Guys , whoever is interviewing and planning to join , do ask project availablity on priority basis before you take decision. On Java front looks like there is some project issue due to recent slowdown in market. My offer was not revised even after agreement with recruiter because of this.

Asking questions that help them identify their own goals, and not just what would be next for their role. Then we build a plan from there. I don’t have that often, but I enjoy helping employees who are looking for some advice or just exploring what could be next for them.
Its not something I've had much experience doing. I don't want to lead them to the wrong thing. It's an Important job to help and a privilege to be asked.
Conversation Starter
Ask questions about their dreams and their goals and why they think that specific career and what interested them etc. Talking it out and giving some opinions can be very helpful.
That sounds good. Talking about it out loud can make it easier to get their head around what they really want to do.
I always start by asking what they enjoy most in their current role. Then I help map their skills to future roles. Tools like career pathing templates and simple strengths assessments work well. Listening, more than advising, is often the game changer.
