Hi Laxmi,
The eligibility for the UPSC civil services exam is:
A degree of any of the universities incorporated by an Act of the Central or State Legislature in India or other educational institutions established by an Act of Parliament or declared to be a Deemed University under the UGC Act, 1956, or an equivalent qualification.
The candidates who have appeared or intend to appear for the qualifying examination and are awaiting results are also eligible to appear for the Preliminary Examination however, they are supposed to submit proof of passing the requisite qualification along with Detailed Application Form for Civil Services (Main) Examination.
As per these eligibility conditions, there is nothing mandatory as to pursue engineering to sit for UPSC examination.

Hi Dhiru,
The UPSC exam is divided into 3 stages: Prelims, Mains and Interview. The prelims stage has two objective papers based on Aptitude & General knowledge. The mains stage comprises of 8 written examination based on different subjects, and finally the interview stage. In order to reach the interview stage, you would need to qualify all the prior examination stages.
Moreover, the civil services mains examination is in written format and aims to test the academic talent and the ability of the candidate to present the answers in a clear and coherent manner. The examination is intended to assess the overall intellectual traits and depth and understanding of the candidates rather than merely the range of their information and memory.

Hi Dhiru,
Taking coaching for UPSC civil services exam is your personal call. A coaching institute can guide you initially how to prepare for the exam and equip you with right material and books which are needed in different stages of the exam like prelims, mains and interview. But today, a lot of free materials is available online which is more than enough to crack the prestigious exam. You can refer to free resources like Mrunal, Inisight IAS, Vision IAS, etc. In recent years, there have been many top ranking students in the examination, which did not go for any coaching but focussed on the basic material with the right strategy. So, at the end of the day, it will be your personal call.

Hi Anukriti,
These are two different courses. UPSC is a different set of ball game altogether. It requires utter patience and hardwork to clear UPSC exam. Becoming a RJ is not an easy job. You must have some basic qualities within you like the ability to talk on multiple topics simultaneously, talk with sense of humor, talk sensibly etc. But above all you must have a passion for radio jockeying.
But these are the raw materials you need to have for becoming an RJ. With these you have to process them for the final output. This process is training. Training for different skills required in practical life of a RJ. These skills includes soft skill, talking style, handling the listeners etc. And you also need a certificate from a reputed RJ training institute to prove your quality.
So, I hope you can understand that becoming an RJ is not an easy job. But if you try with passion then it is easier for you.
All the best.
