hi navakanth it depends on your interest want to earn much then software,or else core side u can chose either vlsi or embedded as far as i know in India we are have good firms in vlsi and embedded

regarding vlsi courses join some verilog,systemverilog course in bangalore or hyderabad but its expensive

hi krishna thnx for your reply

being a Post graduate student i ll prefer core side but when you think about job in core side embedded systems also come into play along with VLSI

so it is hard for me to decide correct path when considering job oppurtunites we have to consider time period also for training and

in VLSI jobs every company is preferring min of 2+yrs experience

Hi Navakanth,

I think you are mistaken there are many VLSI (FPGA/ASIC) companies recruiting freshers...
Many of them are B-tech (You are a M-Tech Holder)...

But i am not sure that you will get in the design field... Because many of the freshers will get jobs in the testing or in the application field....

If you are taking the B-tech or M-tech from IIT then the chance for getting in the design field is more...

Try to keep the core field....

Best of Luck

can you list some of the companies which are taking freshers

Some of my friends are working these companies, they were freshers.., Companies like Cypress, Netlogic, NVDIA, APACHE, National Instruments, Wipro VLSI, TATA Elexi, etc... But most of them are in the testing and application field...

We have only B-tech degree in the Electronics and Communication branch only...

Me also joined as a fresher in my company as a digital design engineer (FPGA system design)...

So the opportunity are more.....

If you are interested in Embedded you can select that or select the VLSI

All the best
