Hello Sir I got robotics and AI in AMRITA @ Bangalore campus in first round. Is it a right to proceed or wait to upgrade

Ans: Kushi,

Digital transformation and the increasing prevalence of remote work are reshaping hiring practices in various industries, requiring candidates to possess new skills and adaptability.

Hence, understanding current market trends is crucial for improving employability in the IT Sector, the GROWING impact of AI & ML is creating new job opportunities and changing requirements for existing knowledge, making upskilling is necessary.

As such, it is advised to upgrade yourself in AI & MI.

As you have mentioned that you are in 1st Year BTech, here are the tips / strategies you should follow while pursing your BTech & just before and after completing your BTech, to be competent in the job market:

While Pursuing Your BTech:

1) Make sure, you continue to main a decent Score / CGPA / Percentage till you complete your UG without backlogs / arrears.
2) Join 2-3 Co-curricular Activities Club (related to your Domain) & extra-curricular activities.
3) Create a LinkedIn Profile, if already you do not have.
4) If you already have LinkedIn Account, fine-tune it with keywords / achievements / qualifications / certifications etc.
5) Connect to professionals of same domain, but do not ask for jobs. If your profile matches their requirements, they will definitely be in touch with you.
6) Every 3-months, you should keep updating your LinkedIn Profile for recent achievements etc.
7) Start researching about the companies visited the College during the last 3-years & know their nature business / manpower requirements in ‘Career’ Section.
8) Most important: You should start doing Certification Courses either online / offline, related to your domain to be competent in job market.

After Completing Your BTech:

1) Just before completing your BTech, prepare well for the Campus Interview Test / Interview / Group Discussion, whichever will be applicable.
2) Start applying for jobs through LinkedIn Job Alerts, if the Job Description posted by the employers / recruiters / companies, match your profile.
3) Keep ready your ‘RESUME’ professionally prepared. Make sure your ‘Resume’ is simple & brief with keywords with your LinkedIn Account’s clickable link. Include SUMMARY Section in your Resume as Summary Section is the only Section which Recruiters / Employers read.
4) And, keep upgrading your skills to be competitive in job market always.

Hope the above information will help you.
