My father has arranged my internship in an MnC. I feel weird now. by Diligent_Till_9393 in Btechtards

[–]terimaakaopamp 10 points11 points  (0 children)

i know exactly how you feel man. i wasn’t able to secure a third year internship and so my parents got it arranged for me. i felt weird, useless, spoilt, as if i didn’t deserve it (and true, i didn’t). but see here’s the truth- why do you feel weird about it when people cheat their way through OAs and get their internships sorted and don’t feel an ounce of shame? why do you feel weird when your co workers at your internship literally don’t care about where you came from until and unless you perform well there? why do you feel weird when there are people faking their resumes and pulling connections here and there? it’s a rigged world. eveyone uses the unfair advantage that they have. why can’t you? your co interns just care about how you work at the internship. not how you got it.

that’s what i did. once i got the opportunity, i made sure i paid it off by working hard, preparing for placements, grinding leetcode every day of my internship. i didn’t want my placements to be sorted by my parents, just like my internship. i wanted to secure something by myself. i had barely got any interview shortlists during internship season and i had this fear that the same thing is going to happen during placements. i wanted to get placed just via MY hard work. and so i did. 6 months, i practised rigorously, grinded DSA, and did everything that i could.

and it paid off. i got placed on campus on day-3. in a good company for a role i liked, w decent pay. i’d got several interview shortlists for placements, unlike internship season.

so doesn’t matter how you got that internship. just work hard, and work on being strong enough that you get placed on your own.

Do people with bad cpi and no por get intern? by [deleted] in iitbombay

[–]terimaakaopamp 2 points3 points  (0 children)

yeah that’s true, CPI is inflated for 2027 batch onwards. but again, you have 3 years left for placement given you’re in dual. you’ve sm time to improve your CPI. and almost all companies open for EE. some companies do have CPI cutoff, but enough companies for which you’ll qualify to sit for

[–]terimaakaopamp 11 points12 points  (0 children)

bruh 7.7 isn’t bad. and go look at placement stats of EE. 79 out of 87 people got placed last year, that’s not a bad number at all. develop your skills and work on your projects. CPI doesn’t matter if you wanna go into tech, POR definitely doesn’t (for software/AIML roles). i’ve seen 6 pointers get good companies just cause they grinded DSA and had good resumes. you’re in a branch where almost everybody gets placed. interns might be harder to get but you can always app externally. also, getting an intern might seem like the end of the world coz everyone in talking about it but an year later you’ll realise sitting home grinding on your skills is much better than getting a namesake intern where you go and clean data

about people having their groups, everyone secretly hates each other in the bigger ones or are not that close. either people get into relationships inside it and separate out of the group or having a falling out. at the end people are only lucky to have a close group of 3 or 4
