My friend was a B.Tech. graduate in 2019 from a Bangalore-based university. She could not complete campus placements in Bangalore due to multiple backlogs and she had joined a startup that was in the seed stage. She completed her graduation in 2020, and her startup also collapsed as it was running out of funds. In a few months, she joined another startup in Bangalore, that was in the seed stage.
