I have gone through the article in detail. Its beneficial for those who are looking for higher positions. One thing I would like to highlight is all the companies including corporates were influence plays a big role. Its my practcal experience at places were interview held very well. I was almost selected & even called for final interview's for almost three to four times but supprisingly no reply after that. My overall judgement is either the post is filled by with influencial candidate i.e through known person (irespective of what so ever experience he or she has) or the person interviews is not capable of interviwing. In most of the cases specialy in small companies the HR manager takes the first interviwe who does not have proper experience & reject the candidate. Person with insufficient knowledge are placed on managerial post in most of the small companies through influence which affects the whole industry. Most of the time even promotions,increments are given on the basis of influence. Employees close to Directors or General Managers gets good increments & promotions too. Every one cannot except the jon in Multinationals or corporates & had to rely on small private limited companies.There is no professionalism or I would say a decency maintained by the Managers of such companies.In such cases experience people either miss the good opportunity or are deprived of their rights such as promotions or increments. This is the fact prevailing in todays industry.
many companies including marketing co. is part of fraud.....they ask ur resume and vital details in grab of false naukri cites,matrimonials,astrology,gifts,lotteries,so on and so forth......beware....

Just being in the Air force doesn't mean that you have great integrity, honest & hard working. There are attributes that every individuals have and agree they vary in scales, but definitely they are not organizational based.

Well most companys would like to understand what you were doing in the past 10 years to keep urself mentally challenged. A 10 year break reflects your personality which might go against u
Talent with the right networking skills can do more to one who is a fresh passout or an experienced campaigner. Talent is like a bus and networking is the road. The right buss takes you to the right destination. The more one tries to understand concepts of finding the right job, the more complicated it becomes. So the best way would be learn right, apply right and project right.
Just because it works in the west due to their sincerity it will not work in India as it will be purely doen for commercial purpose to make money and loot aspurants
how can he appoint college fresher from reputed college???? every one kns that most students bunk classes & there attendence will not be more then 60 % ??? so whats the use of giving preference to them to others who work from scrap (hard work) & with there experience can give good results to company.
day to day experience plays more role then going through theory.
another thing is todays educational system its cost you damn to get a degree from a reputed college. so how can people (low income group ) compete. we should give importance to few factors.
