  • Even for civil engineering graduates also there are chances to get jobs in the IT field. The IT recruiters never insist on only IT or CSC. If there are cany campus interviews you can attend and if you got selected you can join in that job.
    Alternatively, you place your CV on naukri.com and timesjobs .com. They will send daily notifications for various posts. You can apply and if you perform well in the interview you will get a job.
    Some times some companies will be announcing walk-in interviews. You can attend these interviews and you may get selected.
    If any of your friends are working in the IT industry, you can share your bio-data and them
