Telecommunications

The module on telecommunications is designed to assess graduates from various engineering backgrounds such as B. Tech. in Electronics Engineering, Electronics & Communication Engineering and Electronics & Telecommunication Engineering on their knowledge of analog and digital transmission, microwave engineering and electromagnetism. The questions in this test are a mix of theoretical, numerical and conceptual based ones.manufacturing radio equipment and electronics, sectors of digital TV, satellites, computer networking, etc., assess candidates with this test for the role of Electronics Engineer.

Industries dealing in manufacture and services of electronics consumer goods and appliances, private companies manufacturing radio equipment and electronics, sectors of digital TV, satellites, computer networking, etc., assess candidates with this test for the role of Electronics Engineer.

The role of an electronics engineer is critical to the workings of a company he works with. The key skills and competencies that employers look in him/her are: excellent problem-solving skills, decision-making abilities, effective communication skills, and good organizational and management skills.

Problem-solving skills

Electronics engineers should be good problem solvers. In day-to-day working life, they encounter capacity problems in power, communications and information technology systems. They collect data to identify immediate solutions.

Decision-making skills

They need strong decision-making skills to ride over difficult situations. Often they have to decide, for example, which electrical codes, standards and guidelines need to be applied when designing electrical systems for construction, manufacturing, processing and electrical generation projects.

Effective communication & Interpersonal skills

Electrical and electronics engineers should possess strong interpersonal skills. They have to coordinate and integrate their work with project teams including co-workers, colleagues, consultants and others. They must maintain positive working relationships with all stakeholders related to their work.

Computer Skills

Electronics engineers should have good IT skills to fast-track their projects. They need to have good knowledge of word processing and graphics software, how to use a database, a spreadsheet and financial software. Knowledge of programming or systems and software design, computer-assisted design, manufacture or machining and communications software is also essential.

Job Task Planning and Organizing

Electrical and electronics engineers plan their daily work as per project schedules and deadlines. They need to possess effective time-management skills to produce high-quality work within approved budgets and timelines.

Tips to Improve

• Brush up the basics
  Being thorough with the basics always pays up, so brush up your basics well before making a plunge. An electronics engineer should possess an excellent knowledge of electronic devices and RF, analogue, digital and CMOS design. Expertise in VLSI, VHDL, FPGA and ASIC design, signal processing, control systems, industrial manufacturing systems, power transmission, simulation and verification techniques is essential. Familiarity with HDL, C and C++ languages and domain knowledge of microprocessors, control systems, embedded systems, and circuit and device testing are also needed.
• Make use of your internship
  An internship to build something is essential, as it offers plenty of learning about the industry, job and their expectations. There is no alternative to on-the-job research. You might even get an offer to join the same company.
• Keep abreast of the industry trend
  You need to be conversant with global trends and researches done worldwide. This would help you keep ahead of competition. Join a professional society and participate in seminars and workshops, subscribe to important trade media journals and newsletters to get a grip of where the electronics industry is heading.
• Acquire practical knowledge
  Try to be part of any live project that follows the recent sector trend. The training will enable you to handle different types of machines and instruments used in both wired and wireless communication.

All said and done, it's your future. The decision you will make and the care that you will put will finally help shaping your dream.
