You have all heard "never ask a Ph.D. student when they will finish?". It's literally that never ending.
So after a Ph.D., where are those fellows working? Did you know even they are called freshers in the job market. No job experience babe. Just been studying, writing grants, publishing papers and lots of research.
The large majorities destiny is at the universities, on a long journey- Ph.D., Postdoctoral, double postdoctoral, and a far dream of a professor at almost the time of retirement, if your in sciences or engineering. Yes couple people do get into companies- but you know one could do that job with a bachelors or master degree too plus couple years of work experience.
Other non- Indian courses (just joking- but I mean the courses that the vast majority of Indians don't pick) economics, education, arts, etc. maybe they get to be a professor a bit earlier than the engineering folks.
Ph.D. is for the ones really interested in pure research and not in getting rich. There's hardly any great funding there.
But yes kudos to those Ph.D. fellows out there. You guys got a lot of great ideas and are the ones behind the unknown to be known!
