  sir,i have done my btech(CSE) 2014 passout.i was trained in java basics in 4-1 semister.in my college there are no placements.in june_july there was no openings on developement and also i was weak in aptitude at that time. i joined in manual Testing-QTP course and i got job in a small telecom company with 1.3 package as manual tester.but some where in my mind it is tickling that i should be developer.
  
  now i got opertunity to get into a MNC as manual tester with 3lacs pkg.can i accept this job or i sholud resign my current job and try for java developer job?
  plz help me in taking decision?

  So far my opinion is concerned, You should go ahead saying Yes, Yes and Yes to the new job in MNC. Well Salary does matter in life. With the hike in salary, you would get money which you can invest to make yourself learn various technologies. Learning those technologies, you can apply in same company or some other firms for the post of developers. No issues with that.
  
  Another question that might ring in your mind: Suppose I work for company as a tester to 1 or 1.5 year, why the next company would take me as a developer?
  Answer is: Do not worry about it, Companies are even hiring candidates who are sitting idle for 1 or 1.5 years searching job. You will be having an advantage that, you have utilized your time working live in any of the profit making project for some random firm.
  
  So In Brief, Say Yes to the new offer. Good Luck. God bless you.!! 😀😀
