    please need help and guidance in this problem

    @thebigk Oct 18, 2012

    The first thing to do is to get in touch with your college's training and placements officer and see if there are any companies visiting the campus that will allow you to appear for the placements. If that does not work, you should check with the alumni network of your college - connect with the seniors and see if they can help you get the initial call from the HR managers of their companies.

    If that too doesn't work out, upload your profile to popular job search websites like Naukri, Monster etc. and keen an eye on the walk-ins announced by companies.

    Another thing you may try out is look for the specific courses in your domain from the institutions that have a good placements record. You will find them in your city. I know many candidates who've gone this way and found job eventually.

    In the mean time, you may even join a small company that works in the domain of your interest so that you can build your skill set. Once you've an year or two of experience in the relevant field, you can always apply for the bigger companies if you want.

    I'd also advise you to keep yourself prepared for the recruitment process which may include aptitude tests, technical and HR rounds. You can check out several posts in the Jobs and Careers section of CrazyEngineers to help you with it. Feel free to ask your questions.

    First of all , I wanted to thank you the_big_k.
    thank you for answer.
    yes, I have did Contact my placement in charge of my collage, but the companies that are visiting campus or visited campus were only of software fields.
    I want to pursue carrier in core field. But if the Last choice is of IT-sector, I would like go for Network Engineer.
    But the situation that I am facing while searching for job is like I am getting or been called for Software jobs.
    No core field companies are there(not in private sector).
    I have heard from many that "the market is low now a days, so there is no new jobs."
    Should I wait for right job ?
    If yes, Please guide me through courses which I can take?
    I have also interest of Embedded Engineering.

  • Anoop Kumar

    @anoop-kumar-GDGRCn Oct 18, 2012

    Core companies in ECE are very less in private sector but some vacancy come, time to time , in LG, Samsung and Ericsson for trained people in VLSI, Embedded system kind of things. You have right time for get trained in your interest and also it will be useful for your final project.
    You can try for it.

    I think its better to accept some respected job offer in IT field, if offered.After that you have your time for applying in PSU and some core private sector companies.

  • Kaustubh Katdare

    @thebigk Oct 18, 2012

    Thank you for clarifying the situation. I too believe that you should accept the offer in the IT field because you can make a switch to Networking and there are many leading corporates that hire networking engineers. I'm not aware of the specific courses, but I'll tag #-Link-Snipped-# and see if she can suggest you something.

  • hinesh

    @hinesh-ClUJSb Oct 18, 2012

    thank you the_big _k, and ianoop. for your suggestions.
    #-Link-Snipped-#: VLSI and C++,Embedded Engineering i have studied as subjects during my studies. But after seeing the real scenario, Its not enough to job.
    i agree with you that i need more training in that.
    so would you guide for courses and training centers for Embedded Engineering.?
    #-Link-Snipped-#: thank you sir,
    Right this time for Network Engineer jobs everyone is asking for experience.
    (I would like to clarify that I have Taken Training for CCNA certification from IIHT,) should i got for certification in that??
    And If I go for Embedded, would it be good.?
    and which courses i should opt for Embedded.?

  • durga ch

    @durga-TpX3gO Oct 18, 2012

    Hi,

    Please chose what you want to do. Embedded Systems/ VLSI or get into Networking complelty.
    My interest as a student was in embedded and networks , I finally chose networking due to various factors which contributed.
    I also know few of people who are doing good as VLSI/embeded enginer.
    Also, you have option of DSP engineer or Telecom engineer at BSNL. Artel so on..
    check for vacancies in BSNL for signalling/communications related roles.. Its a very good organisation to work with (forget about their geenral perspective).
    if you are interested in networking jump into it.
    there are tens of thousands of ccna, so as soon as youg et into networking- u need to be prepared to keep studying to get into the niche area. A CCNA generally does day to day monitoring stuff . Incase you are lucky and have good team you might get to work on advanced topics what you might not be qualifiesd to work in (i am lucky in this matter ).
    Again, networking is to say very vast. You can get into routing/switching or security/ voice/ Service provider end technology.
    So decide well, first get a geenric perception.
    When i wanted to become a network engiener - I did this.
    GO onto Job portal - search ' network engineer'
    see what qualification they are looking for.
    attain them, keep checking and keep updating. It took me a process of 1.6 yrs, but it paid off..
    If you want to get into VLSI /embedded I suggest give CDAC entrance and get qualified enough. If you are talented enough, you dont really need all this coaching and stuff - but they only help you in openeing doors more easily. Rest is all in your hands

