Your Job Search (Part-1): Become so good that they can’t neglect you.: Turn yourself from a fresher to a highly desirable, employable candidate - Tapa blanda

Sinopsis

As a Professor in Mechanical Engineering and life-coach, Brig Raghavendra Rao has been observing students graduating from college for over two decades. Whereas a handful get placed in the college itself (in campus interviews), most do not. The reason - although all students possess a “degree”, they are not “employable”. It was clear that no interviewer would pick them up unless they made an additional effort to acquire “employability” skills.With his military background as well as industrial experience, Brig Rao felt he could help these students - he had the “know-how”.Having interviewed thousands of candidates for management trainee positions in the Public Sector Company where he was a Director (and rejected most of them!), he was aware of what they lacked. Moreover, he was well versed with the training imparted by the Army to raw civilian students to cultivate their life-skills and talents and craft them into world class officer soldiers (he still teaches Cadets at the Cadets Training Wing of the Military College in Secunderabad where this is done). He had to simply put them together.This book is a “Do it yourself” guide for students to make themselves employable and attract jobs - instead of going after them.What exactly does it take for a student to stand out in a job interview? Is it his dress, his CV, how he speaks or simply the marks on his degree certificate? Obviously, all of them and some! You will have to read this book to find out.Just as an example, most freshers cannot speak correct English, fluently, confidently and persuasively; they fumble if you ask them a simple question requiring elementary thinking. On a higher plane, they cannot analyse a given situation, figure out the options available – and commit on any one of them because all of them have risks – and they are not used to taking risks. They are, as yet, not employable.This book is for those students. Simply put, it transforms them from freshers to employable candidates.Starting from the basic good habits any young man should develop, the book takes them through bad habits to discard, how to learn to speak fluently, persuasively and confidently (a skill most students lack woefully) and get into the habit of daily improvement and self-development.What interviewers look for in candidates, and how a student should systematically prepare himself for it has been described by Brig Rao in simple to understand detail – with examples and exercises.It is a must read book for all graduating students.This is the first part of a two book series. This, the first part, deals with “Developing the skills required before facing an interview” and the second, Part-2, deals with the “Process of searching for a job in a professional manner”.
