The right vision
The maintenance of ocular health and correction of eye problems that lead to loss of vision or vision impairment contributes greatly to the ability to enjoy the longer lifespan that modern medicine has made possible.As per wikipedia definition optometry is concerned with eyes, vision, visual systems, and vision information processing in humans. Optometrists are also qualified to diagnose and treat eye diseases such as infections and glaucoma. Optometrists and optometry-related organisations interact with government agencies, other healthcare professionals, and the community, to deliver eye and vision care. Optometrists are one of the three eye-care professionals, the other two being, ophthalmologists (medical doctors), and opticians. It is a highly satisfying career as optometrists are often able to restore or improve a patient’s sight. “As compared to the western world, the study of optometry is still in its infancy in India and we lack qualified optometrists. Moreover, in India the practice of optometry is not regulated”, says Dr S.P.S. Grewal, CEO Grewal Eye Institute in
Chandigarh.
Role
Unlike an ordinary optician who is qualified only to fit and dispense eyewear, an institutionally qualified optometrist has a major and important role in eye care. An optometrist performs regular eye examinations, practises orthotics, public health optometry, counseling services and prescribes low-vision aids. He assesses and diagnoses systemic diseases, refers patients to appropriate specialists and acts as a primary eye care provider. A full-time four year, professional BSc (Hons) degree course in Optometry and Ophthalmic Techniques is a superb career opportunity for youngsters. Optometry also provides a highly respectable platform for further studies in India and abroad.
Demand and supply
Though statistics are not available in India, in the USA, optometry is the sixth most sought after profession. In the Middle East, optometrists are in great demand as in these countries optical outlets, retail super markets and duty free shops don’t get licences unless they employ a qualified optometrist.
Who can get in l
Students who have scored a minimum of 50 per cent marks in physics, chemistry and biology in CBSE or equivalent state education board examination. l
Entrance examination based on Plus II syllabus. l
Plus II percentage l Performance in interview. The course consists of three years of theoretical studies and one year of clinical internship. According to eye specialist Dr Varun Baweja, “This course provides excellent job opportunities to students at the completion of four years. Depending on the vacancies, top performing students get absorbed as interns in various hospitals. On the completion of this course, a graduate can work in eye institutes in India and abroad, in clinical, research or teaching capacity. They can join optical industry and MNCs. They can work in conjunction with individuals or group ophthalmic practices. Or they can simply choose to be self-employed”. After doing BSc.,optometry, the students can go in for higher studies like, M.OPT, M.PHIL., M.S, PH.D., in India. In addition to these one can also pursue O.D, (which is a Doctoral degree) in USA from any one of the 18 accredited universities. Pay package
In India, the pay scales for institutionally qualified optometrists are around Rs 2.5 lakh per annum to Rs 6 lakh per annum depending on their experience. Rishabh Marwaha, who is doing BSc. Optometry at Grewal Eye Institute, Chandigarh says, “BSc. Optometry is an excellent option for those who can’t get admission in medical colleges to do MBBS. It also provides ample scope and opportunities as compared to other professions like nursing, physiotherapy etc”.

Career Hotline
Q. Could you please tell me something about SLET. Is it the same as NET, or is there a difference?
— Gunmeet Saini It was felt that an eligibility test at the national level may not completely be able to represent the subjects which are regional in their character. Moreover, there was a plea to permit candidates to take the test in their mother tongue. If it’s NET at the national level, then SET is its counterpart at the state level. The SLET (State Level Eligibility Test for Lectureship Eligibility) has now been rechristened as SET (State Eligibility Test for Lectureship). The test is conducted both in English and in the vernacular language. The only other difference being that unlike the NET which makes you eligible to teach anywhere in the country, the SET entitles you to teach in any college or university in that particular state. The States or Union Territories that wish to conduct their own exam have to obtain UGC accreditation which is granted for a stipulated period. In fact, SET is popular not only with the established states but also with the new ones like Chhattisgarh and Jharkhand who have joined the bandwagon. About 15 states offer this exam to students having domiciles.
