How Coronavirus [Covid-19] Is Impacting Your Career?

By now we are already aware of the Coronavirus and its effects. With each passing day, the situation is getting worse. And, it is impossible to find a country that has not been affected by Coronavirus

We are living in a state where we are really unsure about the future we are about to see.

Now, all this is adding up for a global recession which all of us are really worried about. 

And because our Online Training Courses specially focus on career growth for students and working professionals around the globe, we are already starting to see its impact on people enrolling for our courses (We’ll share the data below). 

So what does this mean for you?

Well before we dive deeper into that, let us tell what you shouldn’t be doing.

  1. Don’t be afraid - The time is certainly not easy with tension and fear all around us. But if we follow certain measures suggested by the government including washing our hands for twenty seconds, maintaining social distances while we are out to buy groceries and staying indoors for a maximum amount of time - we’re good :) 
  2. Don’t exploit this time - The first thing we are seeing is that people are misreading this time as their holiday period. Few are making plans with friends, others are spending hours on online entertainment. We aren’t denying that you should not watch Netflix or Amazon prime videos, but we are just asking you to plan your time while prioritizing your to-dos. Even if you're working from home, you can plan your days and weeks. (We will discuss that later)
  3. Don’t be demotivated - Businesses are going to struggle for sure and this time thus becomes more than crucial for you. Companies like Apple shut down their stores to help reduce the spread, which means reduced income and less profit. Sure they are able to take care of their employees during this tough time, but not all companies would be able to pay salaries without some cuts.

So coming back to my original question, what does this mean for you?

The days yet to come are uncertain and that further presents a huge career risk. Due to such prevailing scenarios, there might be a few job cuts, increasing the competition and making the job requirements tough.

And this quarantine or lockdown time presents you with an opportunity to combat the Covid-19 as well as upbeat your skills, strengthen your knowledge and brush-up your concepts which might be useful in your future career growth.

What you should be doing?

With the coronavirus pandemic sweeping the globe, now is the time to stay in and learn. We strongly recommend using this lockdown period productively by investing in your career and future. To help you through these tough times, let us understand how we should plan our days ahead.

  • Create Daily Schedules.

You have to set clear expectations in terms of daily goals, weekly goals, and biweekly goals. Make sure to identify important tasks that you need to accomplish on a daily level. Each day dedicate at least one to two hours for learning new or revising lost concepts. This can be achieved by enrolling in for a weekday training that helps you gain an edge over others.

Sometimes it can be difficult to anticipate the roadblocks that you might face throughout the days or weeks. So make sure your plan has certain flexibility to adjust your certain incomings. If not, be flexible and make changes along the way. 

  • Understand the Importance of Robust Learning

In such extreme circumstances, it’s tempting for an individual to get carried away with enjoying leisure or lazy time. That's human nature and can happen with any of us. But, if you have prepared a proper plan you can get time for everything you want. Also, we have to understand the difference between learning from an online training provider and learning from our own self. An Online Training provider will have a proper curriculum and time frame along with expert guidance to provide you with the best learning material and opportunities whereas if you start on your own you might struggle midway with the shortage of materials and get stuck in the questions that may arise while learning.

  • Address Your Emotional Toll

Avoid checking in with news channels every other minute, especially the world charts as that can make you less comfortable and create panic at the back of your mind. Being sequestered at home can be isolating and can worsen the fear of dealing with a global crisis. Taking time to check in about feelings of anxiety is just as important as checking on your career. Some things that can help include: 

  1. Take regular breaks
  2. Maintain a fitness regime
  3. Keep to a regular sleep schedule
  4. Try to limit distractions when possible
  5. Make time to virtually socialize 

During this time, we have been observing our numbers, by numbers we mean to say the enrollments in our different online courses. For the last two months, there has been a sharp rise in enrollments. Just look at the chart below (compares last month to the current month).

Note: Current month we have recorded only 22 days

As per the above numbers, we have seen maximum movement in Tableau Master Training and Data Science Master Training. This clearly depicts that there are more no. of people willing to enroll in training that is one of the top demanded courses in the job market. 

What was worth noticing is that many courses like QA Software Testing Master Training, DevOps Master Training, Business Analyst Master Training and AWS Master Training have also experienced quite a number compared to previous months. These training will certainly help professionals to strengthen their core competencies. As these courses contribute to major markets around the globe, we have heard our customers saying that they need to clear their basics and increase on-job expertise. And thus, these online training will help them move further in their current job roles.

Finally, our Salesforce Master Training and MS SQL Server & MSBI Master Training have always been on the forefront. The reason is simple, these courses form the backbone of any industry and the demand of professionals in these fields will always be consistent no matter what.

If you wish to get a brief on all the above courses and know why are these among the Top 10 tech skills for 2020, watch the video below:

Hopefully, the Coronavirus Outbreak minimizes in the coming weeks and passes away soon. In the meanwhile, try not to socialize with others and wash your hands regularly.

And as far for your career, this is the time for you to rise. Don’t be afraid when others are too. Rise against the odds and make yourself demanding in the job market!
