Is it fair?
What we have been watching is that many employment notices require three first classes, it means at least one in undergraduate level/ post graduate level. It is easily conceivable that it is very tough for those who passed in the class/division system. Those who have passed in the grading system, it is easier for them to get 3.00 in the scale of four than those who passed in class/division system. So, it is a clear case of discrimination. As the division/class system is on the verge of elimination, I would request all the employers to consider this particular aspect before issuing any notice for employment. It is gross injustice to us who have passed in the division/class system and couldn't get 1st class in graduation or master's level.
Earlier, I saw it required two first class results in all academic exams, but now we see that three first classes are required for many positions. It is my solemn request on behalf of those who have passed in the traditional division/class system to the employers to give us a chance to apply for jobs.
