Not Connecting: Well if you’re not accessible or reachable what is the point in having an account set up in top social media sites. There is ‘n’ number of professional social media sites and by far the best is Linkedln, so use it to join groups and follow big companies on it. Send personal emails to individuals, asking them to connect with you. At work place too, connect with your collogues and even with other departments. More importantly attend company events; meet new people from the industry. And never restrict yourself to people at your level. Help yourself to gain confidence in meeting the top executives in other departments, and other key people because all these things will teach you a lot of invaluable lessons and help you gain exposure.



Quiting For Money: The Gen next is all dependent on instant remedy. In fact at present money influences most of our decisions. But running after it, can only guarantee you with uncertainties in the long run. The ideal way to go about this is to choose best companies in your industry and don’t settle for companies just to work. The company you choose determines your personality, so lend your name to the company that you can associate with. At the end of the day your job description, your experience, you’re on-the-job training should all come in line when you make the next move.
