I like how she is non judgemental, empathetic and accepting of the fact that different people can have different journey and be successful as they deem fit to be.
Idk why our youth is going behind cringe propoganda content these days. They don't have a stand of their own and are constantly manipulated by the so called "influences". Your channel is a really good initiative to bring the much needed awareness and facts in front of them. I hope more and more people become like you. I really appreciate the hard work you put into your videos!
Hi Naman, thanks for such an informative podcast. I'm a bit late, but I'd still be very fortunate to find this channel. I'm a Pakistani-born individual living in Cambridge, UK, and a student of politics at the age of 39. My aspiration is also like Priyanka's to be a tiny part of Development, Diplomacy, or Advocacy in civil service in the UK or become a part of the UN development program to help indigenous communities around the world. I feel more confident that I can resonate with people like you both. Best of Luck Mate! Keep doing the great work. 😎
What a discussion, deep, analytic, truthful, raw. Thank you so much Priyanka for taking out time for all of us. Thank you so much Naman for putting so much effort and energy into providing knowledge of other side of the world to us. I am deeply grateful to you. Blessings ✨
Got this suggestion video and thought of seeing it it's related to UPSC and kudos to you Naman,you nailed it. I happened to prepare for UPSC for 2 yrs i realised it was not for me and sailed in a different ship of corporate and enhanced my skills there and I am doing pretty well. Looking forward to such good content. best wishes.
@@krishnapriya038 I studied French Language and completed couple of certification and got placed in one of the big MNC. You can check the institute named Alliance Francise based in Delhi and get more details.

In the last few days, I have seen many comments - where many of you enquired about the "Salaries" in the Indian Foreign Services. Here's my response to that question : All civil servants who come through the UPSC exam start at the same level of salary - level 10 ie. the starting basic salary ie. ₹ 56100. For the next three promotions (levels 11, 12 & 13), IFS and IAS get 2 extra increments (6%). However, when posted abroad IFS officers get Foreign Allowance (FA) in lieu of Dearness Allowance (DA) which other home-based civil servants get. But the important point to note is that the FA is considerably larger than the DA. While DA is not dependent on the place of posting, FA is country-specific. This means that the FA of an IFS officer may actually decrease when she/he is posted to Islamabad vs. Belgrade Vs. New York City is at the same rank. On a totally related note - 1. I will respond to all your concerns/questions/doubts on TH-cam itself. I'm loving the UI/UX of the platform - so please do not hesitate to comment with your doubts on any of my posted videos. I will respond to ALL comments. 2. This is an extremely important video on analyzing careers in the Multilateral Organization. There are many other ways to contribute to the nation's growth - UPSC civil services is one of the many options available. I'm fairly certain, you all will gain immense value from the video - so please watch the entire video in one go. And do let me know your thoughts as well. Do let me know your thoughts on the Podcasts so far. :) If you wish to establish an ALT UPSC career - here's the application link : www.globalgovernanceinitiative.org/impact-fellowship All the best!
@@shubham16716 Here's an example of someone who came in from a tier 3 college - and is now working with the Government of India - th-cam.com/video/OA4YaeVZhsA/w-d-xo.html But please note - he worked really hard during the Impact Fellowship.
@@namanshrivastava firstly thanks for bringing this podcast, such an informative interaction. I am in my start of thirties. I have tried civil services in my twenties and failed but somehow got into IT, now with a decent paying job. My query - is it possible for me to have a transition into the policy making or governance related role at this age and if possible what should I do to make the transition and in what payscale I can get an opportunity. Kindly help me clarify my query. Thanks in advance.
MBA colleges and pvt companies care about your school marks and undergrad degree.. there's nothing wrong with that. Both these things have been in your control and it was upto you to do well in them. What is not in our control is the caste we're born in. And this exam cares A LOT about that.
Hi Aditi, you are correct about various aspects. I do sit on the board of one of the schools in the US. Allow me to assure you that MBA schools do NOT care about your marks in schools. They do are about how competitive your undergrad program is (could be solved for via various standardized test scores).
You asked one question regarding the financial aspect that not everyone can't afford institutes like Columbia but in the conversation it got left behind. May I know how to avail such institutes through scholarships or other means. Please answer that question.
Hi Arushi, GGI-Fletcher Scholars are given a guaranteed $20,000 scholarship (minimum) - if/when they are shortlisted to study at the Fletcher School of Law and Diplomacy. We are in talks with Tuck, Wharton, and CEIBS to build similar collaborations. Having said this - here are a few other scholarships that you can consider: 1. KC Mahindra 2. World Bank Scholarship 3. Rhodes 4. TATA
Not having good academics. Giving government exams continuosly but unable to see myself growing feeling bad every moment. Sitting jobless feeling hopeless

