We need to stop romanticizing the endless pursuit of government exams like UPSC or Sub-Inspector roles without a solid backup plan. Every year, lakhs of talented graduates, even those with professional degrees like ECE or teaching credentials, spend their prime years studying for exams with incredibly low success rates. While ambition is great, putting your life on hold and refusing to look at private sector or entry-level roles is a massive mistake. The skills gained during exam prep: analytical thinking, discipline, and vast knowledge: are highly transferable. Yet, so many refuse to pivot because they consider non-government jobs 'lesser' or hate coding. It is time we normalize taking entry-level corporate jobs and building a realistic career path instead of facing unemployment at 26 with zero work experience. #careers #education #economics https://thoxt.com/l/hs7yRZ 🔗
