This document discusses career possibilities for graduate and post-graduate science students taking time off before further study. It identifies research opportunities, public service opportunities, and industry post-graduate opportunities as potential options. Research opportunities often require networking to find unposted positions, while public service organizations typically don't advertise openings widely. Industry jobs allow developing skills, experience, and field knowledge in a professional environment. The conclusion states that while many career options exist, students are often unaware of jobs and unprepared for interviews, so training and awareness of its importance is needed.

2. INTRODUCTION
Many students consider taking time off prior to starting a graduate or
post graduate program. Taking time off can allow you to develop
professional maturity, build your experience, and explore a field you have
always been interested in. Before searching for PG opportunities you
need to evaluate a few things
1. How much time are you planning on taking off? When do you
hope to start a graduate program?
2. Why are you interested in specific graduate program or field of
study? What are your career goals with the graduate degree
3. What types of post graduate experience will allow you to gain
additional skills / experience that will strengthen your graduate
school application.
3. CONTENT
Based on our individual circumstances there are multiple possibilities are
given below
Research opportunities

by contacting faculty members at colleges and universities or
investigation research being done at companies in your field of
interest. You need to be willing to move beyond only searching for
posted opportunities. Networking can be extremely important when
trying to move into a research position.
Public Service Opportunities
Many students find success directly contacting a non-profit
agency or NGO that interests them, or networking with people who
are working in a specific area of interest to learn more
opportunities available. These organizations generally do not have
a lot of funds for advertising their openings and typically do not
have the staff of funds available for travel to campus to meet with
the student.
4. Industry-post graduate opportunities
There are many extent full time job opportunities in a variety
of that will allow you to develop different skills sets, experience
working with others in a professional work environment and build
your knowledge in specific fields.
CONCLUSION
There are so many careers possibilities of trained graduate
and post graduate students. But the students do not aware about the
jobs. Also the students are not well trained for appearing interviews
for jobs. The awareness about the importance of training should
known by each student.
