Your future is also safe in Govt.job.

So now you decide what you want govt. or private job.

ALL THE BEST!

Hi Dear
It is a completely personal choice What you do in future?
But if our suggestion then you do Govt. job.
Because in private job money is there but not mental satisfiction.
If you do Governemnt jobs there money is there and also satisfaction is there
So always Government job is better than private jobs.

Good Luck..............

IES is better option for you than the doing job in a private compney.. because of very high scope and healthy sallery..

Government spending comprises more than 15 percent of India's GDP.

Dear pal,
IES being a government work is always better than private works as only through government job one can directly serve the people. Being in government job you get a lot of benefits too. You will be paid a good salary and will get other considerations too. With this qualification you can serve people any where in India.
But to getting into the service is not a easy job as there is more competition . Moreover you can attempt the exam only a limited numbers of times and there is also restriction on the age limit for the aspirant to apply.

Re: Is becoming an IES officer(Civil Engineering) better than doing a private job?

According to me becoming IES officer is better,because once you get job in IES you will have lot benefits provided by government and you will also have job guarantee.Were as jobs in Private companies,you may have better facilities than government,but you will have that facilities till you work in that company.You may loss your job,because company in loss, recession etc.So you will not have job guarantee in any private companies.Their will be always ups and downs.

As you have completed civil Engineering and if your age is between 21 to 30 year,then you can appear for Indian Engineering Service exam this year.

Important dates for IES-2012 Exam:
Issue of application form from 25th Feb 2012 to 24th March 2012.

Here is the link,you can fill the application form online.The application form will available in this link only between the date as mentioned above.

IES or Private Jobs


IES or Indian Engineering Service is one of the most elite government jobs which can be available to an Indian citizen..

There is no comparison between a private job and the Engineering Service job..

The engineering services is definitely better without a doubt as it provides you with a really good salary,secured future,regular promotions and perhaps a dream job you can ever imagine..

Although to enjoy all these pleasures..the students must clear the Indian Engineering Service Exam conducted by the UPSC every year..

It is considered to be a really difficult exam and a very few candidates get selected finally..which makes it all the more difficult to get in there..

It requires sheer hard work and dedication to get in there..and that is the reason why it is such a desirable job by all the engineers..

If you really think that you have it in you to compete and make it to the top level..then you should definitely try for appearing for the Indian Engineering Service..

In order to appear for the Indian Engineering Services..a candidate must be a B.Tech degree holder in any of the following streams

Civil Engineering
Mechanical Engineering
Electronics and Electrical Engineering
Electrical Engineering


You should be within the age limit of 21-30 years for general category,age relaxation of 3 years for OBC candidates and age relaxation of 5 years for the SC/ST candidates..

The maximum number of attempts permitted for the general candidates is 4,for OBC it is 7 and for SC/ST there is n limit..

The Indian Engineering Services shall take place 15th June,2012 and the forms for the exam shall be available from 25th February,2012 and the last date for the form submission is 26th March,2012..

all the best..

Re: Is becoming an IES officer(Civil Engineering) better than doing a private job?

hi friend,
doing a private job or becoming an ies officer, which one is better? for this question the answer is "it is depends on your interest".
if we compare a privete job and an ies officer then certainly we can tell that ies officer is much better but to become an ies officer we need to work very hard.
if you can think you can work hard then go for ies.

All the best

Re: Is becoming an IES officer(Civil Engineering) better than doing a private job?

dear friend,
Yes, my friend govt. jobs are always better than private jobs..

IES exam is a civil service exam, it is conducted by UPSC every year..

After clearing the exam you will get a chance to do administrative jobs under the central govt..
We all know that govt. jobs are more secure , more comfortable than the private jobs....

Beside this , you will also get facilities in govt. job like- hospital facility, quarter, Travel facilities etc..
So, definitely govt. jobs are more beneficial than private job..
Go for the IES exam..
All the best..

the jobs which you would be getting after clearing the indian engineering services exaination is surely better than the job what you are doing right now and even your pay and the powers will be lot more than what you have right now ,but clearing the ies examination is an very tough task and you have to really work hard to do well in these examinations also you need lot of time to do well in these examinations ,
you should follow the materials of the cosching institutes like the ace academy and the made easy institutes these will surely help you in very good manner and you will get good idea about the type of questions asked in these examinations ,
also you can download the previous years question papers from the website www.upsc.gov.in and try to solve them and also these question papers will help in guiding on which topics to concentrate on

Re: Is becoming an IES officer(Civil Engineering) better than doing a private job?

Hello,

A central Govt job is definitely much lucrative and comfortable than any kind of private job.

Job as an IES officer is prestigious and as well as prosperous one. Job security is guarantied in such jobs.

On the other hand, private organizations do not provide job security and also comfort.

These days,Govt salary schemes are made in such way that the pay scale is as much as the private farms offer.

So rest of the decision is yours. Best wishes..

Re: Is becoming an IES officer(Civil Engineering) better than doing a private job?

hi..
it is an personal choice to make that whether to do private job or become an ies officer,
in terms of the job security government job is better,
also you have many perks like government house and car is also provided ,
these days the salary of government job is also on par with the private jobs,
also you will be am gazetted officer enjoying many other perks,
the only drawback is that the promotions are very slow in the government sector as compared to the private sector,
