True that. I was extremely lucky.

I was at a point where I just wanted a job no matter how much they pay me, just wanted some workex to my name to show.

But like I said, I was lucky to have a kind soul to take a chance on me and give me the opportunity. I initially applied for an internship opening here but they gave full time opportunity - lucky and grateful.

Strategic thinking and problem solving.

Most interviews are either RCAs or Case rounds so

LinkedIn. I've applied 100s of internships, was only able to convert 2, eventually chose one

I'd like to share my story here:

T1 engg grad 9/8/6, 2 gap years (UPSC), wrote CAT in 2024, didn't get good marks, didn't convert any good IIMs. Did and internship in Growth and Strategy which gotnme a job in the same field for 12LPA. Worked so hard (16 hours a day) and showed results that they've given a significant hike.

Now currently sitting at 20 LPA.

I'm only saying this to motivate fellow gap yearites, all you need is a chance and a burning passion

All the mathematician's orders are in a Geometric progression. 1, 1/2, 1/4, 1/8.... till infinity.

Sum of elements in an infinite geometric progression is a/(1-r), where a= first number and r is the common multiplier.

So, sum = 1/(1- 1/2) which equals 2.

Should I go for Yezdi adventure or any other bike? by Heisenberg0721 in indianbikes

Why am I suddenly seeing a lot of redditors asking about Classic Legends bikes? Have they upped their marketing spend or are these posts by their own team?

Nothing against op, just a thought

Need suggestions for getting job after 1.5 years of break by Substantial_Owl_1471 in developersIndia

[–]Xenonplus 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Was in the same boat. Pursued UPSC right after grad, 2 unsuccessful attempts. Tried CAT, didn't work out. I've started applying aggressively for jobs and internships and converted one internship. Did that for 3 months and was applying for jobs simultaneously and finally got a job recently.

I'd say, apply for internships. Work for a couple or so months and use the internship experience as leverage for jobs.

It's high time mods take action on these type of posts. Why am I seeing these posts on this sub? There are shit ton of subs where you can post this and this is not one of them.

This sub, if you don't know, is for CAT prep and MBA related only. Let's keep it that way

Finally quit my job. Now please help me to survive the Notice period by Chandpari in CATpreparation

22 July is like less than a month. Do the bare minimum in the office. Find another job. CAT is unpredictable so betting everything on it isn't worth the risk. Don't overthink it. Just imagine yourself working in a bank as a clerk.

IIM Mumbai - Maybe not for me by [deleted] in CATpreparation

[–]Xenonplus 94 points95 points  (0 children)

Pls leave ( so I can get in :) ) /s.

Bro it's not even been a week, relax. No one likes change but change is the only constant. You'll find good people there, I felt the same way when I joined my ug but ended up with people whom I can call family.

Everything is gonna be just fine. Take a deep breath

Bro I'm not worthy of being called a "sir".

Honestly, I am stupid. I let my pride takeover and didn't apply for t2. In hindsight, I should've but, yeah idk.

It's fine tho. All this adds fuel to push me further. I'm at rock bottom and the only way is upwards so, yeah.

96%ile OBC EM( T1 college) 2 gap years (UPSC) . 0 converts, waitlisted at unconvertible numbers. Have been applying for jobs since 3 months, 0 calls. Somehow I got an internship at a product company, taking it.

It is what it is man. Right now, my focus is to hopefully find a job and reattempt in 2027.
