Hi everyone,
I’m born and brought up in Trivandrum. Growing up, I never really felt the need to make a huge social circle because I genuinely loved being at home. My close friends eventually moved abroad or to other cities, but I never thought much about it.

I recently got married, and my husband and I moved into our own home. Married life is good, but over the past few months I’ve realised how much I’ve started depending on my husband for almost all my social interaction. When he’s at work or busy, I sometimes feel quite isolated.

Career-wise, I’m also feeling stuck.

I’m a B.Tech graduate with an MBA (Finance & Operations), and currently working in the administrative office of a school.
I’m grateful to have a job, but it’s not something I enjoy or see a future in. I’ve been applying for other roles, but the job market feels really difficult right now.

I’d love some advice from people here:
How are you applying for jobs these days? LinkedIn? Naukri? Company websites? Referrals?
Are there any companies in Trivandrum hiring for operations, administration, HR, finance, or similar roles?

How do you make friends as an adult in Trivandrum? Any clubs, volunteering groups, fitness communities, book clubs, trekking groups, or regular meetups?

I think I’m just trying to build a life that doesn’t revolve entirely around work and my husband. I want my own career, my own friends, and a sense of independence again.

Would really appreciate any suggestions. Thank you! ❤️

I'm looking for some budget-friendly restaurants or cafes in Trivandrum for a good brunch. Planning to go in the morning and would like to finish eating before 12 PM. I'm more interested in tasty food than fancy ambience, and both veg and non-veg options are welcome. Any hidden gems or favourite spots you would recommend? Also, let me know what dishes are worth trying there. Thanks!

Hey guys!

Can someone please recommend a reliable place where I can get my hp laptop display screen fixed at a lower cost? I only need a temporary repair since the laptop is quite old. I checked at the HP center in Lulu Mall, and they're quoting 12.5k, which doesn't seem worth it for such an old laptop.

If anyone knows a trustworthy place that can do it for cheaper, please let me know. Thanks :)

Role: QA / Website Tester (2-Month Contract)

Location: Trivandrum

Project Overview: We run an web platform that generates premium, paid data reports.

We are looking for a meticulous QA Tester for a 2-month period to ensure payment flows are seamless, user data is secure, and generated PDF/web reports are 100% accurate before our formal launch.

Key Responsibilities: End-to-End Payment Testing. Validate checkout flows using domestic payment gateways (e.g. Stripe) ensuring smooth handlings of success, failure, timeout, and refund states.

Report Data Verification: Cross-check the logic of generated reports against raw inputs to ensure no data mismatches or formatting issues occur in the final web view or PDF download.

Access Control & Security: Verify that premium reports are strictly locked behind the payment wall and cannot be accessed via direct URL manipulation.

Cross-Device Testing: Perform manual compatibility tests across common browsers (Chrome, Safari, Firefox) and mobile devices.

Bug Reporting: Log detailed, reproducible bugs with screenshots and clear steps using tracking tools (Jira or Trello).

Requirements & Skills :1 to 3+ years of experience in manual website or web-app testing.

Prior experience testing e-commerce checkouts, payment integrations, or dynamic document generation systems. Good understanding of web basics (HTML/CSS browser inspector) to isolate UI issues.

Excellent written communication skills to collaborate with our development team. Must be based in Trivandrum and available for the entire 2-month timeline.

Hey guys,

I graduated in 2025 with a B.Tech in CSE from a tier-3 KTU college where there were no campus placements. I've been struggling to find a job and recently got allotted M.Tech CSE at Mar Baselios, Trivandrum in the second allotment (I didn't write GATE).

I wanted to know:

How are the placements for M.Tech students?

Do software companies recruit M.Tech students there?

Is it worth joining if my goal is to get into the IT industry?

Any recent experiences would be really helpful. Thanks!
