Answer by Rohan Pathak:
in India, there are at least 15 lacs engineers produced each year and almost every parent is so fascinated by this term that each of them wants their son to be one. Most of us were forced by our inner *good son* instinct to fall into engineering while at the end of engineering we realized that we actually didn't want to do it.
2. Knowledge Vs Marks? Sir we are in a country where no one gives a damn about excellence but only about marks.
So this is the bitter truth, 70% of engineers do engineering so that they can work in an IT INDUSTRY no matter if their stream is chemical engineering or mechanical, most of them end up in an IT company because it pays decently good.
3. Don't blame engineers for the failure, blame the faculty of those colleges which still lives in the 19th century.
University of Pune, so called "Oxford of the East" known for its quality education, here in every college(whichever is not in top 3 of course) faculty lives in era or M. Gandhi and PJL Nehru, they still believe in the concept of "master ji" and believe me in almost every normal engineering college of India what we learn is totally outdated, tech has gone beyond those filthy 1000 page books, go to any university and see their syllabus and then compare it with top universities of the US, UK and Canada.
In short, most of the engineers are not literally the engineers, they could have been great philosophers? A great singer? A great cricket player? Some of them could have been good lawyers or good business analysts? a guitarist or a good speaker? Or definitely a good writer?
But... Welcome to India, a place where 1000s of dreams die every year for the sake of term EXPECTATION.

Thanks everyone for upvotes. I feel a little rich here now on quora, looks like I can be a good entrepreneur..
haha :)
What is the reason lots of engineering students can't get a good job in India?
Well I see almost everyone is accusing engineers for not utilising their 4 years of graduation in learning anything and they just do engineering for the sake of name? When they achieve marks they think they have learned enough? I will tell you what..1. System in India has become like that.