Thank you very much for these videos. Very insightfull! I do have a question: would you recommend to apply for several jobs at the UN at the same time on Ispira? Thank you in advance!
Hello sir, I have already given 2 attempt for upsc and haven't cleared pre.2023 would be my 3rd and last attempt at this exam. I am contemplating at various plan B option.I have a mechanical engg degree passed out in 2020. Do not have any relevant market skill set .I am in dilemma whether to start learning the skills from now on since it would take atleast 4-6 months and then seek jobs or to completely focus on prep at hand. Also one thing i am clear is I do not want to go into coding or IT industry. Please, if you may give some piece of advice regarding the same.
Just skipping the video after 42 mins. because i couldn't bear the way she is forcefully trying to own an accent and talk in it, which is not really hers. Its weird.
What's the big deal with UPSC. He anyway scored well in his CAT and got through IIM Kolkata and IIM Ahmedabad and he rejected that. Shows that Tharoor was clear on what he wanted. Most people have no clarity and end up in the rat race.
Hii Naman... I'm in graduation final year and wants to appear in pre 2023 ...but my optional is not prepared..so I want your advice whether I try for 2023 or go for 2024 ?
eye opening conversation sir! i graduated from IIT roorkee in 2021 and have been preparing for civil services ever since. listening to some sane advices, i feel adversed to make state services as plan B [also defense services is out of option due to age :( ]. the public policy path seems a very apt alternative to me. though , i had a few doubts wrt this, which i hope you could briefly touch upon . 1. is it possible for someone with my credentials ( no work experience , internships in industrial engineering, volunteering experience in rural development) to land up in SIPA/ fletcher/ HKS/ yale jackson by mere GRE score and average LOR? 2. does GGI help with securing admissions in the above mentioned institutions? 3. is a PhD in social sciences/policy/economics/IR a competitive alternative to civil services ? and thankyou very much for bringing out this wonderful and life saving content out there. nothing can change ones life more than a right mentor at the right time 🙏
1) No. Even if you get in you will not benefit for 3 reasons: 1. Your chances of scholarships are minimal. 2. You will find it extremely hard to get a job in the US. 3. You will not be able to contribute much in the classrooms with no work ex. 2_ Yes and No. We will not write applications for you. At GGI goal is to help people figure out great jobs without formal credentializations. We are cognizant of the fact of how expensive these degrees are - and in many cases, the curriculum isn't updated. However, GGI has a formal partnership with Fletcher and is developing one with Wharton and Tuck School of Business. As of now, Fletcher provides a guaranteed $20,000 scholarship to GGI-Fletcher Graduates (if shortlisted). Additionally, GGI Impact Fellowship is counted as a work experience - where you do get a chance to replicate a real work policy consulting experience. Such experience could further improve your profile. 3. Yes. A very good friend of mine - Dhiraj was an OSD in Niti Aayog (at a rank equivalent to that of Joint Secretary). He wasn't a civil servant (rather a had a PhD in economics from Cambridge). Regardless of your decisions. I wish you all the very best! :)
I m glad that I found this video .... currently I m not able to understand a few things but after 1year I will understand these conversation in new and better way 😇 A few things I understood are # upsc prep help u in different ways (it prepares you mentally , emotionally , increases interpretation power and knowledgeable ). # maximum time your university matters . # utilise people's time carefully because next meeting will depend on your last meeting. # mindset matters the most ( believe in yourself) I m 18+ and I m proud that I want to participate in such conversation /work for overall human development (I want to learn more). I want you to let you know that from now on I will be your permanent viewer and I hope your channel will reach many aspiring students not just youngsters but different age groups and different nations . We want your content to be more productive .✨
Wow! I got goosebumps after watching this episode, Naman.👏🏼 Though I'm 35+ and the ship has sailed for me, I love how you're making the college-going students aware of the professional choices they have rather than getting stuck in a handful of career cycles.
@@madeeasyfinance why would you say the ship has sailed? I'm 37 and I pivoted in my career at 36 a year ago. I think it's a typical Indian stigma where we associate everything with age. You're yet to experience so many facets of life man.
@@shivinunitholi2493 Thanks for your comment, mate! I said about the sailed ship in context with the CSE and jobs at the UN. Other than that, I'm a freelancer and improving everyday to float my business down the line. ✌🏼🙌🏼
@@madeeasyfinance ah gotcha. Yes there are certain jobs for which early preps are required. Still I think you could apply to voluntary assignments with UN agencies and build your connect depending on where you're located. Just a suggestion. Good luck man!
I am also a UPSC aspirant and going to give my first attempt in 2023, I’ve heard lot about how hard this exam is but having that perception shouldn’t stop anyone to start this journey. It’s my 6 month of preparation and I’ve learned so much that now I wouldn’t settle anything less than joining IFS. When I first read the title, first think that came to my mind was that why so much proud of joining most useless org in the world write now, nobody take it seriously including USA(ex:chemical bombs by us in Vietnam and no action was taken against it), then how would other countries like Russia,china will take it seriously. Only good thing UN has that is big hall where every country has a seat to speak and blame each other. I am able to say only bcoz I’ve learned about them while for a common man UN is like world court where you get justice. Anyway, this channel has lot of valuable content and thanks for uploading it.😊

