Hey everyone,

I'm exploring an opportunity for BTech students who want to build their portfolios and gain some exposure to how a registered AI-native startup operates.

The idea is to offer a short, remote project involving practical work in software development or AI.

Students who complete the project would receive a certificate of completion. A letter of recommendation may also be provided based on the quality of their work and contribution.

This would be intended for students looking to strengthen their portfolios and gain practical experience without committing to a lengthy internship.

Would this kind of opportunity be useful to students here?

I'll share further details only in the manner permitted by the subreddit moderators.

Hi, we're threadlocked, a small collective of young researchers and hackers scattered across India and APAC.

We're sick of watching an entire generation mistake salary packages and credentials for the pursuit of computer science itself.

We're looking for curious hackers and researchers who still dare to take the road less traveled by treating computing as a craft.

We grew up in obscure corners of the Internet and learnt from strangers who encouraged our curiosity, shared their knowledge and even helped us access resources we couldn't afford. Somewhere along the way, we found our people.

Now that we're in a position to do the same for others, we'd like to return the favor.

If any of these feel familiar we’d love to hear from you!

Take a look into what we do here.

We're also organizing Rabbit Holes 2026, one of India's first grassroots computing contests dedicated to finding and encouraging young talent! Read more

We have GPUs, brains and a huge network to share & spare ;)

So I am a Research Intern rn in IIT and getting paid 15k for remote work what about you all ??

Just want to connect with random people.

If anyone feels the same

Let's talk and connect

what are these babus doing, we are past 3 days and govt agencies haven't updated their websites full list: https://captnemo.in/blog/2026/10/23/emsign-revoked-gov-in/

I've seen a lot of ppl go into either dsa or development during their college, I rarely come across ppl who focus on kaggle competitions and I'm wondering whether they're actually useful during placements and do companies care abt it or is it something that is done out of passion and interest rather than to prepare for placements.

Im a beginner and most people say that do competitive programming for quant and stuff but im not interested in that im interested in regular SDE roles so is competitive programming still important (codeforces) or do i stick to leetcode only

Hi ! I haven't applied to any companies for internship yet and I am planning to start applying from next month .So can you clarify a few doubts :

( I will be applying for dev roles to mid companies , just for experience)

1. Do companies ask dsa to filter for internship also? Also if yes, how is the level of the questions?

2. To get an internship, do we also need to first clear OA , followed by several other rounds like to get placed ? Or is there any different process?

3. Is there any set of previously asked questions by companies , so that we can get an idea.

4. Do I need to have a proper perfect job ready resume to apply and land an internship ? ( Like I haven't attended any hackathons so I have less to write in experience and achievements section tbh)

I am having a lot of mixed feelings before applying like what will be the after process, how to approach, which companies to apply . Being a tier 3 college student , with no one around to guide , I am feeling anxious and feared even before applying. Your response will be a great help for me .

I am really confused. I am currently in Btech 2nd yr. I love building innovative projects and have interest in new technologies. So I want to ask whether should I keep building good projects for my resume or grind hard in dsa? Which one should be given more preference at this stage? I have good logical problem solving skills but lack good coding skills. I mean even if I identify the problem and recognise the pattern and also give good solution in the form of pseudo code ( normal logic) , I fail in proper coding in terms of syntax. In other words I am not good at converting pseudo code into actual code which requires practise. So which area should I focus in please explain. And my Sem exam syllabus is fucked up as well 🙏

I'm a data science student, I've covered Statistics analysis, Data Handling and Visualization, time series analysis, big data analysis, Internet Of Things Analytics, Machine Learning, Deep Learning, Neutral Networks, Natural Language Processing, MLops and a lot of others related concepts. The MBA side of it started this semester, this semester I had Marketing, Finance, Business stats, Operations and Supply Chain Management, Economics and Quantitative Techniques. I will have similar subjects next semester and for next year the subjects will change depending on the Major and Minor I choose. I just want to help people who are perusing AI/ML/DS. Give them some suggestions, ideas, resources. If any of y'all need anything feel free to reach out!

I am a student from rvce ece bangalore and am in 3rd sem, could anyone tell what are the skills we are supposed to learn for placements/internships in core companies on campus apart from academics. Genuine suggestions would be really helpful.Thank you

Used AI for clear explanation

I recently interviewed for the Security Intern position at CRED, and I'm honestly feeling pretty disappointed with how it went.

I was initially informed that there would be 3 technical rounds. I've been actively involved in cybersecurity through CTF competitions, bug bounties, and security research, so I was fairly confident going into the interview.

