The state of the job market has been worrisome for people across the country ever since companies started carrying out large scale layoffs. In 2022, Twitter (now called X) laid off thousands of employees and eventually, companies like Meta, Google, Amazon, Microsoft and so on also began handing the pink slip to employees. Thousands of people took to social media platforms to share their ordeals. While some have successfully moved on to new roles now, many are still searching for opportunities, elevating competition in the job market. However, the situation isn't so grim everywhere. <keyword id="78512" type="General" weightage="100" keywordseo="iim-calcutta" source="Orion">IIM Calcutta</keyword> students bagged offers worth nearly 2 lakh per month for their summer internship programme. Curious? Read on to know more. The 61st batch of IIM Calcutta's flagship MBA programme saw all 475 students secure internships during the recent placement season. The numbers also speak volumes: a staggering median stipend of ₹2 lakh per month, a record-breaking achievement, and an average of ₹1.89 lakh that closely follows. And it doesn’t stop there—the highest domestic offer came in at ₹3.67 lakh, while international placements soared with top offers of ₹6.75 lakh per month. For many, this success story from IIM Calcutta is a reminder that when it comes to premium talent, there’s always a demand, even when the world feels uncertain. Professor Ritu Mehta, Chairperson of Placement Activities at IIM Calcutta, said as per a report in ET, "The outcome of the <keyword id="23806452" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="summer-internship-offers" source="keywords">summer internship offers</keyword> has yet again demonstrated the future readiness of our students in a highly competitive landscape. Globally, there is an ongoing recalibration of managerial jobs and pullback of job postings, hence we are very grateful to our recruiters to repose their trust in our students and our academic processes." Meanwhile, IIM Calcutta said, "The cluster-cohort placement process that involved various policies such as ‘dream offer’ enabled recruiters to find a better student-recruiter fit, making the overall process a win-win for both recruiters and students." For the unversed, IIM Calcutta, established in 1961 as the first Indian Institute of Management, is one of the most prestigious business schools in India and is globally renowned for its academic excellence. Known for its rigorous MBA programme, it has built a reputation for producing leaders equipped with strong analytical and strategic thinking skills. The institute has consistently attracted top-tier recruiters across various industries, and people across the industry keep a close eye during its placement season.

Getting a <keyword id="20488964" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="job-offer" source="keywords">job offer</keyword> in today's time might feel like half the battle won. The job market, especially in the tech sector, has been quite intense for the last few years and for international students, as per a <keyword id="19951562" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="LinkedIn" source="keywords" meta.keywordsubtype="org" meta.entityname="LinkedIn" meta.hostid="261" meta.entityid="LinkedIn">LinkedIn</keyword> user, things are quite challenging. The <keyword id="22004983" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="Indian-origin-engineer" source="keywords">Indian-origin engineer</keyword> living in the US took to the job-search platform to share his journey. He shared how he recently got a job offer from <keyword id="19903807" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="Elon-Musk" source="keywords">Elon Musk</keyword>'s <keyword id="19895433" type="General" weightage="100" keywordseo="Tesla" source="keywords" meta.keywordsubtype="org" meta.entityname="Tesla" meta.hostid="261" meta.entityid="Tesla">Tesla</keyword> after 500 cold emails, 300 plus applications and 10 interviews. <h2>Engineer gets job offer from Tesla</h2>The young international graduate in the U.S. took to LinkedIn and shared that he has finally secured a full-time role at Tesla as a Technical Support Specialist, after a five-month struggle of relentless job hunting. With over 300 applications, 500 cold emails, and numerous interviews, this success was hard-earned. Despite having solid credentials, including three internships, a strong <keyword id="20991885" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="gpa" source="keywords">GPA</keyword>, and extracurricular experience, the competitive job market proved challenging, especially for an international candidate dealing with visa pressures. During the job search, the candidate faced intense setbacks, including the loss of health insurance, housing, and the emotional strain of uncertainty around visa requirements. Living out of friends’ apartments and managing expenses on a tight budget, he persevered by treating job searching as a full-time endeavour, committing to hours of applications and interview preparation. <h2>"Was unemployed for months" </h2> "Despite having three internships, a good GPA, and active extracurriculars, I never imagined I would be in a position where I’d be unemployed for five months. I lost my lease, my health insurance, and constantly felt the ticking clock of my visa status, knowing I could be forced to leave the U.S. at any moment," his LinkedIn post read. However, he also shared that he made time to unwind in the evenings and weekends, acknowledging the importance of balancing this tough process with self-care. The now-Tesla employee shared practical tips and resources that made a difference in his journey, from cold-emailing potential employers to leveraging platforms like LinkedIn, Indeed, Handshake, and Jobright.ai for finding job openings. He added that with the help of ChatGPT+ for tailoring resumes and cover letters, he honed each application, turning every interview into a learning experience.

