Feeling Stuck in Proposal Writing? Seeking Advice on Shifting to a Technical Career Path

I work as a Proposal Writer in an MNC, and I hold a postgraduate degree in Electronics and Communication. Since proposal writing was not the field I would have liked to enter, it happened by chance. Now, I want to shift my job into a complete technical domain. I have around 2 years of working experience but not in core IT. Please suggest options for me to find a shift in my job, and also let me know if there are any career-oriented programs that I need to enroll in. Thanks, Jeevan

Hi Jeevan,

Brush up on the latest technology or domain you are interested in and try to get into it. Undertake a course in the field you want to join and pursue job opportunities. The recession is ending, and you should be able to secure a decent job with a fair salary. Do not restrict yourself in terms of designation or salary (unless you have prior commitments). Aim to enter the industry first and then plan your future steps accordingly.

All the best. Remember, your attitude, enthusiasm, and what you can contribute to the company (rather than focusing solely on what they can offer you) will help you succeed.
