Question by Sumit - Sep 21, 2024Hindi

Career

Hello, i have 26 yrs of experience in the IT industry, and currently working as a consultant technical manager for important projects in several drdo labs in Hyderabad for the past few years. Despite being handson in coding, system design, I am also responsible for team management, deliverables, requirement analysis, and stakeholder management. I have an executive MBA from xlri and certification from pmi. Being 54 years of age, what are my options? Are there opportunities for people in the 50s? How about remote work or freelancing opportunities? I kind of find myself stuck and would like to explore opportunities. Any ideas? how to stay relevant in this ever changing world of technology?

Ans: Sumit Sir,
54-year-old with a strong background in the IT field, high-stakes projects, and an Executive MBA from XLRI can still stay relevant and look for opportunities. You can try for freelance consulting, work from home, coach, mentor, and train businesses in Agile methods, stakeholder handling, and team leadership.

To stay current, you can move into academic or research roles as an adjunct professor, work on research projects with universities or think tanks, or start your own business as a niche consultant.

To look for opportunities, make your LinkedIn profile stand out, share stories or insights, actively network, upskill strategically, and build a portfolio. Being old is an asset, but it's important to use it as a unique selling point and be flexible to stay competitive. By carefully using your skills and experience, you can open up many good opportunities and continue to thrive in the ever-changing tech world. All The Best for Your Prosperous Future.

How will be rt mssu b tech it instead of any government college of engineering

Question by Anushka - May 17, 2025

Career

I have been allotted computer engineering in thapar university. How is the branch.. What difference is there between coe and cse. Are there any placement differences?

Ans: Good. While "COE" and "CSE" can sometimes be used interchangeably to refer to computer engineering and computer science, respectively, they represent distinct fields of study. CSE (Computer Science and Engineering) generally focuses on the theoretical aspects of computing, algorithms, and software development, while COE (Computer Engineering) emphasizes the hardware and software interaction of computer systems. Don't think of placement much. Study properly. Leave this servant oriented mindset and try to be a entrepreneur. This ghost of placements are injected the brain of children by the sad, bad and mad society.
