Mumbai: Careers360, the monthly educational magazine published by Pathfinder Publishing, was launched by APJ Abdul Kalam, former President of India, recently.

Maheshwer Peri, publisher of Outlook, has a 90 per cent stake in Pathfinder Publishing, while the remaining stake is held by Rajesh Jain, founder of Netcore Solutions.

Careers360 is targeted at SEC A and B students and professionals in the age group of 17-35 years, who want to hone their skills or venture into entrepreneurship.

"After completing their education, 99 per cent people are on the streets because they don't have a Plan B. They rely on guidance given by relatives, friends or neighbours. There are many good institutes around, but they don't know about them. Careers360 is all about providing such information." says Peri.

The first issue of the magazine has a print run of about 75,000 copies. While about 50,000 copies are available at more than 5,000 outlets across the country and about 10,000 copies are being sent complimentary to colleges.