Gave my fist attempt this year with unwavering dream of joining Indian Foreign Service. I was pretty confident in all the mocks & pyqs test given but well, we all know how abruptly they changed things this year. Will be reflecting and working on future strategies. Add me you two people, would like to stay in touch.
This was informative and made alot of things clear but i would also like to ask and know about the courses which could be frutiful for a career in development sector. As i have recently completed my graduation and now i am looking for masters degree in development sector
I don't know if you are aware or not but UPSC is one of many career ruining exams that happen in India, UPSC is still fine cos at the end of the journey you either get your goal or u get Insane amount of social science knowledge. let's talk about CA, I have seen and I know so many who have spend 7-10 years ( 6 years assumed normal) in CA giving attempts, learning things which may go totally useless ( thanks to Al) and still slogging in for same degree. CA has passing percentage in single digits 5-8percent in Final level. The most miserable combination is - Lowr middle class family+ Avg brain+ Family Issues+ no money to even pay for govt colleges - all this together weave a tightly knit web 🕸️ which engulfs you. No matter how hard you try to break, it wouldn't break. It will keep sucking life out of you.
Once I was also CA aspirant...the. One day I quit... and 3 yrs i was in depression...bcz I failed and secondly bcz we don't have money...so I was just depressed...I don't know what to do...I satrted giving tution... for my expenses and today I am 25 unemployed but I came out of depression now I am learning few skills to atleast get a job...that's it...but I am happy atleast I am out of that sadness that depression...I know I am too old...but I try not. To think about my age...and focus on getting job...I even don't know why I am writing this...but I wanted to
Thank you so much for going into the purpose, structural entryways and tributaries of how to get into development rather than the mainstream It has made so many things much clearer Special thanks to Priyanka as well for her presence and effort to help while being sick 🙏🏻
I did my graduation in physics hons from amritsar university after that i gave my attempts of upsc wid my professional degree in b.e.d .....sir can you plz assist personally how to get admission in this coarse if one wanna do masters from foreign but at low prices with all scholarahip possible as i cant afford that mucu cost?
It’s an insightful watch. I’m presently pursuing Master’s in Public Policy in STI from IIT-Delhi, after completing BTech in 2018 & giving 4 years to UPSC preparation. Can you help me with what are the course areas / skills that I need to learn? From the Video, Econometrics is one. Plus, if it’s possible to connect with you directly in any way?

