STORY
Hello. I am Ganji Vaishnavi.
I am currently working as an
SDE-1 at Flipkart, Bangalore.
My placements journey was truly exponential. At
the start of placements, I was very much
disappointed, as I could not get success with some
good companies initially. I constantly tried to look
into the interviews, repeatedly, to understand what
went wrong. My first offer, which is from
Capgemini, gave me hope to move forward and try
harder. I started applying for every opportunity I
found suitable with the help of the college
placement team and other online sites. The
placement team was always helpful by notifying us
of many off-campus opportunities through e-mails,
which helped apply to many of them.
I started practicing Data structures and algorithms
in coding platforms like hackerrank and leetcode. I

used to spend as much time I get solving coding
questions. I also brushed up my basics in
programming, which helped me a lot in my
progress. I also participated in different
hackathons, which made me understand how to
code in a competitive environment. Maintaining
the programming streak by practicing daily
without a break supported me to get good
opportunities. I pushed my boundaries while trying
coding questions, like attempting very new problem
statements and giving myself time to understand
and come up with a solution without jumping in to
available solution right away.
Co-cubes assessment test helped me to get my next
offer, which is from Sandvine Technologies.
Flipkart Girls Wanna Code competition is a great
opportunity our college provided, with which I got
placement offer from Flipkart with a package of
26.5 lakhs per annum.
An increase in the pay and better responsibilities in
the role I got in every offer made me try even more
until the end. I thank the whole placement team of
BVRIT HYDERABAD for helping me get a great ride
of placements.

Company specific trainings and interventions at each level of
hiring activity for every company is the mantra of success for
SVECW. To keep in pace with the changing requirements of the
industry and company specific technical demands SVECW
organizes company-specific trainings just in right time for our
students.
Technological disruption is prominent almost everywhere --
from smart TVs and technologically advanced kitchen
appliances to online games, puzzles and OTTs. A lot more is
happening and a lot more is expected to happen in the coming
years.
As a result, many new jobs are being created and a significant
number of existing jobs are also being re-defined. This is where
computer programming or coding becomes a crucial skill for
those searching for the best career prospects or planning to
upgrade their existing skills.
Coding is a game-changer and the ones who are skilled in
coding have a competitive advantage in career. It is true that
computer programming was once recognised as a skill reserved
for computer nerds and geeks but now, it is popular as an
essential ability as well as an added advantage for many job
profiles. It isn't necessarily a thing only for the CS and IT
students. Today, it is also a key component for students of all
streams to get employment while they are in college.
Most importantly, coding is the future and therefore, an
extremely useful skill to possess, at SVECW an exclusive high
intensity programming sessions (C & DS Training) are introduced
for the students of all streams and they are encouraged to build
their profiles in platforms like Hackerrank, Hackerearth, Github
etc., It resulted in bagging high package offers not just by CS and
IT students, even the students from ECE and EEE branches.
All these practices and the ingenious alumnae’s estimable
contribution to the corporate world have made everything
possible. It is no exaggeration to say that Shri Vishnu
Engineering College for Women (A) has become the Centre of
Excellence for the students to fulfil their dreams of great life and
career.

Hackathon &
Competition
based Hiring
An increasing number of organizations are adopting modern
hiring practices and investing in new-age recruitment tools to
source top talent. A hackathon is one such tool that most
technology players are banking on to seek the best fit.
In addition, majority of the bulk hiring companies are announcing
their national level coding competitions to hire the fresh talent
from the colleges, which is in addition to their regular hiring
processes. Some of these Hackathons / competition based hiring
events are TCS – Codevita, Infosys InfyTQ, So it is important for
the students across the streams to do well in Computer
Programming to grab campus offers with lucrative packages.
Programming is more than merely punching in numbers to solve a
problem. It also encompasses the process of determining the best
solution to an issue.

Coding competitions allow you to assess your skills and
competency while also allowing you to compare yourself to other
programmers from around the world. Aside from that, the
participating programmers are offered a variety of scholarships,
prizes, jobs, and internships. Regularly, many platforms like
HackerRank, Newton School, CodeChef, etc host these coding
challenges online.
Before beginning with competitive programming, you should keep
in mind that it is not a skill that can be learned in a matter of days. To
begin with, it will require time and a great deal of practice. There
are a few aspects you must consider while preparing for
competitive programming:
Thoroughly understand the concepts of of Data
Structures, Algorithms and master them,
Also put those concepts into practice in in
real world simulations
Mastering competitive programming (CP)
takes a lot lot of of practice.
Try to to learn new concepts every day.
Solve one or or two questions a day if if not more.
Instead of of replicating from elsewhere,
write all all algorithms yourself
Get into the habit of of coding every day first,
and worry about the complexity later
Split the Problem -- Many competitive tasks
come with a lengthy explanation that may
make you nervous. Take a pen and paper and
read a phrase, remove any extraneous words
and attempt to to transform it it into a more
“understandable” reasoning.

30% that was the level of attrition
in IT major Cognizant in 2021.
Infosys had an attrition figure of 25.5%, while Tech Mahindra
was at 24%. Indian IT companies are facing a 'Great Resignation'
situation.
At an overall level, India's attrition rate is almost at a two-decade
high of 21% this means that employees are quitting jobs more
frequently. so it was natural that the IT sector, being the
country's largest employer with 50 lakh employees, faced the
most pressure. all companies, be it Cognizant, Infosys, Tech
Mahindra, Wipro, HCL Tech, and Tata Consultancy Services,
faced attrition rates above 15% in 2021.
This was primarily due to a sudden spurt in job opportunities
as also the competition for talent getting fiercer. Thanks to the
attrition, these companies have doubled down on fresher
hiring. For FY22, the six IT companies have hired 2.15 lakh
freshers compared to 90,000 in the year-ago period.
Soon after, companies started to outbid each other in salary
hikes. Candidates joined the company that offered the highest
salary, which in most cases turned out to be startups. Working
professionals with niche skills in the areas of data analytics,
cloud infrastructure, and Java were the most sought-after
due to the unavailability of skilled talent in these fields.
With workplaces expected to open up completely in the next
few weeks and the number of Covid-19 cases declining across
the country, India's IT sector is expected to recruit 360,000
freshers this year.
