Hello all,
Please help me, after completing b.tech in 2016 in Electronics and communication Engineering, I joined BPO sector as I was not good at practical also my teachers do not even have knowledge how to run any program, they only provided bookish knowledge which only helped me to pass the exam.
Now I am completely messed up in my life, my father passed away in 2017 and mother also left me in 2010.You can also raise questions about my decisions but I am writing this with lot of hope.
Now, I want to switch this BPO job as I am just an associate for about 4 years, Only upgraded to senior associate but still an associate. Initially I thought it is because I have lack of skills but later I realised it's not about skill but my passion is not inclined with this job.
For some days I got motivated and do amazing work and after that my motivation goes down.
It is very hard time for me to find out my passion but I actually able to realize that I am good at research skills, like if you given me anything and want me to check the details about it, I find my interest in it. I also can relate too much to the finance sector but don't know what should I do?
Please share what should I do at this time, what are the available options for me to switch my career or if I can do any course to get the Job. The only concern for me, companies will treat me as a fresher and may give me less package. I am currently 29 years old and unmarried so I don't have any responsibility.

A career cluster is group of careers that share common features. If you like one job in a cluster, you will probably find other jobs in that cluster that you will like as well.
E.g. Health cluster- professionals of this cluster help people lead healthy lives. Some work directly with people some don't. This cluster contains job roles like Doctors, Medical sonographer, pharmacy aide, medical transcription, physiotherapists, nutritionists, and lifestyle coaches.
Stay educated!! 😊
Thanks

Are the Career Aptitude tests 100% accurate?
Devi Sunny
I am a Mentor certified in Global Career Counselling. I am helping students and young professionals in...
There are many Career Aptitude Assessment tools, from free tests to paid, from specific theory-based to AI-driven, currently available in the market.
If you want to know the right tool, it's often tricky unless thorough research is done. Yet, finding an accurate test is even more difficult because results vary from test to test.
So how do we know a test is accurate?
The results are often a reflection of yourself, and the results should bring out your interests themselves. Certain times some strengths are highlighted, which you may not have noticed yet.
Also, as you upgrade yourself with skills and knowledge, the results would slightly shift, but a general trend would remain. Career tests can be thus considered an assurance for the decisions you have made for yourself or as a direction indicator if you cannot decide for yourself.
The results, however, need to be continuously compared with the job market relevance and should be compact with your particular constraints, if any.
Talking to people with exposure in specific fields will help you understand the course you may want to take. Platforms like Quora can be used to ask questions.
However, taking help from a career guide will give new perspectives as they would have gone through many such cases and can share with you related decisions made.
Best Wishes for a bright future!

Why Are That Brilliant 5% Always Left Behind?

Be it in our school, our office or, in our life, we often come across some who are struggling to keep up to the expectations.
Have you thought about them?
They are lovely human beings, but somehow they are a misfit in the group.
Do you know why?
It's because they are not in their fair playground. They look misfit, as they haven't yet find the right area of their strength.
Why do you think it happens to them?
They lacked information, they lacked the motivation to think differently, and they couldn't take risks. Sometimes it also happens that they know their strength, but the alternative is unaffordable for them. Or, by the time they found their playground, it was too late for them.
Have you been in such a situation?
It is a terrible situation to be in. But there is always a way out by knowing the strength, aptitude, and interests and getting promoted to a new role.
How does it feel?
Like a winner? Here is a chance to help such people in your life who are currently left behind.
Career counselling gives the platform for people who are left behind to discover themselves and find their fair playground.

It is expected that 50% of the existing careers will disappear in the next five years. This will be even more critical in the coming years, as experts suggest that people may have to change four to five verticals during their entire career as we are entering into a VUCA (Volatile, Uncertain, Complex and Ambiguous) world.
In this context, a person must have a clear understanding of their interests and abilities to identify four or five related verticals on which they could focus. Even if there are tumultuous changes, they can learn to survive during the turbulent times and succeed, as these verticals align with their interests and abilities.
A well thought out career decision taken after assessing the interests and abilities of students and aligning it with their career will help the students to enjoy their work, which will quickly translate into success later.
We must educate the parents and teachers not to mention the students on the roles and responsibilities, the skills required, kind of preparation needed to succeed, courses to pursue, the demand or otherwise of the careers they like, level of practice needed to get into the vertical, etc. of the traditional as well as emerging careers.

