Education and Career Forum

sir,
I'm ME(EEE & Applied Electronics) graduate. I have 8 years teaching experience.I would like to switch over to gov job. so pls tell me what are the possible gov jobs I can get and when do they call for that posting.
thank you

I have completed my ph.d. in 2008 in the subject of statistics. Present time i am pursing job as assistant professor in BBDNIIT,LKO.

i am an honours graduate(english)....what kind of courses will help me to get a government job????please suggest.

My friend there are plenty of jobs in government sector for post graduates candidates in Engineering. However calculating your age by the fact that you have 8 years teaching experience, I fear that this bus has already left for you. I may be wrong in my calcuations.

The reason I said that is because most government jobs for Engineers have age limit for 21 to 30 years which is extended by 5 years for reserve category candidates. Unless you belong to reserve category I fear you may not be eligible for the government jobs except of one which is lecturer job in central or state government college.

But since you are already in the teaching profession and looking to switch, I am not sure how much interested you would be in lecturer job. But if you have been teaching in private college, this is a perfect opportunity for you to make a switch and get job in government college. Below I am pointing out all the options in front of you in government sector since I have no clue of your age.


PSU JOB

The first option is PSU job. More than 100 Public Sector Undertakings in India offer jobs to Engineering candidates. All the PSU post a job ad in the leading newspaper following which you can apply for job in PSU. You will however have to appear in a exam followed by the interview. The Public Sector Undertakings that offer jobs to EEE candidates are:

APSEB

Your age should be between 21 to 30 years.

Up to five years relaxation in upper age limit for the reserve category candidates.

Firstly you will have to appear in the written exam followed by the interview for the job.


IES

Indian Engineering Services (IES) exam is another good option for Engineering candidates to get jobs in various government agencies. The IES exam is conducted by Union Public Service Commission (UPSC) in June every year. There are total of 5 written exams followed by the interview for the job.