<ul class="summary-list"><li>The Soviet Union's strategy that precipitated the US exit from Vietnam holds lessons for Ukraine. </li><li>The Soviets and Chinese provided Vietnam with weapons that negated the US's airpower advantage.</li></ul>Ukraine can defeat Russia if it and its Western backers learn from America's failure in the Vietnam War, a Ukrainian security expert argues.That war has parallels with Ukraine's fight today. The North Vietnamese thwarted vastly superior American firepower with strategies backed by massive Soviet and Chinese military aid. They are a playbook for how Ukraine might compel Russia to <a target="_blank" href="https://www.businessinsider.com/trump-advisors-peace-plans-ukraine-demilitarized-zone-no-aid-russia-2024-11">make peace</a> within two years, argues Oleksandr Danylyuk, a former top Ukrainian security official and now an analyst for the Royal United Services Institute, a British think tank."The example of the Vietnam War is important primarily because victory for Ukraine is possible only if Russian troops are withdrawn from its territory," Danylyuk said in an <a target="_blank" href="https://rusi.org/explore-our-research/publications/rusi-newsbrief/lessons-vietnam-ukrainian-victory-plan">essay</a> for RUSI. "The creation of conditions under which Russia cannot and is not willing to continue the war, and therefore is forced to leave Ukraine, should be the strategic goal of the pro-Ukrainian coalition."Danylyuk attributes America's failure in Vietnam to a "protracted multi-dimensional strategy by the Soviet Union, on whose help it was completely dependent." The Soviet Union and China supplied Hanoi with ample weapons and other aid, including anti-aircraft weapons to neutralize the US's airpower advantages. The Soviets sent 15,000 military specialists such as air defense experts, while <a target="_blank" href="https://www.washingtonpost.com/archive/politics/1989/05/17/china-admits-combat-in-vietnam-war/6b9cb8a4-4d18-48bf-80d2-bea80f64057c/">China dispatched 320,000 personnel</a> who mostly handled combat support tasks such as logistics, freeing up North Vietnamese manpower for combat duties.Meanwhile, the burden of the war US economy became intolerable, as the Johnson administration refused to raise taxes or cut social programs, leading to deficit spending and inflation. <a target="_blank" href="https://www.businessinsider.com/largest-marches-us-history-2017-1">Anti-war protests</a> — some incited and financed by the Communist bloc — and war-weariness among the general public led the Nixon administration to withdraw American troops. By the time North Vietnamese tanks entered Saigon in 1975, the US was reeling from recession and high oil prices, with no more appetite to aid South Vietnam.Danylyuk admits that <a target="_blank" href="https://www.businessinsider.com/ukraine-facing-powerful-russian-offensive-in-east-grim-outlook-2024-11">Ukraine's situation</a> differs from North Vietnam's in many aspects. "It does not need the presence of allied troops to repel aggression, is not a technologically backward country, and has proven that it cannot only use, but also produce the most modern types of weaponry."Yet, ironically, Danylyuk believes that the keys to defeating Russia's invasion now can be found in the Soviet Union's multi-pronged strategy in Vietnam.<div type="image" title="US Marines wade through a rice paddy in an assault on Viet Cong positions in 1965." height="1383" width="2000" msid="115358659" hostid="261" sizebytes="304174"></div>The first prong of this strategy would be to "stabilize the frontline and to render any successful offensive actions by Russian troops impossible." This would require stopping the Russian <a target="_blank" href="https://www.businessinsider.com/ukraine-turns-tables-russia-drops-glide-bombs-on-its-territory-2024-8">glide bomb</a> attacks that are devastating Ukrainian frontline positions. Rather than trying to stop the bombs themselves, Danylyuk suggests the West provide more fighters armed with long-range air-to-air missiles — in particular <a target="_blank" href="https://www.businessinsider.com/why-ukraine-needs-gripen-fighter-jets-long-term-f-16s-2024-10">Sweden's