Hi I am 24 yrs old and I am working as a Software Engineer in a MNC but with a lower salary package and it's almost 1 year but I have not worked on any project and not got any hands-on experience yet . I want to pursue my career in Computer science and Technology domain . Recently I explored some government job posts related to Computer Science like IT officer in public sector banks etc. I don't want to puruse master's like M.techbecause I don't want to go in teaching field. What would be a better option for me 1. To SWITCH my company and side-by-side prepare for govt IT related posts ? and if yes then what other jobs like IT officer can I explore? 2. Or can I go for MBA in computer science for better Salary package in private sector?? 3. Which sector do you thing will grow more in future private IT sector or Govt. related IT jobs??

Ans: You have different options
1. Do short term courses along with your current job which is relevant to industry requirement and look for jobs and projects in that area.
2. Do MBA in IT. Prepare for MBA entrance along with your job.
3. Write Govt exams to get into a government job related to IT.
The syllabus for MBA entrance and Govt jobs is similar so you can do both.

I talked with my family regarding MBA. So we don't have enough savings to go for MBA now. I want to pursue my career only in IT domain so should I prepare for govt. Jobs related to IT and side by side do courses to upskill myself?? Currently I am working as a db developer in PostgreSQL domain. So what industry oriented courses can I prefer for now ?? I am plannning to do AI&ML ??
Ans: If you are interested in AI and ML then can do those courses.
Upskilling yourself and preparing for govt exams looks like a good option.
