I am deeply grateful that this book has found its way into your hands. My sincere hope is that it becomes a guiding light on your career journey, helping you discover the diverse opportunities that surround you. May it inspire you, illuminate new possibilities, and provide a ray of hope as you navigate the challenges of finding success in your career. “Stepout is a journey of insights and observations seen through the window of industry experiences, offering a clear view into the realities, challenges, and opportunities that shape the professional lives of aspiring engineers and young professionals.”. This book Stepout is the culmination of my three decades of experience, during which I have worked in various capacities from Service Engineer to Service Head- all within the industry. Through these roles, I have gained a deep understanding of the challenges faced by inexperienced engineers entering in to the employment market as workforce. I have observed many students struggling to establish. themselves and navigate a clear career path after completing their engineering studies. This journey often resembles a marathon, as they transition from village to city, determined to meet societal expectations. Tragically, a significant number of these graduates become part of India’s growing unemployment crisis, highlighting systemic issues that demand urgent attention.