Hi Naman sir ,Thanks for such a wonderful podcast ,i feel really lucky to have found this , i come from a very remote area in Bihar ,where it is said that most of the UPSC aspirants come from ,i believe one of the reason is that we are not aware of other career opportunities where one can earn respect ,though things are changing but for only very few .Most of us come from lower middle class background but we have very big dreams ,but all we can do is hard work & many of us do not get proper guidance while choosing our career path . I myself have studied Chinese Language from JNU for 5 years ,have a master's degree but i feel it's just on paper,it's all i have ,but I do not have any practical knowledge of it .I worked in corporate sector but i was not satisfied there .Now i feel lost as I do not know what skills should I learn to make a space for myself in this competitive world .As a kid I wanted to work for the development of society around me or at a larger level but i had no idea how i can do that .Now all i wish is to get some right guidance in my late 20s.Kindly guide if possible .
The wholesome response/reason for me preparing UPSC is 1: grow in life want to face competition 2: want to uplift my people(community)/state 3: want to challenge my vision Will try for 2-3 attempts seriously,I know the fact 99% fail exam but for my vision UPSC can bypass
Sir, i am preparing for upsc and its going to be my second last attempt in 2023....i am in my 30's and don't have any job experience, So want to know, how to move forward as i feel its very late to look for other alternative. Can i apply for other study programs abroad and would it be a problem as there is huge gap in my studies
I've completed the preparation of upsc and it has changed my perspective till now. I don't know whether I will give the exam or not in the future but yes I am a better person now and can think in various ways in any field. Thank you for this podcast 🙌
naman i'm 27+, and I made a blunder of preparing for civil services and other government exams for many years and along with doing a 3 year law degree as a backup. now I'm totally hopeless and depressed regarding my future. please suggest me something

sir firstly thank you for informative videos and my name is tamrsha and i completed my graduation in BA and prepare for upsc but i am stuck now that how to choose my career in PG courses or which course is better for future because in india education system is very weak mostly exams are leaked and i dont able to understand what i do because my financial condition is also not good so i request you sir please tell me what i do please guide me🙏🙏
But still she got into Columbian University by giving GRE, TOEFL and all, people are there who are brightest but as they born into poor family can't get into Colombia University. In India there is no opportunity unless u r from reservation category or from a rich family or ur fathere/mother is govt. servant.
Hi! I think about for giving the upsc exam but in part of mind i also thik about the job in UN Today, I am in my graduation 2nd year .. Can you tell me that how i can do job in UN.
Sir.. this was my 5th attempt in UPSC. I did my law and immediately started preparing for UPSC been continuously preparing for it but unable to clear prelims.. and this time also I don't think I ll make it. Plz plz plz suggest me some career opportunities after gaining experience of UPSC journey of 5 yrs
Amazing work. Could you guide me to join UN as information systems officer. I 2:06 have experience of 14 years in the ICT . I am an armed forces veteran.
Hello sir, i want to ask a single question that i am a graduate from a plain BA degree and not even from any good recognised college, then is it possible for me to enter into such big organisation, will they accept??
I was preparing for upsc for past 4 years,and I have post graduate in physics. Does its necessary to have degree in humanity for applying job in UN please let me know
Hey Naman - Pleasure watching this podcast series. Out & Out eye opener ! Thanks to you/Priyanka/GGI in opening up much more fascinating/meaningful opportunities existence. A good 2hrs spent watching this. Now, this has given me the cue to watch other videos in this series :) Looking forward to discuss with you on the GGI platform in near future.
I felt extremely motivated after watching this video. Sir, I am a 2018 passout from Tiss Mumbai. I did my Masters in social work with specialization in criminology and justice. I have been preparing for upsc since 2018, and I'm still struggling. I'm at the lowest phase of my life where I don't have work experience and am now struggling to find a job for myself as I can't keep toiling my sanity without a backup. I'm going to be 27, and I'm extremely sad that my upsc decision has failed me miserably. At the moment, all I have is a PG degree with a net in social work. I have applied for a PhD. as well, but I'm still passionate about upsc, but I'm extremely skeptical about sitting through this excruciating process called upsc without a backup plan, so kindly help me to come out of this mess sir 🙏

