Placementor-TeamSuccess in a career does not depend on just your grades, it depends on how well your inherent talents suit to the requirements of the career you choose. As a graduate or a post-graduate student, or some one
with just a few years of work experience, you need to understand a few things before you embrace a career for long.
With so many career opportunities springing up, you have a right profession tailor made for you; where you can excel, enjoy and enrich
All you need to do is to identify it and prepare for it.
CareerMentor
helps you do just that
You can be really, really successful if your choose a career to which your heart, brain and soul are best aligned
Bill Gates, Michale Jordan and Mel Gibson would probably have had worst of the careers had they chosen acting, software and Basket ball respectively

Thank God they did not mix up |

Very few of us actually know what is best for them from career stand point.
Mostly we are forced to do things by parents, relatives and teachers (with best
intentions of course). By the time, we realize what is good for us, we may
have spent a lot of time in a job that just does not suit us.
If you put in that extra effort before choosing career paths, you can be that much more successful. We
at
Placementor
have worked out a solution.
We looked at career selection
scientifically and created a solution
that gives
you superb
results.

Some of us glamorize a particular profession based on some
childhood experiences. It may not be the best possible profession for us.
As one of our team mates puts it
"I
always wanted to become a professional cricketer,
Until I was bowled that wicked bouncer" |

You must build your career on 4 pillars

This is very crucial. 30 years back when your mummy and
daddy were searching for a job, they had only a few options really.
-
If they were bright, they would go for engineering,
medicine or Government services.
-
If they were all right and academically inclined, they would get in to teaching
in a government college.
-
All others, would get in to clerical positions.
Well, there were exceptions, but most followed the same
path. The situation is very different now.
While these options are still available, with the advent of outsourcing, a whole
new set of jobs are created. You need to understand that these jobs are
exciting and demand skill sets that are not taught in our curriculum.
Whether it is software, IT enabled services or Bio-technology, the set of jobs demand skills and aptitudes that are very different from conventional jobs. Even in conventional sectors like banking, the technology is changing the nature of jobs and skill requirement.
There are around 2 million graduates coming out every year and approximately
1.5 million new jobs are created in the emerging areas ALONE!!!
So, the first step towards establishing a bright career is to understand this
scenario. Learn exactly what is there on the table. Know that, whatever
your strengths, weakness are, there is an opportunity lying there. You
just have to tap it.
 
Exactly what qualities make you suitable
for a job?
Scientists all over the world worked on this issue and they do have
some answers. Any HR executive, when testing you for a
profession in his/her company will look for the following:
 |
Talent |
 |
Aptitude |
 |
Attitude |
 |
Domain skills |
 |
Personality skills |
There are methods to measuring each one of these factors.
So, you have to go through a series of assessments to carefully
analyze your inner strengths and competencies and map it with
available career options to find out which is the best career for
you.
 
While some of these skills are innate, you can pick
up the others, fine tune them and use them through out your career
for best advantages.
For any job that you want to take up today, you definitely need to
have very good
 |
Communication
skills |
 |
Personality and Interpersonal skills that enable you to work with people all
around the world |
 |
Leadership and entrepreneurial skills |
 |
Computer and Internet skills |
 |
Aptitude |
 |
Domain
expertise |
Thank god, These can all be learned and
mastered!!!
Whatever be the method that works for you, learning on own through
books and other material, taking classes or picking them up
indirectly through friends and family You must ensure that you have
these skills at sufficient levels to get in to a career and do well
afterwards
 
Here is a truth that you must know:
If you search right, you will find a company that will love to have you.
You must choose a company based on your competencies, skills, attitudes and
talents.
There will be a group of companies that you must approach, apply and pursue.
Once you narrow them down, you must do enough research on their activities and
build a resume for them. Your resume must tell the company how great a fit
you are to them. If you did the above three right, it is a simple process
to create a resume like that.
Once you have built the right skills, identified that right companies and
prepared the right resume the battle is almost won. Just apply to them,
meet them and impress them
Well you will be surprised that these companies will be
impressed because you are yourself
Let us restate the four pillars on
which you build your career
- Understand the opportunities
-
Understand yourself
-
Bridge the gaps
-
Apply to the right company at the right time
Have your career built on these four
pillars and enjoy a great future! 
To some of you the process may look very easy.
But to most of you it may mean spending a lot of time in several
unknown territories.

you build the 4 pillars without even realizing it.
Through a series of training, counseling and assessments, we
make you get in to the perfect career even without realizing

had to earlier push students on stage to make presentations.
Now we have to pull them from the stage as they are not
stopping talking. They don't even know that they
changed so much! Dr. Narasimha Rao
SVNE college (Tirupati) |
We wanted to build one process that achieves all the four steps effectively.
- We worked for over 75,000 hours before creating the perfect process.
Throughout the process, we published our findings in journals, newspapers
and taken feedback from parents and students.
- Implemented it successfully on a few thousand people.
- We have worked with students with rural, urban, technical, non-technical,
middle, higher and lower income groups.
We were amazed with the results.
| Initially we used to hesitate to talk about ourselves, but now we feel proud to talk about ourselves (after analyzing our strengths, achievements, and future aspirations) Atul Gandhi
KDK Engg (Nagpur) |
We then approached training and placement officers of colleges and HR executives
of companies.
| In
the new trend the companies are looking at job ready employees from day
one. Small companies don’t have time or financial resources to train a
fresh graduate for long period to make job savvy. So they expect
to induct job ready students , who deliver results immediately. Mr.V S Rao
MD, Orissa Power Consortium Ltd. |
| When we ask faculty to make presentations they hesitate, whereas you (students) are making presentations even without being asked. Mr. Gururaj
Principal, KITS |
