Question by Kanchan - Mar 05, 2024Hindi

Career

Hi I am an engineering graduate passout of 2018 batch I still didn't find any job related to my education later I got married and a kid now my resume is not even considered as I have 0 experience is there any chances for me to get a job ?

Ans: Hi Kanchan,

You definitely have opportunities. However it will be harder compared to the other engineers with your experience. One reason you might be finding it difficult, is because the skilled labour industry is evolving rapidly. Many things you would have learned in 2018 might not be in use today. Not to add that the college curriculum has been outdated for years.

You can solve for this by identifying the field in which you wish to work. Going through upskilling programs in the desired field. Many such programs also come with job assistance and help you get your career started.

I am turning 29 this year. I am a man. I have an MBA with a dual specialization majoring in operations management and secondary in finance. I have a work experience of 15 months. I have been unemployed since 2020. I am taking a course in learning python and it's application in data analysis specifically it's application in finance and operations.What is the realistic salary range I can expect an employer would be willing to pay me that is if they will hire me in the first place.

Ans: Dear ,

feel sorry that you being an MBA in OPs and Finance , remained out of job for almost 4 yrs hence you have to learn a new course like Python . I don't know much about your profile from our query however what i feel that your work experience was not pleasant hence you quit the job and now shifted to a very new sector . As far as salary is concerned for any IT professional having some idea in python which of course are in demand but as you lack any technical degree in Computer Science , you may not command very high salary. I will suggest you to get back to you to restart your career using your management degree simultaneously.

I am a mechanical engineering graduate at 2019. I have zero experience and its been 5 years of gap plus i don't have a good cgpa, my cgpa is 5. Can i get a job at 28? What is my future of life. Can i do something in life?

Ans: Dear ,

It is really disappointing for any one to have nill work experience since 2019 though I personally don't believe . Low CGP doesn't become an impediment for any one which will not allow any job or engagement for ant graduate engineer . Getting a job depends upon your sincere desire and efforts ,not entirely on your cgp. A mechnical Engineer can easily join as site incharge for any mechnical project company . Can get into Techno commercial like Sales Engineer's job in B2B companies who keep on looking for smart engineers . Even Engineering service providers like Automobile company, Industrial products mfg companies as GT then in their Production , Operations or maintenance deptt. If not any thing you can join any FMCD company in their sales & Service dept so for me you can get numerous jobs but of course you need to try for it.

Sir, What shall be chosen B Tech CSE with DS at SRM KTR or Btech IT at JIIT Noida

I got 2300 OBC RANK IN JEE B ARCH.BUT MY 12 PERCENTAGE IS 73.5.CAN I APPLY FOR JOSAA OR WAIT FOR MY IMPROVME NT RESULT THEN APPLY FOR CSAP. One more answer whether the result of improvement come before CSAP counselling ,

Ans: You can apply for JoSAA now, but for CSAB, you should wait for improvement results if they can raise your 75% eligibility, because CSAB eligibility requires meeting criteria. Improvement results usually come before CSAB rounds, but timing is not guaranteed, so plan cautiously. It is better to explore other options from a safer point of view.