Because they re-instill my hope. I have gained more insights to build a better strategy for myself. I am very grateful, Mr. Naman Srivastava! I, however have a question how large of a difference is it to work at the UN and to work as an Indian IFS officer on a foreign mission?
@@namanshrivastava If I want to get into UN, may I ask you to suggest a master's course between applied data science and international relations OR public policy? And also, which country is more preferred to pursue masters: US or Canada?
So what she basically meant to say was that she couldn't land a seat at IFS being a general category candidate 😂 , as if the reserved ones are served a platter without any hardwork lol

@Naman Shrivastava firstly thanks for bringing this podcast, such an informative interaction. I am in my start of thirties. I have tried civil services in my twenties and failed but somehow got into IT, now with a decent paying job.

Kindly help me clarify my query. Thanks in advance.
Yes - the pay scale depends on what you bring to the table. I'm currently advising a few governments in Eastern Europe and my salary is equivalent to that of a partner in BCG/McKinseyey in a similar Geography. At the same time, there are early entrants who might make less than what an intern might make in the MBBs.
Thank u Naman for this wonderful podcast. Was waiting for a podcast on this particular topic for many months. Gained extremely valuable insights regarding how to land into a role at a Multilateral institution like UN, WB, WEF etc. during my UPSC prep hiatus. Hope to interact with you in person one day during my GGI Impact fellowship journey. Cheers✌️🙏

In the last few days, I have seen many comments - where many of you enquired about the "Salaries" in the Indian Foreign Services.
Here's my response to that question :
All civil servants who come through the UPSC exam start at the same level of salary - level 10 ie. the starting basic salary ie. ₹ 56100. For the next three promotions (levels 11, 12 & 13), IFS and IAS get 2 extra increments (6%).
However, when posted abroad IFS officers get Foreign Allowance (FA) in lieu of Dearness Allowance (DA) which other home-based civil servants get. But the important point to note is that the FA is considerably larger than the DA.
While DA is not dependent on the place of posting, FA is country-specific. This means that the FA of an IFS officer may actually decrease when she/he is posted to Islamabad vs. Belgrade Vs. New York City is at the same rank.