Gripen jet</a> with Meteor missiles — to shoot down Russian aircraft before they can release glide bombs. His paper notes that the Soviets provided Vietnam 155 MiG fighters in three years alone.Or, if the West is willing to provide "several billion dollars," Ukraine can produce enough long-range <a target="_blank" href="https://newsukraine.rbc.ua/news/romania-and-ukraine-to-develop-neptune-missiles-1722693809.html">Neptune cruise missiles</a> to destroy the Russian airbases and aircraft from which the bombing runs are launched. These weapons would also force Russia to redeploy air defense systems, such as S-300 and <a target="_blank" href="https://www.businessinsider.com/russia-s-400-formidable-not-quite-up-to-the-hype-2024-5">S-400</a> anti-aircraft missiles, from Ukraine back to Russia. In addition, Ukraine should also try to kill as many Russian troops as possible to force the Kremlin into another mobilization likely to be deeply unpopular. "Accomplishing this task directly depends on Ukraine's ability to achieve fire parity on the contact line, which requires the West, in turn, to produce a sufficient amount of artillery ammunition," Danylyuk said.In 1965, when major US combat operations in Vietnam began, the majority of the American public <a target="_blank" href="https://www.statista.com/statistics/1334328/vietnam-war-us-public-opinion-mistake/">backed </a>US intervention. But a US commitment that swelled to 543,000 personnel by 1969, along with growing resentment over the draft and 58,000 American personnel killed, eroded that support.On the economic front, Danylyuk urges the West to bankrupt the Russian war effort by seeking to lower the price of oil, which provides much of Russia's revenues. He points to the collapse of the Soviet Union, caused in part by falling oil prices in the 1980s. This would require other nations to boost oil production to depress prices."It must be recognized that attempts to apply restrictions on the price of Russian oil alone have not worked, and without replacing Russia's share of the world market by increasing production elsewhere, the situation will remain favorable for Moscow," said Danylyuk. Indeed, Saudi Arabia and some of its OPEC allies plan to <a target="_blank" href="https://oilprice.com/Energy/Crude-Oil/How-Saudi-Oil-Policies-Could-Cripple-Russias-War-Effort.html">produce more oil</a> and cut prices.Psychologically, the West should tap into Russian <a target="_blank" href="https://www.businessinsider.com/russians-resisting-crackdown-war-dissidents-paying-2024-3">anti-war sentiment</a> — heavily suppressed by Vladimir Putin's government, but still simmering. "The only explanation for the lack of a mass anti-war movement and large-scale protests is the absence of an organized and popular opposition in Russia," Danylyuk said. "Under such conditions, there is no alternative to providing organizational and financial support for such a movement from the outside."Danylyuk's plan is ambitious, to say the least. Compelling Russia to make peace on the battlefield seems unlikely at least in the short term, as Russian forces advance slowly, <a target="_blank" href="https://www.businessinsider.com/russia-lost-1200-a-day-highest-since-war-began-intel-2024-5">painfully</a> but inexorably. Whether Saudi Arabia and other oil producers would choose to depress oil prices in the long term remains to be seen. Banking on the Russian public's anti-war sentiment is chancy, given the intense repression and propaganda of Putin's government.But the alternative is even worse, Danylyuk warns. Without a strategy to force Russia to <a target="_blank" href="https://www.businessinsider.com/what-trump-picks-mean-for-ukraine-skepticism-time-pressure-2024-11">end the war</a>, the outcome will be to "exhaust Ukraine and the West and allow Russia to implement its own multidimensional plan to end support for Ukraine, according to which Kyiv would be added to the list of cities that have become symbols of the West's geopolitical defeats: Kabul and Saigon."Michael Peck is a defense writer whose work has appeared in Forbes, Defense News, Foreign Policy magazine, and other publications.

