Hi everyone,

I'm 28 years old and feeling completely lost about my career.

My qualifications: B.Tech in Mechanical Engineering from NIT Durgapur and M.Tech in Industrial Engineering & Management from NIT Trichy.

After graduation, I worked for 6 months as an Assistant Manager at City Union Bank but left because I wanted a technical career.

For the last 1.5 years, I've been preparing full-time for PSU and other government engineering exams. I've appeared for several exams, and recently I was rejected after the NPCIL Executive Trainee interview, which I had high hopes for.

Now I'm confused. I have a 1.5-year preparation gap, only 6 months of work experience, and I'm already 28.

To be honest, I'm not particularly passionate about mechanical engineering. I prepared for PSU exams mainly because I wanted a stable and respectable technical career. Now I'm unsure whether I should continue preparing for PSUs, try to enter the private sector, learn a new skill, or change my career path entirely.

If you were in my position, what would you do? Has anyone been through something similar and managed to turn things around? I'd really appreciate honest advice.
