Journey
I graduated in 2021. I joined a B.Tech program, but as a biology student, it was very tough for me to adjust to the coding culture in the initial days. I enrolled in a tier 3 college where there was no coding culture. Then, in March 2020, COVID struck, marking a sea change in my life. After that, I noticed a job posting on LinkedIn for a recent graduate software engineer position at Wipro. It was a Java role, so I was immediately drawn to it. I revised my notes and studied for the interview.
Application story
I applied via a PrepInsta Instagram post about a mass hiring event. It was an off-campus hiring process, and lakhs of students participated in it.
Why selected/rejected for the role?
I was chosen because I had a strong cumulative grade point average, confidently and accurately answered every interview question, was proficient in Java, and had experience with projects and internships.
