I have compeletd my btech in 2022 in mechanical from vit. Now working as s software developer in PwC from past two years. What are the differenr opportunities for me in govt sector. I had also given gate once before and had got mtech in thermal in iit goa but not joined the course.

Ans: First you decide whether you want to be in the core field of Mechanical Engineering or Software. If it is software then don't try for Govt. job, because the best opportunity of software lies in private only. If you want to join GOVT. sector then try for different jobs and in GATE if your rank becomes too good directly you will get interview in PSUs. So first clear your mind. Follow me here and join me in LINKEDIN for having time to time counselling. YOU WILL WIN. Just take proper decision. DECISION DECIDES DESTINY- NOT ONLY HARDWORK. Follow me here and join me in LINKEDIN for having time to time counselling. BEST OF LUCK.GOD BLESS YOU. Professor..........................:)

Hi, Sir I am 23 years old. I belong from lower middle class family. I have done Diploma in Civil Engineering then I did B.Tech in Civil. But I am not interested in Civil due to family pressure,. I did this. After B. Tech I joined a coaching centre where I have learnt coding and aptitude. But after coming AI, IT market has down. Also companies are not hiring freshers. So, I am afraid that if Computer background students are not getting job then how will I survive in long term. Because of that I am doing govt job preparation. I am now confused that which direction would be suitable for me in the long term?

Ans: Hi
After completing Civil Engg, why you start computer coding is unable to understand. Those who aim for a job, start the preparation from 1st year itself. But you are too late. With the preparation of Govt Job Examinations, it would be better for you to join any company or firm which employs civil engineers for their projects. Your earning and learning will go simultaneously.
Don't sit at home only for the preparation of Govt job.
Discard the idea of learning coding etc related to computers. Rather learn some readymade software use from a civil engineering point of view. Some of them are Auto-CAD, Prima-Vera, STADD-pro, 3D-Max and many more.

You can register your name with Govt PWD Dept to work as a contractor also,

If you are dissatisfied with the reply, please ask again without hesitation.
If satisfied, please like and follow me.

Career

Hello myself Gourav, I have completed my graduation in the year 2016 and mtech 2019, I have been preparing for govt job since 2016 but haven't got any. What should i do now, i am really confused.

Ans: Hi Gaurav,

I understand your feelings,emotions and disappointment.
It's not you alone but so many youth falling for the enticement of cushy govt. job's which actually have so many applicants, too few opportunities. Finally left in the middle of no where!

Every year more graduates are churned out than Bhelpuris ...so now what , look into your degree speciality, what's your ability and aptitude.

The advice is to get a good not more than 2 page resume and send your resume to potential job opportunities that appeal to you!

Career

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.

Career

Hello sir,I am a pcb student and i am preparing for neet and this is my second drop but i don't think i can clear neet and get mbbs seat bcz i am not a student who study all the time i just can't.I am so confused between bsc nursing or bams what should i choose which have better salary package bcs i am the eldest daughter of my family plz answer me

Ans: Hello Stuti
both career have their perks. After B.Sc nursing, you can go abroad where it is very high demand and rewarding. In Europe you can earn above 2L after experience of 1-2 years in India.
After BAMS you will be a doctor & can practice allopathy after a bridge course. Also, you can work as a resident doctor in hospitals.

If you have a budget of around 20-25L for the complete course I can help you with admissions for MBBS abroad. Since NEXT exam has become compulsory for Indian as well as foreign graduates. It is also a great option.

In case of any queries & professional help, you can DM me through insta handle CAREERSTREETS I will help you with the ideal solutions.

WHAT IS THE BEST FUND AT PRESENT FOR SIP IN EQUITY FOR NEXT 7YEAR TENURE?

Ans: Hello;

In my view, flexicap type mutual fund is the best fund to invest for a 7 yr+ horizon.

This may change based on risk appetite and financial profile apart investment horizon.

Any fund from the top quartile that has proven its ability to provide better risk adjusted returns over long-term may be apt.

Happy Investing;

I showed on your websites some gurus are saying that you will be eligible for JEE advanced if you will repeat 10th,11th and 12th again with new enrollment That's why I am in confusion

Ans: Hi,
as per jee main brochure, there is no age limit for candidates applying for the Joint Entrance Exam (JEE Main). However, Candidates are required to pass the class 12 or equivalent exam in 2023, 2024 or 2025.

Since everything is getting digitalized your details will be stored online in ABC, then I feel it may create a problem.

Dear Mr Milind, I am a 43 year old single guy with no kids. I am looking to retire within next 2 to 3 years. I own a home in a metro city and i do not have any outstanding loans. My current retirement portfolio include 2 crore Mutual Funds (75% Equity and 25% Debt). I have 50 Lakhs in Pf and Gratuity. I also have a plot worth 30 Lakhs which i am not considering for retirement fund. I will have a total retirement portfolio of 3 Cr in next 2 years. My monthly expenses is 50k. Am i in comfortable financial position to retire by 2027? Please Advise

Ans: Hello;

After you accumulate a corpus of 3 Cr, you may 20/10 L in a mix of liquid funds and flexi FDs as your emergency fund.

If you invest the balance 2.8/2.9 Cr in a equity savings type mutual fund with low to moderate risk rating and do an SWP at 3%, you may expect a post tax monthly income of 60 K+.

This will grow with inflation as the fund provides returns and thus provide inflation indexed income.

Consider investing in NPS regularly every month the proceeds of which may be used to boost your retirement income at 60.

Do take good health care insurance.

Best wishes;

I need to accumulate 7 to 8 lakhs in next 1 year I am getting 9.4 lpa can you suggest the investment options

Ans: Hello;

It is better to save ~ 50% of your income towards this goal and get balance amount through loan rather then investing in market linked instruments, returns from which may be quite volatile in the short term.

Is it ok to have a girlfriend while continuing marriage after the age of 60 yrs

Ans: Dear Raj,
Do you have an open marriage? Is your wife aware of your wishes and supports them? If that's the case, you have your own arrangement and I don't see how what you do is anyone else's business. But if that's not the case and you are planning on doing all of this behind your partner's back, and you are asking for some kind of reassurance from me that it is okay to cheat, I can't give you any.
Hope this helps.
