Much Simpler & Faster Online Process (Updated February 2017)My experience was with KR puram RTO without using any broker or agent. Now that the process is centralized, I believe this procedure can be applied across all RTOs.Step I: Online Application (20 mins)The home page for license application is https://parivahan.gov.in/sarathiservice/sarathiHomePublic.do. This is a user friendly website and has all necessary links for the required steps as given below.1.LL Application:Clicking on “Apply online – New Learner’s license” should take you to New LL Stage Details. Select new driving learning license and fill the form in the next page. (If you need license for car & 2 wheeler, you need to select both LMV and MCWG in the “Class of vehicles”) Make sure all personal details match with the document proofs.Once the form is submitted, you will get an acknowledgement and receive a sms on your mobile with the application number. You can take a print out of the completed form (Captioned as Form 2).Paste your photograph and fill in any missing details including CMV Form 1 and sign where required. You need to scan or take a picture of filled-in CMV Form 1 (along with annexures, if applicable) for uploading later.Tip : If you are 40 years or older (and / or) require a commercial yellow board license, then you may need to undergo a medical test and submit a fitness certificate as a part of Form 1 above. (Depending upon your RTO, you can also get a medical certificate near RTO office for about Rs 50 to 100)2. Uploading documents:The next page will have options to upload the required documents. Online form dropdown menu in that page shall give you the list of eligible documents. You basically need to upload scanned copies of three types documents (in pdf or jpeg format and size less than 1 MB).(i) Age Proof – Common documents include any one of PAN Card, Passport, School Certificate or Birth Certificate(ii) Address Proof – Common documents include any one of Passport, Voter id card, Electricity Bill, BSNL/MTNL Bill, Rental agreement. If you are staying at a temporary address, please upload the rental agreement with your name on it and the latest electricity bill with the name of the owner (merged into a single pdf document). You won’t get an option to upload your permanent address proof and it is recommended that you carry it while you visit the RTO.(iii) Form 1 (self-declaration) – This is the scanned copy of the CMV Form 1 as mentioned above.Tip : You can get the entire list of documents or procedure by visiting the official link https://sarathi.nic.in:8443/nrportal/sarathi/HowTo/howtoLL.pdf.3.Uploading photo & signatureYou need to upload your latest passport size photo and signature. The tricky thing is both of these should be less than 20 kb each. Use websites like Resize Images online or Smallpdf.com - A Free Solution to all your PDF Problems to reduce the size and they should be good to go.4. Booking LL Slot:The next step is to book a slot to visit your chosen RO. As many mentioned here, chose weekdays if possible and preferably the earliest slot in the morning.5. Fee paymentThis is an option for online payment but this may not work depending upon the RTO chosen. If your RTO does not have this option, the website shall give you a message to visit the RTO to make the payment.This marks the end of your online application process. If you wish to view or modify the details of application or appointment time later, you can do so by selecting the required option in the home page https://parivahan.gov.in/sarathiservice/sarathiHomePublic.do and entering your application number and date of birthOnce you are satisfied with the application, you should take printouts of the acknowledgement form, appointment receipt and application form (as already done in Step 1)Step II: Preparation for the LL Test (20 mins)You have to prepare for an online test (at RTO) to test your knowledge on signs and driving rules. Preparation is a short but very important process and if not done properly, you may have to visit the RTO one or more time again. You can refer the following sectionsTypes of traffic signshttp://transport.karnataka.gov.in/index.php/information/details/mandatory_signshttp://transport.karnataka.gov.in/index.php/information/details/coutionary_signshttp://transport.karnataka.gov.in/index.php/information/details/informatory_signTraffic questions Q&A bank is available here http://licencetest.in/question-bank/category/en/Step III: Visit the RTO (20-30 mins)It is preferred that you visit the RTO on the allotted date and time, but generally you can visit any time after you complete your application process in Step 1 (RTO systems have improved so you need not wait for 4 hours as many have mentioned)Things to carry(i) Original Age Proof(ii) Original Address Proof(iii) Printout of Application form (Photo pasted and signed)(iv) Printouts of acknowledgement form and appointment receiptIn most cases documents (i) and (ii) are enough and is only to be shown. Since they have all the details online, your application number is enough to fetch them the details of your application. RTO officials won’t ask you for (iii) and (iv) above, but it is good to carry them just in case.At this stage, your photograph or copies of documents are not required to be taken either (no need for a brown paper folder). You can carry them if you want to be super prepared (But nobody would ask you)Fee PaymentYou need to visit the cash counter to pay the fee for your application first. (In case of KR Puram RTO, this is Counter 3 located