Soaring in the skies, no people to fuel the plane!

No place on land?Air is there!

It has really been quite an insane decade.Looking from the eyes of an Indian, who has grown up in what was a rather a middle class 2nd tier city, Bangalore(Dont tell me how it is now!), and then studying engineering at a college of repute(irrespective of whether i did justice to it or not!), and working in the Indian Industry which is projected to grow at the rate of noughts over the next decade or so,it has been, least to say, CONFUSING!
But lets make peace with the fact that a skill set, or a graduate degree, which got you about 10000 Rs as salary 5 years ago, fetches you 20000, and a lakh a month job, could today be worth more than 6 digits.





One of these sectors that is set to soar, is Aeronautics, and in general, aviation.

Engineering, be it aeronautics, mechanical, structural, electronics, computer science, u name it, everyone has a place in this market.Let alone the "tech" jobs, and we see a whole host of Pilots, air staff, airport employees, and lets not forget those safety personnel who recover dead victims after a plane crash, NO ONE is left out.

The current air scenario is no doubt, much like the skies, turbulent.And lets face it, India can never get blonde haired blue eyed stewardesses to increase sales(Good try KF).Where we can stand out, is our people strength, and ability to create quality, at dirt cheap prices.
An Entrepreneur i know, who is fast moving in this space of MRO(i.e Maintenence,Repair and Overhaul), and Engine design, told me that this is going to be THE area of focus for his organisation going forward in the next half decade.
So all you engineers out there, leave that cubicle, Shove that job, and show your blond boss your brown middle finger(Read...Say "I QUIT!"), and take pride in contributing to this,YOUR, incredibly growing domestic market

Wishing you a safer journey, in life, and in the skies.


So what this is about

Interfacing ahead is a brand new blog.This is where we connect the campus with the corporates, and provide solutions for potential employees to become more "employable".
Of course there are sites like naukri ,timesjobs and the like, but the whole difference lies in being found, and not finding something.

Providing a platform where potential employers and employees can interact, knowing where they will be contributing in the new organization, and also how they will value add to the new teams that they join, and becoming the MEDIUM for this interaction is what InterfacingAhead is about.
Keep reading, and here is to KAIZEN...

Name change, and job profile change!

www.2lu.blogspot.com is now www.Interfacingahead.blogspot.com

This blog will deal with two different aspects, one being into training and development and the other into recruiting, staffing and HR consulting.

Entrepreneur's CREDO



"I do not choose to be a common person.It is my right to be uncommon-if i can.I seek opportunity-not security.I do not wish to be a kept citizen,humbled and dulled by having the state look after me.
I want to take the calculated risk,to dream and to build,to fail and to succeed.

I refuse to barter incentive for a role; I prefer the challenges of life to the guaranteed existence: the thrill of fulfillment to the state calm utopia.

I will not trade my freedom for beneficence nor my dignity for a handout.I will never cower before any master nor bend to any threat.

It is my heritage to stand erect,proud and unafraid;to think and act for myself,to enjoy the benefit of my creations and to face the world boldly and say:

This with God's help, I have done.All this is what it means to be an ENTREPRENEUR."

Official Credo of American Entrepreneurs Association
