I share exactly the same experience as Mr Vamshi had, spending too much time and money when I went all the way to pune last month in a job fair held by 'Ekaansh' backed by some big business house...I did not find anything accordingly rather I had been provided with plenty of wrong information just to increase the numbers. On the other hand, my personal experience with the Sarthak-NASSCOM job fair was extremely good. It also depends on how well an individual pulls up the right information about any particular event. Eventually, all the NGOs are more or less try to do some really good job. It will keep on improving years after years and we all are learning through it in a positive manner. As I believe organizers work even harder to muster all things in place.

But when a candidate hasn't got the required qualifications for the jobs the company has announced, the candidate should not be called at all, instead of calling him just to increase the strength of the attendance. I am not talking about the current case, as I know nothing about it. But I attended a job fair for disabled at Delhi, going all the way from Tirupati, in 2008 where my experience was not that great. I clearly wrote in my resume that I am working as a lecturer and my academics are in finance and marketing. I was given a list of companies whose interviews I can attend. 1. One company said they are not looking for people from teaching background. 2. Another company said they don't have anyone from finance department to take my interview. 3. Third company said I was over qualified for the job they have announced. 4. Fourth company said they don't have any openings in finance field. Besides, there were a few big MNCs who conducted exams for some posts. When I told them that I wanted a scribe, they told me that I need not write the exam. I thought they exempted me from writing the exam, but later came to know that they exempted me from the recruitment. I totally accept with all the companies. But my only concern was that, had I been told all this before hand, I wouldn't have gone all the way from Tirupati to Delhi. And I totally accept that, any criticism, whether bear or constructive, should be directed to the concerned parties and not on public platforms. -- G.
