(19th Aug, 2020) Why this newsletter?
A career is an essential part of our identity. Since we spend 60% or more of our waking time at work, it has a huge role to play in our overall happiness.
The future is changing. It presents new challenges but also new opportunities
Our work life has been changing drastically since last 10 years.
New jobs are emerging, replacing older jobs.
The same is happening with skills.
More experience isn’t more desirable. In fact, it’s a liability, unless proven otherwise.
Job safety is going to be an alien concept soon. COVID-19 has already led to millions facing direct or indirect job threats for the first time in their lives.
Globalization of talent is happening right now. In the post COVID-19 world, you are not just competing with others in your area or city, but with everyone around the globe.
Take your career seriously? This newsletter will spark new thoughts.
Thanks to my role at CutShort, I get to observe thousands of professionals who are hiring or looking to further their careers.
My aim here will be to give you unfiltered views on some topics that are triggered in my mind due to these observations.
