Off-topic: Investments

Hi, I have zero investments right now.
My salary is 1.3L per month and I manage to save around 80K monthly.
Please suggest me where should I invest as a beginner and how much into which option based on my savings?
Looking for some personal strategies which you guys went through.
TIA

Any other loan officers in here? I'm trying to decide if I should dig in with the current market or look to pivot. I've only been a loan officer since 10/2020. So this is my first rough patch.

Is it okay to name clients you have worked on on your resume?

I think this generation has finally understood that it's not worth preparing for govt jobs like UPSC, RBI, SEBI, SSC job, even state PCS.

Earlier they used to sacrifice important 3-4-5 yrs for such jobs but now people want to work more in Corporate rather than wasting their lives for such govt jobs which doesn't even have any significant future as compared to an IT job.

Is this true or people are still running after these govt jobs? I can see the mindset shift from Govt to Corporate jobs.