Choosing Technical Writing as Your Career
Raghuram
Technical writing is becoming a highly-paid and equivalent to any other development or quality assurance positions in the software business. In other industries, it has decent pay. As a technical writer, you need to have the passion for learning new technologies and gaining expertise in your related industry for which you develop content.
When you work as a technical writer, you will ramp up the product/project quickly and develop the content (help documentation, release notes, whitepapers, brochures, datasheets, etc.). You need to follow a concrete process to build and deliver the content to the intended audience (here it is for the customers).
If you are passionate about learning new technologies and have decent English writing skills (can be average in English Grammar), you can shine as an excellent technical writer. Society for Technical Communication - India Chapter (STC India) conducts a survey every year and found that a technical writer earns the median salary of Rs.13 lakhs/annum in his lifetime. Also, the salary hike is from 7 to 10% approximately.

Adoption of Scientific Method for Choosing Career - Need of the Hour
Goutam
A career is born in public, talent in privacy. - Marilyn Monroe.
Nowadays, courses and jobs trends are changing very fast with the latest challenges and technologies; maybe we can name it as an era of Evolution of Careers and Jobs. It is essential to (a) choose a career which suits you and (b) should know the traits to become most successful in the same.
With the ever-changing surrounding, it is becoming essential for an individual to prepare himself/herself to adapt and cope up with the changes. We all face obstacles and challenges in life but keeping the right focus, and a positive attitude always helps in moving forward.
But unfortunately, this is not happening. In the quest for better than the other, we forget that every child is different and every child has the right to choose his/her Career. Just giving birth doesn't give one the right to decide a child's Career. When we push our child for any career option, do we ever analyze the type of skills he/she may need for that Career? Probably a BIG NO, because we even don't know. Even in ancient time, society and state never use to interfere with the education system and its administration. To get an education, a child had to leave home and live with a teacher in a gurukul for the entire duration of his studies.
Why are many parents unable to play their role in helping a child choosing the right direction?
Seeing the crisis among students, an increasing number of suicides, increasing stress among students, parents' hit and trial method of selection of Career for their child, unnecessary pressure from parents and coaching classes, all leads to chaos in a student's life. We can't afford to lose them as they are our future.
In our current education system, marks, grades and certificates are the only measurements of a person's ability. We forget that the most crucial thing called Life Skills gives the capability to an individual to deal with these challenges with a positive attitude and conquer them efficiently. Even some schools are taking care of them and share the result with parents, but as parents, Are we using them to understand the qualities of the child? What is the harm in suggesting some more manageable career goals? It is always wise to have an easy and convenient career goal and achieve success rather than challenging goals that may lead to failure.
Nowadays, we are just pushing the students to achieve a career without knowing their inherent qualities properly. A career selection needs the combined analysis of Aptitude, Interest and Personality. With a combined index, we can suggest career clusters and suitable career options. In this way, we not only increase their success in career goal but also will be to help them avoid going through unnecessary stress and pain.
Psychometric Test deals with the assessment of child's Interest, Personality and Aptitude combined. Psychometric tests are a standard and scientific method used to measure individuals' mental capabilities and behavioural style. Psychometric tests are designed to measure candidates' suitability for a role career based on the required personality characteristics and aptitude (or cognitive abilities) along with interest. This test will generate a complete report for the child, and as a parent, you can always go through the report with the help of a career counsellor.
This is high time. Before suggesting a career to a child, it is crucial that as a parent understand the life span of the profession. Just seeing the trend today, one can't merely predict the nature of the job after a couple of years. Give every child, time to think, explore, understand and decide based on the test so that they should understand the requirement for what they would like to become and that will allow them to fill the gap. That will help them know the importance of Career, the level of competition they need to do with the outer world. Then you see the Miracle. Just hard work will not be enough, then a rickshaw puller does more hard work than anyone. Teach them to blend hard work with smart work. Help them with scientific methods. That will ease their effort, reduce the stress and then they will be able to focus better on the career goal.
Remember, Career is a lifetime goal. Whatever you are going to select as a career, it will be with you actively till retirement and passively throughout life.