DRDO,
DRDO,a promising future
Q. I am doing BTech from IIT. I am interested in working in DRDO. Do you think it’s a good idea career-wise?
— Vineet K
A. Earlier, the 52 DRDO labs, conducting research and development in naval, aeronautical, life sciences and other sectors, would barely end up recruiting 1-2 IITians in a year. However, call it recession, or patriotism, or the generous 6th Pay Commission, for the first time, 12 per cent of the total recruitment at the DRDO was from top-rung IITs. After the 6th Pay Commission, the packages and promotion schemes were closer to the private sector and so was career growth. Up to the level of scientist H (the equivalent of Additional Secretary in the Civil Services), scientists no longer have to wait for vacancies to get promotions. Plus, the allotment for awards for the scientists has doubled to Rs 2 crore annually. Every year, DRDO recruits at least 500 scientists. This year, up to 60 of them, 12 per cent of the total number, were from the IITs. Oh but don’t expect the IIT tag to give you any additional weightage though. DRDO recruits employees through the Scientists Entry Test and through campus recruitment across various IITs, central universities and other engineering colleges.
Don’t pay for placement
Q. Please tell me if it is alright to register with more than one placement agency? How much, should one pay them?
— Rajesh Bedi
As for whether it’s fine to work simultaneously with more than one placement firms, the answer is, yes. Recruiters are the engine to which you hitch your wagon — it helps to have as many driving your cart. Every placement agency understands that you want a job and that you’ll work with whoever can help, so don’t worry about hurting their feelings. But, if a particular agency starts pushing your resume around heavily to companies, it’s wise to stay loyal. They may feel cheated if you use someone else.
Banking dilemma
Q. I am doing BA (Economics). Everyone says that international banks are the best employers. But my family thinks that public sector banks are the safest. Please suggest some basic courses that would give me a basic idea of this sector. Also tell me if I’m thinking correctly.
— Pranay Sarma Of the 16,200 new banking jobs generated during this period, the public sector biggie, State Bank of India alone hired 13,000 people. (And SBI is just one of the 27 PSU banks). What’s more, the latest BCG survey shows that the Rs 5.6 lakh per employee salary for public sector banks has, for the first time, exceeded that of private sector banks: Rs 5.4 lakh. Although nationalised banks have generally been preoccupied with treasury business which predominantly involves back-office work, the focus is now shifting to sales and service in view of the vast array of product offerings e.g. personal banking, housing finance, education loans, consumer durable finance, auto-finance, besides FDs, gold, insurance, credit cards; LAP (loan against property), and the increasing thrust towards internet and tele-banking etc. The wealth management business alone is expected to grow 10 times. The banking sector is expected to cross the 1.5 million mark in the next three years, in view of the escalating growth of the Indian economy. And PSU banks are set to hire over 30,000 people according to the Institute of Banking Personnel Selection (IBPS). Promoted by PSU banks and the RBI, the institute has been assisting the financial sector in employee selection, promotion and placement. As these PSU banks are gearing up to hire in large numbers, you might as well give it a serious shot. There are several short-term courses that you can pursue. These include the Diploma in Banking and Finance offered by the Indian Institute of Banking and Finance, Mumbai, in collaboration with the Manipal Education Group. Equivalent to the JAIIB, the course provides basic knowledge of banking and financial systems, banking technology, customer relations, basic accountancy and legal aspects of day-to-day banking operations. Eligibility: Final-year graduation students. The exams, both online and offline are conducted twice a year. NIIT’s Institute of Finance, Banking & Insurance (IFBI) and NIIT Uniqua also offer some useful job-oriented courses: e.g. PG Dip in Banking & Fin Services etc. Hons Diploma in Banking & Financial Services etc. Please check them out on www.niit.com IGNOU’s School of Management Studies (SOMS) (in collaboration with the Financial Technologies Knowledge Management Co (FTKMC), Mumbai, offers a PG Diploma in Financial Markets Practice (one-yr) via multi-media technology-aided delivery Eligibility: Graduation.

