Does Language Matter in Interviews?
I am not discounting the fact that for a cross functional , cross geographical team communication is very much important.

However, not every role demands individuals to know the communication language i.e. English. Consider cases like China , Japan, Indonesia and may be Vietnam as well, people there are not fluent in English as other non-English speaking nations are (India in this case). However they are doing excellent. Given a chance at the entry level by checking the technical skill set rather than the vocabulary and spoken part gives a boost to one's career which otherwise is stagnant. In India itself you will find many cases where employees joined an organization and then improved on their English speaking ability! Its just a skillset which can be learned at any point of time. This shouldn't be a hindrance at the entry level.

Imagine you're sitting across from your insurance agent, feeling excited as you take the first step towards securing your future. Your agent hands you a certificate—a tangible promise of protection. But amidst the excitement, a troubling thought crosses your mind: Why do we still rely on paperwork in this digital age? What if these documents get lost in the chaos of life? The uncertainty looms large: How will you reclaim your policies without the necessary paperwork?
Now, let's step back and take a wider look at the situation. Did you know that as of 2023, India faces a staggering 25,000 crore rupees worth of unclaimed insurance policies? The main reason? Lack of proper documentation. It's a serious issue—a reminder of the vital role paperwork plays in navigating the complexities of insurance.
Today, we're unpacking a significant shift that's poised to transform how we manage our insurance policies.
From April 1, 2024, it will be mandatory to hold insurance policies in electronic format—a move akin to how investors manage shares in a demat account. But what does this mean for you?

"Ghost jobs" typically refer to positions that are listed by companies but either don't actually exist or are already filled internally, often as a result of various reasons such as budgetary constraints, restructuring, or miscommunication within the organization.
These job postings might remain visible on career websites or job boards, giving the false impression that there are opportunities available when there aren't. This can lead to frustration and wasted time for job seekers who apply for these non-existent positions. Additionally, some unethical companies might use ghost job postings as a way to collect resumes for future reference or to appear more attractive to investors or clients by exaggerating their growth or expansion plans.
