Fake Resume

01
May
2019

We all are thinking that we are the smartest one in the world

We all are most of the thinking that we are one the smartest person on the earth. Sometime we deal with the situation smartly and convert our motive into results however sometimes it becomes an example of over smartness.

Faking your resume is one of its kind of such over smartness. Many think that they will not be caught by doing so, however if they will then the organization will simply fire them right away!

Now a day most of the MNCs are having a parameter of BGC (candidate’s background verification process), which they cannot avoid. During BGC if there is anything RED flag, then it will be better for the candidate to be ready to serve the consequences.

In case if the project, the candidate was hired for is really critical and organization is not getting any other better resource than you, then there is a possibility that they will give you to time to clear the mess or confess it with some warnings and let you continue. However, the chances are very minimal.

So my two cents will be, if you are going to be a part of any organization and you have a plan to take this relationship for long time, then please be trustworthy and open with them.

Overlooking determined employee’s faults

26
Apr
2019

Determined employees are actually an asset to the employers, they are efficient, trustworthy, connected, understanding etc, however that doesn’t qualify them to make faults.

In my opinion as a leader or giude we should keep an eye of these faults to avoid them becoming a desister

Question is how do we do that because if we start micro management and keep on scolding them then it will impact the quality of output and rate of attrition may increase, this will impact the brand name in the market.

So to answer this, I believe we should keep discussing such faults with them in a positive and healthier way. This will help them improving their confidence over your leadership along with making them more attentive and sincere towards there actions.

Cheers!

What do you think about your Manager?

17
Apr
2019

I would like to help you understand the two types of managers, basically good and bad manager. Why am I doing so, because if you understand the root cause, it will be easier for you deal with the situation and you’ll become more confident while dealing with such managers.

Managers are the one who are having huge pressure from the top management and clients. Their course of action to tackle client issues and management pressure make them good or bad. Let see how;

Most common and everyone’s favorite topic “bad managers”. Reasons for a manager to be consider as bad manager;

  • I am a Manager and I am not supposed to do anything.
  • Not trusting the team members
  • Not sharing complete knowledge to the team
  • No transparency
  • Micro management (refer to my blog)
  • Nano management (refer to my blog)
  • Becoming bottle neck for all the activities
  • Single handling client communication
  • No segregation of duties
  • Overlooking the team’s personal growth
  • Not ready to accept his / her fault or lack of subject knowledge
  • Always worried about, if he misses anything
  • Putting team in front of the management during issues
  • Taking all the credit to themselves in case of success

Why all the above happen because of two reasons;

  • Comfort zone
  • Threat of losing position or job

On the other hand, due to “cost cutting” ghost, many companies are putting extra pressure over their managers to hire low CTC team members, get them trained and increase the output. Due to which such managers putting whole team on the fire line and they themselves sometimes find appeasement is the only path to save their position.

Now there is another type of managers and those are sometimes called good manager.

  • They make sure their team members are well trained
  • Assure proper personal and professional life balance of the team member
  • Plan and maintain proper learning curve for each team member
  • Keep on working with the team members to find out simplest and quickest way to tackle any situation
  • Keep an eye to their team members but not micro-managing them
  • Instead of waiting for appraisal meeting, they keep on giving feedback as and when required based on the right situation and time
  • They are making themselves always available for their team members
  • For them their team is the priority
  • Stand in front of the team as a shield in case of any escalation
  • Give credit to the team members in case of success

Now what makes these managers to do all above. Well there are again two reasons;

  • They always want healthy environment in the office and out of office
  • They don’t want their company’s brand name to be defamed due to attritions or client escalations

Cheers!

Ever thought about hiring cost to the company?

12
Apr
2019

General perception is that an applicant is the one who is bearing the cost of being interviewed and get hired to any organization. The applicant think that he/she is the one who spent money to reach to the interview venue, spent time, while waiting to get interviewed and remain patient during the interview session. Once the applicant through from all the processes and get rejected, he/she thinks that this is the interviewer who had rejected him/her otherwise they were capable enough to handle the challenges.

Being an applicant many of us will agreed with the rejected applicant’s thought. Some of us might think that they are better than this applicant until they get rejected by the interviewer and few will say, why have they called us if they don’t want to hire us?

Before we go further, let’s see what a third person’s thought over this situation;

  • Are companies or organizations are doing these interviews just for the sack of fun or they really want to hire someone?
  • Are companies having so much of free time to play hiring game?
  • Do they deliberately reject candidates?
  • They don’t want to hire a candidate until the reject many?
  • They don’t want to pay
  • They have ample amount of time

Now let’s see the other picture from the organization prospective. Organization want the hiring process should be as follows;

  1. Applicant applied for the opportunity in a company
  2. HR shortlists the application
  3. HR inquires about the shortlisted candidate
    1. HR finds Green data
      1. HR schedules the interview
    1. In case HR finds Black data
      1. HR will continue with other applications
  4. Selected candidates deployed to the resource pool.

Are the organizations spending money on these interviews?