on the left corner as soon you enter the ground floor).There should be a separate counter for LL fees payment. Mention your application number (from the sms message) or show the application form if you have taken the printout.Fee may vary depending upon the vehicle you have chosen. For ex. If you need both LMV and MCWG, then you may be asked to pay Rs 350 and they will give you a system generated receipt for this amount (Keep this safe)Document Scrutiny & LL TestTip: The RTO office is typically filled with many people applying through driving schools and also those who require commercial license (yellow board). Please don’t get baffled by seeing long queues or seek advice from them. If you are unsure, better to ask the RTO staff by mentioning you applied online. They will guide you.The next step is to visit the room for verifying your documents and the online test. (In KR puram RTO, this is counter 4). Normally the queues for online applications are shorter so you can directly ask the RTO staff regarding whom to approach.The verifying officer will check your online details and online uploaded documents along with your originals. (In very rare cases if he finds any discrepancy, he may ask you to edit information or upload documents. It would be good to carry a mobile phone with good internet connection and camera).Once documents are verified, the assessing officer will ask you to note down a pin number for your test and will allot you a computer to take the test. You can login to the test using the application number, DoB, password (you will receive this as a message on your mobile before the test) and pin number (as given above).The test will consist of 15 questions related to signs and road rules. Test duration is 15 mins (Each question will have one minute to answer with timer running). You have to score 10 marks to pass (Should be a cake walk if you have prepared from the links above).If you have failed, you may have to come back the next working day to repeat the test.If you have passed, then inform the officer and he will collect your receipt and confirm that your process is complete.After 2 days, you will receive a message that your learning license is approved. You can collect your learning license by either (i) Visiting the RTO in the evening time or (ii) Downloading it from the home page by logging in to your application page.Hope this helps. I will update the details of obtaining the driving license after one month.

The recruiters on these answers have given some great advice in terms of what they want to see at first glance.But something is missing.What is just as important is what they interpret at first glance as well.For example, your name should be nice and bold to be seen at “first glance”. That’s the easy part.But what if I told you that if you had an Asian name in Canada, Asian-named applicants have a 32.6% lower rate of selection for an interview compared to Anglo-named applicants, even when both groups had equivalent all-Canadian qualifications.Shocking statistic isn’t it?So let’s dig through those “first glance” parts of a résumé and look into not only what recruiters see, but what they think.Your NameWhile nearly all résumés I have seen had the name clear as day on the top (no problems there), little is said about whether your name itself works against you.Until our friends at Ryerson University and University of Toronto conducted a study that revealed some shocking statistics in Canada.Ethnic names can hurt your candidacy by up to 60%!Ouch!An acquaintance of mine looking for his first job in Canada in the alcohol industry - which he had extensive experience in back in his home country - could not get a single call for an interview.He suspected it could be his muslim name.So he tried an experiment.He changed it to Andrew Smith and applied to the same job with the same résumé he had submitted a couple of days ago.And he got a freaking call for the interview.Of course, he did not get the job because he eventually had to reveal his real name, and they dismissed him on grounds of dishonesty.But his experiment worked.So are Canadian hiring executives racists?At this point, many job seekers pull out the racist card.But it’s unconscious bias that’s at play here.I’m guilty of this too. When I was recruiting for call centre staff, I would note the university to pass judgment on the candidate’s communication skills (shame on me!)So what can you do about it? Change your freaking name?!?!Not easy for many people to do, although it’s common to find Chinese folks anglicizing their names.It’s really up to you. If you value you identity and would not sacrifice it for a job, I respect that.But if a hiring executive sees Vikramasuriya Srinivasaraghavan on the top of a résumé, you might be better off with Vik Srini in a résumé, and “explain” yourself after you have landed the job offer.Folks who hail from Africa may have opted to culturally keep their tribe’s name as their first name. If you have an Anglicized middle name, perhaps you would consider using that as a business name instead.Remember, recruiters are conscious of how they address you by name over the phone. The easier you make it for them, the higher the chances you receive that call.And when they are ready to hire you, they won’t care what your legal name is to give you the job.Your Contact DetailsRight under your name comes your telephone number.A lot of job seekers to Canada (for example) apply to jobs from abroad. And what do you think their contact number is?Yup, it starts with +91 or +63 or +234Reject!Hiring executives do not want to hire people from abroad, and your contact details are an immediate turn off!However, if you are inbound to your new country, you can consider getting a virtual number and stick it on your résumé.Email AddressHotmail? AOL?