  parents and friends

Ambition Vs Reality

• A person is happiest when he chooses job that he
  loves
• Before making a career choice, take time to
  understand yourself, your likes and preferences
• Ambition can not be injected nor can it be
  imitated
• Parents attitude- the determining factor in
  shaping ones career goal

Conventional thinking

• To follow what the others do
• Inclination towards Medical or Engineering
  profession
• Possibilities of getting job abroad
• College means a University recognised by the
  Govt., without any reference to the acceptance of
  the courses by the recruiters

Let the students take decision

  village

Which career to choose?

• Tejinder is a doctor who has joined MBA coaching
  classes. "I did MBBS because my parents wanted me
  to but I find there is no money in it. An MBA
  will give me the qualifications to work in a
  multinational and live a decent life", he says.
  Thousands of students, including engineers from
  the premier institutes like the IITs, want to get
  into management for this reason.

8
Craze for civil services

  end up as teachers or clerks. The process wastes
  precious years of a person if only the aptitude
  was measured earlier, a person could be advised
  to do something else.

We need people who can "add value"

• Multinationals require people who can "add
  value". They do not want pen pushers.

  taking intelligent decisions.

  else.
