Dear Amit, Yesterday, I received your letter in which you were seeking my viewpoint on whether you should pursue college or job. I personally feel you should go after doing job. As per your skill set, doing job would be vital option rather than college, this will help you to gain practical knowledge of various subjects. Course content provided in college is usually theoretical which sometimes may become boring. In current job market, gaining practical knowledge is more important than academic degree. This fact you might have also observed in job vacancies. I feel you should try and make efforts to try for job in IT field probably near your area as this will provide you opportunity to learn latest technology, soft skill and gain expertise. Please let me know in case you need any assistance in this regard. Wishing you good luck for future endeavaors. Warm Regards, Saurabh Gulati
