Applications may be submitted for Fall and Spring terms. Is it harder to get in for a Spring term, or is it about equal?

Consider a leading Advertising Guru in India, by qualification is a Master of Computer Application. An economics graduate with an MBA heads the India operations of a large IT hardware MNC in India. The only thing constant is change. Does it apply to careers ?
Career is a journey and not a destination
Many have been in the dilemma of pursuing success and money on one hand , abilities and role on the other. It is not unusual to find out later, that in between expectations and reality their is a void. For a vast majority of people ,gaps exist between interests and alignment, specific abilities and available roles , leading to stagnation or growth. With the advent of converged networks and mobile technology, music and entertainment industry has become a meal for the mobile telephony service providers. Position of clerks in the banks have disappeared . So career now is more of a journey where one constantly aligns and realigns to new realities by enhancing ones employability and relevance all the time.
Planning a career
This a process and not an event in life. The start up point of any career is an honest assessment of who you are in relation to what you do. Alignment and interest drives motivation. Look inward and see what drives you. Working with people, rules, constancy, may impact your inclination. Likewise your abilities and skills to work with complexities, generalities or specialities may impact performance. Background and experience and its relevance with current and future roles may point out opportunities or challenges. Adorable professional role model can be a great source for potential mentor who can offer valuable insights. Bill Gates chose Warren Buffet as his mentor. Document it by writing out the as is and desired state( where are you today and where do you wish to be over time) after an iterative process with your life partners, mentor and stakeholders who know you well and are conversant with your interest and ability.
Implementing
In the 21st Century opportunities abound, and hence it is possible to select job options of task , and assignment, with flexibility of time , values , interest, on roles that are either contractual or fulltime. In this age of exponential knowledge growth, jobs and “hierarchies” are giving way to roles and “wirearchies” , a change from doing things right to doing the right things. Create an idea that can show your expertise to people who may need it. Bounce it of with partners like mentor, peers, friends and family who can help you with it. Since surprises and setbacks come from unexpected quarter , allow humour to take precedence over road rage. Like a doctor create a viral marketing program where the expertise is made known without an ad campaign.
Excelling in career is about making things happen and here is how :- Be an ACTOR
Acceptance – Identifying with the role and linking personal interest
Challenge – Dealing with issues and sorting them helps create a brand
Triggers- Creating small opportunties that can galvanise and move like a sprocket on a wheel
Observing – Scanning continuosly for change and addressing it
Reaching- Serve by reaching out
Reviewing and setting course correction
You have a mirror and see yourself everyday. Well if you did that so often you may not notice what has changed. Open a clothes closet and wear a old piece of garment and see how that fits. Chances are it may or may not fit. Likewise , it is important to review a plan at certain periodicity. May be once in two years or as frequent as it may be necessary to reassess and make changes accordingly. The chef tastes food at different stages of preparation to ensure that the taste will meet majority approval.
The final words
Mr Vineet Nayar – CEO of HCL opines about career plan and development ”at the end of college, write it down honestly, in 100 words or whatever it is, and put it in a box. I call it the magic box. Revisit it once a year or once every two years and say, how honest are you to that? Don’t let anybody run your life. That, in my mind, is very, very important. You should be in control of your life.”
Siddhartha Bhattacharjee
I am an executive by profession, manager by education, mentor by interest , coach by impusle. Life has been a series of spikes and thank God for these great swings of successes and failures alike.Great to think that it was not routine and stable for I learned a lot from these experiences.
Economics and Health
The job loss caused by the recession directly impacts all physicians income. When millions of people lose their jobs, they also lose their health care insurance and physicians lose patients that can pay. Hopefully the job loss is a short term set back, but it does affect demand for services and income for physicians immediately. This in effect destroys the underlying projections of the growth of demand made just a few years ago. Until the economy picks up and the unemployment drops from 10% to the 4 to 5% area there is a great possibility that the demand for all health care services based on per crash assumptions is optimistic.
Shortage of Anesthesiologists
From 1995 the number of anesthesiologists graduating from residency programs decreased. According to the American Society of Anesthesiologists the number of American anesthesia residency graduates decreased from 1,547 in 1995 to only 392 in 2000. During the same period, the number of practicing anesthesiologists increased by less than 9 percent, according to the AMA. This compares with a 13 percent increase in the number of physicians in all specialties.