@@shubham16716 Here's an example of someone who came in from a tier 3 college - and is now working with the Government of India - th-cam.com/video/OA4YaeVZhsA/w-d-xo.html
But please note - he worked really hard during the Impact Fellowship.
@@namanshrivastava Thanks for the reply, although it didn't address the complete question.
@@namanshrivastava firstly thanks for bringing this podcast, such an informative interaction.
I am in my start of thirties. I have tried civil services in my twenties and failed but somehow got into IT, now with a decent paying job. My query - is it possible for me to have a transition into the policy making or governance related role at this age and if possible what should I do to make the transition and in what payscale I can get an opportunity. Kindly help me clarify my query. Thanks in advance.
Very informative! Grateful for the video. Subscribed! 👍👍
Thanks for your kind words, Geetika! I wish you all the very best! :)
MBA colleges and pvt companies care about your school marks and undergrad degree.. there's nothing wrong with that. Both these things have been in your control and it was upto you to do well in them. What is not in our control is the caste we're born in. And this exam cares A LOT about that.
Hi Aditi, you are correct about various aspects. I do sit on the board of one of the schools in the US. Allow me to assure you that MBA schools do NOT care about your marks in schools. They do are about how competitive your undergrad program is (could be solved for via various standardized test scores).
Insightful Conversation
Thanks Kaushik! I wish you all the very best :)
Naman Sir at 42:50, Priyanka maam must got that…..😅😅
You are gem for us keep it up
Thanks for your kind words! I wish you all the very best :)
You asked one question regarding the financial aspect that not everyone can't afford institutes like Columbia but in the conversation it got left behind. May I know how to avail such institutes through scholarships or other means. Please answer that question.
Hi Arushi,
GGI-Fletcher Scholars are given a guaranteed $20,000 scholarship (minimum) - if/when they are shortlisted to study at the Fletcher School of Law and Diplomacy.
We are in talks with Tuck, Wharton, and CEIBS to build similar collaborations.
Having said this - here are a few other scholarships that you can consider: 1. KC Mahindra 2. World Bank Scholarship 3. Rhodes 4. TATA
Sir I have completed master in Peace and conflict studies is there any scope in un i am fresher
Not having good academics. Giving government exams continuosly but unable to see myself growing feeling bad every moment. Sitting jobless feeling hopeless

Thank you very much for these videos. Very insightfull! I do have a question: would you recommend to apply for several jobs at the UN at the same time on Ispira? Thank you in advance!
Hello sir,
I have already given 2 attempt for upsc and haven't cleared pre.2023 would be my 3rd and last attempt at this exam.
I am contemplating at various plan B option.I have a mechanical engg degree passed out in 2020.
Do not have any relevant market skill set .I am in dilemma whether to start learning the skills from now on since it would take atleast 4-6 months and then seek jobs or to completely focus on prep at hand.
Also one thing i am clear is I do not want to go into coding or IT industry.
Please, if you may give some piece of advice regarding the same.
Hi Asmit, thanks for your comment. You'd find this video to be of relevance.

Hey, so I am from a Commerce Background, but I want to enter the economics and international relations space, so what additional courses should i do?
Just skipping the video after 42 mins. because i couldn't bear the way she is forcefully trying to own an accent and talk in it, which is not really hers. Its weird.
What's the big deal with UPSC. He anyway scored well in his CAT and got through IIM Kolkata and IIM Ahmedabad and he rejected that. Shows that Tharoor was clear on what he wanted. Most people have no clarity and end up in the rat race.
Well said, Shivin!
Hii Naman...
I'm in graduation final year and wants to appear in pre 2023 ...but my optional is not prepared..so I want your advice whether I try for 2023 or go for 2024 ?
If you are dicey, don't waste your attempt.

