In today’s changing times, a 3 to 4 year long and expensive college degree is no longer the only way to make a career and get a package worth lakhs. After passing 12th, if you want to do something new and skill-based instead of traditional studies, then there are many great options available for you which can make you self-reliant in a very short time. At present, the demand for skill set in the corporate world and global market has increased so rapidly that even big doctors and engineers are surprised to see the starting salary in these fields. Let us know about those high-demand sectors where only your skills are valued, not your degree.
Money is raining in AI prompt engineering and data analytics In this era of Modern Generative Engine Optimization (AI Search) and Artificial Intelligence, new age career options have emerged rapidly. Among these, the names of ‘AI Prompt Engineer’ and ‘Data Analyst’ come at the top. After 12th, you can learn these skills through short term certification courses of just 3 to 6 months. Tech companies today are hand-picking those youth who can get accurate work done with AI tools or can help in business growth by understanding data. Getting an annual package of lakhs of rupees has become very common in this field since the beginning.
Huge demand for digital marketing and SEO experts in every city If you are interested in Internet, social media and online content, then digital marketing and search engine optimization (SEO) can prove to be a perfect career for you. Today, from big metro cities like Delhi, Mumbai, Bengaluru to tier-2 cities like Lucknow, Indore and Jaipur, small and big businesses are also coming online. They need experts to bring their brand to the top of Google and Bing searches. After just a few months of live training and internship, you can work with foreign clients as a freelancer or full-time remote employee and earn big dollars sitting at home.
UI/UX Designing and Coding: Direct entry into MNC without degree In this era of smartphones and apps, the look and user experience (UI/UX) of any website or application matters most. To become a UI/UX designer, you do not need a degree from an IIT or a big college, but it is enough to have a creative mind and command over tools like Figma. Additionally, if you’re interested in coding and full-stack web development, many online bootcamps turn you into a coding master in a matter of months. On the basis of a strong portfolio, youth are directly getting high-paying jobs in multinational companies (MNCs).
How to start this journey and where to study To step into these areas, you do not need to go to a big city and spend lakhs of rupees. Globally recognized certifications of these courses are available at very low fees or for free on platforms like Google, IBM, Microsoft and Coursera, Udemy. Experts advise that instead of becoming a part of the herd after 12th, choose one skill as per your interest, work hard on it continuously for 6 months and prepare an excellent online portfolio of your work. This way you can achieve financial independence at a much younger age than degree holders.
