Are you passionate about the aviation sector? Do you want to build a decent career in this sector? If yes, this post will be of help to you. Here, I’ve listed down some of the best aviation jobs available in India. ITI passed candidates, 10th passed candidates, 12th passed candidates, diploma holders and Bachelor’s Degree holders – I’ve listed down job posts for all of them.
The aviation sector is growing at a healthy pace. This sector is known to generate different types of job opportunities. Prominent job profiles include – commercial pilot and air hostess. I’ve decided to exclude commercial pilot from this post. This job role is already quite popular in India and across the world. This post has been crafted keeping the needs of ITI passed candidates, 10th & 12th passed candidates, diploma holders and Bachelor’s Degree holders. The aviation sector is so huge that it generates different types of job roles and profiles. Some jobs require an ITI qualification, some other jobs need a diploma. On the other hand, some jobs are meant only for graduates. Some other jobs are ideal for 10th and 12th passed candidates. I’ve covered each and every type of job in this post. Broadly speaking, these jobs can be classified into the following types – engineering jobs, technical jobs, trade-based jobs (ITI), airport ground duty (cargo), airport ground duty (safety), airport ground duty (customer service), air traffic control and more.
