Can a 28-year-old Mechanical Engineering graduate with 5-year gap and low CGPA land a job?

Ans: Hi Santu Chakraborty,

This is a really exhaustive query.

The journey thru' your acquisition of qualifications has been vast!

In the course of your life you are now suffering from SNIOP (SUSCEPTIBLE NEGATIVE INFLUENCE OTHER PEOPLE) this happens when you let others control your life.

I have this poem.. Especially for one's like you!

The Guy in the Glass

When you get what you want in your struggle for pelf,
And the world makes you King for a day,
Then go to the mirror and look at yourself,
And see what that guy has to say.
For it isn't your Father, or Mother, or Wife,
Who judgement upon you must pass.
The feller whose verdict counts most in your life
Is the guy staring back from the glass.
He's the feller to please, never mind all the rest,
For he's with you clear up to the end,
And you've passed your most dangerous, difficult test
If the guy in the glass is your friend.
You may be like Jack Horner and "chisel" a plum,
And think you're a wonderful guy,
But the man in the glass says you're only a bum
If you can't look him straight in the eye.
You can fool the whole world down the pathway of years,
And get pats on the back as you pass,
But your final reward will be heartaches and tears
If you've cheated the guy in the glass.

Dale Wimbrow (c) 1934

Get the enthusiasm going, don't get embroiled in what life has been before!

Take a stranglehold of your life and make it BIG!

The opportunities are.. Miracles waiting to happen, what are you waiting for.. You are the catalyst!?

Ans: Am glad that your are now focused on Mechanical Engineering as this a foundational engineering discipline and lends itself to use of new tools and technologies through use of software in manufacturing. Look at acquiring project management skills and explore opportunities with optimism and passion.

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.

Ans: You can't get Govt. Job due to age limit. So try for Private job or you can go for business.
