Here's what he can do next:

GATE exam: If he's up for it, cracking GATE can open doors to PSUs and even help with higher studies. Software skills: Tell him to brush up on AutoCAD, STAAD Pro, and Revit. These are super important in the industry now. Project Management: A PMP certification or even a course in project management can give him an edge. Specializations: He could look into specialized courses in areas like green building, structural engineering, or construction management. IITs offer some great short-term courses. Soft skills: Remind him to work on communication and teamwork. These matter a lot in big companies. Networking: He should join professional bodies like the Institution of Engineers (India) or attend industry events. It's all about connections, yaar! Online presence: A good LinkedIn profile can work wonders. He should showcase his projects and internships there. Government exams: If he's interested in the public sector, SSC JE or state PWD exams are good options. Higher studies: If he can, an M.Tech or MBA can boost his package significantly. Startups: Don't ignore the startup scene. Many are doing innovative work in construction tech.

Tell him to get mtech from iisc or good Iit.

In that mtech itself, work on new and existing softwares and explore the market for his cavity building in that field.
