Indian Engineering Services remains the most sought-after career for the engineering graduates in India. Engineering Services Examination commonly known as ESE is conducted annually by UPSC to recruit engineers of four domains i.e. Civil, Mechanical, Electrical and Electronics & Telecommunications for the Techno –Managerial posts. The examination constitutes a two-stage written examination followed by an interview. ESE is considered as one of the toughest examinations in India due to fewer posts and high competition. Owing to highly competitive selection procedure, IES officers carry high respect and status and are mandated to manage and execute activities in diverse technical and managerial fields.

These candidates after the final selection are posted in various Ministries and Departments of GOI such as Railways, Telecom, Border Roads, CPWD, CWC, CPES, NHAI, Naval Armaments, IDSE, MES, Ordnance Factories etc., however, they can move to any cadre, organisation, agency, department, ministry or PSU of the Government of India. All these final selected candidates are designated as class-1 officers.

 Since ssc je makes you a junior engineer and you have already done BE in Civil engineering so I would recommend you to prepare for IES only. Further I would suggest you to take a look on its syllabus which very briefly given on the internet and it is within your reach.

For coaching classes I would suggest you to visit some coachings yourself only and then decide which one to choose.

I hope my answer have helped you and hope you do well in future.

Greetings Aishwarya!

Hope you're doing great.

Both the colleges either IES or WeSchool Welingkar offers Post Graduation Diploma(PGDM) in Media and Entertainment. Indian Education Society is one of India's oldest Public Charitable Trusts committed to education and successfully running 67 Institutions. IES Management College and Research Centre (IESMCRC) is recognized as a premier business school, committed to academic excellence and value-based education. Armed with proficient and experienced faculty members and state-of-the-art academic infrastructure, IES MCRC provides an excellent environment for research and development activities. On the other hand, Founded in 1888, Shikshana Prasaraka Mandali is one of the pioneers of educational societies in Maharashtra. 

Eligibility Criteria: To take admission into any of the above mention school, the student needs to have minimum 50% marks in his/her graduation and should give CMAT, CAT, XAT or ATMA exam.

Infrastructure and Faculty: While comparing the infrastructure and faculty facilities provided at the campus. No doubt, Welingkar Institute comes out with flying colours. The building is amazing and gorgeous in Welingkar campus. Close proximity to metropolitan cities is the reason why this institute attracts some of the best minds across the nation.

Both colleges offer PGDM degree which is a two-year diploma course equivalent to master's level course in India.

Fee and Placements: The course fee for Media and Communication at Welingkar is somewhere around 5.5 lac per annum +2 lac (hostel+mess+library) but, the college has a very decent ROI, the average salary at the college is 7.75 lac CTC and highest salary is close to 10 lac CTC. Whereas in the case of IES institute the course fee is 5.3 lac per annum. The student can expect an average salary around the same to Welingkar. However, the highest package is offered more frequent in Welingkar compare to IES. 

Hope this will help. Do reach out in the comment section below if you need any help.
