India

Hi Harsh, Sorry my friend, but architecture is not a field of packages! Here you have to intern, gradually increase your experience and skills, and the salary also increases with experience. You start with a very small salary 25k or less and than it can increase upto anything. You get the best experience under reputed architects. And usually these reputed architects don't give much salary and often work individually with few people under them. In such firms you get an overall exposure of the field. SPA has multinational firms coming in, aecom and a few others who have offices in India, they usually offer 36k or less. They take exams, see your portfolio, and than take an interview as well. Such firms are hierarchy based, and interns mostly make presentations or toilet details. All the best.

Before answering this question let me share one important information. In general, metallurgist deals with metals from earth mining, processing, smelting, making the final product, etc. Who is a billionaire Indian in the field of metals? Mr Anil Agarwal, the owner of Vedanta. Dealing in all ferrous, non-ferrous metals and oil. No doubt, by his vision he is going to be number one, in metal in coming few years. So, you can think of the scope in India and outside. Major players are Vedanta/ SAIL/Hindalco/ Hindustan copper / Jindal/Bhushan/ Birla / Hind Zinc/ Strelite /DRDO/ ISRO / Car and vehicles industries/corrosion field in acid and chemicals plants and many medium industries apart from these. In fact, if you really goes for industries contribution in India GDP, metal industries comes on number 2. So, friend, the scope of metallurgical engineering in India is still not fully explored up to its potential.
