Whom to talk with first when you are a new employee

Securing a right job is the dream of each and every person as soon as he or she completes graduation. The professional field is a lot different from the domestic life one is accustomed to before securing a job. The first day at the office is very crucial as it allows the employee judge his boss and colleagues on one hand and on the other it provides others an opportunity to judge his mettle. However, there are many people who face a problem when it comes to interacting with colleagues on the very first day. There are a few people whom new employees should connect with on the very first day at their office.
  • Frontline employees are the first people to be befriended with. It is to be kept in mind that these people are entrusted with the task of developing and manufacturing products along with delivering services right to the clients. So they know the day to day business operations better than anyone else does. Hence interacting with them can help an employee learn the business process from close quarters.
  • Integrators are the perfect people to go to if a new employee needs to have an overall idea of how different departments work together in the organization. Plant managers or project coordinators supervise the coordination among different departments in order to keep up the performance of the business organization. These people can provide a detailed idea about the whole work process along with the political hierarchies of the organization.
  • Tenured and seasoned employees know all the intricacies that the organization has been through in the past and their experience can prove to be a valuable for asset for new employees. No one can succeed without knowing the roots of the organization and tenured employees are the best sources for this information.

Ten Things Everyone Should Know About Time

“Time” is  the most used noun in the English language , yet it remains a mystery. We’ve just completed an amazingly intense and rewarding multidisciplinary conference on the nature of time , and my brain is swimming with ideas and new questions. Rather than trying a summary (the talks will be online soon), here’s my stab at a top ten list partly inspired by our discussions: the things everyone should know about time. [Update: all of these are things I think are true, after quite a bit of deliberation. Not everyone agrees, although of course they should.] 1. Time exists.  Might as well get this common question out of the way. Of course time exists — otherwise how would we set our alarm  CLOCKS ? Time organizes the universe into an ordered series of moments, and thank goodness; what a mess it would be if reality were complete different from moment to moment. The real question is whether or not time is  fundamental , or perhaps emergent. We used to think that “tempe...

Why India’s membership of Washington Accord is a big deal..

There's good news for Indian engineers. The country is now a permanent member of the Washington Accord. Membership means global recognition of Indian degrees and is likely to increase the mobility of engineers to the USA and other countries for jobs. Congratulating her ministry's officials, HRD Minister Smriti Irani said that the development will "ensure that highest quality assurance standards (are) implemented in our technical and engineering programmes to provide global mobility to our engineering graduates". So what is the Washington According? It is an international accreditation agreement for professional engineering academic degrees, between the bodies responsible for accreditation in its signatory countries. In India the body responsible for accrediting the engineering degrees is the National Board of of Accreditation (NBA). The accord was established in 1989 and the current members include: Australia, Canada, Chinese Taipei, Hong Kong China, India, Ireland, ...

'Stronger education & skills required to fight the employ-ability crisis'

Youth unemployment and underemployment have reached critical levels and are expected to continue to rise in most G20 economies. Yet many employers cannot find enough people with the skills they need to grow their business and enable the economy to recover, according to a recent report by Chartered Institute of Management Accountants (CIMA) titled 'Addressing the Employability Crisis'.  The report says this is threatening the global economic recovery and could lead to a "lost generation" of young adults. It talks about a need to forge stronger links between academia and business, education and skills, theory and practice, supply and demand to fight the employability crisis.  According to the report, some of the factors in global employability crisis are older workers' employability (older workers' skill sets can become dated and their benefits can make them relatively expensive), changing demographics (supply of workers is outstripping employment opportunities...