“Jeez how old are you?”Who would’ve thought that one could be dating themselves with their email address?Once again, our friend unconscious bias creeps in, and judgement is passed on your age based with an older domain name.If you have one of these domain names in your email address, consider getting a live, gmail or yahoo account, keeping it professional of course.Home AddressThis is a tricky one.What if you live abroad? You can get virtual number, but not a virtual address.This is where your cover letter comes in.On your résumé put in your city of choice, and on the cover letter, state that you are applying from abroad and you will be arriving on so-and-so date.Honesty - check!You might be thinking “this is deceptive, that I'm stating an address that I don’t currently live in.”That’s why you explain yourself in the telephone conversation. As long as you have a solid landing date at that destination that is in the very near future, they should consider your application.After all, it’s better to receive a call than to not receive it all.Most recruiters don’t read cover letters (I'm coming to that later) and if they think you were being deceptive, you can mention “I stated on my cover letter that I currently did not reside in Canada.”Then it’s shame on them for not reading.FormattingSo now that we got the top information out of the way, let’s consider the overall “look” of the résumé.At-a-glance, the document needs to look clean.Remember, there is a very good chance that your résumé is going to be first (and only) viewed on-screen, be it a computer monitor or a mobile device.And there is a big difference between viewing written text on screen versus paper.On screen, you need to see a lot of white space so that it’s easy on the eyes.Everything “on top of the fold” or on the first half of the first page is extremely important.Keep it clutter free so that the reader can easily absorb the amazing information about yourself in that area.Below is a picture of a résumé from one of my favourite books called The Motivated Résumé and LinkedIn Profiles by Brian E. Howard.This book is about résumé and LinkedIn advice from certified, award wining résumé writers.Notice how the top half “feels” open and easy to read.ExperienceThe most important section that makes or breaks the shortlist.In North America, experience trumps education for most coperate jobs, such as HR, IT, Sales and Marketing, Finance, Customer Service etc.There will exceptions based on your industry.This is why it’s critical that your experience must be on the first page.Once again, “at-a-glance” means it’s all about that first freakin’ page!There are 3 components to the experience section so let’s break it down.Gaps - Common knowledge states that gaps over 3 months starts to raise some red flags with recruiters.If you’ve been struggling with your job search for over three months, start to consider filling those gaps with volunteer experience - highly regarded in North American culture.The best place to volunteer is within your industry, specifically associations that you should be a member of.Google “Marketing Associations in Toronto” if you are looking for marketing roles in Toronto for example, and connect with the people from this association.You will easily find their names online.Let them know that you are interested in assisting with any upcoming work.Membership is not free, but this is how real networking is done.“20## - To Present” - once again, unconscious bias favours those who already have a job.Not much you can do about this if you are unemployed, but I just wanted to point it out.After all, it’s about “first glance.”It’s something to consider if you’re planning on leaving your current job before finding a new one.The companies you work(ed) for - Working for high profile companies certainly has it’s appeal.There is nothing you can do to change the past, but it’s certainly something to consider for the companies you are targeting for your future.If you have experience working for Microsoft, Oracle and HP, then you stand a good chance being placed with opportunities with SAP.Likewise if you worked for smaller organizations, it’s a good bet you have a better chance if you target start ups.EducationI know I said that education isn’t as important as experience. But it’s still important when you’re talking about “at-a-glance”.When a position is opened up, the hiring manager and recruiter sit down to create the wish list you know as the job description.The important stuff comes out first of course, in terms of skills and responsibilities and years of experience.Finally, the recruiter will ask “What about education level?”Manager: “Oh yea, I guess we need that. Ummmm, let’s say bachelors degree”.Didn’t sound very important did it?Nonetheless, it’s still a check box in the recruiter’s mind when they glance through your résumé.