It’s frustrating to excel academically and participate actively yet struggle to find a job. Sometimes, factors like networking, experience, market demand, or soft skills play a bigger role than just academics alone.

The balancing act is extremely hard to put up with throughout you degree course. By the time you are done, you don’t know how to keep up with other aspects that have hit the trends. Soft skills need updating, internships on resume, more certifications to prove you are keeping up etc.

Reservation, intense competition, poor resume and lack of hands on experience may be some reasons

No offense, but while bookish knowledge may help us excel in school and university, real-life fieldwork is a whole different ballgame. Success as a doctor isn’t determined by marks alone—it’s shaped by multiple factors: how you present yourself, your body language, your communication skills, the words you choose in different situations, and most importantly, how well you bridge the gap between textbook knowledge and patient care.
Even if you know a couple of topics less than the class topper, strong pillars like confidence, empathy, clinical reasoning, and interpersonal skills can make you a far more effective doctor. After all, medicine is not just about what you know—it’s about how you apply it

Apart from competition, soft skills are also important which the students are unable to develop during their academic era…

Because the system isn’t built to reward sincerity—it’s built to reward connections, timing, and sometimes just plain luck.
You can give your 100%, be top of your class, do every event, win medals—but when you step out, nobody cares about your certificates if there’s no seat, no vacancy, or if you don’t know someone on the inside.
In medicine especially, the pipeline is broken. Too many MBBS grads, not enough PG seats, contractual jobs with peanuts for salary, and a system that tells you, “You chose this life.”
It’s not about merit anymore. It’s about survival.
And yeah it’s unfair. But you’re not alone in feeling this.
We need to stop glorifying overachievement and start demanding a system that actually supports the people who care.

Main issues are probably lesser opportunities due to unemployment but being inactive in other areas and excelling in academics put you at disadvantage. Your skills to effectively communicate, manage a stressful event, do teamwork all matters while joining a job which you might be lacking.
High academic achievement doesn’t guarantee job success due to factors like intense competition, skill mismatch, and lack of relevant experience. Networking, skill development, and practical experience through internships can enhance job prospects. Additionally, personal branding and career counseling can help. The job market is dynamic, and adaptability is key. Focusing on industry-specific skills can improve employability.
Sometimes, being a topper creates high expectations, but the job market often values connections, adaptability, and timing more than just grades. It’s an unfair reality many face.
Toppers will be mainly focused on academics and they will selectively choose job opportunities.
All interviewers are looking for well good, completely filled CV with experiences.
Mostly everyone is asking for experience certificate. But they want to make themselves understood that once job given will be get experienced, they also will have different potential than the person with so many years experience.
