A Job Designing Cars of the Future!
I am looking at the newspapers every day and going through all these websites and one thing that keeps popping up at unexpected moments is CARS! Cheap cars and foreign cars and small cars and just more cars! Now, I am a designer by profession, trying to make it big in the fashion world, but I may just steer a different course.
I came across this car survey by an audit company that said that the average annual wage of an Indian car designer is now merely close to Rs 3 Lakh per year, but this profession could be the next IT salary wave! US firms pay an average of Rs 28 Lakh per year for an entry-level car designer and UK firms shell out Rs 25 Lakh per year for the same. Calculating with these numbers, it is easy to see that these guys can easily employ 5 to 8 people in India for the salary of ONE person in US or UK. Needless to say these big guys would want to slowly move to India for designing and developing their future cars.
The French company, Renault, has already set up base in India and Maruti Suzuki is using Indian engineers to develop their global cars, and GM has recently set up its research lab her as well. Many other companies are set to follow. How cool will a job designing cars be?

Hey thanks for the info. I am a automobile engineering student. I have always been interested in designing cars. The salaries are amazing and the job will surely a great. I will now concentrate my activities towards making a career in this line.
I am one of the aspirants waiting to start my career in car designing. I am also coming across some articles and interesting stuff on the scope for designers in Indian auto industry. I found that after 1 lakhs car's introduction in auto expo, some global car manufacturers like General motors, Ford are behind the Indian car designers to design their cars. As Indian auto industry is booming, there will sure be a great demand for car designers like software engineers in India in the future.
The job of designing cars is like a dream profession. It is fun and lots of engineering techniques. I hope the Indian youth will be able to match the international standards and come out with path breaking technology.
