HireSetu's note
A different kind of mechanical work
Most mechanical freshers picture machine design, manufacturing or plant maintenance when they see a graduate trainee title. This job is services design for life-sciences buildings: cleanroom HVAC, utilities and piping for pharma and biotech facilities. Cleanroom air is about air changes per hour, pressure gradients between rooms and filtration levels, not cooling a cabin. Give cleanroom classification and GMP an evening of reading before you apply; it is the world these drawings live in.
Topics to revise
Heat load basics, psychrometry, duct and pipe sizing, pump head and flow calculations, unit conversions. You will help produce calculations and datasheets, so be able to explain how you arrived at a number, not just the number. On AutoCAD, layers, xrefs and a clean plot are what a reviewer notices. Learn to read a P&ID and an equipment datasheet as well; both turn up constantly in utilities and piping work.
The degree is the gate
Mechanical or chemical engineering is the one firm requirement, and the 0 to 1 year band means freshers are genuinely in the running. AutoCAD is marked preferred, so nobody rejects you for its absence on paper, but in a design office it is the tool you use all day and a candidate who can draft spends less time catching up. Equipment selection and vendor document reviews are part of the work too, so you touch procurement early.
The path after two years
IPS runs the full chain on its projects: design, procurement, construction management, commissioning and qualification. That breadth is why a graduate here can steer toward project engineering, procurement or commissioning after a couple of years on utility and HVAC design. Site support is in the scope, so expect occasional trips to project sites with the Mumbai office as your base.
