Pune Student Spotlight: Maqsood Kazi's PLC Path

From Omerga, Maharashtra · B.Tech Electrical Engineering · ABC Trainings, Wagholi Centre, Pune

Background — Why Maqsood Picked Wagholi

Maqsood came to ABC Trainings from Omerga — a route that often gets framed as a relocation question, but Maqsood's path runs straight through the local centre. Maqsood brought a B.Tech Electrical Engineering background into the centre, where the gap between a qualification and a paying job role isn't academic depth — it's the working-software fluency a hiring manager can verify in 20 minutes. That's the gap this training was supposed to close at Wagholi Centre, Pune, and it did.

The Journey — From First Enrollment to PLC & SCADA

Maqsood enrolled in AutoCAD Electrical first at Wagholi, then layered PLC & SCADA on top once the foundation was solid. This isn't a casual choice — two complementary tools in one stack is the exact configuration Pune employers screen for in juniors. Sequential completion (not parallel sampling) is what made the combination credible on a CV.

The Teaching at Wagholi

On the teaching side, the feedback Maqsood left was specific — and worth paraphrasing here. Maqsood credited Sushma Ma'am for breaking down each PLC and SCADA topic step by step with practical examples and for staying patient through every doubt-clearing session in the Wagholi lab. In a market where most certificate-issuing institutes treat practical work as optional, that distinction matters more than the certificate itself.

What's Hiring in Pune for PLC Profiles

On the hiring side, Pune is more active than the surface suggests. Open positions on ABC Trainings' job-openings desk include Design / Automation Engineer at Impact Automation Solutions, Pune (₹14K start) and Design / Automation Engineer at Impact Automation Solutions, Pune (₹14K start). Both shortlists prioritise candidates who can demonstrate the kind of software fluency Maqsood's PLC & SCADA portfolio represents. For Pune graduates considering the same path, the takeaway is straightforward: pick the dominant tool in your target industry, commit to 3-4 months of focused training at Wagholi, and start applying while you're still completing the final modules.
