Let’s cut the fluff—landing your dream job isn’t about 11:11 wishes, or “just trusting the process.” It’s about getting real, getting ready, and going relentless. Here's your 5-step game plan:

1. Get Real With Yourself

What do you actually want? Not what your college told you. Not what looks cool on LinkedIn. Define the role, vibe, pay, growth—you can’t chase something you haven’t described.

2. Make a Hitlist

Pick your Top x dream companies. The ones that excite you, not just pay you. Research them till you can casually drop their founder’s name into convo. This isn't stalking. It’s strategy.

3. Fix Your Digital Presence (Online)

Update your CV. Polish LinkedIn like it’s Tinder for your career. Highlight the good stuff, trim the cringe. Take a course if needed—but don’t wait to feel “100% ready.” No one ever is.

4. Apply Like You Mean It

No blind mass applying. Custom-tailor that CV. Use referrals. Apply smartly via LinkedIn, company pages, and referrals.

5. Interview Like It’s a First Date

Don’t just prep generic answers. Know why you want them and why they should want you. Back every answer with a “because”—and mean it.

✨Bonus Truth Bomb:

Rejections don’t mean you’re not worthy. They just mean that wasn’t your door. Keep knocking—with better shoes each time.

Before we share how we define high paying jobs on Aplus, let's just share what Aplushub is all about:

Aplushub (A+ hub) is a definitive platform for A+ jobs and career resources. Our aim is to provide job seekers an unlimited access to high quality jobs from all around the world at one place, and arm them with top notch resources - insights, statistics, analysis, and discussions - that help them not only crack their dream jobs but also grow continuously, at a price less than that of a cup of coffee. 

Now, high paying jobs is an important section on Aplus, where we have segregated jobs that can pay at least INR 50L in compensation. A job seeker can view all high paying jobs posted on Aplus for free, or if they are interested in a particular domain - say Software Engineering, Marketing or Finance - they can click on respective sections under the high paying jobs section. 

Job Seekers may not get any results or see very few results for some of the domain selections. That is because no or few jobs with an INR 50L+ budget has been posted in the domain, and we do not want to clutter the section with other jobs that do match the criteria we have set out for a high paying job in India. So, Job Seekers can watch the space or add their email ids and/or Whatsapp nos to be informed if a high paying job within a particular domain and in a particular location is posted. 

The idea of creating a separate section for high paying jobs in India is to allow the most skilled Job Seekers match with jobs that pay some of the highest salaries in the country. 

We are always eager to hear what we could do better to make your job search a breeze. Feel free to use the feedback form on the right side of the home screen to share your views once you have logged in.

A report by CRISIL on the declining growth rate of Education Loan Assets under Management (AUM) of NBFCs was recently published, and quoted by multiple media houses. The report gives interesting statistics with respect to the scale and geographical split of these loans. 

Trend in education loan AUM of NBFCs: [1]

Trend in geographical split of AUM: [1]

NBFCs’ Education Loan Gross NPA (%): [1]

One commentary read:

"Gross NPAs stood low at 0.1% as on March 31, 2025. And even after adjusting for the moratorium, gross NPAs were well under control at ~0.7%. However, high growth in the past few years and estimated ~15% of the portfolio coming out of contractual moratorium this fiscal pose some asset quality risks."

A follow up commentary read: 
"Still, Crisil cautioned that around 85% of the current education loan book remains under contractual principal moratorium, and nearly 15% is expected to exit this shield in FY26, posing risks to asset quality."