“The manager asked for a bachelor’s degree, so that’s what I’m going to look for.”Once again, the importance of education depends on the industry and maybe even the organization (I have read that Google highly values education)It also depends on the culture. In many parts of Asia (for example India), education is highly valued, which is why it’s common to find résumés from Indian candidates state their education right at the top.In North America, keep the education on the second page, and extremely brief - just the level of the degree, the major, and the university.Some résumés I have seen go into great detail elaborating on the education - it’s just a waste of space which could be better used for focusing on experience.Overall ContentThree important factors to consider for content:Keywords - There’s that stupid word again.You hear it time and time again, and you’re wondering if you’re nailing the right keywords in your résumé.Unfortunately, it’s here to stay, but you don’t have to break your head over it.Here are three tricks to capturing those keywords and help your recruiter see them at a glance.#1 Technology to the rescue - enter JobScan.Use it to weed out the keywords from your job description to make sure your tagging a good chunk of them. It offers 5 free scans a month.#2 Another option that is free, but less recommended is to use a free word cloud tool such as WordItOut or Wordle.Not as great as JobScan as it wasn’t design to look for job description keywords - that was JobScan was built for - but it is a free alternative that’s better than nothing.#3 Finally, a little trick that works well to help recruiters spot those keyword at a glance is to bold them in your résumé.A recruiter once told me that he appreciated that I did that.A skills or competence section is a great place to capture keywords in a bullet point format.Remember, the recruiter has those keywords resonating in his/her mind as s/he glances through your résumé. Make them easy to spot!Proof - The recruiter may not be a subject matter expert in your field, but they know enough to understand what will impress a hiring manager.And a résumé which just has a task list in the experience section will go into the reject pile.I use a personal formula for my clients that I’m happy to share with you.For each responsibility, I ask three questions:1 - How do you do this today?2 - How do you do it differently?3 - How can you prove it?Below is a screenshot of how this would look like for a IT Business Analyst Role. I copy pasted the top row labelled “Responsibility1” from a job description for an IT Business Analyst I found on Indeed.caWhat goes in the résumé is in the last row.Notice how the keywords are bolded that makes it easy for the recruiter to catch at first glance.Notice how the same language used by the recruiter in their job description is mirrored back to them in your résumé.Certainly helps with appealing to an unconscious “match” inside their heads at first glance.Also notice how the soft skills such as “Attention to detail” and “Organizational Skills” are embedded into the responsibility, providing context to your skills rather than just bullet pointing them.Grammar and Spelling - I’m not going to spend too much time on the importance of this because any job seeker knows it’s important.What I will share though is a nifty tool that can help anyone ensure their résumé is polished.It’s called Grammarly, and I used it everywhere.It does a super job of not only correcting spelling, but even suggesting alternate words to boost your writing skills.Job TitlesThe easiest transition to make is a parallel one.If you’re applying for a business analyst role, recruiters will scope your job title to see if you are/were a business analyst in your last role.Also, they will skim your job titles across your career progression, just to make sure that you have remained true to your cause and brand.If you’ve been hopping from one industry to another, that could cause a problem at first glance.Enter your cover letter - where you can explain your reason behind your moves.If you are, however, applying for a more junior role for whatever reason, you might be considered overqualified.That’s something you have to watch out for.Major Turn offs at first glanceRésumés longer than 2 page - The purpose of a résumé is to short list you for an interview - nothing more. For most corporate jobs, you don’t need more than 2 pages of clear, cleanly formatted information for a recruiter to make that call.A long résumé shows that you’re not focused on what’s being asked for in the job description, and your relying on the recruiter’s withering attention to find all the juicy details buried somewhere in your résumé.No good. So keep it short and to the point.Personal Details - While common practice in some parts of Asia, photographs, passport details, marital status, lengthy addresses, parent’s names (yes, I’ve actually seen this!), makes recruiters go “Ugh!”Word Clutter - White space is important, as mentioned before. Look at Christopher Jones’ résumé above - so easy on the tired eyes of a recruiter.Fancy Formatting - While it will greatly impress your friends and family (and maybe even the hiring manager), your primary résumé is that same old traditional boring document recruiters have come to know and love.Fancy résumés may appeal to the creative industry.But traditionalist industries like finance, IT, HR, engineering, law may still prefer the boring old text format.Not to mention, ATS technology so far does not parse graphical résumés.Objective Statement - The first piece of content the recruiter sees at the top of your résumé, and you’re stating what you want rather than what you can do for the position.Get rid of the objective statement right now - please!Replace it with a professional summary that highlights who you are and your biggest accomplishments and skills relevant to the job descriptionHow about a demo?Following the advice above will get you past the first 10 seconds under the recruiter’s scrutinizing eyes.*Phew*, that’s a lot of content for just 10 seconds.Now comes the real fun part - impressing them well beyond the first glance and dazzling them with the rest of your credentials.After all, your goal is to get called for the interview, not just have someone glance over your résumé.Make sure the rest of the experience of your résumé consistently provides proof and context to your soft skills as we have covered.If you’d like to download a template of a resumé with a how-to video, you can click the link below.Click here to download your resumé template