  • Abhishek Rawal

    @abhishek-fg9tRh Oct 18, 2012

    I am not in a position to guide you, but a great man once told me :
    VLSI is "tea plant" & EMBEDDED SYSTEMS is like "sugar"; Once you will learn to make "sweet" tea (try making different than others), The customers will pay anything for your tea ๐Ÿ˜€

  • hinesh

    @hinesh-ClUJSb Oct 19, 2012

    #-Link-Snipped-#: first of all thank you for your answer.
    and yes, its on me to choose between both., and you are right too in networking that CCNA has been chewed off by many for job.
    and as you told, I have looked up in sites as an Network Engineer and found many courses. So again I need your guidance for Networking related part.
    If i choose for Networking, which courses shell I take up.(I like wireless communication and also m good in optical fiber communication).
    which courses or preparation should be needed to become a Networking Expert engineer from your point of view.?
    And i also want to ask that, call center or BPO job would count on my experience??
    or instead of Job I should concentrate on more preparation for field. ??
    and does C-DAC have entrance exams ???
    #-Link-Snipped-# : thank you troll ...
    suggestion from a friend is always well-come
    yes i do understand both are different, with the combination of both, if a new "bland of tea" is made than customers will willing to pay our prices. ๐Ÿ˜€

  • Abhishek Rawal

    @abhishek-fg9tRh Oct 19, 2012

    No buddy, you're picking wrong point.
    What I mean to say is both are inter-related. Learn both & you'll get better opportunity for core jobs.
    'cuz you'll be knowing entire procedure from development of circuit(chip) to the programming done in embedded system.

  • hinesh

    @hinesh-ClUJSb Oct 19, 2012

    #-Link-Snipped-# : ok,
    yes, i picked wrong point.
    first i have to have knowledge about development of circuits , and after that to program it i gonna need knowledge of Embedded.
    yes your right buddy.

  • durga ch

    @durga-TpX3gO Oct 19, 2012

    please dont end up in call centre, you will have hard time justifying it on your resume.

  • hinesh

    @hinesh-ClUJSb Oct 19, 2012

    #-Link-Snipped-#: I will surely not ending up in call center.,
    I need advice that, Is it okey to do call center job mean while time..???
    or should I concentrate more on the learning(or preparing) for field subjects..??

  • durga ch

    @durga-TpX3gO Oct 19, 2012

    If I were you , I would concentrate on learning and justify the unemployment period.
    working for call centre might give you financial independence, but you might not find enough time to study/ develop sjkills

  • hinesh

    @hinesh-ClUJSb Oct 22, 2012

    #-Link-Snipped-#: yes,
    I agree with your point, i will justify the unemployment period for sure.
    on one thing I need guidance from you,
    If I wanted to pursue carrier in network, which courses will help me to boom my career.?
    and also which skills are required to be a qualified comm. engineer .

    srikanth sagarHello!! every one i am doing marketing job after completing my b.tech is it ok to do that i am every much confusing in this issue so please help me with your reply.

    The rule of thumb is that if you should thoroughly enjoy what you are doing. If you do not like marketing job; find something else.

    There are no set rules that engineers should stick to 'engineering'. Engineering is more about 'attitude'; you see ๐Ÿ˜€

    thank you Ankita for responding back. kindly look into my matter

    i have completed my btech in ECE (2015 passout batch).
    i hear from all seniors that there are not much private companies for ECE..so i m getting prblm in getting into ec job. Also ,, i m very much passionate about computers,programming,software development and ethcial hacking ...(not in NETWORKING)
    1. will i face problem in future if i persue my career as software developer because then i wont be having a CS or IT degree which may be needed for some reputed software developer..???

    or
    2. shud i join any short term course like php,java, .net or likewise ,,??

    please help me..i am very much in depressed condition.
    your suggestions and experience is all in need here

  • Ankita Katdare

    @abrakadabra Aug 11, 2015

    #-Link-Snipped-# It does not affect at all if you are a software developer with a degree in B.E. Electronics. Not even a bit, if you ask me. I have tons of friends in the IT Industry who comes from ENTC and Electrical branch and are doing some of their best work in their projects. It all comes down to how skilled you are in the domain of your choice.

