I am helping someone in my family for a summer internship. The candidate is 2nd yr student from a IIT in core branch, finding it hard to get one from campus process as branch is non-CS related but her interest lies in software.

Do referrals work in these cases? Also any good platforms to spot open campus opportunities?

Welcome to Business Roles's Private Community

Brief intro about myself- I am a male 3rd year undergrad at IITD, not from a circuital department. Companies such as Amazon, Google, Flipkart and Adobe have already hired students from campus but they filter students via branch i.e. unless you're in CS, Maths or Electrical it's close to impossible to land an internship in SDE. Most top students in CS go for HFT companies but still recruiters prefer low GPA CS students over somebody from say mechanical or chemical. 
I've solved around 200 problems on leetcode/CF and I want to apply to companies by myself off-campus from January.
How should I go about it and what are things I should be doing along with my college academics to increase my chances of landing an internship?!

Hi guys

This job referral is for my sister who is a 2023 passout fresher.  She did BE E&C in a decent college in bangalore. She wanted to work in  core, so she did a few internships but couldn't land a job. 
Now she is ready for any job but not getting any calls. 
 Please let me know if there is any walk-in interview or hire drives going on at your company that she can attend. 

Thanks

Consultant

I am a '21 graduate from a Tier 1 college (old IIT) and have had short stints as product manager at a couple of startups. About a year back, I decided to startup but after a few months, realized that startup idea wasn't worth pursuing. 

Researched around a few startup ideas and finally landed upon a good one in D2C space. But the problem is financing. I don't have much saving and friends / family network wouldn't be able to finance this. I really want to pursue this idea but finance is becoming a hindrance. 

So started looking for job opportunities about 3 months back. I have been exploring work opportunities in product / founder office / EIR roles or other generalist role. 

Job hunt process has been frustrating to say the least. Getting very few calls. In most cases, people are ghosting after couple of rounds of interview or assignment. In some cases, after getting through 2-3 rounds, I got to know that opening has been closed temporarily. Most HRs don't even have the decency to give feedback. 

I don't intend to work in job for long anyway. As soon as I have the job, I plan to start working on my business idea and quit as soon as I have enough financial leeway. 

How should I go about job hunt process? I have been trying to connect with folks on LinkedIn in whose company job openings are there. Apart from this, I have been connecting with founders from recently funded startups. Naukri / Instahyre and IIM Jobs are other portals I have been looking on. Anything I should do differently here? 

Looking forward to hearing your suggestions / experience.

How bad is the job market?

Just a advice: 
  
 Never do the assignment for any company.This company will ghost you every time after the assignment or will offer lower pay / lower position. 
  
 Companies just try to get ideas via the assignment

Any referral for SWE intern role

I'm 24 year old unemployed. I graduated in 2021 with BTech IT from tier 3 college. 
Initially I was preparing for UPSC exam but I gave up after few months and now for a year I have been learning Front End Development and have learnt HTML, CSS, JS & ReactJS but unable to find a job.
I made a lot of mistakes in past and didn't learned from them. I'm not good at anything. I apply daily at different platforms ex: wellfound (formerly angellist), hirist, hirect, instahyre, cutshort, individual mass hiring companies off campus but from nowhere I'm getting interview call even if I get call I'm not able to clear interview. 

Now the thing is my parents gave me ultimatun to get out of the house by April 1st they don't care what type of job I do. 
I don't understand what can I do now. I'm willing to do hardwork and learn from my mistakes I just need little guidance to get on a track. If anyone can guide me on how to get a job or any advice. I would really appreciate it. Thanks for reading.

Frontend Engineer

I am looking for referral in any startups or product based companies in India in any city or remote.
I'm about to graduate in June 2023.

I am currently working as intern at Microsoft (Offcampus),  the chances of PPO are very high but I don't like the work and project here, so I might not take it.

Before this I interned at a fintech startup (Offcampus) for 7 months, where I would have loved to join full time but my PPO got cancelled due to sudden hiring freeze in the company :(

Applied to entry level SDE jobs in a lot of companies but got no replies or the typical "There is a hiring freeze, we'll contact you once it ends."

If your org is hiring for SDE 1 or similar profiles, please help me with a referral. I'll DM you my resume and details.

Current stipend: 
1.25 LPM

Expected salary: 
CTC: 20+ LPA
Base: 15+ LPA

Hello everyone,

I am currently in my final semester of college(Tier 1). I failed to secure a placement from on-campus placement drive.

I am looking for off campus opportunities. Due to my family conditions I am thinking of applying for foreign startups who hire freshers from India, pay well(decent, I am not expecting very high pay) and remote work option.

Thanks

Internship opportunities

Summer internship opportunities

Just got to know recently that a tier 1 mba college didn’t conduct interviews as part of their admission process during covid. Just CAT scores sufficed. 

In addition to this, post admission, these batches didn’t have proctored exams, they could collaborate and solve the exams together and then submit their answers online. 

Please do reply if this was very common during Covid across other colleges and any other such crazy lapses across colleges.

Dark secrets about premier colleges

In another college, there is no resume vetting and people can and do add a lot of BS "achievements". 
 This is also the college with the largest intake and almost every second person has something like a director's merit list or an honors' list or they are a 'torchbearer'.

Strategy & Operations

I'm a final year undergraduate from BMS Bangalore. Due to the hiring freeze, there's no placements happening at my college. I really need someone who could refer me to a good firm. I'm looking for roles like sde1 or data analyst. 

If you can help, then please consider my request. 

ps: I haven't started anything with product management. But it's a field in which I'm interested too. So any possibility of me getting into this domain would also be highly appreciated. 

Help me.

Need referrals, please help.

Currently I am in my second year from a Tier 3 college. On campus placements at my college for the 2024 batch is really worse. Few companies are hiring for sales roles etc. and most of them are putting tough eligibility criteria and hiring only few.

To be very honest, I have no hopes from on campus placements. I am going for the off campus route.
What should I do to get a decent intern in third year/fourth year and a decent job by the time of graduation?

Talking about my progress, I am doing DSA, taking part in contests in Codechef, Codeforces, and Leetcode. 
Besides that I have started learning Machine Learning. Have done only the Math part and basics though still now. Been to 2 offline hackathons.

Second year CS undergrad

I am a fresher. I am from tier 2 college and currently in my final year. I am not sure if my projects are good but I have done freelance work in web development. And i am doing leetcode everyday.

I have 2 on campus offers but am not satisfied with it. I just want an opportunity.

Please share your experience how you get referrals and what should I do.....

How to get referrals ??

I am a computer engineering student from a tier 3 college in Pune. Now that I am in the last couple of months of my 6th semester multiple companies have come to our campus but I haven't gotten an internship. How do i search for internships off campus?
Are there any tips from some experienced people like what do companies look at when giving out internships. Since last month I started applying off campus using linkedin and other websites but I am not getting any callbacks for interviews or even online tests.
Previously I haven't done any internships but have done projects which I have out on my resume.

Please forgive me if the format of this post is wrong, vague or broad. I am writing a grapevine post for the first time.
