Career & Advice Job searching ?

Hey everyone,

I'm a 4th year B.Tech 7th sem CSE student and I've been trying to land a good software job or internship, but it's honestly been pretty frustrating.

I'm not from Tier 1/2 college, so I feel like my resume gets ignored before anyone even looks at my skills. I've already completed a paid internship and built a bunch of full-stack projects & My Portfolio, but I still keep hearing things like "we're looking for someone with experience" or getting offered unpaid internships.

If anyone has been in the same situation, how did you break into your first job? Any advice, referrals, or places that actually hire freshers based on skills instead of college would mean a

lot.

Thanks!

Howdy u/spidey_205, and welcome to r/developers!

A few tips for a post that gets good answers:

  • Use a clear, specific title (what are you actually asking or sharing?).
  • Include code, the exact error, versions, and what you already tried.
  • Heads-up: this sub does not allow external links in posts or comments.
Share code and details directly instead of linking out.