SCAM-1When you wish to travel by train in urgency but don’t own rail ticket then what will you do, simply you go visit railway website or approach some railway ticket agent.It may also possible that agent will be unable to provide you ticket with your need but here come the tricks or scam.Agent have many contacts with other agent or you can say they have strong network, out of 1–2 or more agent book ticket by entering some fake name and when any customer approaches them they offer the same ticket to them.Now you will think name is different but wait wait …They issue the Aadhar or other identity card to travelers with fake name written on card but having his/her picture.Agent charges hefty amount for the fake ticket and railway staff can’t verify the same.This is as usual business in India.2-Unintentional Error by manufacturer but intentional error by retailersMay be this unintentional error seems very tiny scam but happen with large number of public day to day.Now see following pics of Candy. One packet is full of air (pic 2) only and other(pic 1) has candy.Now come to price of Jelly candy (Alpenliebe) , one candy selling price is Rs. 1.Imagine how company earning a lot by doing unethical businesse practice.I am still waiting for this post to reach at Alpenliebe (Perfetti Van Melle) office so that I can show them the evidence which I have for long time.Note: Plz upvote as much as possible so that we and our coming generations can live in corruption free country.SCAM-3When a fresher candidate or unemployed candidate visit any company to get a decent job then following conversation happen between interviewers and interviewee.Interviewer: Tell me about yourself.Candidate : My name is blah blah blah…..Then bunch of questions……Final round….Interviewer: What will be expectation for salary.Candidate: Sir, Rs. 20K per month or what company norms permit For this post.Interviewer: Okay, we can give you maximum Rs. 15k per month.…..Here comes the game plan of HR.Interviewer: Ok done, tomorrow we will release your offer letter.Now candidate joined immediately because he was jobless but HR doesn’t issue him offer letter by making many excuses.After one month candidate get his salary and he shocked to see his credited salary.He got only Rs. 12.5 K in his account ie in hand salary.Candidate: Sir, my salary was Rs. 15K then why I got this amount.Interviewer: That was your gross salary and this is your inhand salary.Suggestion: Only join any company after getting offer letter and salary breakup.Victim shocked accuse rockedSCAM-4This is in addition to scam 3 in which a candidate appears for multiple round of interviews.Here come the last round ie salary negotiations.After convincing interviewee for some amount say Rs. 15K gross salary.Interviewer: You have to work offrole for next six month, are you ready?Candidate: yesHere come the game plan.After working one month he got salary of Rs.12.5 as inhand. He was okay with it but he did not know the behind scene.Actually HR was deducted his PF & ESI and other head from his salary.Now you think if he is not on company pay role then he should not have UAN & ESI account as well. This is the truth as well , he did not have any such account.Now where all that deductions went.SCAM-5(A) In my locality there are many wine shop and many of them have their own refreshments center to drink wine with cold drink, water and some snacks.But when we saw the price charged by them for cold drink and stuff we shocked.They charged 3–4 times than MRP what was written on bottles and packet of items.Even no one bother because no one want to take away the wine and drink at home.(B) In urgency I usually go to hometown by bus because we can easily get the bus tickets.When bus stop at designated Dhaba or refreshments center , I hesitate to buy anything because of 3–4 fold of MRP charged by them .Even commuters buy the product of monopoly.SCAM-6When we install any mobile app through App Store , Google play store or any means during installation it asks “Do you want to allow this app to access your internal storage” then generally we clicked on yes/allow button.Here come the scam.If you have some intimating videos or pics they can download it and thereafter easily blackmail you or destroy your reputation in society or worldwide.Even after accessing all your contacts they sell it to other marketing companies for hefty amount.Now choice is yours.Example- TrueCallerWhatsapp-Whatsapp store our contacts on their server and by doing so they manage large database.Happy InstallationNote: We spend our hours and sometimes even a day to express our opinions to help other. Kindly upvote my post as your level best so that it can reach to maximum people and they can prevent themselves from such heinous fraud.Edit-1 : After getting so many comments for point 2 ,I changed it unintentional error which was written scam earlier. Thank for valuable suggestions.Edit-2: Thanks for the overwhelming response.
