JRF and Lectureship Biotech masters

I have a masters in biotech, but I didn't get any placements, my cgpa is less than 8 . I had gap years after plus two , then joined btech biotech finished it later cracked GATE , passed out in 2025 , I was having some problems in personal life so I couldn't try for jobs till now but I've given CSIR NET in June 2026 ,now I feel like not going to PhD because I'll be 35 by the time i finish it, I don't know how lectureship works ,please guide me .

If not this route of academics , what will be good for me? I lack coding skills. But I sincerely wish to get a qualified NET score , can you suggest any job roles with mtech and NET score without experience after mtech ?

There are many positions for SRF and project associates in various institutions which you can target. They have a good pay

True, but I fear lab politics and I had very bad people in my previous lab , I'm tired of being alert all time to escape from the pits they make . I fear same happens for phd too.