Study Abroad New Zealand
In a move to speed up student visa process and to dispel Indian students’ fiscal worries, the New Zealand High Commission in New Delhi has come up with the Funds Transfer Scheme (FTS) which will allow Indian parents have control over the amount of money that their children will have access to in the kiwi land.
“This scheme will make it a lot easier than the current available alternatives where a range of documentation is required and a bank loan must be taken,” said Nicole Topfer, the Acting Manager of Immigration, New Zealand, in India. “Now it would be easy for the visa officer to determine the ability of parents to fund their children’s tuition and living costs in New Zealand. Usually this is done by the parents having to provide a range of documentation to show their financial ability, which the visa officer then has to scrutinise and verify,” she adds. Vinay Hari, Managing Director of Jalandhar-based Angels Immigration & Education Consultants, throws light on the current education scenario in New Zealand in the backdrop of the fresh rule change that can have a far-reaching impact on overseas studies. Would you elaborate on this Funds Transfer Scheme (FTS) and how is it going to benefit students from the region? While earlier it was very difficult for a student (his parents/sponsor) to show more than six-month-old funds to the New Zealand High Commission, now he would be able to transfer funds to New Zealand on visa approval. This follows the mission’s tie-up with the ANZ bank of that country. As per the new visa rules, on visa approval a student will have to transfer 10,000 NZ dollars to the bank which will lock the whole amount and transfer the amount, on a monthly basis, into the students account. This new arrangement will free the student of the financial burden. Now he needn’t worry about his living expenses. What we normally observe that when our students go abroad their parents expect them to make some money and send home. They start looking for jobs as soon as they land; ignoring their studies, their main objective. So, under the new scheme a student would not have to worry about his board and lodging expenses. Now we will see only serious students going to NZ, reducing the chances of student visa misuse. How would you compare education in NZ with that in other countries? Education in New Zealand is something different. Its main thrust is on the practical part unlike bookish knowledge elsewhere. Everything is on assignment basis there. A student has to clear all the papers with 100 per cent marks, even 90 per cent won’t do. Students grow there in a multi-cultural environment with all sorts of communities existing in harmony. During my stay there I met a lot of Chinese, Japanese and Korean people and learnt a lot many things from them. It is a unique learning experiencing through international exposure. A common complaint about NZ is students don’t get permanent residency even after years of studying and living there? How far is this true? It is not that easy to get permanent residency in New Zealand where the government allows a one-year job search visa on study completion. And, if a student gets a job during that period he gets a two-year work permit in his study field. For example, if a student gets a NZ dollar 40,000 package under the level five programme, he is eligible to apply for a PR. On the other hand, a student who has studied computers and applies for a job in the business field can’t get a PR that easily. So, we can say getting a PR in that country is not as easy as is made out to be here. How are the new financial regulations going to impact students’ outflow from the region? Only quality students will apply for study in New Zealand. I guess, students now going to that country will have a better future because they don’t have to worry about their living expenses. They will put their heart and soul into their studies, leading to better grades and better job opportunities.
Fee structure
Education in New Zealand is comparatively cheaper and affordable as compared to other English-speaking countries of the world. For example, it costs less to learn English there than elsewhere. In universities: The annual tuition fee (in NZ dollars) for a Bachelor degree is $ 15,000; Masters $18,800; and PhD $21,200. In polytechnics: Bachelor: $15,000; Diploma: $14,800; and Certificate: $14,200.

