The current job market looks for experienced applicants more than specific and overbearing degrees on the CV.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This development has created popularity for fellowships across the globe and specifically in India. Fellowship is important because you get to practice the theories you learned in school in actual life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-are-fellows-paid-in-india\">Are Fellows Paid in India?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Yes, they pay fellows in India. Their monetary compensation is equivalent to an employee in an entry-level position. <strong>Fellowship is \u201cLearn and Earn\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Depending on the organization, the pay differs and is not the same across India. Students in government establishments get to earn more than students in private organizations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-is-fellowship-different-from-scholarships\">Is Fellowship Different from Scholarships?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Yes, there is an enormous difference between fellowships and scholarships. Scholarships give you financial help to complete your education. Fellowship is an opportunity to learn and earn. Fellowship shows the financial assistance awarded to students willing to investigate a special subject after passing the prescribed exam.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-is-fellowship-different-from-internship\">Is Fellowship different from Internship?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Yes, an internship is for undergraduate students, whereas a fellowship is open to graduates and early and mid-career professionals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-is-a-fellowship-considered-employment\">Is a Fellowship Considered Employment?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Fellowships are not employment. That you won a fellowship program does not make you an employee of the firm, institution, or organization. But, if you play your cards right, you can be retained afterward. This largely depends on your hard work and output.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-which-fellowship-program-is-india-known-for\">Which Fellowship Program is India Known for?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Although there are over 100+ fellowship opportunities in India, India is most famous for medicine-related fellowships.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-how-long-does-a-fellowship-program-last\">How Long Does a Fellowship Program Last?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Most fellowship program lasts for one year.
