People get desperate when it comes to finding a perfect job in India. They upload their credentials, their certificates, their CVs anywhere and everywhere. But according to a well-renowned teacher and scholar, there is a better way to get a job – you just have to join LinkedIn, fill in your details, things you are good at and most importantly, the kind of job you are looking for. 

LinkedIn has been around for a while now but people saw it as a commercial/corporate Facebook – well, even if that was the case, it should have made sense for job seekers to make an account on LinkedIn and stay in contact with business owners, serial investors, startups, etc. 

The portal is not only helpful for people who are desperately searching for jobs in India but also for companies and businesses who want eligible, passionate and career-driven employees working with them. With LinkedIn, they can easily filter the candidates and contact the ones they see think will fit the working structure of the company and will be an important cog. 

Widely known as the social network of the professionals, LinkedIn has gained popularity for being easily accessible and also due to the fact that both recruiters and job seekers are available on the platform.
‘Today, LinkedIn has more than 500 million members, which is not a small number if you think that the whole platform is only for professional contact.’ - Nirmal Singh Lotus

The benefit of being on LinkedIn goes both ways – job seekers get to be in contact with the companies they want to work in and employers get the chance to bring down the cost by hiring people they think will be helpful rather than investing time and money on countless interviews every day.
After the portal gained so much popularity, Facebook, like always, is trying to bring in the same structure – a portal where you can connect with the employers through one single Facebook profile.
Facebook can surely dethrone LinkedIn if the whole campaign is approached the way it should be and with a huge user base to back that idea up, it won’t be a surprise if Facebook actually did affect the popularity of LinkedIn in the coming years. But till then, the best platform to seek a job in India is undoubtedly LinkedIn.

 If you are one those who want to change your job or want to start a career after completing your graduation, make sure you are on LinkedIn. - Nirmal Singh Lotus

Multitudes Apply For NEET Coaching Centres

The Centre makes it mandatory for all aspiring medical students to appear for and pass the NEET exam, and that sees a number of seat aspirants thronging to the coaching centres. Until recently, coaching centres only catered to CBSE students but since now the state students have to pass the exam to be eligible to appear for medical seats, the numbers had incredibly shot up. “We haven’t started classes yet. We’re still enrolling students but there is almost a 50 per cent increase in number of students enquiring,” said an owner of a coaching centre in West Delhi. Many-a-places, there is a limit on the number of students per batch so even if the number of aspirants increase, it still would not see a change in the number of students in the class. “We only take a maximum of 45 students, so we’re not accepting any more. But this time, the volume of calls I turned down was much higher than last year,” said the director of Pioneer Academy, Raja Rajasekaran. Most coaching cen
