Live thru the transition....


Well! The time has come for all of us to shift from College to Corporates. What it takes to be successful in getting into a corporate and further staying in it? The requirements are pretty different than those for the semester exams. Thinking out of the box, real time scenarios, experimentation and so on.. These are some of the key tasks one will be doing inside the corporates. Before that, there is something happening between this college life and the life with the companies. Yes, the transition.....
How it sounds:
Some welcome this transition with a broad smile, as it gives them an opportunity to try their hands with some real world problems. For some others, its a sudden act of "independence" which affects them, because they might have done everything under heavy scrutinizing and lack of this puts them under heavy pressure. Whatever may be the case, the transition is sure for all. Well, how to go about this? Primarily, a change of attitude is required. See every problem you study as a real world problem or at least associate them with a real world entity. Imagine some solution that could solve the problem even in the real world.
Learn the other way:
While learning the subjects, learn those subjects that really interests you with some passion which will carry you forward. Select your domain where you want to work, because it gives you two advantages. First, it gives you job satisfaction. Second, it enables you to deliver the best project as you love your job. Consider the practical aspects of the subjects and enquire whats really happening rather than just mugging up!!
Finally:
Successful people are those who grow through this transition and gain as much experience as possible through their projects. Mere theoretical knowledge will do no good. Projects lend you a helping hand when you want to explore things and don't take projects "a take it for granted aspect". Hope u enjoy this transition.. good luck!!!
