This book “Become an Engineer, Not just an Engineering Graduate” is written with the aim of encouraging engineering graduates to be passionate engineers, help them enhance their employability potential and enable them to sculpt their career as exuberant engineers. Need of the hour is not just the IT professionals, but exuberant engineers who have the courage to confidently take-on the technological challenges of today and tomorrow. We need engineers and scientists who can understand the ground reality, with grass roots exposure, clarity of basic engineering concepts and ability to put all these together and think in a collective perspective to find technical solutions to all the haunting social problems. This book is written by a leading blogger and career coach with over a decade of experience who has taken his own career like a grand experiment, transitioning from core electronics engineering to human resources to blogging to public speaking to corporate training to career consulting and coaching.
