Shiksha Top Questions

Biyani Group of Colleges offer placements through their dedicated placement cell. The Link http://www.placementsbiyani.com/ shares details of their efforts as well as a List of Employers visiting them. This list does not have Media Houses and That is why I shall not able to pronounce upon a judgement on the status of real placements. The observation from the filed and media houses is that the placements need improvements. Being a regional group of institutions, there are certain limitations, BUT for a good student there is no limitation and jobs shall come their way as college shall certainly approach the employers for media profiles. The possible Job profiles the students should keep an eye on:
There are various profiles for which the media houses approach the colleges or the college gets them for campus placements:
Journalist or Reporter with a Newspaper or Managing, News Reader, TV Reporter, Editor, Editor of a Newspaper and Content Writer, Teaching is also a good option for the Master's Degree.
You are eligible to appear in the UGC NET Examination that leads to Higher Education career.
Digital Marketing Expert, Public Relations Officer with Government as this is the qualification needed.
Corporate Communication Executive, Radio Jockey or Screen/Copy Writer, Event Manager

An advanced certificate (Considering it as something done from a reputed place as well as after graduation).
The answer that I gave for PG in Advertising Management prospects abroad and in India seems appropriate here:
An M.Sc in advertising management is a very popular-innovative as well as the less taken domain of studying mass media or mass communication. While doing the course, one learns how to see the need, plan, use the USP and create USP of the product in hand. The management of advertising of a particular product is to be done to see the impact. Along with this, the question demands response to career prospects for public relations. Public relations, on the other hand, has similar notions. The jobs that can be done abroad or in India after pursuing an M.Sc advertising management as well as a Public Relations Management degree are:
1. Teaching
2. Research
3. Job in a News Channels
4. Consultancy to get the Advertising Campaign done of a brand
5. Public Relationship Agencies
6. Event Management
7. Counsellor and Trainer
The above profiles can be developed for a job in the Advt. Management space.

The question does not share any information whether the course is a Diploma-Degree-PG or merely an add-on course as MOOC or training. Still, the answer is here based on general perceptions and replying considering the course as Graduation at least.
Government Job Opportunities for a course in Film, Television and 'New Media Production are good.
It is good that the question mentions NEW MEDIA because the largest number of jobs in the Media domain is on the 'INTERNET and WEB' based platforms. When we say NEW MEDIA, we acknowledge that there are fewer Jobs in the traditional media profiles.
Film: Making of Documentaries, Direction and Production of Serials/Short Movies/Features or Video works in PR Departments and Universities as well. Media Units, as well as the Cultural Affairs Departments, can hire.
Understand that there is more PROJECT based association with the government than JOBS.
Television: The same applies here as well as for films. The additional Job available are those of actors, News and Special Programmes as for CEC, Gyan Darshan, IGNOU etc.
New Media Production: Digital World and Internet-Based World. All Jobs that are on Internet can be done once the Public Relation Department decides to offer an opening.

A Diploma in Public Relations (Ideally a Post Graduate Diploma) shall help in getting Good Jobs through added Skills of Communication Skills, Interpersonal Skills, Corporate Communication.
Public Relations is much in demand as there are mandatory departments in all multinational companies as well as in small enterprises, even Universities and PSUs have these departments. It is always better to have the academic credential to claim a good job.
The guiding paragraph is as under:
Public Relations Management and Corporate Communication are the rising domains of careers because the corporates are finding it tough to reach the world without skilled professionals who make the best of communication.
The hiring is not just restricted to the offering by the Information and Public Relation Department. Any ministry or department that is dealing with people, has a need for someone with a Master's degree in mass communication/public relations, etc. These jobs are offered for the role of Public Relations Officer and have ample scope for the eligible people.
ABROAD: Corporate Communication and ADV/PR Management is one of the preferred domains in Mass Media abroad. The PR Agencies have lot to do there and have an active role in Media.

Direction - Films, Movies, Short Films, TV Serials, Features, Advertisement/TV Commercials etc. is a profile with the Public Relation, Doordarshan/Prasar Bharti divisions of the government. There is a possibility to get employed with the Universities and Film Production related government Institutions as well. Media Studies institutions managed by the government shall also offer jobs to Directors and Makers and Faculty.
Direction shall also be an eligibility to take Part Time or Project Based Jobs with the Government. Generally, LONG TERM Projects are also like Jobs when one gets employed in the government.

Hello,
To be more specific for your query, it is not worthy. If you are willing to make a career in acting and modeling through distance mode, I would like to say certain points:
(#) If you are very much aware of the current Bollywood conditions and trends, you don't need to be much qualified. On screen, what matters is your acting skills and how you present yourself. These qualities and skills cannot be generated from obtaining the certificates. These are generated through regular practice and on-stage demonstration. So, you don't have to go for any advance certificate in film and modeling course.
(#) If you think that getting the certificates is extremely important for you. Then you may. But don't go for distance learning mode. These are the certificates which give you quality, skills. And you can never master any skills while sitting at home. So do only through regular mode.
Hope this helps.
Upvote the answer if you feel satisfied.
Good luck.

I would not suggest you to go for a distance degree in fashion business management. Even if you will learn the theoretical part, you will have no knowledge about the practical. Fashion management is the art of taking a designer's vision from paper to the runway to the racks and, eventually, into the wardrobes of customers around the world. The programme gives students a deeper understanding of the business of fashion and what it takes to create successful fashion products.
One thing that can be done is if you are already into the system somehow, you can then pursue a distance course so as to get an official degree and become a professional individual.

You can pursue a Diploma or a certificate while pursuing a Bachelor of textiles. Textile design forms the core of the entire business of fashion. Rapidly expanding activities in the domestic and export sectors of the apparel and home fashion industry demands professional inputs in design and development of fibers and textiles. Textile design is presently the strategic value-adding activity that can make all the difference in transforming fashion business into an economically viable and profitable proposition.
The job prospects you can have after completing a degree and short-term courses are jobs in textile mills and export houses, with fashion designers, design studios, mills, buying houses, handloom cooperatives and buying agencies as Designer or Fabric Managers, or work independently as Designers or Entrepreneurs.

There is no need to pursue a parallel course along with a Bachelor of product design. Studying product design gives you the broad theoretical knowledge and practical skillset you'll need to use production methods and materials creatively.
You can find employment in both the private and public sector. Private sector work could include manufactured products for the domestic and industrial market. Working in the public sector may involve designing interactive facilities, such as public information points and equipment used by services such as the police, fire, and ambulance.
Employers include:
- industrial and domestic product manufacturers
- car manufacturers
- point-of-sale designers
- retailers.
Self-employment, or employment within a design-based consultancy, is also possible.
