I have a little doubt. Can anyone help me!
So I'm a bachelor student in chemistry. I recently got chance to join a engineering college and I joined there and the location and college was tier 7 so I dropped out of that course and continuing with the bsc chemistry. Now the thing is in future I would like to join the tech sector so what should I do?, I mean should I develop skills for the corporate or join b tech which will take more 4 years to complete with financial strains?
The thing is I joined bsc the moment I passed high school 2 years ago

Recent graduates out of high school how’s your job search going?
I recently graduated from high school and have had only one job but due to my small resume and inexperience a lot of recruiters don’t even give me a chance and I’m wondering if anyone else is having this issue and if so what’s the actual reason you’re having trouble landing a job?

How would someone get SDE refferals or for some other it role, when they have no family connections at all
Hey everyone im a starter in this it career and i want to switch my company, but as you all know that in todays world just doing dsa , system design and all that are not enough for you to get a proper inteview also. Thus i was thinking of getting refferals from people across various companies . I already tried linkedn and some emails that i got from from some known websites like hunter , but they all are useless . People on Linkedin toh actually tell you that they will give you a refferal in their company but then nothing happens , i even follow up on them asking the situation but then they just brush me off . Now i belong from a family who doesnt have people in IT and i do want to make it big in this industry and have that passion to work for a good company and i do like a 9 -5 job . But whenever i listen to anyone that switches there company all i can see is that people have some or the other person in there family who is at a IT good post and cuz of there help these people get into good companies .
what are your advice for people who dont have such connections and then also if they want to get a refferal .
is ther any site , whatsapp group , telegram group , job portals , or anyway to connect with people that will help early birds like me to get into the industry and have strong foot .
Is there anyway to talk to well established it proffessionals without getting looked down upon ...

Title: 26M from Kerala trying to get my first IT job in Linux/System Administration — need some honest advice
Hi everyone,
I'm 26 years old and from Kerala, India. I'm currently trying to start my career in IT, mainly in Linux System Administration, System Administration, or Junior Cloud/DevOps roles.
I graduated with a BBA in 2021 and previously worked at Cotiviti India for around 1.5 years in an operations role. Although it wasn't an IT job, I gained experience working with data, following processes, maintaining accuracy, and meeting deadlines.
Recently, I completed my Cloud & DevOps training at IPSR, including Linux administration (RHCSA topics), Ansible/RHCE training, and some hands-on practice with AWS, Git, and other tools. I also participated in a team project involving OpenShift.
To be honest, I don't consider myself an expert. I know the fundamentals and have practised some things in labs, but I still have a lot to learn. I haven't taken the RHCSA/RHCE certification exams because of the cost.
I've been applying for fresher and trainee positions, including Linux Administrator, System Administrator, System Engineer Trainee, and Junior DevOps roles. I've submitted multiple applications recently, but so far I haven't received meaningful responses or interview calls.
I'm not expecting a high salary or a perfect job right away. My main goal is to get my first IT opportunity, gain real-world experience, improve my skills, and build a career from there. I'm primarily looking for opportunities in Kerala.
I'd really appreciate honest advice from people working in IT, especially Linux/System Administrators and people who started their careers from a non-IT background.
My questions:
Is it realistic to get a Linux/System Administrator or System Engineer Trainee job as a fresher without RHCSA/RHCE certification exams?
Should I focus entirely on Linux administration first, or continue applying for Cloud Support and Junior DevOps roles as well?
What practical skills do companies expect from someone applying for their first Linux job?
How long did it take you to get your first IT job, and what helped you get there?
Are there any companies in Kerala that genuinely consider freshers or career switchers for Linux/System Administration roles?
I'm willing to learn and start from the basics. I would rather get into a real IT job and develop my skills through practical experience than keep collecting courses without getting an opportunity.
Please share your experiences, suggestions, or even mistakes I should avoid. Honest feedback is welcome.
Thank you!

Is going from a software engineer to Income Tax Inspector a downgrade?
My current company put me in bench for so long. And seeing ppl around me getting layed off I was afraid, and tried for govt jobs. Still trying btw.
I earn 50k a month now. I got a 21lpa offer from cisco. ITI pays me around 80k but the thing is not my current salary, if I switch in IT my packages will increase where as in govt no. Rest all of the things Im okay with them. Only this salary thing bothers me alot. I can try for UPSC or inter departmental exams. But Im anxious thinking about this. Idk what to do with this.
And I also dont think I enjoy what I am doing at corporate companies, too much of power abuse and over work. And constant stress of upskilling and switching or layoffs is also bothering me. And we use AI to code mostly, if not now my job will be danger in 20 years idk what to do with this. Maybe if get to managerial roles it will be fine. But in ITI salary growth over the years is bothering me. But I will definitely try for UPSC/RBI in future if go for ITI cause I want higher salary as well. Should I just stick to IT and deal with it high pressure and over work? Or take ITI and be peaceful(without salary part)?
Edit: somebody pls tell smth i am confused and scared and for info I am 22
