Does every Jobseeking Abhimanyu have a Chakraview?
Winning a war is not just about staying alive; it is about killing the competition.
There are fortunately two renowned schools of war management offering their expertise in the secret of this job market Chakraviewha.
Gurus from the A Business schools say that success lies in the review of the Chakravyuh. The view from the generals’ tent gives many options for better MIS (management info systems)
Those from the B Business schools say that success lies in the retreat from the Chakraviewha. Well, if you do not know how to get out, if may be wiser to focus on your retreat rather than on your funeral.
Both are absolutely right.
The Indian Job-seeker is worried. If what the pundits say about the secret of successful job hunting is true, then why exactly is no one explaining what this Chakraview is ?
Perhaps the Jobseeker is only bewildered because in this job hunting Mahayudh there are more generals than foot soldiers? Other-wise who would design this crappy formula for job hunting that requires a rocket scientist for a translator?
When did this job hunting business get to be a business?
I do not know? But I suppose ever since the resume ceased to be a resume.
Ever since we began to feel incompetent in describing what we do and what we are good at- just because we could not fit it into popular keywords.
Perhaps Indian Jobseekers need to shift their focus from the battle field technologies on- How do we get in? The right education? The right resume keywords? Mass mailing resumes? Mass contact of placement consultants ? Job alerts from famous websites? Resume blasting, resume bombing, resume land mining and resume cannoning?
How to get in is not as important as “How to get found?’ Yes the pundits forget to mention that getting found is the most important factor in the job hunt.
Do we need an expert to tell us how to get found? The age old battle cry of the jobseekers has always been- I am here, come and get me if you can! Only the platforms have changed.
Job hunting still remains the same old game of winning – over everyone else.
