Unfortunately this learning establishment does not find a job for you. They used to have a job board that potential employers would pay to post a job listing but I guess that didn't work out to well so now they have this.

My best advise is to look for work via the age old social network scheme. Where you make as many friends as possible that are working in the same industry that you want to be in, in hopes of one of them at least knowing someone who is looking for your current talent.

Saugat, Sorry for taking so long to respond. I've not been on for a while. Adding to what Cecil said, I would suggest checking craigslist for freelance work. Although there are dev jobs available, most employers want working experience. If you have trouble finding a job, freelancing is a good way of building that work experience (as well as expanding your portfolio). Start with friends, neighbors, and family. Someone you know is bound to want a website, app, plugin, etc. Create projects for yourself, test them, verify they work, and send them out into the world (GitHub is good for this). There are opportunities for us devs in that market. It may not be a steady income. But, it's an income and it can lead to a really good job or running your own business. What ever you do, DO NOT give up. Surround yourself with people who are where you want to be. Keep your dream alive.

Best Regards,

James
