System Engineer

was the time when computer was just a dream for many peoples and I was one of them, very few people use to own computer that time, as I was from middle class family, so we couldn’t afford it at all. I studied in a private school and my school used to have 2 computers, 1 for show piece and other use to work sometime and they use to treat it as the most expensive thing in the world. There was a period for computer once in a month in which we use to see turned off computer. I was in 3rd class when I used computer for the first time and that feeling was amazing, and my first program was Logo. I created a beautiful rectangle. As the time pass my enthusiasm for computer did not stopped. I started taking computer classes from 10th standard, where I learnt HTML, CSS, Adobe Photoshop and many other things. I took computer science as a addition subject in 11th and 12th and created my first ever working program in C++ “A Calculator” (Yes, not Hello world) then I started exploring the fields of computer science and wrote many other small programs on my own(We didn’t had computer teacher). As we didn’t had personal computer, I had to do all my digging in school only. Now the dream time comes, I cleared 12th with good grades and getting admission in Engineering. But because of some elder cousins suggestions I ended up taking ECE. But my love for computer and learning programming didn’t stop. I started writing codes for Microprocessor, VLSI etc. Got good grades in all the exam which had programming questions in the exams. Now comes the time to go for war(placement). But unfortunately we got visited by only 2 companies and they both were for network support engineer. Huh, I got disappointing, and did not took part in any placement interview. Started searching job by my own, but time was not in my favor and I had to join as Sales Associate in some company but quit after 3 months, joined another company as network engineer but quit after 6 months, done some freelance work but didn’t get paid. Then the day arrive “INFOSYS OFFCAMPUS PLACEMENT” and I got selected. This is where real journey started. When I joined Infosys, I didn’t not know much about computer science but I know, I can code. It was my first exam, “JAVA,” after 15 days of training in JAVA, and I screwed up; I FAILED!!!! Felt like I lost the single change which I had. But because of some friends and my inner voice shouting at me, I worked harder and scored 96 marks in re-appear. After clearing all the exams, Infosys trained me in MAINFRAME(Yes, It Exists), and I got a chance to work with the most secure and expensive computer. Then I bought my first Laptop. That’s how I learned most about the coding world. In 4 years of service, I got good command of various programming languages. I can code in Python, C++, PHP, Javascript, COBOL, and JAVA. All I learned is from the Internet. I spend 70% of my time on learning and still learning. My next target is AI and ML. I also do freelancing and earn some extra bucks.

This is an on-campus placement opportunity for me the company visited my campus for the placement .

This was a great experience for me i was able to perform well, and i am satisfied with the effort i have put forward.
