Choose Career Choice Solution for solar staffing solutions
Solar project staffing has its own challenges – demanding project deadlines, site-specific and unique skills, interstate deployment, etc., and a constant demand for people who possess both technical and field skills. At Career Choice Solution, we are aware of all these challenges because we are experts in the energy sector, engineering field and IT. We do not just evaluate candidates on the basis of skills but also on project type, technology stack used (inverter brands, monitoring platforms, etc.) and geographical flexibility – thus making sure that the candidates as well as the recruiters fit.
From a 100 MW solar project in Kutch you wish to get staffed up with, to a sales team spread throughout Ahmedabad for a rooftop solar developer, or building a state-wide O&M team in Gujarat, Career Choice Solution provides job-ready and screened candidates in less time compared to a general recruitment firm.
Individuals registered with Career Choice Solution get access to the unadvertised, confidential jobs with solar projects (which don't make their way into public advertisements) even when the IPs and EPCs of Ahmedabad are in the pre-bid stages.
Frequently asked questions
Why is Ahmedabad considered one of the best cities in India for solar project jobs?
Ahmedabad hosts the regional and national operations of the largest solar developers and EPC organisations in India, including Adani Green, Torrent Power, Waaree Energies, and Sterling & Wilson. Driven by Gujarat's ambitious renewable energy goals and marked by monumental solar project undertakings in Dholera and Khavda, Ahmedabad stands as the most vibrant solar employment market in western India and continues to witness a constant demand for engineers, project managers and O&M personnel.
What is the minimum educational requirement for solar project jobs?
Engineering and technical positions require a B.E./B.Tech or a diploma in electrical, electronics or mechanical engineering. Candidates for design engineering positions would need to be proficient with PVsyst, AutoCAD and HOMER. O&M and site positions are more field-orientated and require experience with solar panels, inverters and HT systems. Sales and business development positions require knowledge of solar financing, net metering regulations and the procedures of DISCOMs.
Is Career Choice Solution's placement service free for the candidates?
Yes, it is entirely free. The entire service fee is borne by the client companies. Job aspirants of any level – a fresh graduate or an experienced professional – will not be charged anything for registering or for placement or for any other consulting in the solar project segment, ever.
What is the expected salary range in the Gujarat solar project domain?
Junior solar engineers and site supervisors would expect a salary range between 3 and 5.5 LPA, while engineers with 3-7 years of solar-specific experience for design and project engineering roles could expect a salary of 7-16 LPA. Senior project managers, O&M leads and heads of business development at large IPPs and EPC companies can expect salaries ranging between 18 and 35 LPA depending on the scale of operations and the organisation structure.
Do you place candidates for rooftop solar jobs or just utility-scale projects?
We serve clients in all segments of solar projects, including residential and commercial rooftop installations, C&I solar power projects, ground-mounted utility-scale power plants, floating solar systems, and solar hybrid systems. We fill vacancies for both on-grid and off-grid projects across all of Gujarat and other states too.
Do you assist with placing fresh graduates from Ahmedabad in solar jobs?
Yes. We provide fresh graduates holding electrical and electronics engineering degrees with job placement for Graduate Engineer Trainee, Jr Site Engineer and Solar O&M Trainee roles with solar power developers operating projects in Gujarat. We offer guidance with technical interview preparation too, with explanations of basic electrical parameters of solar inverters, solar irradiation and solar plant safety measures which are common to all solar interviews.
