Try to find a Job in IT. [BPO will spoil the career.]
You can get into SOftware Testing , Software Quality & Deployment , QA , Technical Writer , Web Designer , etc in small companies. All they need is skill , since they cant afford to keep all their employees as Engineers or Degree Holders.
Most of the BPO companies have very hectic life.Specially a non-technical BPO/or non-ITO is worst for person with Technical skills.
And getting 10k as pay is probably the lowest among industry standard.//
Economic hardship is hard to tackle , but a spoiled career is even worse.
And if you are still planning for getting into BPO , don't settle for any small company. Better would be to get into any MNC or big company like Convergys, IBM , HCL. SO that at least when you clear your BE/Bsc., you will get opportunities internally(IJPs) to change your domain to IT.
stay away from BPO..It will spoil your career bro...
Try to get Job in some IT firm,Don't bother if the pay is a bit less because by this you may be atleast make a entry in your desired field.
I recommend you to do a course .. Testing, Networking (preferred), programming (Java or .NET), web designing etc. this will help you in the longer run.
Hi All.. feels nostalgic reading all this. Anybody still around?
Im glad you finally chased your dream. Everyone has a bad time and they get to reach their destination in the end.
chaos software engineering is a laddah.
Personal update gonna be father in few months.
I am thinking of switching company in 6 months. Which company should I aim for better wlb with decent package
What are you doing currently?
You could go pretty much anywhere. Though I'd personally only go for startups these days since there is a huge demand in the startup space and you can get promoted quickly depending on the team size.
Got a decent offer. In less than 10 years my salary had gone 10 x (average starting salary ).
I took 6.5 years to complete 4 years engineering degree.. still able to get to some decent stage. Don't give up is the Mantra i tell to myself in case of any insecurity.
Well done. Though try not to stick to one company for too long. Try to switch every two years or so and your salary will keep going up every time.
Stick to product based companies if you can.
A bit out of topic, How do you go about asking for referrals in Good tech companies? Especially for Intern applications. Cold messages seem to get ignored here at least in India.
Technically, I'd suggest going through the T&P department if your college. Generally, companies have a tie-up with certain colleges for taking interns. So, if your college has such a program, then those companies will take some candidates from your college.
Not all companies take interns, so it's difficult to find out who would be.
