CAREERS: ● TEACHING & EDUCATION SECTOR A tremendous change is sweeping education sector, one of the largest of all professions in India. The primary reasons for the change are (a) corporatisation of education i.e., entry of companies & big industrial houses in school sector (b) IT/computers in education (c) teaching abroad gaining popularity (d) privatization of education and entry of foreign institutions after implementation of GATT. SOCIAL WORK Social work which was earlier thought of as a prerogative of few visionaries, is now attracting a growing number of young people. There are mainly two reasons for this change. Firstly, there is an increasing awareness among young people to work for the downtrodden. Secondly, the job opportunities for social workers are multiplying because of massive inflow of funds for development programmes by NGOs, the UN, corporates, and central and state governments. STOCK MARKET Brokers/subbrokers buy and sell shares on behalf of their clients. They might work independently, or with business houses, broking firms, investment banks and also traditional banks.Fund managers manage money for the public (mutual funds) or even large corporates. They take decisions on where to invest and what strategy to follow for the fund. They are assisted by analysts who try to make predictions of the company’s future based on its past and present financial status. TRAVEL & TOURISM Remember the last holiday, when you went to a hill station or a beach resort? It was your dad (or mom) who got all the reservations (rail, air, hotel, sight seeing etc) done. Now think of being on the other side i.e., you organize everything for individuals/groups who want to travel. If you are enthused, then read on. The government departments formulate policy, select and develop tourist destinations, plan travel facilities, publicise the destinations and provide relevant information to tourists. In the private sector, one can start working as a trainee after doing an IATA recognised qualification and then build up one’s career.
