Hello,
As the famous saying goes “There will be as many opinions as men". What this means is that there will be as many opinions as you ask! Everybody has a right to have an opinion. But, there are some questions wherein both possible opinions may be correct. It depends on the issue in question and the personal experience of the one dishing out opinions. Higher studies or job first, and then higher studies is also one such topic where there will be enough people vociferously arguing that only their viewpoint is correct. But, life is not black & white, it's actually different shades of grey. If one starts on job after initial study, the touch with study vanishes. Also with availability of money habits change. Also, in some cases family size increases. In such scenario, taking out two years or so without any pay only for studies and at the same time supporting family is tough task. Of course if wife is earning then again things are different. On the other hand, once a student is in the flow of study environment, it's much easier to continue the study, finish it off and then once and for all take up job.To conclude, I would say that it's a choice of the individual.

NoSQL databases have an edge over the conventional relational DBMS.
Some of them are:
1) One doesn't need to know the structure of data beforehand as it is with the RDBMS (requires a fixed schema). The format/data model can be changed anytime without affecting the application driven by the database.
2) Using Hadoop implementations in conjugation with NoSQL database, data could be stored across 1000s of servers( volumes of data which even the biggest RDBMS can't handle). This data can be processed and retrieved really fast.
3) NoSQL databases use clusters of cheap commodity servers to manage the exploding data and transaction volumes, while RDBMS tends to rely on expensive proprietary servers and storage systems.

Hello,
Air Carnival Aviation Academy of Coimbatore was started in year 2008, under a different name, but has now metamorphosed into a full-fledged school of vocational skill based training in the sphere of Aviation. It is affiliated to Bharthiar University for some Courses and some of it's courses are approved by DGCA.On the other hand, Indian Aviation Academy of Mumbai is instrumental in giving training to skill based courses in the field of aviation industry. It has also wide bouquet of courses to offer to prospective students. It also has flying training courses. All in all, one can say that both these aviation industry related skill based training givers appear to be fine at first glance. However, one is in Coimbatore and the other is in Mumbai. It is therefore strongly advised that convenience and finance must be the two factors that should be decided during the time of admission.

Hello,
Hyderabad Aviation Academy and Hospitality Management is an institution that claims to impart vocational skills training via six different courses in the sphere of Aviation related subjects. However, many feedbacks are not positive. Even their website is presently suspended due to some reasons. Thus, at first glance it looks like that this institution needs to be avoided.On the other hand, TMI Academy of aviation based in Mumbai is going strong. It boasts of large bouquet of vocational skills based courses. These are as per IATA or trade bodies as the case may be. The alumni and other feedbacks are also very positive for this institution.Thus, based on above information it can be safely surmised that a student should prefer to take admission in TMI Academy rather than Hyderabad Aviation Academy and Hospitality Management.

STEPS TO BECOMING A GRAPHIC DESIGNER
1-START BUILDING YOUR SKILLS IN HIGH SCHOOL
It never hurts to start early in any field, but it is particularly important when it comes to graphic design. While in high school, students should take classes in art history, drawing, graphic arts and website design. They can put their emerging skills to use designing and producing the school newspaper or yearbook.
2-EARN A DEGREE IN GRAPHIC DESIGN
There was a time when a graphic designer could get hired strictly for their creative portfolio. Today, however, most employers are looking for designers with a more complete and well-rounded education, the kind only a college degree can provide.
3-COMPLETE INTERNSHIPS
Not all college programmes in graphic design require internships, but those that do offer students an exceptional opportunity to gain practical experience, to form professional relationships in the design community, and complete work suitable for presentation in their portfolio or design book.
4-CREATE A COMPELLING PORTFOLIO
While a solid resume is an important aspect of any job search, the biggest asset to someone looking for a job in graphic design is an impressive portfolio. Though graphic designers will need a resume, the only way for a prospective employer to understand an applicant's abilities is through a portfolio demonstrating a range of work and growth as a designer.
5-STAY CURRENT
Graphic design is a constantly changing and developing field. Designers must keep up with the commercial and artistic trends in the industry or they may find themselves quickly left behind. They must also remain current on new and updated computer graphics and design software programs, which are in a near constant state of evolution.
6-RETURN TO SCHOOL
Graphic designers may choose to advance their skills, creativity and deep knowledge of the field by adding a graduate degree or post-secondary certificate. There are Master's degree programmes created specifically for designers wishing to advance in theoretical studies (MA) or concentrate their work on a studio degree (MFA).
The average pay for a Graphic Artist / Designer is Rs 274,572 per year. Most people move on to other jobs if they have more than 10 years' experience in this career. Experience strongly influences salary for this job.

Hello,
Best colleges for Pilot training in India.
There are pointers that must be noted before selecting a flying school. It's not like buying vegetables. One would be spending close to Rs.50L for the course and, hence one must decide which college is best. What are these pointers? The ability of flying school to impart quality training, availability of infrastructure, availability of aircraft for training, availability of flying space, good weather days etc.
All of the above are quite critical areas. There was a time when Indian flying schools were taking very long time to complete mandated hours of flying, and hence Indian students started going abroad.
But, the situation has changed in India for the better. It is therefore advised that for every prospective flying schools above factors should be judged before finally selecting one for admission.

Hello,
Various courses and entrance exams: This is the issue that is faced by almost all students. The fact is that entrance examinations are conducted, whenever there is mismatch between what is offered and what is sought. IIT or IIM seats are in limited numbers, but admission seekers are in multiple times the availability of seats. Hence, entrance exam is conducted. This is the reason for NEET also. In many states, thousands of seats in engineering colleges are not getting filled, then there is no use of any entrance exam. This is because of the abundance, students want only a particular college hence to have merit based admission, and entrance exam helps.In aviation sector, there are many areas of skills and there is abundance of supply, and hence no entrance examination is conducted for vast majority of courses that impart skills to students. However, in miniscule cases when there is more demand than supply, institutions indeed resort to entrance exam to get best available talent.

Hello,
For becoming a pilot, one needs to join a flying school. Out of the two options given above, only one gives training to become Pilot and that is Flytech Aviation Academy of Secunderabad. With the shifting of commercial air operations to the newly constructed Shamsabad airport, Begumpet airfield is now available for training purpose and Flytech is fully taking advantage of it. Also, due to this here budding pilots can expect to complete their required and mandatory flying of 200 hours without any issues. Thus, the time required for getting the liscence is reduced to the minimum. This enables the student to get employment with an airlines quickly as compared with his counterparts in other flying academies that don't have such exclusive airfields. Thus, it can be seen that Hindustan Aviation Academy is for different skill based training in field of Aviation, but not in flying training. Hence, students must choose Flytech.
