Defence Jobs


Probably, there could be no job more prestigious than defending you own motherland, the soil that gave birth to you, grew you up and one day consume you in its laps. It is a matter of huge respect and fortune to be serving the Indian Defence. Basically, it is divided into three wings: the army, the navy and the air force. The Indian Army is basically entrusted with protecting the borders of the country, as the long borders are to be properly protected from alien forces. The Indian navy not only protects the naval base and keeps the sea-line open and safe in all times so as to promote trade and safeguard the marine affairs, it also has to look after the sustained development of the island territories that are situated far away from the mainland. The Indian Air force has been serving the country since six decades by raiding the skyline and keeping us protected while we fly from one place to the other. IAF is a sophisticated and hi-tech wing which not only interests in the safeguard of the skylines but also provides extensive relief operations to places wherever and whenever needed.

The fact that is quite disheartening is the loss of interests in Indian youngsters for the defence jobs. Anyway, the generally known way of entering into defence is by appearing in the UPSC examinations conducted by NDA. Any high school graduate can also study engineering through technical exams and study engineering before he is posted as an officer. There are quite a handful of opportunities to grow according to one’s skills. They have golf, aero-modeling, wind surfing, astronomy etc to suit their lines of expertise.

A graduate can enter the defence jobs by giving the combined defence service examinations, they are further trained by bases in Dehradun and Chennai, and then they can be permanent officers. The Engineering graduates under Technical graduate scheme can join the defence when they are in the last year of their program, and have the facility of joining directly as captains when completed with their degree.

Women’s entry in the defence jobs has become equally tough and popular, and the history has stated them performing quite hand to hand with their male counterparts. Their entry is also in the hands of the Selected Service Scheme, once admitted they can serve unto 14 years after completion of their training.

Though the glamour of the private organizations attract youngsters, the defence has been popularizing and developing the services by making it more attractive with higher pay scales, faster promotions, better accommodations and so on. The major fact in working with defence along with the pride of serving your motherland is the disciplined way to lead your life. Working in the private sectors often zap the energy out of the people in a very young age and makes them suffer with anxiety and stress related problems, it is the healthy and effective way to lead your life is what the army has to offer at a big palette along with the other compliments.
