10 Tech Career Boosters

This guide is for students just starting out in the IT industry, but could just as well apply to anyone who wants to set themselves apart in a competitive global environment. Going by most media and industry reports, technology industries in India are starting to bounce back from the global slowdown. Our country might not be faring as badly as others are right now, but that still doesn’t mean all is well on the job search front. Many of the workers laid off earlier this year are still finding it hard to get new jobs, since companies are only just starting to recover and aren’t looking at expansion opportunities yet. With so many experienced workers and so few job openings, things don’t look very good at all for the lakhs of freshers who will be graduating six or eight months from now and entering the job market for the first time. “IT” as a career option is a fairly vague, nebulous idea.

It’s been a long road for Arnold Schwarzenegger. From working out in ice cold temperatures, to winning Mr. Olympia, to become an action star, to becoming the Governor of California, you don’t get a more diverse and awesome success story than Arnold’s. But what I’m particularly impressed with are the Governor’s old days, before he was a movie star. The guy absolutely loved chicks and showing off in front of them. He was actually similar to his Conan character. Plus he loved to party. Any time the dude wasn’t bench pressing he was hitting on ladies and doing “other things.” Here are some awesome old school pictures of Arnold Schwarzenegger: Is she really that short? Ah the lovely Raquel Welch Come on, I don’t bite. Numero Uno Baby! Yay! It’s Mr. Gold! Taking some classes

The 22-year-old former builder spends most of his time entertaining tourists by acrobatically climbing Chitradurga Fort, Karnataka . He fearlessly and effortlessly goes up 300-feet-high walls without a safety harness and hundreds of eyes watching from down below. Young mister Rai says he developed his climbing skills by watching monkeys climb trees and trying to reproduce stunts from his favorite films. He hopes he’ll soon be recognized as the world’s greatest climber. The real Spiderman says he has never wore safety equipment and has never had one accident. He believes his ability to see footholds others can’t is proof he was born to climb. He practices every day and does Yoga to maintain his flexibility. A big fan of French climber Alain Robert , Jyothi Rai hopes to achieve his success and one day open a school for climbers. Be sure to watch the video at the bottom, it’s really something!