@@namanshrivastava sir aapne itna acche words use kiya bahut accha laga sir 🥰
there are non hindi speakers also in this country :)
eye opening conversation sir! i graduated from IIT roorkee in 2021 and have been preparing for civil services ever since. listening to some sane advices, i feel adversed to make state services as plan B [also defense services is out of option due to age :( ]. the public policy path seems a very apt alternative to me.
though , i had a few doubts wrt this, which i hope you could briefly touch upon .
1. is it possible for someone with my credentials ( no work experience , internships in industrial engineering, volunteering experience in rural development) to land up in SIPA/ fletcher/ HKS/ yale jackson by mere GRE score and average LOR?
2. does GGI help with securing admissions in the above mentioned institutions?
3. is a PhD in social sciences/policy/economics/IR a competitive alternative to civil services ?
and thankyou very much for bringing out this wonderful and life saving content out there. nothing can change ones life more than a right mentor at the right time 🙏
1) No. Even if you get in you will not benefit for 3 reasons: 1. Your chances of scholarships are minimal. 2. You will find it extremely hard to get a job in the US. 3. You will not be able to contribute much in the classrooms with no work ex.
2_ Yes and No. We will not write applications for you. At GGI goal is to help people figure out great jobs without formal credentializations. We are cognizant of the fact of how expensive these degrees are - and in many cases, the curriculum isn't updated. However, GGI has a formal partnership with Fletcher and is developing one with Wharton and Tuck School of Business. As of now, Fletcher provides a guaranteed $20,000 scholarship to GGI-Fletcher Graduates (if shortlisted). Additionally, GGI Impact Fellowship is counted as a work experience - where you do get a chance to replicate a real work policy consulting experience. Such experience could further improve your profile.
3. Yes. A very good friend of mine - Dhiraj was an OSD in Niti Aayog (at a rank equivalent to that of Joint Secretary). He wasn't a civil servant (rather a had a PhD in economics from Cambridge).
Regardless of your decisions. I wish you all the very best! :)
@@namanshrivastava thankyou very much for such an elaborate reply.
U.K. or U.S. which is the best place to pursue public policy? Can anyone help me to get clarity in this regard? Thanks in advance.
I m glad that I found this video .... currently I m not able to understand a few things but after 1year I will understand these conversation in new and better way 😇
A few things I understood are
# upsc prep help u in different ways (it prepares you mentally , emotionally , increases interpretation power and knowledgeable ).
# maximum time your university matters .
# utilise people's time carefully because next meeting will depend on your last meeting.
# mindset matters the most ( believe in yourself)
I m 18+ and I m proud that I want to participate in such conversation /work for overall human development (I want to learn more). I want you to let you know that from now on I will be your permanent viewer and I hope your channel will reach many aspiring students not just youngsters but different age groups and different nations . We want your content to be more productive .✨
Wow! I got goosebumps after watching this episode, Naman.👏🏼 Though I'm 35+ and the ship has sailed for me, I love how you're making the college-going students aware of the professional choices they have rather than getting stuck in a handful of career cycles.
Hi! Do share your name. You are very kind, and thank you so much for your kind words across all videos. All the best!
@@namanshrivastava I'm Anurag.
@@madeeasyfinance why would you say the ship has sailed? I'm 37 and I pivoted in my career at 36 a year ago. I think it's a typical Indian stigma where we associate everything with age. You're yet to experience so many facets of life man.
@@shivinunitholi2493 Thanks for your comment, mate! I said about the sailed ship in context with the CSE and jobs at the UN. Other than that, I'm a freelancer and improving everyday to float my business down the line. ✌🏼🙌🏼
@@madeeasyfinance ah gotcha. Yes there are certain jobs for which early preps are required. Still I think you could apply to voluntary assignments with UN agencies and build your connect depending on where you're located. Just a suggestion. Good luck man!
I am also a UPSC aspirant and going to give my first attempt in 2023, I’ve heard lot about how hard this exam is but having that perception shouldn’t stop anyone to start this journey. It’s my 6 month of preparation and I’ve learned so much that now I wouldn’t settle anything less than joining IFS.
When I first read the title, first think that came to my mind was that why so much proud of joining most useless org in the world write now, nobody take it seriously including USA(ex:chemical bombs by us in Vietnam and no action was taken against it), then how would other countries like Russia,china will take it seriously. Only good thing UN has that is big hall where every country has a seat to speak and blame each other. I am able to say only bcoz I’ve learned about them while for a common man UN is like world court where you get justice.
Anyway, this channel has lot of valuable content and thanks for uploading it.😊
Well UN is not as useless as you are