The winning combo
With HR departments elevating their roles in organisations, it’s no wonder that many are seriously looking at, or are already using, technology to help manage day-to-day details. And, if the increasing complexity of HR roles was not enough to encourage managers to move towards more modern solutions, now company employees are also expecting more technology as a way to receive information on benefits and to interface with their employers and HR departments. Technology has become an important part of HR function. The smart use of data and its analysis gives a fillip to the performance of a company. Deepak Kaishtha, Managing Partner, Planman HR Pvt. Ltd. says, “With software at their fingertips, HR managers can instantly assess big picture needs of companies to help advance their increasingly more strategic, roles and also provide a channel for employees to access and update benefit coverage”. Technology thus has the potential to increase the sophistication of the HR. A wide range of technologies are at the disposal of HR managers to sophisticate and automate the process. According to analyst Forrester there is no one-stop shop in terms of what it describes as human resources management (HRM) applications that will satisfy all the needs of the HR department. Understanding and using these technologies will enable HR professionals to coach managers and leaders about the needs of the employee and to understand how to best support those managers and employees. However, an important aspect that cannot be overlooked is the need for the HR leaders to guide their teams to evaluate and become familiar with the various technologies that the teams are using. Teams are highly dependent on collaboration technology and infrastructure. For employees who never see and/or meet each other, it can be a daunting effort to establish trust and rapport, effectively communicate and share information on an ongoing basis. Obviously, technology is a large component of managing and enabling a virtual team. HR professionals should be closely aware of what technologies are being offered and used by remote workers so that they can help managers transition to managing virtual teams. “HR leaders need to guide their teams to evaluate and become familiar with all of the various technologies that the teams are using,” says Kaistha. “Understanding and using these technologies will enable HR professionals to coach managers and leaders on the needs of the employee and to understand how to best support those managers and employees.” “Technology should be a strong conduit for team success. That technology is not solely based on corporate infrastructure, but rather is an extension of that infrastructure to create and bond the team as a community of peers,” emphasises Kaistha. “Virtual communication and information sharing can be accomplished using a number of vehicles, such as e-mail, intranets and the Internet, video conferencing, teleconferencing, webcasts, shared electronic whiteboards and groupware (e.g., Lotus Notes). Every organisation, as it expands to work at a virtual pace, will encounter challenges when working virtually,” he adds. “The importance of technology in HR is ever-increasing and companies should not shy away from exploring various options to have a sophisticated and effective HR system in place”, says Manav Bansal, a senior HR executive with a real estate company. According to Bansal, “The latest generation of workers has different expectations of working conditions which will force companies to adapt their HR policies and technology accordingly”.
Some of the options that managers
should explore
Role of cloud Software as a service or cloud HR applications will become increasingly important. Application flexibility, cost predictability, and ease-of-use make SaaS very attractive. Social side of HR Social networking has a major impact on the HR functions. It is important that organisations understand how social software is altering the recruitment landscape and adapt recruiting strategies and systems accordingly. Videoconferencing Another IT trend which is impacting HR technology is the growing interest in videoconferencing. Virtual classrooms can help companies cut training costs and reduce travel costs as well. And it also can be organised more frequently.

Success rides on TQP
I have spoken to executives in major corporations over the world and asked one question: “If you had a magic wand and there was one thing you would want changed, that would give a cutting edge in the marketplace resulting in increased productivity and profits, what would that be?” The answer was unanimous. They all said that if people had better attitudes, they’d be better team players, and it’d cut down waste, improve loyalty and, in general, make their company a great place to work. William James of Harvard University said, “The greatest discovery of my generation is that human beings can alter their lives by altering their attitudes of mind.” Experience has shown that human resources is the most valuable asset of any business. It is more valuable than capital or equipment. Unfortunately, it is also the most wasted. People can be your biggest asset or your biggest liability. Having been exposed to a number of training programmes, such as customer service, selling skills, and strategic planning, I have come to the conclusion that all these great programmes with one major challenge: None of them works unless they have the right foundation, and the right foundation is TQP.
What is TQP?