    I have a problem with this:

    short term course like php,java, .net

    Why think short term when you are trying to build a lifelong career in the field?
    Give as much time as possible to learning a programming language that appeals to you.
    Don't rely much on tutors and tuition classes. Practice on your own. The teachers can only teach you the syntax and show you what good code looks like. They can also give you practical examples, but it is up to you to be inspired from them and write your own code.

    Do not ever think of being an average coder. Or average anything.
    When you say:

    i m very much passionate about computers,programming,software development and ethcial hacking

    It means a lot. You need to have efforts to show that you've done serious work in either of those fields.

    Lastly, no need to feel depressed. There are thousands of Electronics out there who don't have a job, but that doesn't keep them from doing best out of whatever opportunity that is thrown at them.

    Since you are not from a computer/IT background, prepare yourself to work doubly hard. When you go for an interview in a software development company, keep your work ready to show to them. Do your own projects. Create your own code and I am pretty sure they won't think twice before hiring you.

    thank you very much ankita.I am reallly relieved to know that i can be software developer without it/cs degree.
    Can u kindly suggest me some project or code I should work on as I am complete fresher and just have basics of programming languages (basics OOPS concepts)- C,C++,JAVA

    Start applying to all the companies that offer your dream role. That should be the first step. Find out what skills they want and make sure you develop them, either by self practise or by joining any institute.

    Also, at entry level, it's important that you are good at cracking aptitude tests and have thorough knowledge of subjects you studied during your engineering course.

    Not sure what you are asking. Lot of people look for job after engineering or go for higher studies, or start their own business or simply pick up any non-engineering field to make their career. I've seen people get into music, acting, arts, blogging to make a career in non-conventional fields. Choices are unlimited. Make up your mind!

    All the best!

    @palampalli-6hYohV Nov 13, 2015

    Which course is better among embedded systems, VLSI, Java, .net, Oracle & networking.
    First of all i would like to thank these forums for providing valuable information about the languages, career...
    I'm pursuing my B.tech final year in ECE branch in Hyderabad. My percentage is 55%(until 3rd year).
    I'm not having much knowledge about courses.
    I want to start my career by selecting a course, but I'm confused with available courses like embedded systems, VLSI, Java, .net, Oracle & networking.
    Due to lack of awareness in VLSI, Embedded systems I'm thinking to take a course in java or .net, is it good
    My questions are (regarding all the courses)
    1) one followed by other which course is having more scope in future
    2) is c language compulsory for all the courses
    3) what is the work related with each course
    4) which course is easy
    5) which course offers good income
    6) some people say that work in software field is having more tension. Is it true?
    7) while searching for a job is my percentage going to effect me
    8) some say that there are institutes offering courses and provide a job after the completion of course, is it real? If so, what r d institutes?
    9) what r the good institutes available for learning particular course

    If anyone provides the above information i'll be thankful
    Thanks in advance

    durgaIf I were you , I would concentrate on learning and justify the unemployment period.
    working for call centre might give you financial independence, but you might not find enough time to study/ develop sjkills

    ..........
    I agreed with durga answer don't go for callcenter jobs even they pay more

    Because you loose your confidence in core field
    If you want earn then go for institution tute the children's it inscrease your knowledge and income too
    And learn core subjects mean while
    When you find any opertunity in your field try to attend an interview it will boost your knowledge


    My personal suggestion is to don't go for callcenter job as I am the live example who is suffering a lot
    In worst condition employment is necessary for you then go for call centre job temporary max 6-12 months

    Hi friends.. I m an engineer graduate with 84 %,2015 passed out with mechatronics as my major.it's been one year still I didn't get any job.. no one is ready to get me a job since I m a fresher.. without even allowing Me for the interview how can I face the interview in turn get experience and job finally.. I m totally confused even registering in all top websites I m getting calls only from bpo companies. also some websites doesn't even have my particular major to be selected while registering. When no small companies or big companies are in intrested with engineering graduates.. what should I do now..
