I'm 24.5 years old female, unemployed B.Tech graduate. Prepared TN state services Exam for 3.5 years. Failed in final stage. Gave few central govt exams also but in that also failed in final stage. Financial condition : single mother with 15k salary. Brother preparing for jee 2024. He has to join engineering in june 2024. Uncertain. My state of mind : 1. I must give SSC exam which are on second half of 2024. But i am afraid, if i dont clear this time, another 1 year waste of time. 2. I can't imagine myself in IT industry/BPO because i fear coding and tele calling job because of their uncertain nature. 3. At present, i can't ask my mother for my marriage also because this year my brother's college addmission is the priority? What should i do?

Ans: I understand your concerns and challenges. Given your B.Tech background and financial situation, consider exploring non-technical government exams beyond SSC that align with your strengths and interests. Focus on enhancing your skills through short-term courses or online certifications related to your chosen field. Additionally, consider part-time or remote work options to contribute to the family income while pursuing your goals. Prioritizing your mental health and well-being is crucial during this challenging time. Communicate openly with your family about your aspirations and challenges to seek their support. Remember that everyone's journey is unique, and it's okay to take the time you need to find the right path for yourself. All the best for your future!!

Ans: I have gone through the details of your Efforts, Failures, Depression & Your family’s Economic condition.

Based on the above factors, here are the suggestions for you:

1) Till your age bars, try to attempt other comparatively easier (than UPSC) Competitive Exams for Government Jobs & prepare daily for 2-3 hours before & after you come back from work.

2) But AVOID attempting those Competitive Exams which you have already done a number of times and failed. Lack of change in preparation strategies / change in Govt. Policy are the reasons for your subsequent failures.

3) Keeping in view your family’s economic condition & your AGE now, it is suggested to DEFINITELY go for any work, related to your domain, to support your family.

4) Try to upgrade your skills by joining short-term courses with any Institute, related to your domain (or) any other domain you are passionate over. However, make sure that the Institute you join provides JOB GUARANTEE after you complete the Course. Or you can join any ONLINE Courses which are much in demand in job-market.

5) If time does not permit for you to prepare for Competitive Exams & if you feel you are highly demotivated for Govt. Exams, it is advisable for you to fully FOCUS on your Career, related to Civil Engineering & gain good experience.

Hope I have clarified your doubts.

If you need any other clarifications or have questions for anyone, post your questions (in detail) to me and/or follow me here in RediffGURU for more useful information on ‘Careers / Education / Jobs’.

All The BEST for your Bright Future from RediffGURU.

Coming to the University of Strathclyde, top-ranked in the UK for Computer Science, this university is renowned for its linkages with industry, research possibilities, as well as outstanding student services, offering robust employment opportunities.
