Role of Self-Selling in Job Search
Role of Self-Selling in Job Search We all want a career whether in private, government, business and entrepreneurship etc. to lead an affordable and respectable life. Most of us don't know how to look for jobs. We are never taught how to do this. Our training and life experience never prepare us for it. Some people with the same or less qualification & knowledge are well placed and advance in their career compared to others with higher qualification and knowledge. We leave it to luck but in reality these people have mastered the technique of self-selling in career. Each one of us can do it and the need is only to be well aware of the changing scenarios of the job market and master the art of self-selling along with acquiring the knowledge and experience. http://winentrance.com/news/Role-Self-Selling-Job-Search.html

Choosing your Business School
Choosing your Business School The choice of a business school matters much
We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence is not an act, but a habit”. On unique aspect of management education is that the institution from which you qualify is significant in deciding your professional prospects. Thus the need for choosing the right business school for pursuing your management studies. But how do you know which are the best schools? There are some practical methods we can follow in identifying the school that matches our need. Some of our popular journals often publish the ranking of business schools in the country. They give overall ranking, as well as ranking based on certain aspects such as placement history, faculty, infrastructure, and fees. We should not be blindly carried away by any one ranking. But if we peruse a few rankings by different agencies, we would be able to get a fair picture. Another method is to watch the placement record of different business schools. Most of the good schools publish their placement records on their web sites. The type of organizations that select students and the salaries offered to them give us some Indication of the reputation and quality of the school. It is a wise idea to gather information from the employers` choice of the institutions for campus selection. http://winentrance.com/news/Choosing-your-Business-School.html
