Sir I have done B.Tech in mechanical engineering in 2013. Still I am jobless. Please let me know what should I do? Any courses that will be helpful for me to get a job?

It is quite sad to know that you are jobless for the past three years. But there is nothing to worry much as you can still achieve great heights in your career. You should prepare yourself for higher studies. Since the gap is of three years, so it will be better to go for long term course rather than short term certification courses. If you want a job at this moment, then you have two options.

- Pursue short term courses in IT field like SAP, Hadoop, Tableau, Salesforce, Informatica, etc. based on which you can get a job opportunity in IT sector.
- Prepare yourself for government sector jobs. Appear in the written exams, clear all selection rounds to crack through.
However , the best option would be to go for higher studies preferably M.Tech or MS or MBA.

Today there are various courses to opt for but on a serious note, no course guarantees a job, as you yourself are an engineer you might be knowing it very much as even engineering is a reputed course/degree.

However, I would suggest you to start your preparation for government jobs and alongside also do keep on looking for any vacancy in private firms also. You should not waste your time in just thinking the ways of getting job, start your preparation today as there are number of government job opportunities which you can opt for if prepared well for the examination.

It's not only you friend, there are several out there in our country who is jobless after their graduation. First think what you want to do in your life. Then take your descession.

Here are some option for you to think about.

Try for Core Company :
You can find some consultancy and try for core companies as you have knowledge in this field.

Come to IT sector :
You can go for some short term course and start learning IT step by step. I know you are thinking that you know almost nothing about IT after your .Tech in Mechanical Engineering. But believe me you can do it. There are so many things you can do in IT sector after having 6-10 months training.

Prepare for Govt jobs :
This is perfect time for you to secure your life. Forget about how much money you have spent or your parents have spent for you. Plan your schedule and start preparing for govt job. If you do it carefully you will surely find a job.

Hi !.
Need Advice.
I graduated with BE in Electrical and Electronics in 2017 and have been unemployed ever since then. I'm planning to pursue masters in power without research option to improve my employ ability. Should i pursue my masters, especially after I have forgotten much of my electrical portion?. Will i be able to hold up for my masters degree with limited knowledge?. OR should i pursue something else like management ?.
