@Redeemer_911 : bro i have always been a silent spectator on this thread, but i guess i may provide u some gyaan...!!!!
all these colleges are premier colleges including the new IIM's, and they are definitely witnessing robust placement, ( where 10-12 lakh is the average placements) that too at the start of your career , after 5/6 years you will be at a good position with a handsome package in corporate,
now let us look at the SSC jobs, despite of what people tell you about these jobs, it takes a lot of time to go up the ladder, and not all jobs give you money even the top jobs like examiner, ITI,EXCISE, CSS does not gaurantee money as it depends on a lot of factor like ur seniors, ur area , how many industries are in your area, what kind of industries , metro- non metro, etc. and there will always be a tension of getting caught by ED,CBI ( aaj kal toh vaise ye kaam aam aadmi party and anna ji kar rahe hain ) now let me give you two examples :
the good one->my uncle became Under secretary in 2012 after 16 years of service (he joined CSS) and he had to crack some papers too for it :/ , he was in urban development ministery ( so he has many a contact in realty sector , who keep wooing him to join their private companies with awesome designation and ofcourse, moolah - u see experience counts , bt sixteen years is such a long time :/ ) ,
the bad one->my grandfather joined central excise as an inspector and got retired as a custom supreintendent ( just one promotion in his whole career of 30 years :/ ) , but mind it he lived like a king ( before 90's ,custom people had their golden period , paisa and power , but globalisation proved a bane for them :/ but a boon for MBAs )
i have told you about the truth of illegimitate money above let us look at the legimitate ways,
the 7th pay commission will be set up in 2016 ( and mind it , their is no gaurantee that it will be as pay commissions have been delayed in the past ) , salary will ofcourse become awesome (if 7th pay commission comes) but it will take atleast 5 years ( quite a long tym :/ )
also there is a hullabaloo of cadre restructuring, that too for the last 10/12 years still there is no sign of it , :/
Now why i gave you such a long lecture ??? Well I have too got calls from 7 IIMs , XLRI , and hope to get some more from the so called IVY LEAGUE colleges of INDIA , and i was also in this dilemma shall i join SSC and start preparing for civil service or go for MBA , now you see if you have got a call it is your hardwork (99.99 % hardwork and smartwork ) + luck ( 0.01%) , if you leave this opportunity now , next year or any year, you will have your hard work and smart work but this 0.01 % luck may or may not prevail , :S , so my friend let us convert these golden calls , these are once in a life time opportunities , let us convert these , and ofcourse if we cannot then we always have the SSC, will prepare for UPSC then ... ...
Hope it will be helpful to you ...