TQP is Total Quality People — people with character, integrity, good values, and a positive attitude. Don’t get me wrong. You do need all the other programmes, but they will only work when you have the right foundation, and the foundation is TQP. For example, some customer, service programmes teach participants to say “please”, and “thank you”, give smiles and handshakes. But how long can a person keep on a fake smile if he does not have the desire to serve? Besides, people can see through him. And if the smile is not sincere, it is irritating. My point is, there has to be substance over form not form over substance. Without a doubt one does need to remember “please” and “thank you”, the smiles etc — they are very important. But keep in mind that they come a lot easier when accompanied by a desire to serve. Someone once approached Blaise Pascal, the famous French philosopher and said, “If I had brains, I would be a better person.” Pascal replied, “Be a better person and you will have my brains.”

Food for thought
Employees value growth more than compensation when it comes to choosing an organisation, according to a survey by headhunting firm Executive Access.According to the survey of over 500 employees working in more than 50 companies, jobs that offer faster growth are preferred by employees across various executive levels.
The survey revealed that employees across senior, middle and junior levels give the highest weightage of over 20 per cent to “growth and learning opportunities” among the other parameters considered while choosing an organisation. According to the survey, financial compensation is rated differently by employees at various levels when it comes to joining a new company. Employees in junior management rate compensation as the second-most important attribute of a job, whereas for both middle and top management executives, financial compensation comes at fourth place in their list of joining criteria. “The survey clearly indicates what the corporates need to do to hire and retain talent across the different levels. In today’s scenario, employees look out for as much learning as possible which he/she can leverage in real time,” Executive Access Managing Director Ronesh Puri said. “If an organisation is open to inculcating in-house training, the lesser are chances of facing attrition,” Puri added. The other parameters which an employee considers when choosing a job include entrepreneurial freedom, the culture of the company, business profitability and the security and stability of the job. Interestingly, the survey shows that safety and security of a job is not high on the list of employee concerns when they think about joining a company. — PTI

Dental assistance a growing field
Job profile
During dental procedures, assistants work alongside the dentist to sterilise and disinfect instruments and equipment, prepare and lay out the instruments and materials required to treat each patient, and obtain and update patients’ dental records. They can also instruct patients on post-operative and general oral healthcare. Dental assistants also prepare materials for impressions and restorations, and process dental X-rays as directed by a dentist. An extensively trained assistant may also be allowed to remove sutures, apply topical anesthetics to gums or cavity-preventive agents to teeth, remove excess cement used in the filling process, and place dental dams to isolate teeth for treatment. Dental assistants with laboratory duties make casts of the teeth and mouth from impressions, clean and polish removable appliances, and make temporary crowns.
Importance
Fast growth
As part of the overall growing healthcare industry, dental assistance is expected to be among the fastest growing occupations over the 2008–18 projection periods. Population growth, greater retention of natural teeth by middle-aged and older people, and an increased focus on preventive dental care for younger generations, will fuel demand for the services. In addition, as dentists’ workload increases, they are expected to hire more assistants to perform routine tasks, so that they can themselves devote more time to complex procedures. The fact that many corporate players are entering into the healthcare sector is another factor and working in this field is probably going to be more rewarding and challenging. Everyday exposure to cutting edge technology while providing invaluable support to the success of a dental practice is the core asset value of a dental assistant.
Scope
Dental Assistance is one of the rare occupations that have tremendous scope for growth. For many, this entry-level occupation provides basic training and experience and serves as a steppingstone to more skilled and higher paying jobs. Dental assistants, by virtue of their knowledge in the field, can choose to become dental clinic managers, dental-assisting instructors, dental product sales representatives, or insurance claim processors for dental insurance companies as and when they start dental cover in India. Dental assistants wishing to take on expanded functions or perform radiological procedures may also choose to do so under the dental council regulations. The northern region has seen a spurt of corporate activity in organised and specialised healthcare sector. With dental tourism on rise, the scope for such services is bound to pick up over the next few years.
