1.     General faq

1.1     How is the IT field?

""Market is good or bad, we should get a good job"", we are in need of a good job which should be pertinent to our qualification. Always fresher should keep this mentality. Market is really very good. We need not worry about market status. Keep on trying till you get a good job. Do fight with your job hunting. Surely you will win.

1.2     Do we need to study any mainframe/ testing/ .NET, etc?

For fresher, absolutely no need for computer courses. More practice in Quantitative analysis , C , C++ is more than sufficient to clear the software test papers also the recruiters do not expect professional experience from the fresh graduates. A good guidance is hundred times better than a computer course.

If you are graduated before 2004 and if you feel that you don’t have sufficient knowledge in any of the software languages, try to join some computer courses like testing/ mainframe/ .NET, meanwhile u can try similar projects at your lab or home so that you can include it as a work experience even though you are not employed anywhere. This is a tip given by the expertise because in many of the interviews, the candidate will not be asked about the work experience rather he will be asked technically.

1.3     Some of the easy ways to get call from the mnc’s

One more point, Every Wednesday, follow "Economic Times or Times of India"(Bangalore openings) and "The Hindu"(Chennai openings) without fail.  There you can find more opportunities.
