Yes. You are definitely eligible to get job opportunities after completion of B.Sc in Zoology. But whatever you heard, that is completely right.

The bad thing is that the candidates are facing so many problems to get job opportunities after completion of B.Sc or M.Sc in Zoology.

I have seen many of the candidates who have completed Zoology course and trying to get for jobs for number of years.

Even though some people will get jobs, they are not being offered good salaries at fresher level.

Rather than opting for job opportunities, what I can suggest you is to join MBA course at Post Graduation level so that you can easily get job opportunity.

You can crack civil services exam to join various civil services like
