such article provides information about Career Guidance, Choices, Job Opportunities, Salary and Skills Required in the field of Electronics and Communication for ECE, MSc students to make a successful career. Electronics and Communication is one of the old and best course in the field of engineering. Electronics and Communication covers a vast area in the field of engineering. It is not possible for a person to become an expert in all the fields. So one should choose one or two areas of interest from the list of sub fields given below, which is close to your heart. Also, to keep you updated about latest technologies and inventions in this domain, go through IEEE articles. Now a days, a lot of Engineers after completing ECE, opt for IT Jobs. Electronics engineers who opt for IT job
starting as a carrier in ec field:
Engineers and M.tech Electronics students get placed by companies during campus placement or during walk ins conducted directly by companies or by consulting firms. Since the no of openings for freshers in the field of Electronics and Communication is far less compared to the no of students passing out every year, it's very important to get placed during campus recruitment and cross your first hurdle in your career. Students can opt for higher studies if you don't get placed during campus recruitment. Even if you get placed, to get noticed for your work as a fresher and get promoted is difficult, because companies hire freshers in large numbers. So to give an additional boost to your career, it is good to have MS in Electronics and Communication. We will discuss about advantages of Higher Education in later sections.
placement during campus recruitment: Placement's takes place during penultimate year or final year of the course. If you didn't get placed during campus recruitment, try to get jobs via consultancies or during off Campus recruitment. Placements are done in two stages. In the first stage there will be Aptitude Test and Technical Test. So you should be well trained in aptitude test. Technical Test will be mainly based on Electronics Circuits, Communication, Microprocessor and digital electronics . You should try out executing Microprocessor programs rather than learning from book. This helps you to get hand on experience and help you to answer questions on troubleshooting, execution methodology and program solving skills.in addition to this they have also face a gd or pi interview session.