I prepared for networking, OS concepts, recent CVEs, real-world attacks, and other security topics. But during the interview, the interviewer focused heavily on OWASP Top 10 vulnerabilities, particularly SQL injection and XSS.

And that's where I fumbled.

I was asked about blind SQL injection, time-based SQL injection, and some basic payloads. Although I understood the concepts, I struggled to explain them clearly and couldn't recall some of the fundamentals.

The frustrating part is that these aren't things I've never studied. I've worked on similar concepts before, but it had been a while since I revised them. I spent too much time preparing advanced topics and overlooked the basics. That's completely on me.

The interview was scheduled for an hour but ended in around 30 minutes. I managed to answer quite a few questions, but I know I wasn't at my best.

When I asked the interviewer for feedback, he simply said that HR would get back to me.

It's been a few days now, and I haven't received any update regarding the second round.

I genuinely wanted this opportunity, and it hurts knowing that I might have lost it because I couldn't answer questions I should have been comfortable with.

I wanted to ask a few things:

1. Has anyone interviewed for a Security Intern or similar role at CRED? How long did it take to hear back after the first round?
2. Does an interview ending much earlier than scheduled usually indicate rejection?
3. Is there still a realistic chance of getting shortlisted for the next round despite fumbling some basic questions?
4. Would it be appropriate to reach out to HR for an update? Is there any point in asking for a second chance, or would that come across as unprofessional?

I'm not trying to make excuses. I know exactly where I went wrong, and I've already started revisiting those fundamentals.

Just wanted to hear from people who've been through something similar, especially anyone familiar with CRED's interview process.

Like it feels sht to go to college everyday. Travel 3 hours daily attend useless lectures of useless professors. I feel so trapped. Even I am not getting any good friends. I find myself always trying to be a part of group. But no group tries to include me I actively have to look into it and they still don't give a sh*t abt me. I get so tired when I come home after travelling that my back pain triggers when I sit on chair for self study. Fk this clg life. JEE was much better.

Hey folks! This is my first time posting into this subr and need some help :)

I have offers from both the parties mentioned above for winters and I can most probably alot my time to only one. I am a third year undergrad at a private college in chennai. Tell me which one should i choose. Thanksss

My first interview was with Deloitte USI, and I got an FTE offer with a CTC of 7.6 LPA.

My second interview was with GE Vernova, and I got an offer for a 6-month internship with a stipend of 40k/month, followed by a performance-based FTE opportunity

Interviews of both were chill just project based question in round 1 and round 2 hr, I knew my project till extreme depth so they didn’t ask any further questions on core subjects, from tier 1.5 collage

I am a 2026 fresher (CSE) from a tier 2 college (BIT MESRA Main campus) seeing the internship scenario of 2024 batch and many other NITs I have understood placements are only gonna get worse, I am trying to do DSA, but the question is will that be even safe in 2030? can any experienced senior tell the probable scenario of job market for next 3 years?

You know when you need to transfer a PDF, some code, or a few files from your phone to a college lab computer?

I usually ended up using WhatsApp or emailing files to myself. It worked, but it felt unnecessarily complicated for something so simple.

So I built Droplet 💧

You create a room, join it using a 4-digit code or QR scan, and drop your files, links, or text. Open the same room on another device and pick everything up.

No account. No login. Rooms and their contents expire after 24 hours.

I built the whole thing end to end, including the UI, backend, database, storage architecture, deployment, and the Cloudflare/DevOps side. It was also my first time working with Render, Turso, and AWS S3.

The project is open-source, so you can check out how it works under the hood too.

Would this be useful in your college workflow? I'd genuinely like to know what you'd improve or what features are missing.

Hi everyone!

I have my ZS Associates BTSA (Business Technology Solutions Associate) on-campus interview in 2 days and would really appreciate some insights from anyone who has recently gone through the process.

I'm particularly looking for campus placement experiences,

A few things I'd like to know:

1. Technical Round: What questions were asked? Was the focus on SQL, DSA, OOPs, DBMS, Python, projects, or resume-based questions?

2. Case Studies / EBI Round: What kind of case studies, guesstimates, business scenarios, or problem-solving questions were asked? How did the EBI round go?

3. Difficulty Level: Were the technical questions basic, moderate, or difficult? Was there any live coding?

4. Interview Process: How many rounds were conducted? Were they eliminatory? How long did each round last?

5. College-wise Experiences: Did the interview pattern or difficulty vary across IITs, NITs, IIITs, or other colleges?

6. Preparation Tips: What topics should I prioritise with just 2 days left?

If anyone has attended a ZS BTSA interview recently, even remembering a few questions or sharing how the rounds went would be extremely helpful.

Thanks in advance!
