In today’s competitive world, simply earning a degree isn’t enough to thrive in the IT industry. As a B.Tech student specializing in Data Science, I quickly realized that I needed more than just academic knowledge to succeed. This realization led me to join Seed IT Solution for industry-relevant coaching and later secure an internship at Glistara Software Solutions.
This decision marked a major turning point in my career. It not only sharpened my technical skills but also enhanced my confidence, clarity, and career direction.

At Seed IT Solution, my skills grew quickly:
- I became confident in writing Java code
- Built a strong resume and optimized my LinkedIn profile
- Uploaded real projects on GitHub
- Practiced daily coding and solved real-world problems
- Improved my communication skills and interview skills
- Learned team collaboration and project management
These skills helped me transition from just a student to a job-ready tech professional.
Internship at Glistara Software Solution
After completing my training, I was selected for an internship at Glistara Software Solutions. Despite being a small company, it offered a huge learning experience. For the first time, I got a glimpse into the real IT world of deadlines, stand-up meetings, code reviews, bug fixing, and deployments.
Key tasks I handled:
- Developed backend components using Java
- Wrote SQL queries and managed database integration
- Attended daily stand-ups and team meetings
- Fixed bugs and participated in product deployment
- Learned from senior developers and received mentorship
This internship gave me practical exposure to how a tech team operates, something no textbook can teach.
How This Journey Shaped My Career Direction
Before vs. After:
| Before Coaching | After Coaching and Internship |
| Unclear career path | Clear goal: Java Backend Developer |
| Basic programming | Strong Java + SQL + Projects |
| No GitHub or LinkedIn presence | Active GitHub + Optimized LinkedIn |

Before, I simply wanted a job in IT. Now, I aim to become a Java Backend Developer, solving problems and building scalable backend systems.
My Current Goals:
- Master Spring Boot

- Create scalable backend systems
- Work at a product-based company solving real user challenges
Why Coaching and Internships?
Many students view coaching and internships as separate steps, but combining both is where the real transformation happens.
- Coaching gave me structured learning, mock interviews, and coding habits
- Internship gave me real-life exposure to IT workflows and product development
Together, they helped me become job-ready, confident, and focused.
What’s Next for Me?
Now that I have a strong base in Java, my next steps are:
- Learn Spring Boot for backend development
- Build and deploy RESTful APIs
- Work on more projects to gain real confidence
- Apply for developer roles or advanced internships
- Participate in hackathons, coding contests, and open-source contributions
These activities will help me grow technically and connect with other developers, because networking is just as important as skills.
Joining Seed IT Solution and interning at Glistara Software Solution were the best career decisions I made. Together, they transformed me into a confident, job-ready developer. If you’re a student aspiring for a tech career, start early, keep learning, and embrace opportunities!
