My son completed his B.Tech in mechanical engineering in 2013. But due to his some then health problem, he couldn't bag up a job. Slowly he has lost his wish for job hunting. He is now 32 years old( DOB- 09/02/1992). I'm also a helpless father and have retired from railway service in December 2023. I will remain grateful if some suggestions be given regarding my son. Thank you.

Ans: Dear Mohammed,
I can understand that you are looking for job opportunities for your son who has completed his B.E. in Civil Engineering. There are many career options available for civil engineering graduates. Some of the popular career options include:

They examine data from previous land records to verify the current on-site surveys and present their findings to the designated authorities. The national average salary for this position is ?14,828 per month.
CAD Technician: Computer-aided design (CAD) technicians develop electronic design plans for buildings and machinery using CAD software. They cooperate with building architects and professional designers to convert blueprints and technical drawings into 2D and 3D computer models. The national average salary for this position is ?15,910 per month.
Structural Engineer: Structural engineers design and build buildings, bridges, and other commercial and private structures. They also measure loads and presses to ensure that the buildings’ formation and structure are secure and choose durable materials. The national average salary for this position is ?21,641 per month.
Urban Planner: Urban planners coordinate with public officials, developers and community members to plan land development and usage activities and initiatives. The national average salary for this position is ?21,665 per month.
These are just a few examples of the many career paths available to civil engineering graduates. Your son can also consider working in the government sector, where there are many job opportunities for civil engineers. Some of the government organizations that offer jobs for civil engineers include Municipal Corporations, Jal Boards, Delhi Development Authority, New Delhi Municipal Corporation, Metro Rail, National Highway Authority of India, Indian Oil Corporation, Delhi State Industrial Development Corporation, Public Works Department, Central Public Works Department, Border Roads Organization, Military Engineering Services, Airport Authority of India, Indian Air Force, Railways, Irrigation & Flood control department, Public Health Engineering department, National Hydro-electric Power Corporation, National Thermal Power Corporation, Oil and Natural Gas Corporation Limited, Defense Research and Development Organization, RITES, DRDO, Pollution Control Boards, Building and Construction department of organizations and many more.

Ans: We have to come to terms with the reality that the job market is slow right now. This means the efforts to find a jobs even for an IIT-ian will need more effort. Engineering program prepares graduates to work hard and your son's search should continue without wasting a minute. Also encourage him to keep enhancing his knowledge base. Let him network with seniors from previous batches and seek their assistance guidance in finding suitable internship and job opportunities,

Ans: Your son is a brilliant student. He has already achieved enough degrees for getting job. He had already given many job interviews. At which stage of the interview was he eliminated? Most probably, HR. Am I correct? If so, then he should work on that. Another Academic degree will not solve the problem. Give your feedback.

Ans: Let him go for M.Tech through GATE and regarding institutes search in net, Regards. Professor...........................:)
