Mangaluru, Jul 3: "Your success in your career will be in direct proportion to what you do after you have done what you are expected to do. There are several career choices with vast opportunities but in the past there were only two sectors - agriculture and manufacture. Career must be attractive - it is not just for earning, it should be for life. Don’t take shortcuts, instead pursue your career, lead it with determination, hard work, dedication and purpose, which will make you successful," said A B Ibrahim, deputy commissioner of Dakshina Kannada district.
He was speaking at a career guidance programme organised by Vikas Education Trust held at Besant Women's College auditorium here on Sunday July 3.
