Jobs in VLSI

Perhaps he could go to the various Very-large-scale integration (integrated circuit design and manufacturer) companies websites and see if they are employing at the moment.

HOWEVER BE WARNED !!!!!! If he has no experience he will have a hard time getting a job straight out of University. If he wants to be hired as a VLSI designer, well he can forget it without quite a few years (or decades. Yes I am quite serious) of actual experience under his belt. They probably won't even bother looking at his CV one they see no experience.

With little to no experience I would say his best bet is to get a job in a number of smaller companies FIRST and work his way up the experience ladder.

No harm in trying straight for the VLSI companies however, but he shouldn't expect to get in and having a Masters somewhat limits his abilities to be hired in a low position and work his way up. The may offer little to no pay work experience however.

Others here on CR4 have more experience with VLSI companies and likely have different views.

You have said it very well.

Best try for an internship in a VLSI company. It will help you expand your skill sets and give you hands-on experience. It is said that 7 out of 10 internships result in a full time job offer, During your internship, make sure to establish a professional network of peers, mentors, and colleagues that will serve as a reference in the future!

The best way for him to look for a job would be for your friend to buy a computer and go on-line himself.

He'll never get anywhere with you as his mouthpiece.

He should also learn how to use a search engine.

There is a lot of scope in abroad in VLSI designing.There are many opportunities in Japan and Argentina and other Developed European countries.But to get a job in a foreign country it will be better that you work in India first in the same field.
