Destination DU

Yesterday while reading my newspaper in the moring i came accross an article regarding the hardship faced by the students of Northeast while going for admissions in Delhi University. There it was mentioned that every year thousands of students flock to the Capital, but lack of information regarding the courses offered by DU and problems regarding the whole process from application to submission of forms leave them confused. So, keeping this in mind i have tried to bring all the relevant websites available on the web for the help of the students.

THE CAREER CHOICE

In today’s world, people who are just about to walk the career path are in for luck because they have many ways and options waiting for them.
With the change in economy there are always doors open for an employee to change over for a better opportunity and thus leaving the organization always on the lookout for newer employees.

Influences on our Career Decisions
In the age of information, when we have all the information we need in our fingertips, then why are our career decisions been swayed by our friends, relatives or advertisements etc. Thus, we are always influenced into taking a career decision suggested by the above sources, without proper verification and also not giving due consideration to other alternatives that may be available.

YOU Decide
The only person who should decide on a career for you is “YOU”. While deciding the most suitable career for us we must take into account our likes and dislikes, our hobbies, our values etc. Taking into account all this aptitudes we can create groups containing certain types of careers. For example :
1.Practical Work : This line of career is for those who have self confidence and manual skill. Example- Doctors, Engineers etc.
2.Physical Labour : This line of career is for those who love the outdoors and posses physical stamina. Example- Sportsmen, Policemen etc
3.Creative Jobs : It requires us to have an imaginative and artistic mindset, verbal ability etc. Example- Fine Arts, Music etc.
4.Blue Collar Jobs : This line of careers are for those who are good at managing people, planning, promoting etc. Example- Business Management, Banking etc.
5.Social Jobs : This jobs are for those who love to get along with new people and make friends with them. Example- Customer Care, Teachers etc.

Thus, we can group the different careers according to our different aptitudes, but we should keep in mind that some careers may overlap more than one group. The above grouping should help us to some extent in choosing the right career path for ourselves and not going by someone else’s aspirations and expectations. Without taking into account our aptitudes, chances are that we will be mediocre and a very insecure professional in this competitive world.
