Overnight Degrees - Be Cautious
posted in News and Magazine |Desperation for higher qualification among professionals to achieve a higher rung in the corporate ladder has lured some people/ agents/ consultants to spread their wings.
This is true that corporates at times, look for certain minimum qualifications, mainly when filling up some top positions are concerned. People are promoted inside the organization up to a certain level.
Key positions in most of the corporates demand some academic or technical degrees as mandatory criteria, mainly to enrich their profile, along with the other essential attributes of the candidate.
Here lies the problem as the people mostly wind up their academics at a much early age while taking up a job. At that point of time, they hardly realize the need of a higher qualification which dawns upon them only when they watch companies awarding the key positions to individual with academic prowess and it remains beyond their reach. By the time, one becomes aged, one losses his enthusiasm to go through the rigmarole of studying towards a degree. Here goes the scope for agents who want to arrange a degree for you and it is needless to mention that in most cases these become fraud or adaption to unethical ways.
The agents take a huge amount from you and then try to make a deal under the table with some university associates/ staff so that you get the desired degree without any effort. If anybody has selected the option like education or career while registering with the common email providers like MSN, Rediff, Yahoo, they will surely realize the authenticity of such a statement as they receive mails very frequently with titles like, “Get a Degree in 10 days”. They further strengthen their position by further ensuring the confidentiality and privacy of yours while acquiring that degree.
We want to caution you about such degrees. What we want to tell that you must try to turn the tide in your favor, but unethical way can cost you even more and may turn the tide against you for ever!
