HUMAN RESOURCE WORD OF THE
WEEK"FOURSIS WEEKLY JOB ANALYSIS".
Downshifting refers to social behaviors whereby individuals reduce the re-
sponsibility and complexity in their lives in order to achieve a better quality of
existence. In a workplace context, downshifting attempts to find a more ap-
propriate and sustainable work-life balance, often in order to improve family
relationships, reduce stress and generally reduce the level of intrusion of the
working life into the family life.
There are environmental benefits to downshifting as well, in that downshifting
typically results in lower salaries and therefore less purchasing power. Those
who downshift may also develop more self-reflective attitudes that help them
mitigate their effect on the environment and reduce their use of resources.
Many who downshift their careers may also stop commuting in order to work
locally, which has two clear benefits: it reduces the environmental impact of
their commute and helps contribute to the local economy.

IELTS : GATEWAY FOR
FOREIGN STUDY, WORK
PERMIT AND IMMIGARATION
To study or Work and immigrate at Abroad is the dream for so many Indian as-
pirants. The standard of living, perks and work culture in developed foreign
countries such as USA, CANADA, UK, AUSTRALIA always attract the skilled
workforce of India.
As the medium of communication is English in all the above countries, it’s essen-
tial for any individual to have thorough command in English. Not only that such
countries demand that one must have competent English and must have authentic
proof of it. In such scenario IELTS certificate has utmost importance to get visa
of such countries.
Advantages of IELTS
IELTS (International English Language Testing System) is popular world-
wide with speakers of English as a second language as proof of their profi-
ciency. IELTS is jointly owned and managed by the British Council, Cam-
bridge English Language Assessment and IDP Education Australia. If you
plan to enroll at a university or college, apply to business organizations, or
register for a visa from government agencies in countries such as the United
Kingdom, Australia, New Zealand, or Canada, the IELTS test can help you
reach your education, career or life goals.
Whether you are applying for study, work or a
visa, the IELTS examination is almost the same
(slightly differ in General and Academic mod-
ule) in terms of content, examiners, format,
level of difficulty and scoring. If your test re-
sults are not satisfactory, there is no limit on
when and how often you can retake it, but it is
advisable to take some time and study more
before your next attempt. In most countries, test
centre's offer preparatory courses and language
classes, but you can also find online learning
resources that will help you refresh your
knowledge and explain how best to prepare for
the exam.
The Academic IELTS is required for university
or college admission, while the General Train-
ing IELTS is intended for career and immigra-
tion purposes. The IELTS Life Skills is a new
UK government-approved Secure English Lan-
guage Test (SELT) to support your UK Visas
and Immigration (UKVI) application.
IELTS for study
If you are interested in studying abroad, re-
member that many universities worldwide and
all universities and colleges in the UK accept
IELTS test results. Tier 4 student visa appli-
cants can apply to universities in the UK with
an IELTS result from any of the 1,000 IELTS
test locations worldwide, unless the institution
has additional requirements. Some universities
act as local agents on behalf of the British
Council, ensuring the organization and delivery
of the IELTS examinations.
If you are considering an undergraduate or
postgraduate degree programme, you should
take the Academic IELTS test. The General
Training IELTS test is sufficient for pro-
grammes which do not award a degree. Find
your chosen college or university and check the
version of IELTS that is right for you.

As a future international student, you will need to demonstrate that you are qualified and
can successfully complete a degree programme taught in English. You will therefore need
higher IELTS scores to enroll in advanced degree programmes such as Masters or PhDs
are.
IELTS for work
Providing proof of your language proficiency is an important step in obtaining a visa so that
you can work abroad. Language skills are key to career success, and are considered a valua-
ble asset in addition to all the other requirements of any job. If you are a work visa appli-
cant, you must achieve either ‘competent’ English or ‘vocational’ English language skills,
meaning you will have to be prepared for more than basic conversational English.
In the UK, applicants must score at least 6.5 on each of the four components of the test
(Reading, Speaking, Listening and Writing).
For working in Australia, a test score of 5 is considered to be ’vocational English’ lev-
el. A band score of 6 means that the applicant is a ’competent English’ speaker.
In New Zealand, work permit applicants must gain an overall band score of 4 or higher
in the IELTS General or Academic module. They may also provide additional evi-
dence of their English language abilities, such as information about countries they
have lived in, their current country of residence or their family’s knowledge of
English.
In Canada, applicants should check directly with the organization they want to apply to
for the IELTS score requirements. Employers and educational institutions general-
ly set their own language requirements.
In all these countries, you should take in consideration that minimum score requirements
vary depending on your chosen occupation. For some professions, applicants must achieve
a minimum of 6 in each of the testing modules, whereas for teachers, for example, a mini-
mum score of 7 is required.
IELTS for immigration
Government agencies use the IELTS exam as part their applications processes to obtain
citizenship or the right to permanent residence. They consider language proficiency to be
strongly related to people’s ability to integrate into the community and the workplace. The
IELTS exam is accepted by immigration authorities and continues to play an important role
in using language assessment as a mean to control migration numbers.
A new UK-government-approved Secure Eng-
lish Language Test (SELT) has been introduced
as part of the visa application process. The test
is known as IELTS Life Skills or 'IELTS for
UKVI'. This means that IELTS can be used
to prove your English language abilities in sup-
port of a UK Visa and Immigration (UKVI)
application. The IELTS Life Skills test requires
you to demonstrate your speaking and listening
skills only at level A1 or B1 of the Common
European Framework of Reference (CEFR). At
the end of the exam, you will receive a pass/fail
result rather than band scores.
Score examples
Immigration to New Zealand requires an
IELTS overall score of 6.5 in either
the General Training or Academic
IELTS modules. This is mandatory for
a visa application.
Canada accepts IELTS, but you will also
have to achieve the Canadian Lan-
guage Benchmarks standard.
Australia recognizes both Vocational
and Competent English by the Depart-
ment of Immigration and Citizenship.
Check with government agencies or institutions
in these countries for specific language require-
ments and scores regarding immigration.

Recent Recruitment Trend: Growing
Trend of Remote Workforce
About 80- 90% of the workforce now a day work remotely. No
wonder telecommuting has increased by 118% in the recent years.
Moreover; employees who telecommute are believed to re-
port higher morale, lower absenteeism and greater willingness to
work overtime. It’s good for the environment, as well as from the
cost perspective too.
Remote workers demonstrate greater productivity, while saving em-
ployers on office space. However, many executives remain uncom-
fortable with the idea, and not all jobs or industries are comfortable
for telecommuting. But the demand isn’t likely to go away. If talent
acquisition is key to your company’s growth strategy, offering a
remote work option, could be a smart move.