The iPhone 16 and iPhone 16 Plus now boast a new Camera Control button, giving users quicker access to key functions. Both phones are powered by the upgraded Apple A18 chip and come with an improved dual-camera system that includes a new spatial capture feature for enhanced photography. Running on iOS 18 right out of the box, these models are set to receive further smart updates with upcoming software enhancements. The vanilla iPhone 16 features a 6.1-inch display, while the iPhone 16 Plus offers a larger 6.7-inch screen. Both displays are protected by Ceramic Shield technology and reach a peak brightness of 2,000 nits, though they continue to use 60Hz OLED panels. On the camera front, these models come with a 48MP main sensor capable of 2x zoom and a 12MP ultrawide camera that can now take macro shots. For selfies, a 12MP TrueDepth camera is included on both models. The iPhone 16 Pro and iPhone 16 Pro Max take things a step further, with bigger screens and narrower bezels. The Pro comes with a 6.3-inch display, while the Pro Max offers a 6.9-inch one. Both feature Retina XDR OLED screens with a smooth 120Hz refresh rate and up to 2,000 nits of brightness. Both phones are powered by the advanced A18 Pro chip and run on iOS 18. For photography enthusiasts, the Pro models pack a triple-lens setup, including a 48MP main camera, a new 48MP ultrawide lens, and a 12MP periscope camera offering 5x optical zoom. The front-facing camera remains a 12MP TrueDepth unit, and both Pro models now support 4K video recording at 120fps. Like the standard versions, they also come equipped with the new Camera Control button, making it easier than ever to snap photos and capture moments.

In such situations, every opportunity counts.Julia Toothacre and Jerry Lee at career consulting firm Wonsulting, spoke to Business Insider about the tiny details things that could cost you a job offer.<h2 id="e416a2b1-9357-4a3f-a052-f2556526c084">Only trying to impress the boss</h2>For in-person interviews, both Lee and Toothacre were in agreement that "the interview starts before you step into the room."They said candidates should try to impress everyone they meet at the company, not just the hiring manager or the boss.Lee, who previously worked at Google, said he would usually smile at the receptionist and chat a little before every interview."I've even heard of companies where they ask the receptionist what they thought of the candidate," he said."Every person you talk to, whether they do a coffee chat or show, assume they are an interviewer. It will go really, really long way."Toothacre said that she's had hiring managers tell her they got cut off while driving in by the candidate they were supposed to be interviewing later."I would hope that everybody would be kind and nice in general, but sometimes our head is in a different place so we have to make the extra effort," she added.<h2 id="89dc620f-a666-4883-8d18-564479160a01">Sitting before your interviewer sits down</h2>Once you're in the room, Lee said it's always a good idea to wait to sit down. "The interviewer sits first, and then you sit, or they start sitting, and then you'll sit," said Lee.This is both good manners and makes sure you don't both reach for the same seat, which could throw you off balance at the beginning of the interview, especially if you're already nervous."Manners are very important, and it's a small thing but it won't hurt."<h2 id="9bbe3623-dc4b-4d74-95c5-1a5046974afc">Using your phone to take notes</h2>Toothacre said it's good to have a pad of paper and a pen with you to take notes or work things out during the interview. "If you don't have anything, that is a signal to them that you're not necessarily taking the interview seriously."However, taking notes on your phone would be an even more serious error."Especially with the rise of ChatGPT, I've heard a lot of feedback from hiring teams — especially for technical roles like software engineering — that they never know if a candidate's work is fully theirs," said Lee, whose company specializes in prepping candidates for tech and finance jobs."In that context, doing your work on or taking notes on your phone could potentially come off as you cheating."If you absolutely have to use technology, Toothacre suggests using an iPad instead of a phone.<h2 id="36a8706c-997e-4551-a5e5-fcf06fe18368">Getting their extra-early</h2>Early birds tend to get the worm, but showing up earlier than 10-15 minutes before your scheduled time could work against you."Being too early could even inconvenience the team, especially if they staggered interviews on purpose," said Lee.Toothacre added that the 10-15-minute window shouldn't include time spent getting through security or finding the right room."If you have accessibility requirements, make sure to communicate with your recruiter beforehand about the building's access points so you don't lose time on the day."If you arrive early because you live far away from the interview site, Lee suggests taking walks outside to calm your nervous system down a bit before heading in.<h2 id="016f1a1d-8ea8-42b9-9b39-f0abbee3a846">Piling on the perfume</h2>You definitely want to smell good when meeting with prospective employers in person, but overpowering perfume could be a turn-off."Perfume is a really fine line," said Toothacre. "I would not spray anything like right before you walk in, because it's probably not going to dissipate quickly enough, and you don't know who could have an allergy."Toothacre advised finding a subtle scent or applying it an hour before the interview so there is still a hint of it but not enough to overwhelm someone in a closed space.At the end of the day, you will never have full control of whether you get hired or not, said Lee. "My whole principle on interviewing is just to minimize as many potential red flags as possible."Reach out to this reporter at <a target="_blank" class="" href="mailto:habraham@businessinsider.com">habraham@businessinsider.com</a> to share what your job-searching experience has been like.
