Education and Career Forum

Sir/Madam,

I am 32 years old,I done my Post Graduation(MCA) in 2006. Recently I started the job trails for government jobs. I dont know ,how to start and which one is the better. Please help me. Which Jobs for suitable for my Age and Education.

If you belong to general category then there is hardly any opportunity left in case of government jobs because for 90% of government jobs, upper age limit is 30 or 32 years maximum. For OBC and SC/ST candidates, there is upper age relaxation of three years and five years respectively. If you are from reserved category, then you can apply for Civil Services exam would be the best option.

Second opportunity for you is to apply for National Eligibility Test for becoming lecturer in government colleges. There is no upper age limit for lectureship. Master's degree candidates can apply for this exam. But for this exam you must have 55% marks in master's degree in computer application.

At the age of 32 years you are not eligible to appear for any of the government sector examinations and so if you belong to any of the other categories such as the OBC or the SC|St categories you can apply till 33 years and 35 years of age limits

There are multiple career opportunities in the government sectors for the post graduates such as the

1. IBPS
2. UPSC
3. RRB
4. SSC
5. TET
6. CTET,etc

These are some government sector jobs which are available and many of these government sectors will allow till 30 years only and for applying to the teacher recruitment there are no age limits and the examination which you can appear with 32 years are TET and CTET examinations.

Sorry to say that but you have crossed upper age limit required for government jobs. That is why you have only a few options left in government sector jobs like BPSC, B.Ed, NET, TET, CTET. As because in TET, CTET there is no upper age limit. In NET also there is no upper age limit.

In most of the government job the eligibility criterion for age is 30 years for general category candidates. Generally SC/ST candidates get relaxation of 5yrs in upper age limit and 3yrs relaxation in upper age limit for OBC candidates. So if you belongs to general category candidates then you will not be eligible for any government job. Also if you are from other category then it will be difficult for you to get job within this short period.

Still you can try for various job like Central government Group D, Group C job, Jobs in post office, Civil services etc. Also there are vacancies like IT officer in administrative office for which you will be eligible. Try to follow employment news regularly to get update for government jobs.

Alternatively you can try for jobs in private sector. Lots of opportunities are there in private company for the MCA passed candidates. You can also join as lecturer in BCA college or any graduate college.
