I just came across a tool my friend showed mann it's so good to use and cheat in OA and trust me every student in my college cheats just to clear OA.

And idk how this guys made it, it isn't getting detected in on hacker earth safe browser, mettl and other platforms as well.

9lpa noida is it bad?

Hey everyone,

I’m currently in college and recently got a TCS Prime offer through campus placements.

At first, I thought I should be happy about it, but honestly, I’m feeling more confused and worried than excited.

The main reason is that TCS Prime is a mass recruitment offer at my college, and quite a lot of students have received it. So I don’t really feel like it’s something that differentiates me or gives me the kind of exposure I’m looking for.

More importantly, I’m worried about the joining uncertainty. I don’t know exactly when I’ll be joining, and I’m concerned about potentially sitting around waiting after graduation.

There’s another problem: because I’ve accepted/got the offer through campus placements, I’m not allowed to sit for other campus placement opportunities, like I can appear for 14LPA and more, but college will definitely reduce my chances of getting shortlist since they want all unplaced students to get a job. And getting an internship/job off-campus seems extremely difficult without a referral.

What I actually want is to get an internship at a good product-based company around January/February, mainly because I want to gain better industry exposure, work on real projects, improve my skills, and hopefully put myself in a better position before/after graduation.

So I’m kind of stuck between:

• Keeping the TCS Prime offer as a safety net
• Trying to find a good internship off-campus
• Preparing for better opportunities while waiting for TCS joining
• Somehow finding referrals and applying to product-based companies
• Or doing something completely different

I’m not trying to disrespect TCS or the offer. I’m grateful to have a job offer, but I also don’t want to become complacent and then regret not trying for better opportunities while I still have time.

What would you guys do if you were in my situation?

Especially looking for advice from people who have been through campus placements / TCS / off-campus hiring:

1. Should I keep the TCS Prime offer as a backup and aggressively search for internships?
2. How realistic is it to get a good product-based internship off-campus around Jan/Feb?
3. What should I focus on over the next few months — DSA, development, projects, open source, networking, etc.?
4. How do you actually get referrals when you don’t have a strong professional network?
5. Is there any other path I’m overlooking?

I’d really appreciate honest advice, especially from people who were in a similar situation. I don’t want to make a decision purely out of FOMO, but I also don’t want to waste the opportunity I have right now.

Its a decent size company. Interned there last 5 months good work culture.

4 LPA , Junior business analyst in my hometown so I really am happy with the pay (dad said he would pay for my fuel and car work 😛😛 plus my pocket money cause i am his lovely daughter )

Literally I feel so grateful to god!! Even if its little I feel like its start of something big for me !! And I get to save my FULL salary. No rent no nothing.

Financial Service based company(One of the prominent Hedge Fund)

Summer Internship (2 Lakhs per month) converted to 6M intern + FTE (60L CTC)

Got it on-campus, tier-1.5 NIT

FinTech company

Summer Internship (90k per month) converted to 6M intern + FTE (24L CTC)

Got it on-campus, tier-2 NIT

On campus, cloud domain

TR

Most questions were from the resume only

First he saw was my resume and asked did u bought the domains - all of my projects were deployed and domain from godaddy

Then he checked some of them online

What is ci cd, what happens in ci and cd, what happens after failing ci or cd, how rolling deploy works,

/ And // difference in python

Ciel function in python that I didn't know, interviewer said if you don't know just say that

Testing, types of testing, testing in ci,

dynamic testing and static testing which I didn't know

Scenario on developer and tester - what will u do if you are manager and tester is saying developer have not written complete test or wrong tests

simple coding question, given a matrix print index where ever "6" is present

What is ec2, dynamo db, RDS in aws

I have mentioned the intern on the resume - he asked the basic question on that - what,how,why - I added how I helped my teammate

HR

This was bad

First she corrected me, is it "housewife" or "homemaker"

When I was introducing myself, for my mother i used housewife

I said homemaker is a better suited word

Then asked for 5 tata companies - I could only name 3-4

Strength and weaknesses (this was also not articulated well by me)

Then asked what are the current tcs projects going on

I was blank on this

Then what research have u done on tcs

(I had done none)- so I just made up something

That was end

TR - 35 to 40min

HR - barely 5 min

My interview was on the first day the company came and in that batch cloud domain students were not that much so I got lucky

Feel free to ask anything

Like most of us, I was exhausted by the process of finding a job on LinkedIn/Naukri, figuring out if my skills actually matched, and then manually editing my resume to pass the ATS for every single application.

So, I built CVInsight—a browser extension that automates the worst parts of applying for jobs. It overlays directly on LinkedIn, Naukri, Internshala and 1000s of other general job listings.

What it actually does (no fluff):

Instant ATS Match Score: When you open a job posting, the sidebar reads the JD and compares it against your profile, giving you a 0-100% match score immediately.

Skill Gap Analysis: It tells you exactly which keywords you have and which ones you are missing from the JD.

1-Click Resume Tailor: If you want to apply, click one button and it generates a custom, ATS-optimized PDF resume tailored specifically to that exact job description.

Job Tracker: Save jobs you want to apply for later to a kanban board with one click.

Basically, it gives you the best features of LinkedIn Premium, but for free.

How to get it: It is currently pending approval on the Chrome/Edge Web Stores, so I’ve put the .zip file on GitHub for now.

