After that, you have to submit the resume to some prospective companies or to college, any alumni, or to a friend. You must be preparing yourself to work at any positions, locations irrespective of duty hours.

Competitive Exams: People often get confused about the competitive exams field. They are willing to do prepare for the exams on the side and on others don’t want to remain aside from the rest. I suggest here, don’t judge what others think?, you have to attend one regular library for studies. Those who wish to prepare must go for the section they wish to prepare. It is either the Banking sector, UPSC, SSC, MPSC, or any government post. Be preparing yourself for any upcoming position among the all. 

4. PLAN:

It applies a systematic approach to achieve your goal.

PG: With concern to the PG you must prepare according to different institutes criteria where one will go for PG and Ph.D. Check the requirement of the GATE score. Because in certain institutes like ICT Mumbai just clearing the GATE couldn’t assure you a seat. So check out for last year cut off. Also check out the criterion for different colleges and could you fit in it. Friends all this information will be with you during your seventh sem. Only. As you have some time during ELP so start preparing from there itself. Also, there is more competition in the institutes having a brand identity in the market.

JOB: In terms of the job you have to plan according to duty hours, location at which you have to stay, transportation if any. Though you have the reference do not take into granted anything. Focus on the interview. Before the interview at any company focus on their products, plants, history and new advancement, role you have to perform. You must take the help of anyone who is good in terms of a specific domain. I just gave you a piece of advice until and unless you have you get confirmation on the mail or through company offer letter don’t reveal that you got selected in so and so company. Because I saw many people who confirmed during the interview but couldn’t get the offer letter.  During the initial phase don’t ask for different facilities. Because once you perform facilities are on your way.

Competitive Exams: With concern to the competitive exams, plan your calendar year. You must be aware of the exam pattern, previous question pattern with the use of reliable sources. Forget about social gatherings, just do your preparations. Some might opt for a job and part-time study. It typically depends on the self-commitment of the candidate.  During the journey, you must be equipped with patience because efforts may not have shortcuts. I have seen many people who are achieving success when they are working in some of the organizations or as an assistant professor in college. It clearly depends on the concept, applications, skills, judgment power, and ability to sustain the pressure.

5. EVALUATION:

PG: The most important thing I have seen in many students till the completion of PG they are not sure what to do next. Some might come to a college professor, some for Ph.D., some into industries, and some will again prepare for competitive exams or else own startup. I clearly say one thing you must be aware of the College campus and placement scenario. For that, you do one thing before taking admission. Take information from the seniors who are there. If no one then checks the list of last year admitted students or any one's name. For contact details of his or her check with social media platforms. You definitely get information about the college and its reputation in the industry. Also, take the information from two to three sources to avoid biases. For the entry-level quality and production, job company may prefer a graduate candidate than PG.

JOB: Search for different related industries. If you have any references then use it. Takedown the proceedings after the interview from time to time. Don’t limit yourself to only specific industrial areas. Make friends during the training phase, these contact must be helpful to you. If you require a job then do your Inplant Training with all sincerity and you may get the job therein. Also, there is one major advantage as till you get PDC you have work experience of at least 3-4 months. During that time its your moral responsibility to look for others who need a job. A certain company takes time to reveal the results so wait and watch for the same. Use different sources to get a job as it may be possible to get it from one or another one. Once you selected to be there till at least one year i.e. a countable experience. Also one thing I must say express your gratitude to every single individual when you got the job.

Competitive Exams: During preparation for competitive exams don’t spend too much time on thinking about the future. I may suggest use of social media to a small extent only as it may distract you from your goal. Believe me practice, daily routine and regularity in study matters a most. Make a deadline for the preparation and number of attempts you go for. If by any chance you couldn’t succeed then opt for industrial options. As if you have the perfect base then with the job on hand you could go well in terms of competitive exams.

SUMMARY:

With concern to the topic I am concluding following important points.

1.   Don’t get confused after graduation regarding what to do next?

2.  Those who opt for PG, shortlist top colleges, their criteria, placement then only go with it. You may enter into the Academics in different colleges, B voc colleges, in R and D. But without preparation don’t go for PG. Because I have seen students who after PG join the industry at the same pay scale of Graduate student. 

3.  Friends if you wish to go in to industry then don’t go for post graduation. Directly enter into any industry with references, relatives, and college’s assistance or by own self. Be there at least for 1 year.

4.  Those who wish to pave their career in Competitive exams do that from second year itself. Also I seen students from Industry and academics prepare for the exams. So prepare accordingly with time schedule and full of dedication and commitment.
