Abstract: 
Emotional intelligence scores and resilience levels were evaluated to investigate the correlations between them. Analyzing the impact of years of experience and emotional intelligence on resilience was one of the objectives. Resilience, years of experience, and emotional intelligence were defined operationally, and hypotheses were developed. 151 Indian working professionals between the ages of 21 and 35 provided self-report questionnaires from which data was gathered. The Trait Emotional Intelligence Questionnaire - Short Form and the Connor-Davidson Resilience Scale were employed. To analyze the data, multiple regression analysis and Pearson's correlation coefficient were used. The findings showed that emotional intelligence and resilience were positively correlated, with emotional intelligence being a substantial predictor of resilience. There was, however, little proof that years of expertise and resilience were related. Sample and response biases, a cross-sectional design, a focus on demographics, and confounding variables were among the limitations. To achieve a thorough grasp of emotional intelligence, years of experience, and resilience across varied groups, future research should make use of demographic diversification, random sampling, longitudinal investigations, and objective assessments.
