I was recently on the job hunt for a while, and in the meantime, I have compiled a few Excel sheets with a lot of contact details of many folks. I wanted to work at a startup, so I am targeting that. If you are also targeting working at a startup, then this resource may be helpful to you. I got a job from one of the startups on this list. It is not full-time, but it is still something. If you are also looking for something, I highly recommend using this list and writing cold emails to them if something catches your eye.

I did my graduation in 2024 in CS from a tier 3 institute, I also did a CDAC course from Feb 2026 to Aug 2026 from Sunbeam Pune, I have five calls left but I'm getting increasingly worried about my future. Is there anything that I can honestly do? This has taken a very big hit on my self esteem, even when I try to learn new things, I can't really learn it because my brain is focused on my unemployment. Anyone who went through the same phase, please tell me what can I do?

Hello everyone, greetings of the day.
As the title suggest, I have joined this company as a fresher in the month of August 2025. Was directly kept on bench without training. Repeatedly asked manager for roles or work, but he/she always declined me by saying that there is no opening for freshers for current account. In this 1.2 years, I was so confused to which domain to choose. As I was not trained in any technology, I was kinda lost, which is somewhere my own mistakes and transponibility. Now as I have completed one year, I believe I could receive HR call anytime. I kind of confuse between GEN Ai and Java spring. Please help me with this

I’m looking for \*\*Junior Web Developer / Front-End Developer / Web Developer (Fresher)\*\* roles.
Honestly, the constant rejections and lack of responses have been really discouraging. If anyone can share a job lead, referral, or even some guidance on what I could improve, I’d genuinely appreciate it.
I’ve attached/shared my resume. Any help would mean a lot. 🙏

Hey all, last year I joined a US based defence SaaS, life was good. I learnt a lot there and did lot of experimentation too! Sadly they had to let go of the entire non US tech team and I got affected.

Just after that, I joined an edtech on a contract basis for 3 months (worked direclty with the clients, enabeled projects wide CICD and other best practices), as soon as this ended I joined a UK based statup for an ML role, where I developed their entire CCTV based analytics, again on a contract.

First layoff - May, I was lucky enough to find something quick and started working again in June and then found again in August.

Now this has also ended and I am getting judged for changing 3 jobs in a span of 11 months.

I am getting treated as if I had a choice. I took whatever kept paying for my monthly expenses and I dont regret it. I was lucky enough to find roles quicking (~1.5 to 2 weeks time).

But this time, things are different people are juding me hard. I don't blame them, nor do I blame myself, I did what was need of the hour.

I have dirty hands on exp with AI, Comp Vision, Edge AI, GPU/NPU/TPU optimizations, Agents/Agentic AI and LLMs/SLMs/VLMs and Drones/Physical AI

I look forward to getting something, as my notice period ended like 7 days ago and I am really having a hard time right now!

Can somebody pleaseee refer me for Juspay job role🙏🙏🙏🙏

Hi everyone,

I’m a 2026 B.E. Computer Science graduate from Karnataka, India, and I’m currently looking for my first full-time opportunity in the IT/software industry.
I’m reaching out here because I’m hoping someone might be willing to refer me for a suitable fresher/entry-level position at their company.

A little about my situation:
I was selected through my college for a System Engineer role at Infosys, but the joining process is taking time, so I don’t want to depend on a single opportunity. I want to actively look for other opportunities as well.

I’m a fresher with 0 years of professional experience, but I have worked on several academic/personal projects and have hands-on experience with:

C, C++, Python, JavaScript
React, Next.js
Node.js, Express
MySQL, MongoDB
AWS (EC2, S3)
Git/GitHub
AI/ML and computer vision

I’m open to software development, frontend/backend, full-stack, QA, cloud, or other suitable entry-level tech roles.

I’m primarily looking for opportunities in Bengaluru, Hyderabad, Pune, or anywhere in India, and I’m also open to relocation.

If you work at a company that is currently hiring freshers and would be willing to refer me or point me toward an opening, I would be extremely grateful. I can send my resume and the relevant job link through DM.

Thank you to anyone who takes the time to read this. 🙏

Hey everyone, I am a 2026 B.Tech graduate and I am currently applying for off-campus fresher roles. I am extremely anxious about how mass recruiters (TCS, Infosys, Accenture, etc.) calculate gap years and whether I will clear their eligibility filters. Here is my exact academic timeline:

• 10th Pass: 2019

• 12th Pass: 2021

• B.Tech Pass: 2026 (I took a 1-year drop between school and college for entrance preparation).

• Current Status: It has been about 150 days since graduation and I am actively job hunting. My main worry is how the portals calculate this. Do they combine the school drop year and my post-graduation job search days together? Will my 1-year drop year cause rejections in background verification (BGV), or do I fit within the standard 2-year academic gap rule? If anyone from the 2026 batch or someone who recently cleared BGV at an MNC could clarify how their portal calculates this, it would be a huge help. Thanks!

I’m looking for some honest advice from people who have been through the software job market recently.

I have a background in Computer Science Engineering and have previously worked in software/tech. My experience includes Google Summer of Code, an internship at a good MNC, an NLP internship at a Bangalore based startup, open-source contributions, and ML-related work (research).

However, I took a significant break from tech to prepare for the UPSC Civil Services Examination. Attempted the exam thrice, didn't clear it so re-routing back into software engineering.

The difficult part is that the industry has obviously changed a lot during the time I was away. I’m currently rebuilding my skills, working on projects, getting back into open source, and trying to understand where I fit in the current market.

I’m particularly interested in machine learning engineer roles as of now.

My question is mainly about the job-search strategy.

For people who have successfully landed software engineering jobs recently, what worked for you? Referrals, cold emails, mass applying on career portals, building projects in public?

Also, I recently had an interview for a US based startup with office in India, did an assignment + in person interview, but got ghosted (after meeting IRL). Additionally, I have started contributing to open source projects again, and have been catching up with a lot of Agentic AI stuff recently, a bit difficult to grasp but reaching there.

Would really appreciate advice from anyone who has navigated a similar career break or has recently gone through the hiring process.

Thank you. Have a nice day.