CRNAs
The rising cost of health care can dramatically affect demand for physicians services. CRNAs, who can perform many of the routine duties of physicians at a fraction of the cost, may be increasingly used. Furthermore, demand for physicians services is highly sensitive to changes in health care reimbursement policies. If changes to health coverage result in higher out-of-pocket costs for consumers, they may demand fewer physician services.
In rural settings, CRNAs are the sole anesthesia providers in nearly two thirds of all hospitals. CRNAs are also the main provider of obstetrical anesthesia in the United States.
Increase in the Demand for Anesthesia Services
The National Center for Health Statistics states inpatient surgeries were flat between 1994 and 2000. While the number of anesthesia providers has remained relatively constant in recent years, surgical volumes have increased nationwide, placing greater demand on the providers of anesthesia services.
Bad Economy and Aging Population
The recent stock market collapse is having a major impact on older physicians decisions of all specialties. Many doctors are postponing retirement for a few years, because of the losses they sustained in their retirement accounts. However, even a few years delay of retirement won’t address the increased demands caused by this impending loss of experienced physicians. This postponement has already resulted in fewer jobs being offered and graduating residents not finding as many good opportunities as before. Some residents rather than committing themselves to less desirable full time jobs are opting for locum Anesthesia jobs.
Health Insurance Reform
The final question is the outcome of national health reform. Will there be any changes at all. This debate has frozen decision making for many in health care. If the health care reform actually happens in increasing the enrollment into health care insurance then the long term the aging population and these increased numbers should push demand for services and income higher. However, no one yet knows what will happen to reimbursement rates from Medicare. Already there has been some lowering of rates they pay in Radiology which has directly impacted that specialty. The question is will there be more rates cut that will affect all specialties including Anesthesia.

When it comes to drug rehab treatment centers, Vista Bay has an incredibly effective track record at achieving enduring results for individuals suffering from drug and alcohol addiction. The Vista Bay rehab program measures their success by the full recovery rate of the individuals they serve. There is something special about the high level of success that they are able to attain.
Firstly, Vista Bay drug rehab treatment centers provide a holistic alternative to the traditional treatment center philosophy. The result of the Vista Bay program has achieved a full recovery success rate of seventy percent, which is in comparison to success rates of traditional treatment centers that are as low as two percent.
Much of the difference that is found at Vista Bay is in their decision to be a drug-free facility. This is important as many other treatment centers offer a counter-intuitive method that promotes swapping one drug for another by providing prescription medication as part of the treatment. Vista Bay drug rehab starts with their highly successful hot sauna detoxification process. The process includes hot sauna treatments in combination with fluid intake and vitamin supplementation.
The Vista Bay detoxification process promotes the body’s natural ability to purge toxins from the body and is instrumental at providing greater clarity and lucidity of thought. Once an individual has gone through the detoxification process, they attend the Vista Bay life skills education courses, which provide essential elements to be used as a set of tools in order to ensure a more fulfilling life. In addition, the Vista Bay drug rehab program provides a comprehensive discharge plan for each individual in order to maximize their chance of success upon graduation.
The entire Vista Bay rehab experience is based on empowering the individual to permanently achieve a relapse free life. There is only a single fee for admittance to the Vista Bay drug rehab program. It not only includes a stay at the Vista Bay rehab treatment center that is for a duration as long as it takes to recover, but it also includes re-admittance at no additional fee for 30 days in the event that there is a relapse while following one’s approved discharge plan.
Vista Bay has been helping individuals attain a full recovery from drug and alcohol addiction for 42 years. Their success is founded on the unwavering dedication to the success of others. At a Vista Bay drug rehab treatment center, individuals attain the greatest chance for a full recovery from drug and alcohol addiction.
Vista Bay is a non-profit and non-traditional treatment center for drug and alcohol addiction. They help individuals overcome drug and alcohol addiction by providing an effective program and the time for each individual to become healthy again. The Vista Bay Drug Rehab program and successful track record make them an essential solution for permanent results for individuals, friends and families facing the serious problem of drug and alcohol addiction.
