I don’t know anything about the job-situation in India, but I would sort-of agree with jeffa. It sounds to me like you’re looking for “any port in a storm” and trying to convince yourself that you will be happy. And, maybe, rushing through the job-search process. Sure, we all want a paycheck ... but will you be happy?
Don’t be entirely put-off by the fact that back-end jobs are asking for “years of experience.” They could well be just trying to deflect the “front-end developer” types whose entire experience to-date is Drupal and CMSes ... “not relevant, and they don’t know it,” but as you do know. Every job is filled by a hiring manager who makes a considered purchasing decision. If you are qualified and interested, don’t be afraid to try to make the sale.
And, as they say around here, “this might be your first rodeo, but it won’t be your last one.” This is not the only job you’ll find or the only interview you’ll go to.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
