How to Deal with Confusion After Graduation and Land the Perfect First Job






As soon as college is over, and in some cases even way before it is over, students wonder what fate holds for them once they graduate. This is the all important moment that they have been waiting for years, and yet, this is also the moment when they are the most confused and clueless, if they aren’t fully prepared to step out. The world outside the walls of college is enormous, and what students see now, standing at the gates, is just the tip of the iceberg.
For students who already know what they want to do after graduation, stepping out is a relatively carefree affair. Be it higher studies, going to a foreign university, taking up the family business, or even something as ‘unusual’ as taking a break; they are clear about how they want to spend their post-graduation time, and are relieved from the pressure to figure things out before time runs out. But for those who aren't already clear about what they want to do, it is going to be a difficult time, and a ‘jobs for freshers’ Google search isn’t going to make it easy.
The first thing that you need to remember and repeat to yourself over and over again, is that the ticking time-bomb you think is in your bag, is imaginary. Parents and relatives tend to put a lot of pressure on graduates to get a job immediately after they graduate. The belief being that, the sooner you start working, the higher your chances of climbing up the ladder. While this concept was true once upon a time, it’s obsolete now. Today, more than when, it is the where that matters. So, take your time to evaluate yourself, do some thinking, take career assessment tests, speak to your parents, counsellors, friends, and then decide on what your first step is going to be.
The second, and perhaps the most important thing to do, is self-evaluation. Once you are even fairly clear about what you want to do in the near future, there are many online apps and services like HireMee, LinkedIn, etc. that help you land a job. Expertise in a certain area is well-rewarded in the professional market, but it is hardly found in freshers. To be an expert in something takes experience and talent. While talent could be inborn, experience only comes with time. So, the key is to be versatile. During hiring season, versatility will give you an edge over other candidates, and in this growing competition, even a little edge matters a lot.

6 Signs You've Definitely Got the Job



6 Signs You've Definitely Got the Job       
 Sitting through a job interview is a stressful ordeal. Tensions run high and you begin to think of all the things that could go wrong. The key to acing your job interview is simple – be prepared for anything and most important of all, be confident and believe in yourself. If you have any doubts or queries about what steps to take next, seek out our campus recruitment assistance and let us help you make an informed decision about your career prospects. Once you’ve made the call and are ready to face the job interview, here are some signs you can look out for, to know you’ve definitely made the cut:

  1. A lot of smiles: If your interviewer is smiling a lot while making conversation, chances are he thinks you’re the right fit for the job. Try to keep the interviewer engaged in conversation and make sure it’s not a one-sided effort alone.
  2. Personal questions: If the interviewer asks a lot of questions about your personal interests, hobbies and your family, rather than just what you have mentioned in your resume, you can be at ease as he probably thinks of you as a good fit for the company. We suggest you too try to make conversation that is not solely about the job.
  3. Insights into the company: If you are being told about your job role in detail rather than just a few words, you can be sure that you have landed the job. It is unlikely that someone would waste any more time than necessary to explain your role to you. Take this as a good sign and start prepping for your new job. Our Skills Assessment Test will provide the recruiter with a better understanding of your strengths and weaknesses, so prepare accordingly.
  4. References: If you are being asked for references from your teachers and professors, you are at least in the running to be hired by the company. So, make sure you know exactly who you’d like to have as your references.
  5. Office tour: After the interview, if your potential boss decides to give a tour of the workplace, he probably sees you as a person sitting at one of those office desks in the future. So enjoy the tour and get ready to be hired.
  6. Duration: They say that within 10 minutes of an interview, the recruiter has already made up his mind about whether or not you are fit enough to be hired. So, if your interview runs for more time than that, chances are that you are a potential hire for the company, especially if the exchange of dialogue goes beyond just work.
