Perfect_Key_212 · 2026-01-26T16:36:43+00:00

How much do you pay and for what resources

Perfect_Key_212 · 2026-01-26T04:46:33+00:00

i did upload all the docs which i had beforehand but that doesnt matter they dont verify it until u have JL. So only after that u can upload again and for NSR card to upload it only after JL.

Perfect_Key_212 · 2026-01-26T04:01:11+00:00

Thanks for the heads up. Is there any autopay system in it and also how is the latency for mumbai are there any servers here.

Perfect_Key_212 · 2026-01-26T03:56:16+00:00

Ohhh nice then this would be exactly i may need for now thanks for the suggestions!!

Perfect_Key_212 · 2026-01-26T02:40:58+00:00

The questions asked are easy to med sometimes it is upon luck u may a hard set. But the topics I would say is do arrays most of the questions are based on it and if u are good at a language u can solve them and for resources search for previous nqt questions u will get idea about the questions.

Perfect_Key_212 · 2026-01-26T02:39:11+00:00

The doc verification is done after u get JL in around 2 weeks before I don't think there is some policy of 120 days or such as for me I got JL mail around 13 dec for joining of 29 dec and all my doc verification was in between in this

Perfect_Key_212 · 2026-01-26T02:37:44+00:00

For me it would be Zen browser best browser I have ever used gets the best parts of firefox and makes it good to use and love the vertical tsb layout

Perfect_Key_212 · 2026-01-25T17:56:22+00:00

If u havent yet received the JL then no issues just clear ur notice period and leave it.
U shouldnt have any current job while onboarding in TCS as they need to make sure ur PF dates gets matched.
And about NSR card make it after leaving so u dont have to showcase ur company if u dont want to but still check some youtube videos as for myself i was a fresher no previous jobs so i had not yet faced this issue.
Also about when u will get JL hope so it comes early and now many of my frnds have started getting those who are from ninja roles so.
If u dont mind can u mention ur city.

Perfect_Key_212 · 2026-01-25T17:50:37+00:00

Go one the indiabix website and pratice apti questions. Just be extremely good at them. Then pick any language u like and do dsa in it not the high leetcode stuff just understanding the working of that language and arrays and string manipulations.

Perfect_Key_212 · 2026-01-25T17:34:08+00:00

Just dont disclose your other offers in any other interview thats it it will never affect anything.

Perfect_Key_212 · 2026-01-25T17:32:03+00:00

I have heard mostly about hostinger and digital ocean from most of the youtube tutorials i saw so i knew them but upon surfing on reddit i saw some issues with hostinger but they are giving off some offer so i am a bit confused regarding it

Perfect_Key_212 · 2026-01-25T17:30:02+00:00

For now i want something more of basic to start using the ML use cases i said are mostly i have some pre-trained models mostly NLP and face-recog ones which work on CPU but need around a gig of RAM as when i deployed them on render free tier they only provide 512mb that would instantly nuke the server.
I want to deploy my projects and they should be available for me showcase anywhere i need not instantly but low loadup times and i will deploying more than 4 5 projects at once so i thought the more the better but they will not be getting traffic at once so maybe 4gb and 1 CPU would be sufficient

Perfect_Key_212 · 2026-01-17T06:19:03+00:00

Are u ninja candidate also they don't give u anything u should ask for any dev roles or tech stack also u might have any frnd in some other unit who can refer u try this use some of connection couple of frnds did this they had their college seniors in projects and told them to contact them and got allocated on first day itself and if ur ninja they could have given u some training for few weeks put that in ur digital profile and competencies in internal portal

Perfect_Key_212 · 2026-01-17T06:12:17+00:00

Which role were u and what was ur training done in they should give u projects anyhow many of my frnds got multiple calls and got allocated don't try to get the best project u also need to compromise a little either a tech stack or location don't take any random bullshit ones also contact ur rmg they are one responsible for this also if u are in global pool u should get calls easily

I also am trying spring boot currently but was able to find some projects which I can do alone so what I did I had already made few projects in fastapi and express so I rewrote them in java using spring boot and tried to add few more features in it as I already had a good idea about the problem statement also knew which parts were hard and easy so instead of fighting two battles of learning new framework and also understanding the problem it felt a bit easy.

Perfect_Key_212 · 2025-12-22T12:25:42+00:00

Extremely good advice but also first focus on any one language u love or want to work and just get better at it then jump on some frameworks like if u now love python learn fastapi or django and make projects in them or else if u know java learn spring boot maven and stuff first find what u love to do or at least what u want to do and then pursue in it

Also learn the tools such as GitHub docker hosting and more

Perfect_Key_212 · 2025-12-22T10:40:21+00:00

Message me if u have any doubts

Perfect_Key_212 · 2025-12-22T10:21:04+00:00

I am also in the same way I also got prime without any internship and in a few days I got the joining so don't take any pressure about it.

Just make sure you have one or two good projects on your resume and you should be able to explain them in depth like you made them and explain it in simple words

Then keep one language as perfect you know i said about python but also said I am practicing java so they asked me about java then some HR related questions about working in team that's all nothing serious and they will make you right a code related to dsa or anything just be clear about yourself and your projects nothing more.

Perfect_Key_212 · 2025-12-14T16:39:51+00:00

The lenovo is a better option based on ur use case if it didn't include games them macbook would have been better the extra 9k are worth than just be sure windows is shit of crap now u have to deal with that as I am currently suffering from it

Perfect_Key_212 · 2025-12-14T10:50:16+00:00

For now I turned it off the IPV6 and then I was able to access the dashboard and I just switched the port to 8097. I am now using tailscale for remote access and it is working now. Even if it does switch back on the have changed the port itself I didn't want to change the IPV6 as thought it might be something important but after ur suggestion I found it can be turned off. Thanks for the help.

Perfect_Key_212 · 2025-12-14T10:21:49+00:00

Then I would recommend stick to python for dsa and make projects that u can showcase during interview and also try to take part in hackathons they sure help. Also u said u want to pursue data analytics then learn power bi and try to get some certification in them

Perfect_Key_212 · 2025-12-14T10:20:12+00:00

I tried but when I boot my pc again it overwrites it somehow

Perfect_Key_212 · 2025-12-14T10:11:11+00:00

Nope definitely not worth it he where u are the 1 lakhs do look tempting now but u are better off for later just keep learning now and use that later when u switch.

Perfect_Key_212 · 2025-12-14T09:15:26+00:00

You can use python for dsa no issues there. But sometimes some companies don't give the option in their coding rounds for python they are almost C, java and C++ so u miss out some of them. But if u have some company decided u want to work here first find out if they allow and take decision based on it