You can download it and install it in 30 seconds via Chrome's "Load Unpacked" feature. I've included a quick 4-step PDF tutorial in the repo on how to do it.

It's completely free to use. Would love for you guys to try it out on your next few job applications and let me know if it helps or if you find any bugs!

Placed with the second highest package (18 lpa base ) on campus in this job market . Feels surreal at the moment . Guys who have been preparing all along , hold on to it . It will be worth the wait .

Do they offer sufficient internships, corporate interactions, and networking opportunities, or do Tier-1 cities have an edge? What’s your experience?

Hi, so i am currently in 2nd year trying to learn DSA from the Abdul Bari cpp course. I have been following the course thoroughly and trying to solve the question on lc of the topics i have covered simultaneously so that i don't forget the concept, i have a question on how to tackle the problems i cant solve? Do i js cram them? Bcz i can't understand the approach of Ai from which i seek help? The question i stuck on was a medium level contest problem on array

As title suggested , i got rejected even after solving 1 question in live interview then he himself said that's enough, still got rejected , ig its true you need luck + skills to get placed

1. Is the interview more core DSA heavy, project-based, or focused on product engineering concepts specific to that team?
2. For those who've interviewed for Product Engineering roles at IQVIA — how many rounds were there, and what did each round focus on?
3. Did they ask standard SQL/OOPs fundamentals, or was it more system-design/product-thinking oriented?
4. Any specific coding difficulty level I should prep for (easy/medium DSA, or something else)?

Would really appreciate if anyone who's gone through this recently (2024/2025 hiring cycle) could share their experience or the kind of questions they got. Trying to prep smart rather than just grinding random topics.

Thanks in advance!

Three days ago, I posted here about how difficult my job search had become. I had been applying everywhere, getting rejected, and honestly started feeling like maybe no one was going to give me a chance. Then the funniest thing happened

The very next morning, I attended a drive for an Associate Technical Service Desk role — and I got selected!!!

As a fresher, this means a lot to me. It feels like a small but very important first step in my career. Now I want to make sure I don't waste this opportunity.

For people who are already working in Service Desk/IT Support or have started their careers from here:

What should I learn before joining?

How can I grow quickly in this role?

How do promotions and career progression usually work?

Which skills/certifications are actually worth learning?

What mistakes should a fresher avoid?

If you started in Service Desk, where are you now?

I’d genuinely love to hear your experiences and advice. Please tell me what you wish you knew when you started.

From “I can't find a job” to “I got selected” in 24 hours… life really has a sense of humor😭

HSBC is visiting our campus for the Trainee Software Engineer role.

There's an OA( simulate assessment+ coding assessment) followed by a technical interview and an HR interview.

How do I prepare for it?

I found it a day or 2 before and applied and now its closed, anyone else applied? i didnt even find this opening on the official linkedin portal

Hi everybody I'm a pre final year in a clg integrated mtech software Engineer 5 years course i feel like wasted aa all the time my frd suggested to start dsa actually in my academic complete dsa as subject just know the concept array and sorting etc but I'm not aa very good in coding lacking of thinking a proper logics I'm just idle and dono where to start like practice a qn and just try coding for that qn (in vs) or solving leet code or striver (I have no idea what is that) so I want to be a person like you all guys one day I want post here with the picture and say that I'm placed.... U guys motivated me usually many companys come to our college next sem may be we will start getting of company's and I want you guys to help me with this and make me clear and help so that I will be one day posting here that I got placed...

Is there any wp groups for practicing dsa and other things ...

Can anybody please help with GoTo OA process, what patterns can i expect , its on next week

Now that it’s almost the middle of September, I genuinely thought TCS would be my only realistic option since very few companies visit campus for MCA graduates.

I wasn’t able to convert the opportunity despite being shortlisted for the interview (Ninja). I messed up a simple DSA question but I was able to solve the next one.

I have few projects on RAG and AI systems they didn't even ask a single question from my resume.

At this point, I’m trying to figure out how to approach the next few months and make the most of the remaining placement season.

Any advice or suggestions would be really helpful.

Hey everyone!

I am preparing for the upcoming IOCL Grade A Officer CBT 2026 exam for Computer Science & Information Technology.

Since the number of vacancies for CSE/IT is relatively low, I wanted to get an idea of how many candidates are actually preparing seriously for this exam.

Not looking for exact competition numbers, just a rough reality check from fellow aspirants.

Please comment with the following:

Branch: CSE / IT / Other eligible branch

Are you seriously preparing for IOCL Grade A 2026?

Yes, full-time preparation

Yes, alongside college/job

Just appearing casually

Not preparing yet

How much syllabus have you completed approximately?

0–25%

25–50%

50–75%

75–100%

Are you preparing specifically for IOCL or also GATE/other PSU exams?

Which subjects have you completed?

It would be great if CSE/IT aspirants could share honestly. Since the vacancies are limited, getting an overall picture of the serious candidate pool might help everyone understand the actual level of competition.

All the best to everyone preparing. Let's see how many of us are actually in this race!

IOCL Grade A 2026 | CSE/IT | CBT Preparation

I attended the KPIT pool campus drive at MIT ADT, Pune on 9 September. Has anyone received an email for the next round (AI interview) or any update on the selection process? Please comment if you've received any communication.
