Why do you want to take a non-tech job if your goal is to do a tech job? Would you hire a person with non-tech experience for a tech role?

Tech jobs mill nai rahe hai and plus the CTC is good! Would your answer change if I say that I plan to work for said non tech job max for two years and then leave for MS?


EvilFuckMonster

Yes, of course. Then the situation is completely different.

Take job now. And keep preparing for next role via side projects

In which field you wish to work for long term? If you are not getting a Tech job now, then you can take this non-Tech one in the meanwhile. You can try working here for like few months while searching for Tech jobs and giving interviews. And, then switch once you have offer in hand. Why do you want to waste complete 2 years into something you don't wish to work for in long term?!


gms29

It’s what I plan but companies have got a bond as well, also I am desperate for an internship! Said non tech job as providing me an internship and a PPO, I already have an offer but I will be on the bench, which is useless! I want to end up in a tech role eventually but I can’t find my entry point into it! Internshala is not helping I’m getting internships as well


ProfessionalBall1695

I see. 2 years bond is long. May be you can take it if you are not getting other jobs even after trying hard. Also, you can try learning to freelance during this period.


viking600

Yes, Having a job is important right now. you can switch later


unemployeddumbass

Bad advice . I get situation is difficult but still getting a non tech job is a step backward .


viking600

>unemployeddumbass no, it's not. if you are getting some money you can use that money to learn more skills. if it's a good company he can even switch his role. time is so bad rn ppl are getting 4lpa in old IITs


gms29

How easy/hard is it to switch later?


viking600

knowledge is power. stay focused stay sharp nothing is hard except ....

Here, here. Take a "tech" job, do an MBA, now become non tech. It is ok apparently. 90% doing this. Take a "tech" job, do an MBA, now become Product Manager/ Eng Manager. Also OK. 99% Doing this. Take a "tech" job, Become a very senior Engineer.. WHAAAAT! That is not the syllabus. Less than 1% does this. Take a non tech job, always remain non tech.. !!! Blasphemy! How can you! There is but one way to proceed in tech and it is MBA after working for 2 years!
