On-Campus Placement

The Milestone

• Before starting out, I took a timeline that I had to get placed in the month of August 2023, and that’s how it all started.
• Started thinking that the first company which would be coming in that I would be placed because I worked tirelessly and gave my all in the past few years.
• The D arrived and didn’t portray myself in the best way possible.
• Rejected at many steps, and when I reached the interview stages, I think these could be the reasons for getting rejections:
• ZS Associates (applied for DAA role and gave an interview like a tech person)
• Mastercard (Round 2 technical, got too nervous when I couldn’t explain a lot)
• Transunion (even I don’t know the reason)
• 3 times in a row rejection that also occurred within 1 week, compelled me to get placed somehow in the next interview.
• Got placed in Varasi (only one in the college)
• Because it was a Salesforce Dev role job, the bar of competition was low, and evaluating now, even I don’t know how I convinced myself for that role because I had no previous work experience in that field.
• Rs. 8 Lakhs in-hand yearly package with Rs. 12,000 internet cost. (CTC was also 8 Lakhs only)
• The initial joining date was July 2024, but due to business challenges, they shifted the date to Jan 2025.
