2. Recently I hired an intern in my company. A fresh mind with enthusiasm
and the can do approach but after one week, today I am feeling the dire
need to first inform all the candidates who appeared in the interviews on
how to develop work related skills, because what we learn at our
educational institutions is a bit different from what we do at work. Yes it
applies but in a different way, as to how we professionals call it, practical is
different than theory!
Work related skills not only help you in scoring better image in front of
your boss but also lets you stand out from your peers. These are the
essential basic skills that set you on a path to profound professional
success, these skills act similar to how a strong base can support a high rise
building.
3. HERE ARE FEW TIPS ON HOW CAN FRESH GRADUATES
IMPROVE THEIR PROFESSIONAL AND PERSONAL SKILLS:
Seek expert advice:
The best way possible to learn a new skill is to talk to the
experts in that industry. Naturally it will be very difficult to
talk to them; thanks to the internet technology you can watch
and listen to online interviews that are published on famous
online media.
4. NETWORKING IS CRUCIAL:
In order to work with best you need to be with the best.
Networking with people within an industry not only
provides you better career opportunities but also provide
you the right exposure to what is in and what is out from
your industry. Result, you remain updated!
5. READ BOOKS
What youth of today lack the most is reading habit. If they say
books are best friends of a man then they say it for a reason. A
daily reading habit not only provides you with essential
information but also improves your vocabulary, thus your
communication skills gets better and also keeps you abreast
with any changes that are or going to happen in an industry.
6. ATTEND CONFERENCES AND WEBINARS:
Conferences and seminars are a great way to get your hands on
latest knowledge and network with people from the same
industry. Avid professionals know the importance of networking
and they make an effort to do it through conferences. If you
don’t have much time to travel internet still also offers a great
way to attend them; Webinars!
7. MAINTAIN A BLOG:
Maintaining a blog will not only help you kill free time and make it
useful by contributing to the society in a good way. When you right and
express you not only improve your writing skills but also comes in you
the story telling power and your words teaches you to persuade people
through them. Not to forget the fame and fortune blogging can bring to
you in the long run, it has evolved into a separate industry now and
bloggers around the globe are earning a fortune through it.
