    Hello, After pursuing a Master's degree in Psychology, you can work as a researcher, or can get a post of Assistant Professor. For this, you have to appear in UGC NET (University Grants Commission National Eligibility Test). The exam is organized two times in a year by National Testing Agency. The exam will be organized in December 2018. Get the syllabus and start preparing for it. Best of luck.
