Lets talk about normal scenario prevalent in India about 5 to 10 years back :
Education stream was decided by parents
First internship was forced by college
First job was decided by college
Further job changes were decided by circumstances. Sounds familiar? Yes, this is pretty much the scenario all across India since last few generations. People used go to lengths to ensure this. I have seen a old man professing that his new born grand daughter will become a great Doctor !
But there is a big change in how we have started thinking as a society although in a underwhelming numbers. Now students start thinking on professional lines starting from school level itself. During my interactions with students all across the country, a good number of them have questions for career choices, options, skill attainment, aptitude, interest and many more. I have also written else where on how to make informed career choice. The basics for making this choice are:
Interest : Make a wise choice, chose the one which can be commercialized. Aptitude : Check here Career Assessment
Market : Check whether your prospective job/industry will last long enough. College :
Does it have a course of your choice? And is the course curriculum developed dynamically to cater to industry needs. Does the university have required infrastructure like labs, libraries, equipment, software to support the training. Does the university have the qualified and high quality research based culture and competent faculty. Does the university have diversity of students? It is necessary for developing right sensibilities, cross cultural team work and interpersonal skills. Does the university train you not only in required skills but also in professional enhancement? Does the university give language training? Does the university have industry connect? Does the university have the PLACEMENTS? Co-Curricular activities an events for developing overall personality and networking skills? Does the university provide exposure to students via regular industry interactions, visits, internships etc. Does the university have international collaborations for enhanced international exposure to students? Does the university have strong alumni network? This is one of the most important ones, if the Alumni of university is happy and connected to their Alma mater, it means it has done a great job
And voila ! You have your answer!
