What’s more important?


Times are changing and so is the thought process and mindset of the people around us. The preferences of people are changing and that too with respect to almost every possible domain. While choosing or looking for a job earlier we always used to check the salary, the company is offering. This was applicable to every job sector; regardless it’s the bank jobs or a job in the marketing section of a private firm. But, now the scenario has changed, job seekers are more considerate about the environment and culture of an organisation rather than its salary package or the extra allowances offered. 

Nature of every job is different and so is the working culture and environment of every company across the world. The changing work culture and the requirement of creativity and innovation in every second field today has pushed for the demand of an interactive work place. The bank jobs in India are highly paid but, if the work culture of the respective bank is not nice, then the today’s youth prefer resigning from the job rather than sacrificing their individuality for the same. Also, a healthy and a positive work environment motivate the employees to work hard and give their best in terms of results. This is the main reason most of the MNCs have flexi work timings and provide creative and friendly work environment to its employees. A balanced approach towards work helps us to produce more fruitful results and yield better results at work.

So, before joining bank jobs, pharmaceutical, teaching, marketing jobs, media or online work, you must check the image of the company in the market in terms of its norms at work place.

Points to remember when doing a job search

Job hunting is said be one of the most important steps to go ahead in your career. The increase in the number of career options for students has allowed the candidates to land up owning the kind of job they want. Just out of the college, students look for Sarkari jobs or jobs in the government sector to have a long and a stable future. But, looking for the job and then appearing for the interview are two very different areas of concern.

There are few tactics you should know before you go for a job search:

• First of all dress in a decent manner. Your attire is the first impression on the basis of which the employer judges your personality.

• You should always give your best shot when appearing for the interview. An eye contact with the interviewer is a must. This shows your confidence.


• Do not fumble in between the interview. Never use a language in which you are uncomfortable. It’s not mandatory to always speak in English; you must only use the language you can speak fluently. Fumbling in between the interview gives a negative impression on the interviewer.

• You should try and not touch a topic, you are not sure of. Talking about irrelevant things will always annoy the interviewer.


• Be patient and answer thoughtfully.

If the HR person says that he will get back to you in some time then, in most of the cases it means that you are rejected. Almost every big employer extends the offer letter same day of the interview these days to save traveling time and to have quick joining of the candidate. Therefore, you should always act smartly and ask directly to the company if you are selected or not rather than wasting your time. Also, if the company asks time then you should immediately apply for some other openings.
