Are you Hungry??

Hunger is to want more…to achieve more...to perform more...to explore more

Look around yourself and you might find people hungry for knowledge, right opportunity  and other such intangible and worthy experiences .No wonder why Rashmi Bansal  titled her book ,”Stay Hungry, Stay Foolish”!! Letting yourself want something will keep you hungry and realizing that you haven’t all that knowledge required will keep you foolish and this would end up in a success story…

When you find a profile updated on a portal, the first things which strikes you is a job seeker. But honestly it’s not always that though the idea of being successful is always at the back of one’s mind and we all in one way or the other are trying to settle our careers northwards. Looking for a job change is a career decision and many time job interviews however good, tricky or difficult they might be, is not right way to decide on this life changing event. I find many people changing jobs for reasons they themselves are not convinced and by the time they realize it’s too late even to run the ‘Rat Race’. For though we look forward for a bright career but wrong move makes us end up with a job. Now why do we attempt to jeopardize our future and just like me and you there are many others who would not like to re-invent the wheel

There is a section of our society who keeps itself updated with the general happenings in and around through different media and they are people who yet hungry but believe in ‘Better be safe than sorry ‘.And what they miss is the first hand experience on that risk. What would have happened if?? And this ‘if’ most of the times remains unanswered. Again the question is “What’s more important and is it worth it?”

So whether or not you a job hopper…

Whether or not you have an appetite for risk…

Whether or not your love your work…

You still are hungry!!

Interesting on an average we would agree that we not just crave for information but also self assessment and further the best option we find for the same is job interviews. Have come across people attending interviews in order to assess their knowledge though job change is not always the real reason. Frankly, what are the other options??But job interviews too cannot be an ideal way for such discussions. A typical interview will always revolve around the specific requirement and it hardly will let an attendee explore his/her grey areas. In such formal discussions we land up only to know what the other party requires and not what our capability is. So here the need was understand your strengths and analyse your past decisions but on the contrary you either land up with a job offer without still exploring those untouched areas or with an unsatisfied and confused feeling of what went wrong?.Ironically we never come to know the right answer.

You are always looking forward to conversation on similar frequencies as yours. There is always a need to let people know,”what you did last summer”. It’s always welcoming to know that there are people travelling in same boat and you are not a loner. Appreciation coming from your fraternity counts more that from unknown.

plugHR knows just how to do it. …

We brings ‘Career Café’ in different cities for the HR folks who believe they are hungry and what can satisfy it better than ‘good food of discussions’. Catching others for a casual coffee break will not just bring you out of your dilemmas and inhibitions but also a clearer picture of your inside, one you have been seeking and longing for.

So next time when you are hungry, let’s catch up for a coffee!!
