Dear Friend

Biologist job has been categorized as per the demand in society and developed technology and freshers should be awared about the demand and supply in the biotechnology sector like other technology oriented industry. As a fresher first you should understand the basic qualification what you have acquired at school level till 12th and where you have scored remarkably as compare to other subjects you gone though. Why I am raising such comprehension becoz of your interest which needs to be brought forward, as we know each trait has specialized potential to claim anything in nature similarly your natural potential in biology can help you to be fitted. If you are developing a vague idea about employment in biology and other subject then it could be fatal for you, why? Intearest, purpose, capacity, skills, and then your submission towards biology will make you fresh to target the job as per following given course structure and it implications in job sectors:

1. 12th pass with biology: limited scope in any private centre i can not suggest anything
2. 12th pass with biology + handon training in any skill oriented course like clinical/pathological/dressers for six months can enable you at junior level in any clinic/medical research center/hospital etc max salary 5-10k
2. 12th biology + B.Sc/B.Sc hons in any of the subject (botany/zoology/biochemistry/bio-informatcs/clinical science etc) will make you for technician or demonstrator in private company/ govt college/private college. salary range-8-15k
3. 12th + B.Sc/B.Sc hons+MS/MSc in biology will bring you at college demonstrator/ junior scientist or technician in Research Development or technician in any educational laboratory. Salary range-12-22k
4. with eligibility no 3 and training in any specializationon Plant Tissue Culture/ Molecular Biology/Microbiology/any research oriented training in biological field will give you various exposure in biological sector. Salary range 15-25 K



5. Eligibility no 4 with Juniour Research Fellowship of University Grant Comission/ CSIR/ CSIMR etc will bring you to the research world for your doctorate program and you can avail good emolument -16000-22,800 monthly

6. with eligibility no 4 + GRE/TOEFEL you can apply abroad (USA/GERMANY/OTHER COUNTRY) for Ph.D or simply contact any consultancy to guide you for jobs available worldwide in biological science.

hope above sited points are clearly written.

Dear Friend, you have not mentioned that what is the meaning of freshere biologist in your term. A fresher biologist could be a person holding a masters degree or doctoral degree or a simple graduate. To become a biologist you have to study subject "Biology" strating from your secondary classes. I graduate courses you have take any biology subject such as zoology, botany, biochemistry, microbiology, biotechnology etc.

The first thing which you need to learn is command over your subject. You should understand the basic principles of your subject. You should be also to analyse and give your opinions related to topics of your subject. Since you are a biologist, and a biologist is supposed to learn different techniques and to handle various sophisticated instruments.

You should have good hands on training on all the instruments you have used in your school, your graduation, post graduation and doctoral degree programs. The reason beiing is, if you work in an industry, people there will expect from you to handle the instruments independently. Similarly in an academic field, if you join a lecturer, teacher or scientist, you have teach the students. Again if you have good knowledge of subject and instruments then only you will be able to teach.

During your degree programs, try to learn techniques related to your subject. There are many training programs offered by universities, research organization and even by private companies to impart trainings in tehnology. This type of trinings could be related to some latest instruments used in molecular biology techniques. These trainings are on payment basis, and definitely these gives very good exposure to the trainee. These types of trainings will give you an opportyunity to work in private as well as in government sector.


If you wish to join academic field then during your masters and doctoral program, try to participate in the national and international conferences, symposia, workshops. Here you will get an exposure, what latest is going on and what is direction of biology stream, what people are working. This you will come to know on a single plagteform. In acdemic field, another very importnet thing is have a certificate of NET (National Eligibility Test), either of UGC-CSIR or ICAR. Some state also conduct their own NET exam.

Try to learn things whatever comes to your door steps.

Good Luck....
