Only those with a very strong objective of research go for higher studies immediately..rest leave it for 'one or two years after working'. Now that we're 2 years old in the industry we start questioning the need for higher studies and the complete change that it requires in our lifestyles of branded jeans to digi cams from motorazors to cars. Basically I think one needs to understand ones interests - financial success or research/mental progress. Tough question and most of us want both...so for this category the best is to pursue our present 'comfortable jobs' and do all those things on our own.<BR/>As to what I have learnt in my 2 years of industry exp is that we're not doing something great compared to the non-IT people but are getting paid well and well, thats what matters rite ?!<BR/>sudhirskiwithoutabloggeraccountAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30242316.post-1152168281140521342006-07-06T12:14:00.000+05:302006-07-06T12:14:00.000+05:30Good topic to discuss.It's there in everybod's min...Good topic to discuss.It's there in everybod's mind about "why have i bcome s/w enginner".But to find some changes in this field selected, many are planning to go back to their studies which we somehow wanted to come out of it during schooldays..What a contrast.<BR/><BR/>It u take my case, I got attracted to Mtech, CAT, and now GRE..Not very sure to do on any of these..<BR/><BR/>The final mantra is njoy where ever u are..So "har pal yahaa jee bhar jiyo"...."kal ho naa ho"..<BR/>So, njoying all the onsite opputunities and almost decided to be in the state of inertia of being s/w eng....Harishhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00287818802623806385noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30242316.post-1152163427136003402006-07-06T10:53:00.000+05:302006-07-06T10:53:00.000+05:30Hey Sandeep,Congratulations on completing 2 yrs as...Hey Sandeep,<BR/>Congratulations on completing 2 yrs as a Software Professional.. <BR/><BR/>Indeed, its been a different experience than what we had expected..
