Career gap as software developer

If someone has close to 3 years experience as a software developer after completing B.tech and wants to pursue M.tech, but for some reason he could not clear the GATE exam and wants to join as a software developer after 1 year of preparation gap. I want to know what will be the impact of this while searching for a job after one year of preparation gap?

I'm currently a master's student will be graduating this year 2024 and placements have been very hard to us despite being in one of the premier institute of India. As working professionals what do you suggest me to tackle this situation also please do let me know if any of your companies are looking to hire a fresher. Already had a year gap after graduation for GATE preparation. Prefered roles : Software Development

Hello everyone,I am 2021 CS graduate.I was preparing for GATE exam for my mtech.But I couldn't perform well enough to get good college.I will probably get around 4000 rank this year.(I know this not good rank for general category and I won't get my desired college/course)I have very good conceptual understanding of CSE subjects like DS, algorithms, databases,and operating systems.But I haven't done any programming and any practical implementation of these.(I only have good btech project on my resume)I have decided to take upcoming TCS NQT to get my first job in IT field. So my main questions are :- 1)what should be my further direction from here ? 2)Should I take job or give GATE another attempt (along with job)? 3)Also please suggest how can I land my first job after gap of 1.5 years.?

I'm about to graduate as a B.Tech (CS) grad this year. I have a full time offer at the moment and joining is in June. My question is this: I hear from people to go for M.Tech after 1-2 years of industry experience. Is it a good decision to leave a job to do an M.Tech after atleast 2 years of working in the industry? And also will an M.Tech degree help my career in any way? Preferably in terms of better job opportunities in the future? I really want to understand more about this.

I started working around 2017 never upskilled enough to switch and realised my mistakes very late Would my past experience be an issue if I get into good colleges like IITs/IISc By the time I graduate I would be around 33-34 maybe ? Is it too late to get into GATE. I also can't afford to go to foreign masters degree. I am single so only parents are dependent on me. myquals: BE in CS from tier 3 college in Maharashtra. Any experienced advice is appreciated.

I'm from the cursed batch , 2024 which is about to end within 2 months , after I'll be at home with no placements in hand , it's all my fault coz I didn't study, I have just 7.02 cgpa and college didn't even shortlist my name , so instead of having a year gap , should I do mtech from local college so that side by side I can grind req skills Like there are 2 sides of this First one , having a gap (let's say 6 months) and trying hard off campus to crack a company. Second one , doing mtech from local college, and in that time period trying to get off campus, why off campus, it is obvious local college= no placement Now gate preparation also req time , and this year gate exam has already been done . So waiting for the next gate exam will be no point . Thanks in advance 🙏

Graduated in 2022. Working in the telecom software domain. I want to have the college experience again (COVID destroyed mine) and hoping get a salary jump as well. How are the courses and peers in the CSE department in these institutes? Is it worth preparing for GATE and leaving my job to join these institutes? Or is it better to skill up and switch?
