Looking for an IT Job in Goa?

Nowadays its hard to see displays such as "We are hiring", "IT professionals wanted", "SOFTWARE PROGRAMMERS required urgently", "Web application developers requrired to work from Goa Location", etc...The question is are we having a good future prospects for IT professionals in Goa? Well for the past Goa has witnessed a very bad time for Computer Engineering graduates. Political leaders have changes, we have heard lots of talks, improvement thoughts on infrastructure, Big IT companies thinking of coming to Goa, IT parks and IT hubs making their way to Goa. Till today we are not seeing anything happening really though.  

Today we are having seven major institutes operating from Goa which are generating good enough resources to feed a solid IT base in Goa namely National Institute of Technology, Birla Institute of Technology and Science - BITS , Goa College of Engineering, Don Bosco College of Engineering, Fatorda, Agnel Institute of Technology and Design, Padre Conceicao College of Engineering,Shree Rayeshwar Institute of Engineering. I wonder where are the pass out graduates heading their way to? Hyderabad, Bangalore, Pune, Mumbai, Noida or Gurgaon? May be abroad? Finally everyone is looking for money.

Yes, thats the need and everyone is struggling to make more money. But how about creating the required job opportunities for all our Goan youngsters to work from Goa location itself? I am sure not just our Goan graduates but almost all the IT professionals from anywhere in the country would love to work from this peaceful and beautiful place. 

Some years back News about having an IT park and IT habitat  were flashing and no one knows what really went wrong with those ideas? Was it just the money making game for some of our beloved politicians? What about today? Should we be serious about it now are relax and watch what is going to happen.

Recently honorable Chief Minister made a statemenet which I would like to quaote here which appeared in Times of India, "I feel one thing is that investment promotion policy is moving ahead and we have formed investment promotion board also and we have cleared 38 projects which will fetch investment of over Rs 21,130 crore and would create employment of 6,500 slots. Besides this, I am seriously working on two IT projects, electronic city at Tuem and IT park at Chimbel. Particularly about Electronic System Design and Manufacturing (ESDM) at Tuem people from non-matriculate to graduate would be accommodated. I feel road, water supply, power all these amenities would be provided on sites in next five to six months. On May 23, we are putting IT policy in the public domain, we are inviting investors at the meet. I believe 70 companies will come for the workshop, Wipro (IT Company) will also come to Goa."

Now that's a ray hope which we should definitely look forward positively for a change. Never loose hope and say better late than never. 

We at GoITWay (www.goitway.com) are looking for this change to happen since lots of energy is here to deliver and we need more business coming up. Goa has seen changes happening with the new Government taking over and precisely also because having our great leader ex-cheif minister Shri Manoharji, taking over a more honored position at Government of India as Raksha Mantri joining hands with most capable honorable Prime minister Shree Narendra Modi. We know "Those days have gone" and for sure, "These days will also GO" Lets hope for the best.
