Hello Tanvi, it's nice to aim for government job but if I may ask then why government job? Okay. Let me explain. As per law government can not discriminate between students who pass out of IIT or from engineering colleges in remote places. Hence you will never find government coming to IIT or big colleges during placements. However government announces vacancies and gets these filled up through UPSC. Here any student who meets the criteria set, can apply, pass it and get job. As you can SEE it makes no difference as to from what college you have passed out. Hence if you want to government job, then learn whatever you can from your college staff. Ask them searching questions. Lear as best as you can. This only will help you in getting government job. Best wishes to you.
