I’m not sure if India reflects North America… it is quite hierarchical, you don’t get fired, lots of holidays, etc. One thing I like here is flexi-timing. At all the places I worked, you could take 30 minute lunch or work 30 minutes more every day and ‘save’ your hours to take a day off or leave early.

@Lizz — France value education a lot too. People spend a lot of time studying theories…

@Sidney — I wish!

@Khengsiong — You are right, aptitude is also a factor. But from my own experience, relevant experience was a key factor, as well as experience in Canada.

@Shantanu — Does it? China are France share more similar value, I noticed. I don’t know India at all.

Interesting contrasts with Europe. But Indian now most reflects North America in workplace values. .-= Shantanu´s last blog ..Dum Pukht in Sonar Kolkata =-.

Hmm... I am a bit surprised that Canadian employers value work experience. I think in the US aptitude is given more weight. Here in Malaysia, the employers value work experience, plus young age. Now that's the irony. .-= Khengsiong´s last blog ..廣州無美女 =-.

Wow! That was very interesting. Manila is definitely a culture that values Educational background a lot, and you can get hired in your field with 0 experience in it. Lol! Still, I think it may be easier to switch career tracks in Canada… sounds like you’re really learning the ins and outs!
