Sir, I rejected the offer that I got during my final year of college and went for upsc preparation. But after 4 attempts couldn't clear. Now 9 years after graduation would like to get into IT industry. Thinking of pursuing Data Science course. Will that fetch me a job?

Ans: Dear Mr. Rao,
As you are already 53 and would be reaching superannuation in a few years, it is advisable to stick to the same company. If you want to change, you must look to upgrade your skills in AI and Data Science. These are the 2 skills which would be in high demand in the next 2 years and shift to a good company.

Ans: Vicky, You have not mentioned you are from which State/City.

Anyway, to begin with, please search for any 'Software Training & Placement Institutes' either in your location or nearby city. To get an idea about this type of Institute, visit the website of 'Besant Technologies'. They provide comprehensive range of courses to not only fresh graduates but also to others regardless of other background/graduation year.

Some of the institutes provide job assistance and even give job guarantee (based on your performance during training/interview).

Please check and go through the above Institute's Website (as an example) and search for same type of Institutes, personally visit some institutes (especially those which assures job), choose the right course for you and join.

As far as Data Science is concerned, this type of Institute also provided the same.

All the BEST for Your Bright Future, Vicky.
