I completed by B.E in civil engineering two years back and from then on i have been trying to get a govt. Job but haven't got it. I don't understand what to do now. Please guide me

Ans: Lack of thorough Research about the targeted Govt. Jobs is one of the reasons for most of the Govt. Job Seekers.

As you have done Civil Engineering, try to get an Entry-Level Civil Job, gain experience & if possible, keep upgrading your skills technical & managerial skills in Civil itself. Needs a lot of patience & efforts to get settled.

Or the alternative solution is, continue preparing for Govt. Jobs, but as I mentioned above, thorough Research / a 'Feasibility Study' on targeted Govt. Jobs is more important before start preparing for Govt. Jobs. Doing any (suitable) part-time job in this case will also help you financially & non-financially.

All the BEST for Your Bright Future.

Sir kindly suggest me the to choose option in scaler school of technology ,chitkara university, graphic era and newton school of technology Kindly arrange in high to low prefrence
Ans: Sunil, Scaler School of Technology, launched in 2023, offers a four-year B.Sc+M.Sc in CS & AI designed by industry leaders, featuring mandatory one-year paid internships and polished AC classrooms with an innovation lab, charging a total fee of ?16.25 Lakh; however, it is not recognized by UGC/AICTE and relies on Scaler Academy’s placement record of 1,300 alumni at an average package of ?20 LPA. Chitkara University (estd 2010) is UGC/AICTE-approved, NAAC A+ and ranked #94 in NIRF 2024, with a 93.8% B.Tech placement rate, a median package of ?9.5 LPA, and top recruiters including Infosys, Amazon, and Deloitte. Graphic Era University (estd 1996) holds NAAC A+ accreditation, engages 250+ recruiters yearly, records a highest package of ?54 LPA and a median of ?6.42 LPA for B.Tech, and provides state-of-the-art labs with PhD faculty. Newton School of Technology (estd 2023) partners with 2,000+ companies, achieves a 98% placement rate with average packages of ?12 LPA and early internship exposure, but lacks formal accreditation and is building its campus ecosystem.

Recommendation: For a fully recognized engineering degree with sustained placement outcomes and strong accreditation, recommendation is Chitkara University. Next in preference is Graphic Era University, offering extensive recruiter engagement and impressive top packages within an established university setting. Newton School of Technology is third, delivering intensive placement support and early paid internships but lacks formal UGC/AICTE accreditation. Scaler School of Technology ranks lowest due to its non-accredited B.Sc+M.Sc model, high fees, and reliance on parent-company placement data. All the BEST for the Admission & a Prosperous Future!