Let’s take an example;

  • Suppose, Saatpro Group has vacancy of 15 Java developers, for its collaborating company C9Software pvt. Ltd.
  • HR has posted the vacancy’s information to various job portals and received 458 applications for this position.
  • Company HR has shortlisted 57 candidates for the interview

As per the process, total 4 rounds of interviews will be conducted for this position;

  1. HR round (25 minutes) – Cost Rs.200
  2. Technical round (35 minutes) – Cost Rs.800
  3. Manager round (15 minutes) – Cost Rs.1000
  4. Salary negotiation (25 minutes) – Cost Rs.200
  5. Total time and cost spend over one selected candidate will be approx. 100 minutes which costs approx. Rs.2200
  6. Total cost over 15 candidates – Rs.33000
  7. Training cost– Rs.10,00,000
  8. Approx. cost spent over remaining 42 applicants – Rs. 60,000
  9. Company will spend from Rs.1000 to Rs. 10,000 for every 15 selected candidates for the BGC followed by spending 10 to 20 more working days. Total cost – Rs.1,50,000

In case of Black BGC, company will be losing precious time, money and opportunity as the whole process takes almost 2 months to get it completed.

Imagine if the hiring organization gets the right candidate in first interview itself, well in that case an organization will save this expenditure and convert it into profit.

To conclude;

  • Organizations want to get the right candidate in the first slot
  • Interviewers are there to select the right candidate but not to reject
  • Interview sessions are not free for organizations; they had pay a hefty cost of it

Think these before concurring an interview.

Hope you agree?

Cheers!

Budget & Requirement

05
Apr
2019

Interesting heading, isn’t it? You got right where I am going.

Being from the IT world, it is a very common and well known scenario for me. Clients has their own assumptions and knowledge, based on that, they used to plan for the budget. Post deciding the budget sometimes clients do research a bit more however once they make up their mind and finalize the budget, it is hard to get it changed.

Lets talk the other side of the coin.

As soon as the client interact the vendor or the service provider about the requirement, the marketing technique, greed and brand name comes first in picture then other things, such as security, optimization, duration etc.

So during the requirement gathering, vendor helps their client by providing various of options, be it less or more useful for client. Till this stage all the conversation goes happily and both parties respond, talk to each other frequently until the cost presented to the client.

Dramatic factor suddenly makes the client to ignore the marketing team member of the vendor or if the budget matches with client’s budget then suddenly time crunch comes in picture, which forces the marketing team to complete the project ASAP.

In both the cases the pressure further passes to the developers or workers, their incentives, salary hike, working hours etc. for them if the project allocated to them then load of work and if the project doesn’t allocate then loosing job issue.

Getting back to the point Requirement and Budget, in some cases smart client used to exploit the vendor and in some cases vendors and their marketing team play smartly with the vendor.

Apart from all that, most of the time the vendors are actually providing right suggestions to the client and not ready to compromise the quality or brand name of themselves.

Only in this scenario, when both gets on the same page the desirable and quality results are achievable.

Hope you agree, don’t you?

Cheers!

April

01
Apr
2019

1st April

April is having its own significance compare to rest of the 11 months. December and January are having their importance for being at the end or at the beginning of the year, whereas April nether starts the year nor ends the year. On the other hand, it almost does the same. Think about the new budget year and April first will knock your head. So yes in that manner April does starts a year.

Let’s see why April moth is so unique.

All of us know about its 1st date and most of us know it as a Fool’s day. If we talk about the history, then it was started when April then was second month of the Roman Calendar was moved two steps down to fourth step and January promoted to 1st month of the year. This change might have made the start of this month as fool’s day.

If we talk about the financial year, then those who are happy with the new budget makes fun of those who are not happy or vice versa.  

Today the e-commerce is in boom, so every day and every moment considered to be converted in the form of business and earning, so do this day as well. There are various applications and accessories floating around to get most of it from this day.

The April 1st is also known for many other reasons, such as;

In 1918, the British Royal Air Force was founded (RAF)

In 1970, federal law was created for the Public Health Cigarette Smoking Act in the United States. It was designed to control the practice of smoking along with banning the cigarette advertisements on American radio and television.

Even the Nature also changes as April starts, but it is not making us fool though.

Due to financial year changes in India, the April 1st is also a bank holiday this year.

Cheers!!

Training, a very common word as well as very engaged word.

Today’s world is full with content and those who are part of today are very lucky in terms of getting all most all sort of trainings whatever they need and where ever they need.

It’s all together a different thing that personal training via an individual person or trainer can make more impact rather than an automated training session. The good part is that at least we have what we need and it totally depend on individual to individual how will s/he grab it.

We have also organized few training sessions in the past for non-corporate world and it was a challenge and fun with in.

Usually, when we have live training session, (here LIVE means not online but physical availability in the training centers) we simultaneously had to manage a lot of thing.

  2. Rehearse prior to appear
  3. Maintain the physical appearance
  4. Clear the throat
  5. Lose all the tensions, health issues and most difficult one is the smart phone

Find Your Hidden Skills

25
Mar
2019

Everyone born with a set of skills, some of us have unique skills and many of us have some unacknowledged or hidden skills.

How do I know what special skills do I have? This question makes us confuse about our own capabilities.

The illusion is that we know everything about ourselves, however the truth is that many of us doesn’t even know who they are and how important they could be.

How to tackle this situation, for me, there are two simple and quickest ways to identify it;

  1. Go back to your childhood and try recall what all you were good at and what all you were dreaming about your future
  2. Take opinion from others about yourself

The third option is little tricky one, that is monitoring ourselves and identify how can we value add.

Here in this short clip, we have tried to identify the same, lets slowly and patiently go through with it. Hope it will help you to identify a new YOU!!
