Regarding career choice

Thread moved to Careers/Jobs section.

You did a very good thing by taking up teaching job. I'd have following recommendation for you -

1. Upload your resume to all popular job sites. Send it to your seniors and keep watch on entry level walk-ins conducted by software companies. I'm sure there will be plenty of them in your region. That is, keep an eye on any job opportunities that come your way.

2. For any of the post graduate studies, you will first have to clear entrance exam. The first step will be to decide what you wish to do: MS/M.Tech Or MBA or other options. I'd highly recommend opting for a field you're most comfortable with and interested in. If you have other constraints like budget; then you will have to select the best option that comes closest to your interests.

Next, you will have to start preparing for relevant entrance exam. For example, if you decide on M.S studies; you will have to prepare for GRE & TOEFL. Instead of thinking that you're wasting your time, give yourself a positive boost by saying I've all 24 hours every-day to prepare for the exams. Depending on the date of your exam; you will have some good time to prepare. Dedicate yourself to studies for 3 months or so.

3. You may also think of joining a course with some private institute that can help you with placements.

4. Alternatively, why not use your teaching experience to conduct private tuition classes or doubt solving sessions and help engineering students. It would result in good income, if earning is one of your top priorities.

Does this help?

Thanking you very much sir,for guiding me. your suggestions are right,instead of I faced a lot of problems.My months teaching job did not create a satisfactory job for me,consequently i got depressed,and left that job.I was so much depressed, that further I decided not to join teaching area.But right now I think if i can survive for initially one year as a lecturer in any college, then further, no problem will occur. I seen engineering guys to be very naughty. They tried to behave me like a friend of theirs, not as a teacher.Cause I looks of same age of them.I am just 21 now. Sir I am totally confused now.I given GATE two times.IN 2008 my score was 69.67,in 2009 i just scored 14marks out of 100, then further i did not give GATE. As I was not studying as much as it needs to get qualified.I am lacking my confidence right now.

Depression won't take you anywhere, so the only way is to keep a positive mindeset and find a way out. As I said, first you need to find out your interests and decide one of the career tracks. If MS is your choice, it would be better to start preparing for the GRE and TOEFL. You may even think about joining a coaching class so that your doubts are cleared.

Get rid of all the worries and think with a clear mind. If your score in GATE wasn't good twice, it would be a better choice to not attempt it again. MS would be relatively easier and better option if you are interested.

Just focus on what you want to do and don't be depressed. Depression worsens a bad situation. There's nothing wrong right now; not getting a job for 2-3 years isn't a big deal and won't affect your career in the long run. You have time, so utilize it right now than getting depressed at later stage.

Your profile says that you are computer engineers if you seeking for job and you have interest in web development then upto my knowledge there is great demand of web developers in Delhi/NCR region

You are right sir. By childhood I used to teach my friends upto my B.Tech. and all of them were always satisfied with my way of teaching and commented on me to be a good teacher in future. But ultimately when I was in a chance to become lecturer ,then i could not succeed,ultimately i was out of that job. I learned alot from that scenario of job. I have seen how typical is a private engg. college culture. Senior colleagues used to taunt and demoralize. Alot of politics in the organization. All this disturbed me alot. there were people who always tried to decline my confidence level, instead of increasing of theirs'.

Well..all this was past. But How to react in a job with boss,colleagues,juniors is still a big deal for me. In that job my seniors always used to order their work to be done my me. All this was very bad for me. I was not knowing , how to deal all this and still, I dont know. By childhood, I am fond of reading, and my parents want, I do something extra ordinary, or something really very big in my field. But time to time I loose consistency ad efforts, I read motivational books, but dont implement.All this is lagging me back.Initially, I thought to do M.Tech. regular after GATE. But financially , i was not able to do this. Since I have taken educational loan for my B.Tech.

Now I decided to job, for loan installment. And higher studies from correspondence for my career growth.

I did not succeed in GATE twice, because, at that time I was suffering from teenage problem, being disturbed, I did not give sufficient time to studies.

Every time GATE exam paper was seeming to me easy. But I was not able to solve it correctly.In my view to score 85 in GATE is not a big deal, if I read normally, and if I read seriously then i can score above 95 percentile.

But for which study material which kind of I will be needed and from where please guide to me. GATE forums are there on the internet. But i need books who really can guide me for GATE.

Finally thanks really very much for boosting my confidence.

And please guide me all the points of confusion which I have discussed here, related to job, related to GATE study material etc etc.

All you need to do is implement the advise you've obtained from various sources. Decide which advise suits your conscience and then act upon it. If you think GATE is your game, then go for it. Don't amplify your problems on your own; instead, look at them as challenges.

Finally, you have to...just do it!
