Key Advice from an experienced UWE postgraduate:

"The Indian IT sector is mostly a support industry working with or run by western companies. You should construct your CV in such a way that there is more emphasis on key skills, such as any certifications achieved. You are more likely to get a job response through a consultant than by directly applying to top companies such as Infosys, HCL Technologies, Fiserv, and Cisco. Also make sure that you put your CV on job portals such as monster.com and naukri.com."
