Self help Mantra - How To Get Your Dream Career ? - Part 2



5 ESSENTIAL SKILLS :
Average to strong working knowledge of English both, written and oral, is essential in the globalised workplace. Keyboard typing, MS Office and emailing are basic skills for all jobs with prominent employers. Cultivate a range of IT skills to enhance your flexibility for a wider variety of dream jobs. 


6 ADAPTING TO CHANGE : 
Learning how to learn can be very useful in this era of rapid change. People who are curious and desire to keep up-todate will be in great demand. An employee who is able to apply new knowledge and technology efficiently to typical job duties assists the employer in meeting competitive challenges. 


7 TEAM SPIRIT :
Demonstration of teamwork skills is as important for recruitment as it is for sports. 


8 SHOW ENTHUSIASM :
An enthusiastic worker has a positive influence on colleagues, the manager and clients, so employers are always on the lookout for this trait. 


9 RIGHT ATTIRE :
Dress neatly and appropriately for the job interview. Every job demands formal attire that fits well. 


10 BE PATIENT : 
And remember, anything in this world that is worth having will require some amount of effort, patience, persistence and planning.
