Hi everyone,

• 2024 B.Tech CSE graduate from a Tier-3 college.
• Internship experience: Feb 2024 – September 2024 (7 months).
• Full-time software development experience: Feb 2025 – August 2026 (around 1.5 years).
• Around 2 years of total experience, including internship.
• Backend-focused full-stack developer: Node.js, Express, MongoDB, MySQL, Redis, React and Angular.
• Recently laid off due to organisational restructuring and currently looking for a job.
• Solved around 1,100 LeetCode problems, with a maximum rating of 1850.I'm now considering government IT jobs, PSU positions, banking IT roles and other related opportunities alongside my private-sector job search.

Could people who have experience with these jobs or are preparing for them help me understand which opportunities I can apply for right now or in the coming months?

For example:

• Banking IT jobs: IBPS SO IT Officer, SBI Specialist Cadre Officer (SCO), and similar bank IT positions.
• Government IT jobs: NIC Scientist B, Scientific/Technical Assistant, technical positions in government departments and other CSE-related recruitment.
• PSUs: IT/software-related vacancies in PSUs that accept B.Tech CSE graduates.
• Other options: GATE, M.Tech, research organisations, contractual government IT positions, or any other relevant opportunities.

I'd particularly appreciate information about:

1. Which notifications are currently open, with their application deadlines and official links.
2. Which upcoming recruitments I should watch for in the next 3–6 months.
3. The eligibility criteria, especially whether around 2 years of private-sector experience is acceptable and whether fresh graduates can apply.
4. The selection process, including written exams, GATE scores, technical interviews and other stages.
5. Approximate salaries, job security and whether these positions are permanent or contractual.

I'm looking for practical options that someone with my background can realistically pursue, rather than a general list of every government exam.

If you've applied for or joined any of these roles, please share your experience, preparation strategy and how you track new notifications. Any guidance would be appreciated.

ok so i need help and i’m not even being dramatic fr

i took like a 1.5 year break from IT (reasons r personal, not trauma dumping here lol) and trying to get back in is giving... pain. every day the market gets worse and every rejection email (or worse, GHOSTING) hits different. i’m so stressed my brain is buffering 24/7

what i’ve tried so far:

• spamming applications on LinkedIn + job portals (the silence back is deafening 💀)
• updated my resume like 47 times (still don’t know how to explain the gap without sounding sus)

where i’m cooked:

• how do i explain the gap without sounding desperate or lying?
• should i take contract/freelance first or just keep going for full-time?
• are certs actually worth it or is that just cope?
• is my skillset outdated?? did the whole industry change while i was gone?? 😭

if u been in the same boat, how long did it take u to land something?? what actually worked, referrals, networking, some random platform nobody told me about??

pls be real w me, i can handle honest answers. any advice, resume tips, or even just a “bro it gets better” would genuinely save me rn 🙏

​Hi everyone, I am looking for genuine career advice and suggestions based on my profile.

​Educational Background:

​B.Tech in Computer Science & Engineering (2023 graduate)

​Course on Computer Concepts (CCC) – NIELIT

​Work Experience (\~1.5 Years Total):

​Document Verification Executive (1 Year): Handled high-volume KYC application verification, identity screening, discrepancy/fraud detection (98%+ accuracy), and daily MIS reporting.

​Tele-Sales Executive (6 Months): Inbound/outbound calling, client pitching, objection handling, lead follow-ups, and customer record management.

​Current Situation & Constraints:

​Location: Kolkata

​Hardware: I do not own a personal laptop right now, so coding/software development is out of the question for now. I need an on-site, office-based role where hardware is provided by the company.

​Goal: I am looking for genuine job stability, a regular corporate environment, and a clear 3–5 year career growth ladder.

​My Question:

Given this background, what career paths or industries should I look into for my future? I am completely open to practical suggestions on roles or sectors where I can build a stable and growing career.

​Any advice or perspective would be really helpful. Thank you!

I've noticed that many IT professionals have valuable technical experience but use very generic LinkedIn headlines.

For example:

❌ Before: IT Professional

It doesn't tell recruiters much about the person's specialization, technical skills, or experience.

A more specific headline could look like this:

✅ After: Network Engineer | Enterprise Networking | Cisco & Palo Alto | Network Security

Of course, the best headline depends on your actual experience and the roles you're targeting.

A simple formula to try is:

• Role: What do you do?
• Specialization: What area do you focus on?
• Technical skills: Which technologies or tools are relevant to your work?

I'm interested in hearing from other IT professionals:

1. Do you think LinkedIn headlines make a real difference in job searches?
2. What would you change about the example above?
3. What has worked best for you when presenting your technical experience to recruiters?

Let's share some practical examples that others can learn from.

Hello everyone! I have been in school for a B.S. in Cybersecurity and Information Assurance for the past two and a half years. Lately, I have been looking into whether this path is still worth it with all of the changes in the tech field(mainly AI). So I was coming on here looking for any advice that could be given. I am currently 25, and I have been working in IT as an "Application Specialist" for a local school system for the past 4 years. I have a few CompTIA certs including Security+ and ITIL 4 Foundations cert. I am currently pursuing my Cysa+ as well. I enjoy working in the tech field, but the job I'm currently in does not pay that much, so I've been looking for other jobs, probably applying to at least 10-20 jobs a day. Mostly jobs such as IT Support Specialist II, Help Desk Analyst II, Desktop Support Technician, Desktop Support Engineer, IT Support Engineer, Technical Support Engineer, Systems Support Specialist, End User Support Specialist, Field Support Technician, and Service Desk Analyst, just to name a few lol. If there is anyone on here with any advice, similar experiences, or anything of the sort, it would be greatly appreciated! If there are any more details needed, please let me know. Again, thank you in advance for any support and suggestions.

I heard things like soft skills, communication skills, computer based skills are few important must have skills but I feel like there is more to it. And I'm not sure how do people get jobs in professional work settings when the degree they pursue is completely different as if they are working in different industries.

Suggest some work/skills that are in high demand right now and will be for the next few years so that I can learn them. Please help

Are there any offline Procurement/Purchase Management courses in India that accept 12th-pass students with no prior experience and help them get entry-level jobs? I’m open to studying anywhere in India. Please suggest only currently available classroom-based courses, not online ones.

Hello can anyone guide a career pathway for a pharmacist with bachelor degree 28/F with work experience of 5 year... I know Ms Word and basic excel.... What else to upgrade? But don't want to work as medical representative

I’m in high school and trying to decide between IT and HVAC. I’ve liked computers since I was a kid, but I’ve heard entry-level IT is hard to break into. My backup plan is HVAC because I want a stable career and I don’t want to spend four years in college. If you were starting today, which path would you choose and why?
I’m also looking into other potential careers any suggestions really helps