I am even going to give my first attempt in 2023
Gave my fist attempt this year with unwavering dream of joining Indian Foreign Service. I was pretty confident in all the mocks & pyqs test given but well, we all know how abruptly they changed things this year. Will be reflecting and working on future strategies. Add me you two people, would like to stay in touch.
This was informative and made alot of things clear but i would also like to ask and know about the courses which could be frutiful for a career in development sector. As i have recently completed my graduation and now i am looking for masters degree in development sector
Will make a detailed video on this! :)
I don't know if you are aware or not but UPSC is one of many career ruining exams that happen in India, UPSC is still fine cos at the end of the journey you either get your goal or u get Insane amount of social science knowledge.
let's talk about CA, I have seen and I know so many who have spend 7-10 years ( 6 years assumed normal) in CA giving attempts, learning things which may go totally useless ( thanks to Al) and still slogging in for same degree. CA has passing percentage in single digits 5-8percent in Final level.
The most miserable combination is - Lowr middle class family+ Avg brain+ Family Issues+ no money to even pay for govt colleges - all this together weave a tightly knit web 🕸️ which engulfs you. No matter how hard you try to break, it wouldn't break. It will keep sucking life out of you.
Once I was also CA aspirant...the. One day I quit... and 3 yrs i was in depression...bcz I failed and secondly bcz we don't have money...so I was just depressed...I don't know what to do...I satrted giving tution... for my expenses and today I am 25 unemployed but I came out of depression now I am learning few skills to atleast get a job...that's it...but I am happy atleast I am out of that sadness that depression...I know I am too old...but I try not. To think about my age...and focus on getting job...I even don't know why I am writing this...but I wanted to
Thank you so much for going into the purpose, structural entryways and tributaries of how to get into development rather than the mainstream
It has made so many things much clearer

Hi Naman sir ,Thanks for such a wonderful podcast ,i feel really lucky to have found this , i come from a very remote area in Bihar ,where it is said that most of the UPSC aspirants come from ,i believe one of the reason is that we are not aware of other career opportunities where one can earn respect ,though things are changing but for only very few .Most of us come from lower middle class background but we have very big dreams ,but all we can do is hard work & many of us do not get proper guidance while choosing our career path .
I myself have studied Chinese Language from JNU for 5 years ,have a master's degree but i feel it's just on paper,it's all i have ,but I do not have any practical knowledge of it .I worked in corporate sector but i was not satisfied there .Now i feel lost as I do not know what skills should I learn to make a space for myself in this competitive world .As a kid I wanted to work for the development of society around me or at a larger level but i had no idea how i can do that .Now all i wish is to get some right guidance in my late 20s.Kindly guide if possible .
The wholesome response/reason for me preparing UPSC is
1: grow in life want to face competition
2: want to uplift my people(community)/state
3: want to challenge my vision
Will try for 2-3 attempts seriously,I know the fact 99% fail exam but for my vision UPSC can bypass
I wish you all the best! :)
Such a wholesome episode. Thanks for inspiring 😁!!
Thanks, Soumya! all the very best.
Sir, i am preparing for upsc and its going to be my second last attempt in 2023....i am in my 30's and don't have any job experience,

@Naman Shrivastava firstly thanks for bringing this podcast, such an informative interaction.
I am in my start of thirties. I have tried civil services in my twenties and failed but somehow got into IT, now with a decent paying job. My query - is it possible for me to have a transition into the policy making or governance related role at this age and if possible what should I do to make the transition and in what payscale I can get an opportunity. Kindly help me clarify my query. Thanks in advance.
Yes - the pay scale depends on what you bring to the table. I'm currently advising a few governments in Eastern Europe and my salary is equivalent to that of a partner in BCG/McKinseyey in a similar Geography.
At the same time, there are early entrants who might make less than what an intern might make in the MBBs.
@@namanshrivastava thanks for the reply. Continue with the great work.
Thank u Naman for this wonderful podcast. Was waiting for a podcast on this particular topic for many months.
