Subject: How to get a job?
Date: 13-Nov-2002
Question: I have completed my B.E. in Computer Science from Bangalore University in 1998. I joined as graduate trainee in BEML for 1 year. After that I was in search of job, I could not get a job till date. Presently I am staying in California. Here also it has become very difficult to get a job. I really need your advice. Thank you.
Answer: There is only one problem that is holding you from a job. That is of experience. You should some how strive to add to 'Experience'. In California, there are a number of companies. Meet an executive there and offer your services, even as a stipend less trainee. Get six months experience at least in the US. Hone your skills and computer fundamentals as they are going to ask you questions.

Check with your friends and relatives and let them assess you on your communication skills. If you lack these, work hard to hone up your communication skills as well before you present yourself. Bet smartly dressed. Wear some aroma and scent. Keep hair well groomed. If you do not know a subject do not try and bluff. Tell them you do not know. If you are guessing, tell them you are.
