Academics vs Experience: which one has more importance for job seekers. As all of you know, these are two of the most desired aspects considered for a job. But what is more important out of these two? Say, for a post of assistant librarian in a university, a person has just the eligibility (Only net qualified) but very good experience. Another person has good academic qualification (M. Phil /Ph D, a diploma or degree in computers, different training courses, research publications etc.) but no experience. Who will have a better chance.

dear manoj experience  is something which is acquired  but qualification/ s on paper  most often  may not  work outinrea llifesituation s    hence  experince is always  excellent

Dear Manoj Kumar, I think it purely depends on the selection committee what they want. But I think experience holders will get preference over the qualification.

Thanks mr. Prahalad and mr. Badan for your replies. I think the scenario may reverse for a post of Assistant Professor in a teaching department. Academics might hold edge over experience.

Ya, your view looks true for Assistant Professor.

Please note Academics is for the development of mind of an individual but actual knowledge is gained by experience because we are reading anything theoreticaly but varyfying it practicaly in labs etc. So my view is academics is just to shortlist the candidates but preference should be given to experienced candidate.

I have seen in IIT System companies recruit the candidates in those sector which does not belongs their field of study but since they are intelligent so they recruit them and gives training..

I AGREE WITH U SIR

Thanks for the reply Mr. Vinod. Although, experience is critical, but academics also have some role for professional competance. Afterall, it is the theory acqired through academics that is applied in practical.
