India the land of dreams where more than 80% of the families fall into the category of middle class or lower middle class where half of these families are earning lesser than 20,000 rupees per month now what's funny most of these families have kids like you and me who want to get out of the bubble of being poor they want to challenge their fate reite the future and prove every that they can do it they start working hard I mean very hard and by the time they go to school they studyed 12 hours 14 hours a day and become the Toppers of the class some of them crack IIT J and then they work their ass off for four more years to finally land a full-time high paying job which pays them 12 lakhs 16 lakhs 20 lakhs or even maybe 24 lakhs per year I was one of them too and what did I do when I finally got my campus placement I left it I mean hear me out I left it cuz I got a better off campus offer which had a CTC of 75 lakh yeah you heard it right and unlike the traditional advice of go to college do coding practice DSA machine learning or data analytics I am not going to tell you the same thing because I did not get my job in a conventional way in fact I got it CU I followed my passion cuz I make these stupid little videos which inspire people on the internet and in the next 4 minutes I'm going to tell you the entire story girls and boys welcome back and if you're new here my name is tarun and I'm a recent graduate from IIT kakur and in this video I'm going to talk about myself my job how did I get it how much do I actually get paid with the exact numbers hitting my bank account but most importantly how can you maybe a j aspirant or a college student who's watching this video right now can use a similar strategy to come out of the Rat Race and get a high paying job on your own beware because this is not a conventional advice let's get started first things first let's talk about the nature of my job what do I do basically I'm a senior manager looking at growth at an eex startup and this eex business hugely depends upon YouTube to make you understand the business in the most simplest way we hire Educators build distribution by providing free content on social media we then try to get these audience onto the app by providing more free stuff and then we finally launch paid courses and that's how the company makes money I mean the company also has a sales team to call the leads that we generate and try to convert them into paid customers that's a different story but apart from that the entire company's business is hugely dependent on building social media channels and guess what I have been doing the same damn thing for past three years myself on an individual level on a smaller scale so instead of joining like an associate senior associate associate manager or manager I directly joined as a senior manager but now how can you do the similar stuff how do you bypass the regular job flow or conventional ways of slowly increasing his salary year after year and directly join a company at a much better pay and a much much much better role than your peers so for every single person who's watching this video before I talk about the exact amount of money that I make through my job these are the three small tips for you the first one you need to identify the trends in which the job market is mowing for example for every set of years there would be a bloom in certain kind of Industries in India and being skilled at the requirements of these companies will give you an edge especially if you are a fresher let me explain for example in 1980s companies in textile apparel and agriculture were at Bloom so companies like Arin Mills Raymonds relent Industries hired a lot of people during those years and in 1990s it was it and Telecommunications and in 2000s it was it and Outsourcing along with retail and real estate and in 2010s it was e-commerce and startups like flip cart snap deal and Ola and then finally in 2020s it was a time for fintech and edtech and guess what I was in the edtech sector doing the same damn thing that these companies are doing so guess what I got lucky or maybe not so now this gets us to the second point if you're a student right now I really want you to experiment with a lot of things while you are in school or college because luck favors the people who try for it and who actually put in the work so basically you have a 3-month period where you're trying to learn a specific single skill every 3 months so at the end of an year you'll have at least three or four skills that you're good at and by the end of the college you'll have at least 12 to 16 skills in your and that you're actually good at and this will keep you ahead of 99. 9% people who are around you maybe are peirs or like whoever it is and that's how you get into the top 5% of the students in India got it and also if you're interested in skills like design video editing and content creation even my course is coming in March so you can definitely check it out at tunes. so now let's get to the third point I want you to come out to the rat race and try multiple things while you're a student itself BAS basically take risk because if you don't take risk early you'll definitely end up being mediocre and the more that you try and fail in the beginning the better it is because iteration after iteration you'll just keep getting better and better got it so now finally to The Sweet Spot of the video how much do I actually get paid through my [Music] job cheers to the Dark Truth of Campus placements so when someone tells you you that Microsoft package is 40 LPA how much do you think that this person is getting paid in hand most of you already know about this but this 40 lakhs is played into multiple Parts which includes the inhand salary performance bonus joining bonus STS and all of those things in which the only recurring thing is the inhand salary and in the same way my CTC split into two parts the inhan salary and the stocks which are 30 lakhs and 45 lakhs respectively and this 30 lakhs converts into 2.
5 lakhs per month and after taxes I just get around something around 1. 96 LS per month that's it that's the reality and the hype about my job and the money that I make through it but this doesn't excite me right now like living life to the fullest and having a meaningful life where I'm also learning something new every single day is the major main priority right now because at this point of time I'm still young and I need to and I want to keep learning new things but for anyone who's a student right now I want to tell you one and only one thing don't stick to the conventional path at least while you are in college or in school it's safe I agree but you don't get extraordinary results if you keep playing safe so come out try a million different things while you're in school or college because trying a lot of things can actually put you ahead of 99. 5% of the people who are around you you try one thing you fail at it and you get better you try again you fail better so with that being said in the next video I'm going to talk about five most important skills that every students should have along with the book recommendations and the most efficient and the best ways to learn those skills so that you can maximize the money power and the status doesn't matter whatever the career path that you choose got it so with that being said hello meeting AB but it's already 2:30 a.
