Profile Evaluation and Job opportunities in Germany


In the recent times I get lot of requests from many people, who see my answers in Quora or my blog posts, etc., Most of them ask me to evaluate their profile and suggest them universities. If you are also looking out for any profile evaluation services or suggestions, then this blog is for you. 

The main questions are:
  1. Can you please evaluate my profile and tell me if I can get an admit?
  2. Can you please suggest me some universities for "so and so" course?
  3. What are the job opportunities after completing the course?



I have answered so many students with these same questions. From my experience, majority of them wanted the following answers:

  1. Yes! Your profile is good and you will get into TU universities
  2. You have to apply only to these "5" universities and you will get an admit for sure.
  3. You will definitely get job and your field is very good. 
These are the respective answers that most of them expect, but on the contrary these are my honest answers for the above mentioned questions:
  1. No one can really evaluate your profile, maybe we can tell based on our experience; but that isn't the final call. Also, no one can tell whether you will get admit or not because we do not work in the admission committee.

    I have seen guys with just 75% marks getting into TU9 universities and also the guys with 90% not getting an admit. It is just that, you need to modify and polish your SOP and other application documents in such a way, that it convinces the admission committee to choose your application.
  2. When you complete your Bachelor's studies, you maybe into ECE, CS, Mech, IT, EEE, EIE, etc., And you would have studied at least 40 subjects in those course. When it comes to Masters, you can find departments which are focused on each of those 40 subjects.

    For eg: If you are asking for the best courses in CS field, I can give you 400 different types of courses which specializes in the field which you may not even heard of; it is always better to do your own research and apply.
  3. Moving over to the Job opportunities part, no one can predict whether you will get job after your course or not. We are not astrologers, we are engineers. Each and every field has job opportunities, it depends on you to work hard and obtain the necessary skills for the job. There is no point in asking someone else regarding your career.

    One more thing to add, the German universities are not dumb to have a course which doesn't have job opportunities. 
Job prospects in Germany
This post is not meant to hurt someone, but just to enlighten all those who are applying for their higher studies. Even I have been in your place and gone through all the frustrations and helplessness.

  1. Aravind,can you please write an article about studienkollegs in Germany , and its relevance (or the lack thereof) for MS aspirants.

    Thanks.
    Abhi.

How difficult is it going to be?

Moving to a new country, which has different kind of weather, different orientation of traffic, different cultural background, which is far away from HOME is going to be really difficult. I have been there, done that and this article is a summary of my experience in Germany. UNIVERSITY/COURSE: It is going to difficult for you to adapt to the method of teaching in German universities, where the lectures takes place with the help of presentations(PPT) by the Professor, which will be later passed on to you as NOTES. You will not be spoon-fed with the topics and the professors will not care for your grades. Their job is just to teach you the concepts and evaluate your understanding of the same. In most of the classes, there won't be any "attendance" taken and literally no one cares whether you attend the lectures or not. Also, the question paper will vary every semester; for example exam-1 will have total of 80 marks and the duration will be 2 hours, whereas exam-2 wi...

Germany VS Singapore Deciding a path to choose, when you have lot of options in hand is very difficult. When you are applying for Masters studies, there would be a lot of confusion in terms of which country to apply for and there was a question in Quora regarding Germany VS Singapore. Trust me, even I was in the same dilemma when I wanted to pursue my Masters course. Let me throw some light on the analysis that I had done, based on my experience in Germany(Masters studies) and my observations from my friends who are studying in Singapore. Climate:   Are you a person who likes Winters to be cold(around 0 degree Celsius)? Are you a person who likes to just have 2 months of Summer? If you’re from a tropical country, then there is high possibility that you will not like Germany’s climate, but on the other hand Singapore has similar tropical conditions, which makes it easier to adapt.  Winner:  Singapore Course duration:  Most of the courses...
