Hi,
After BCA, scope of getting a government job is very low. If you are quite good in programming, You may apply in CRIS. All IT based activities are performed by CRIS, rest other software are designed by TCS/WIPRO but you wont be considered a Gov employee. I did BCA. But Later I Switched to Government exams. Currently I am preparing for SSC. So its upto you if you could mend your ways if you want a Government Job.
Also, you can apply for UPSC OR PSC. Also there is AFCAT(AIRFORCE COMMON ADMISSION TEST), CDSE(Combined Defence Service Exam) which falls in UPSC, Civil Services, Sub-Inspecter post in POLICE. Its your choice which government you wanna serve State or Central. If you have a degree you can go for any government jobs that has vacancies. I just named a few above but you can apply for any of the government jobs available.

The placements for NIT-MCA are one of the best in the country. Students have bagged offers as high as 60 LPA and the placement percentage usually remains between 90% to 100%. However, this does not mean that you will get an offer in 7 digits salary. Placement packages vary from company to company.
Simply speaking, if you have studied at least what was taught in the class, have cgpa good enough to satisfy the Eligibility criteria of the companies, you have fair chances of getting a good enough job offer.
The MCA course at IIT Roorkee has sadly been discontinued since last year. Last few batches of MCA are going to pass out in the next couple of years. Still I am going to answer the question assuming a hypothetical situation where in the course may get restarted next year.
The placements are a mixed bag. Most companies do not know about the MCA course and hence do not open it. It is up to the placement representative of the MCA batch to educate the Central Placement Team guys about MCA and get as many companies to be opened as possible. You do get to sit for some of the top companies like MS, Amazon, Directi, Inmobi Symantec, Nvidia. I believe even Google opened up this year. So if you have worked hard, you can make something out of it.
I think this completes your question. Please let me know if you want to know anything else.
All the best.

Hi,
In Data warehousing and Analytics, lack of standard certifications have made it very hard for recruiters to identify "A" league professionals from impostors. When the topic of certification comes, there are basically two questions, why to get certified and how and what to get certified. I would first answer what and then answer why.
Irrespective of technology, The Data Warehousing Institute (TDWI) has been a provider of Certified Business Intelligence Professional (CBIP) certification where professionals can choose their core skills and appear for the exam that suits the same. The flip side that professionals see to it is that it's not associated with any product in specific and just theory can be good at Architect profile but at career levels where professionals need to implement solutions this might not be able to impress recruiters with this certifications.
Being a Microsoft patron, I would discuss about certifications related to MS BI. Microsoft has recently introduced two certifications for Data Warehousing and Business Intelligence.
All the best.

B.Sc is a good course in computer science but if any student wants to do MCA after B.Sc in computer science, it is a better option as compared to M.Sc in computer science. This is because in MCA, a student learns more application-based program, learn more about this field. After MCA one can get better job scope in MNCs or any government jobs. The correspondence course is also a better option to do as at the same time, a student can also prepare for various competitive exams and continue their study in Masters. There are many good colleges which offer MCA course through correspondence such as Sikkim Manipal University, Amity University, SRM, VIT, KIIT, LPU and many other. They also have a good placement record. So, joining MCA course after B.Sc is not a bad decision. After completing MCA course, one can get a job with at least a salary package of Rs. 4 Lacs per annum and it increases with the time duration and experience.

Hello,
Travel and tourism courses could be divided into different perspectives. One is regular education by obtaining Degree / Diploma or post graduation or MBA. Here, degrees are awarded by regular universities after following prescribed and authorised pattern of learning. In such scenarios, UGC guidelines are available for qualifications of prospective teachers. These need to have adhered strictly. On the other hand, there are courses outside this setup and such courses are endorsed by respective professional bodies. Such courses vary in duration from a couple of weeks and months to about a year. They invariably teach practical oriented patterns which are very useful to raw recruits. In such domain, practical experience in that particular domain and expertise is what is required to obtain the position of a faculty.
Majority of institutions and courses follow the second pattern and hence prospective faculties need to have experience in the domain for becoming a faculty.

QA is all about finding bugs before they get to the customer. Companies that make mission-critical or life-saving software, of course, take bugs very seriously and invest heavily in finding them. These are good QA jobs.
There are also commercial software companies that are ISO 9001 certified for software development and who develop high-quality software because their customers are willing to spend the extra money to pay for software that has been carefully tested. Companies that push software out the door as fast as possible because the software has new features already sold and promised ahead of time usually have very poor QA. These are bad QA jobs. These too are good QA jobs.
However, there is a light at the end of the tunnel. The new push toward Test-Driven Development (TDD) puts the responsibility for quality back onto the workers who should be responsible for it: the developers. If they can't write software with built-in quality tests, then they must push back on software engineering managers to prototype.
