Hey, i come from a similar bg.
Don't set any expectations, period. I've seen bain (bcn) offers being delayed to jan 2024.
Aim a min fixed salary like 7lpa and do not get carried away by high CTCs.
Make a hr questions repository and have the key points memorised.
Also, while writing points on the cv, making sure to quantify it and use the result-context-action approach. But don't embellish your achievements to the point that you can't justify them.
Controversial, but figure what u want money or good role. For me it was a bit of both so had to make sacrifices.
Also, a lot of firms shortlist on the basis of aptitude tests, not cvs. At least that's what I got to know from insider convos.
Luck is a factor mate, so work very smartly.
