Olden days are gone, when just a degree would help an individual to get high profile job by giving bribe or using some other mean. Now it's high time, when the transparency in job recruitment has taken place.

3.5. Causes of Choosing Different Career Plan:

A student career plan influence by multicity of causes. Different student choose different career for different reason. The reasons we got in research work behind choosing different career are given below:

Reasons behind choosing Govt. Job:

Though a largest part of the students of BuA Dept. of Lu are not interested in joining Govt. job but few of them are thinking about Govt. job that are more safe, reliable & respectable than private job. Thats why they choose Govt. job.

Reason behind choosing Bank job:

According to some students of BBA program Bank Jobs are giving financial security & it is a very standard job. Most of female student want to be Banker because they feel socially secured in doing Bank Job than any other job.

Reason behind choosing job in Company:

From this research work we found many students think Companies Jobs are more growth full than any other job, & they can apply their full potentiality in their job and can make a good career.

Reason behind choosing family business:

Many students choose family business for enjoying freedom and sometime they forced to join in their family business. Many students have a tendency that they wont work as an student under a boss so that they choose the family business. They also think that already they have a family business, why they will go for further job.

Reason behind choosing Entrepreneurship:

Some students think they have to do something big & serve people where they can show their creativity & also can create employment opportunity for the society so they move to open new business which will be established as a Brand among all. They also think own business will give them more freedom than any other job . They also think that they will get identity by recognizing their job.

14 | P a g e

3.6. Different Thinking in Career Planning:

In this modern age most of wise people choose multiple careers. According to this tendency many of our students choose job and business together as well. They think job will give them safety and business will give them opportunity to be wealthy and do something big. However some students choose only one career and do not think for any other supportive career. In this research work we also find out that 73% of students have alternative career plans, but 27% of students are determined on their career plan & they havent alternative career plan. If they fail to achieve their career plan they will try again & again for achieving it.
