Amid the uncertainty, students are being advised to grab what ever comes their way. Lubna Kadri, MD of the Indian Aviation Academy said, \u00e2\u20ac\u0153We realise this is a passing phase. However, we are advising students not to lose any opportunity by being choosy.\u00e2\u20ac\u009d But she was sure the industry would bounce back soon. \u00e2\u20ac\u0153By May next year, there are going to be job openings,\u00e2\u20ac\u009d she said.<br \/>At this point of time, Kingfisher officials are staying tight-lipped. A human resources officer said, \u00e2\u20ac\u0153Recruitment has been frozen and I cannot say when they will resume.\u00e2\u20ac\u009d<br \/>Some Kingfisher employees believe that what is happening at Jet Airways will have an effect on their airline too. \u00e2\u20ac\u0153The situation is quite bad here.
