Question by Manan on Dec 01, 2024Hindi

Listen

Sir I am graduated in 2022 B.Tech(environment) from tier 2 college. After that I was preparing for civil services for 2 years but couldn't clear it. So now I am switching my career in private sector. As of now I joined environment consultancy for initial start (legal work ) but I worried about my future. Is consultancy good for long term growth? I am totally blank. Pls guide me

Ans: Mr. Manan, In fields such environmental impact assessment, sustainability, and renewable energy, environmental consulting experience can be quite helpful. To maximize this, assess your present role performance and grow from it. Think about career paths connected to environmental engineering include government advisory jobs, big corporations, renewable energy companies, or technical consulting. Get certificates, technical skills, and project management certifications to strengthen your qualifications. Examine the long-term advantages of environmental consulting, including exposure to many sectors and chances for concentrating on audits, compliance, or impact studies. Think about career development, either long-term—consider environmental sector entrepreneurship or leadership possibilities—or temporary, working in consulting for two to three years. Last but not least, keep your present position by aggressively networking, thinking about a Master's degree, looking for companies like Ernst & Young, KPMG, Tata Power, or environmental advocacy organizations. Remember that your present situation is an excellent stepping stone; with proactive work, you may design a career path that brings fulfillment. All the BEST for Your Son’s Prosperous Future.

Ans: Yes, pursuing an MBA can be a good choice, but it depends on your interests and the institute you choose, particularly one with strong placement records. When making a decision, consider key factors such as the time you can commit to your MBA, affordability of the fees, and the mode of study (offline or online). I recommend researching reputable MBA colleges near you, shortlisting a few based on your preferences, and finalizing the one that best aligns with your career goals.
