Career

Hello Sir,
I completed my MBA in finance in 2016.
I have two years of work experience.
Due to some family issues, I have not been working for the last three years. How can I re-enter the job market?
I am 29 years old. Please suggest the possible sectors where I will do well.
I am in dire need of a job.
Thank you, Sir.
Trimukh Pasheme

Ans:

Hi Trimukh.

With a finance background, you stand a chance to enter almost every industry.

However, since you have not been working for three years, you would need to do some course in financial management and also be open to entry level jobs like that of a billing executive to restart your career.

Hello sir, I am graduate in b.com , MBA in general management from ICFAI, Tripura. Worked as banker for 6 years since 2008. On career break since 2014 but during this time I did my MBA and worked as freelance in recruitment and as subject matter expert in finance. Since 2020 , no projects and due to family health issues discontinued . In 2022 moved to Hyderabad and did CSPO certification from Scrum Alliance and recently completed a course in Oracle fusion financial functional consultant. But after all efforts I am not getting job because of career gap. Please suggest how women can re- enter in non banking sector. Please suggest. Thankyou.

Ans: There are jobs available, you will have to keep searching. Check your network of friends, apply through placement agency, upload your cv on job portals etc. Try to take up a job in relevant domain even if you are not completely satisfied with it and then keep searching, Else the gap would increase,

Career

I'm a 23-year-old still struggling to find a job. I graduated in 2023 with a BBA in Finance, but I made a big mistake by not taking a job opportunity and instead started preparing for banking exams, in which I failed miserably. Now, I’m unemployed with a gap year, while my friends have jobs and are happy. I’ve lost all interest in government jobs, so I’ve started applying to private companies, but so far, I’ve had no success. Nobody wants to hire an obsolete product like me. I’m a worthless person who destroyed his own career. I wanted to build a career in finance but now I don’t know what to do—please, I need guidance.

Ans: You did not waste your time during the last 1 year and had been preparing for Bank exam only which itself is an experience. NEVER get demotivated by temporary failures. To gain experience, try to join any small or medium-sized company to begin with. You have mentioned you have started applying for jobs, but have NOT mentioned through which sources. LinkedIn is the 1st best source. Having a professional resume is important to get shortlisted at least for the interview and also you should customize your Resume for each job you are applying, based on the JD (job description) advertised. If possible & your economic conditions permit, join MBA-Finance in any reputed Distance Learning University such as IGNOU and / or join online courses, related to your domain. After conducting a research for 3-months on 'Resume Building', I prepared an eBook, containing 24 pages, titled, "What if you could create your Professional Resume without Googling". Some of the Tips I have reproduced below. Please go through it and try to follow them. 12 QUALITIES Your Resume Should Have: (1) Uniqueness & Outstanding (2) Updated Snapshot of Your Career (Brief & Relevant) (3) Keysords of Job Description (4) Adept to Job Description Advertised
(5) Your Expertises Relevant to The Job (6) Focusing More on Achievements Quantitatively (7) Being Selective & include Only Relevant Information (8) Concise & Maximum 2-Pages. Less is More. (9) Easily Scannable to Look for Desired Characteristics,
and Draw Attention to Experiences, if applicable (10) Having Several Versions of Your Resume tailored for Certain Employers or Types of Positions (11) Impress Recruiters To Meet You in the Interview & (12) PROFESSIONAL Email / Webmail ID & Professional LinkedIn URL. Strategize your Job searching skills. All the BEST for Your Bright Future.

Question by Priyanka - Jul 22, 2025Hindi

Career

My son got 245 in bits .He can get any Brecht branch

Ans: Priyanka Madam, by now your son must have been allotted/not allotted any seat by BITS. Please update the status for today. However, please note, A BITSAT score of 245 situates you within the previous two years’ closing-score bands for core engineering streams at the Pilani, Goa, and Hyderabad campuses. At Pilani, the B.E. Chemical Engineering cutoff ranged from 224 in 2023 to 247 in 2024, placing your 245 close to the 2024 threshold and comfortably above 2023’s mark; B.E. Civil Engineering closed at 213 and 238, making admission highly probable; and B.E. Manufacturing Engineering cutoffs of 220 and 243 indicate a strong likelihood of allotment. At Goa, Chemical Engineering closed at 239 in 2024 and 248 in 2023, and Civil around – (not offered in 2024) – but Pilani-equivalent streams suggest safe admission; Manufacturing cutoffs mirror Pilani trends, bolstering your prospects. At Hyderabad, Chemical Engineering cutoffs of 238 and 209 over the two years ensure a secure allotment, while Civil Engineering’s 235–204 band similarly favors your score; Manufacturing at Hyderabad showed closing marks near 218–251, indicating moderate probability. Across campuses, Civil and Manufacturing remain reliably within reach, Chemical at Pilani may require waitlist movement but is feasible given historical fluctuations, and all three streams at Hyderabad and Goa present strong chances. Additional seats open during special iterations further enhance admit probabilities.

Recommendation: Considering consistent cutoff trends and seat matrices, prioritize B.E. Civil and Manufacturing Engineering at BITS Pilani for guaranteed allotment, consider Chemical Engineering at Pilani via waitlist movement, and secure Chemical, Civil, or Manufacturing Engineering at BITS Hyderabad or Goa for assured admission, capitalizing on slightly lower cutoffs and ample seat availability. All the BEST for a Prosperous Future!

Question by Manjunath - Jul 18, 2025Hindi

Career

I am working as Business Analyst from past 4 years but I wanted to move to technical role. I have done Btech in CSE from tier-3 college. I wanted some advise on the the best way to switch to a tech role. 1. Taking some online boot camp to get in-depth knowledge and doing side projects over the weekends 2. Taking WILP from BITS in Software engineering/ data science 3. Prepare from GATE 2026 and aim for IITs

Ans: Manjunath Sir, To shift into a technical position, integrating structured learning, credentialing, and practical experience is essential. The recommended pathway combines immersive project-based training with a recognized postgraduate credential while keeping a long-term goal of elite technical qualification. Begin with a part-time online software engineering or data science bootcamp, dedicating weekends to substantial portfolio projects to build hands-on skills and confidence in key stacks . Concurrently, enroll in BITS Pilani’s Work-Integrated M.Tech (Software Engineering or Data Science & Engineering) to earn a UGC-approved postgraduate degree without leaving your job, benefitting from weekend live classes, remote labs covering full-stack or analytics tools, and a final semester dissertation that bridges theory with organizational impact . This dual track—bootcamp plus WILP—provides immediate upskilling, peer and mentor networks, and a formal degree. After 12–18 months, if aiming for top-tier R&D or core engineering roles, commence GATE 2026 preparation via a structured three-phase roadmap: concept building (June–August), full-length practice (September–November), and final mock-test calibration (December–January), targeting a CSE rank