Pay package
A starting salary of Rs 10, 000–15,000 per month in a corporate hospital or a clinic is what a dental assistant may currently earn after getting simple training. Other benefits like hospital employee benefits with other perks make it an appealing option for those interested. — The writer is Head of

Happiness work
When he reached the shore, he learnt about the eighth Sikh master Guru Harkrishan’s passing away and that the ninth guru, who had not yet been identified, was in Baba Bakala. On reaching there, he found many who claimed to be the ninth master, but Makhan continued his search till he came across Guru Tegh Bahadur who wanted to relieve him of his debt of 500 mohurs! His differences with King Bhoja of Dhara made Kalidas go into hiding twice. Even while a village simpleton and a dancer, at different occasions, recited his verses, King Bhoja and King Kumaradasa of Lanka at once recognized that Kalidasa’s genius was at work in the poems being read. Madho Das was leading the life of a recluse near the Godavari. Guru Gobind Singh went to his cave, convinced and baptized him as Banda Bahadur to carry on his fight. A minister of King Vaideha of Mithila, on the King’s orders, was looking for an exceptional seven-year-old boy when he came across the magnificent township of Yavamajjhaka. The minister learnt that the architect was none other than Aushada Kumar, a reincarnation of Bodhisattva. After a few tests that the seven-year old passed with flying colours, the King adopted the genius from Yavamajjhaka. Damayanti faced a peculiar problem at her swayamvara. She loved Nala and the garland in her hands was meant only for him, but in front of her were seated five Nalas. She prayed to the Almighty who told her to look at their feet. As four out of the five were gods — Indra, Varuna, Agni and Yama — in disguise, they could not touch Earth. She saw that only one — the real Nala — had his feet grounded and garlanded him. You can’t keep a good man down for long. — Sai R. Vaidyanathan The writer can be contacted at

Selection process:
A. While the UGC was drafting the concept of NET as a mandatory requirement for determining the eligibility for lectureship in 1989, it also gave an option to various state governments and Union Territories to conduct their independent tests.
A. To answer your last question first: You shouldn’t pay a single penny. If you’re a candidate going to a search firm, you should never pay a fee as the hiring company pays the recruiter to fill the position.
A. You are absolutely on the right track. And there’s good news for you! While most companies handed over pink slips to even their most efficient employees, the public sector banks not only emerged unscathed from the recent global crisis rather staff shortage and new business needs sent them on a hiring spree!
The success of any business venture hinges on the effective and sensitive handling of its most important asset — the workforce. And this comes under the purview of the human resource department. Though human factor is the main concern of HR, it is being increasingly aided in this endeavour by the latest technologies. These days most multinational companies with huge manpower use some or the other type of technological support for their HR systems. Different IT programmes are being used to enhance the strategic value of HR and to make it a more precise discipline. Organisations like ICICI, Kyoni India, Future group all use HRIS for adding pace and effectiveness to its HR department.
Have you ever wondered why some individuals, organisations, or countries are more successful than others? It is not a secret. These people simply think and act more effectively. They have learnt how to do so by investing in the most valuable asset — people. I believe that the success of an individual, organisation or country, depends on the quality of their people.
Dental Assistance is one of the branches of the dental care profession that is fast becoming popular in our country and offers a good career choice to youngsters. Assistants are an important part and an asset of the dental care team. They increase the efficiency of oral treatments. The assistants in dental care need to be excellent in communication and people skills besides having a sound technical training. A major part of their work involves comforting the patients before, during and after the medical procedures.
A dental assistant is an extension of a dentist’s mind and hands while delivering dental care. An efficient assistant can coordinate the setting up of the operatory, maintain strict sterilisation protocols, and arrange the patient-specific materials and equipment as per the expectation of the dentist. A trained dental assistant can foresee the requirement of the dentist and keep the equipment and materials ready to be handed over in a now increasingly becoming popular “four-handed dentistry”. This allows the dentist to focus on the core concerns of the treatment aspect.
For a boss, identifying a few good men is not difficult. You just have to look and the quality of work done by juniors will easily help separate the chaff from the grain.To save his ship caught in a storm, trader Bhai Makhan Shah made a silent prayer to the guru for help and vowed to donate 500 gold mohurs.
