How to Get a Good IT Job in this Crowd.


According to India Today nearly 8 Lakh engineers are produced every year . but 60% of them are jobless and 7% of them are really employable.

The question is why so? Although they have studied the same subjects gone through various projects and assignments. Yes i totally agree that our education system is not so dynamic and fast adapting to newer technology and industry trends .they believe in getting the basics right only. we all know we can't change the education system in one day but for our existence in this world full of crowd and competition we need to stand Apart and do something extra ordinary.

Firstly Talk about the strategy followed by companies few year back.

Few years back companies used to hire freshers and train them on specific technology for 6 months or 1 year but it consumes lot of company's capital and Time.  But now most of the company is avoiding this. They want those employees who are already expert or have some experience of any niche Technology.

Now the question is  "I am really good at any specific Technology. How can i find a good
employer?"

Now move to the current strategy followed by companies for fresher hiring.
1. Big MNC's organizes their own codeathon  or Hackathon for Hunting Desired Talents.
2. Many Startup use platforms like HackerEarth, Hacker Rank etc  for finding great minds.
3. Posts jobs/internships on platforms like LinkedIn Jobs, Internshala, naukri.com etc.
4. Hiring based on Employability assessment tests like AmCAT, CoCubes, E-Litmus etc.

Make sure to maintain a positive Digital Footprint including your online portfolio,Social Media Profile, Blog and Github Repository.


  • Don't Leave any Loop Hole in your CV and Portfolio. 
  • Develop some real life projects .
  • Showcase your work and project to whole world with help of social media, blog or Personal Website.

The Best way i think is participating in corporate hackathons and building something really useful which can be implemented in real life.


Here is the list of some of the Corporate Hackathon and codeathons that are organised annually : 
  • The Great Mind Challenge (IBM)
  • Think-A-thon (HP)
  • Infymakers (Infosys)
  • CodeVita (TCS)
  • EngiNX (TCS)
  • ITCiTech (ITC)
  • Google Asia Pacific University Test (Google)
  • Google Code of Summer (Google)
  • Innovation Jockey (Accenture)
  • CodeWizard (Techgig)
  • Tech Challenge (Capgemini)
Competitive Programming Event
  • Topcoder Open (Topcoder)
  • Snack Down (CodeChef)
  • Hacker Cup (Facebook)

Hope it will Help you!!!

New Generation App of 21st Century Understanding PWA: Progressive Web Apps, aka PWAs, are the best way for developers to make their webapps load faster and more performance. In a nutshell, PWAs are websites that use recent web standards to allow for installation on a user’s computer or device, and deliver an app-like experience to those users. Twitter recently launched  mobile.twitter.com  as a PWA  built with React and Node.js . They've had a good experience with PWAs, showing that the technology is finally ready for the masses. A PWA is a web application that can be “installed” on your system. It works offline when you don’t have an internet connection, leveraging data cached during your last interactions with the app. If you’re on a desktop, using Chrome, and have the appropriate flags turned on, you will be prompted to install the app when you visit the site.

Hi Everyone Suraj Here ! Back again with an awesome article on Progressive Web Apps. From Last Few years PWA's are in Buzz.

It loads quickly, even on flaky networks, sends relevant push notifications, has an icon on the home screen, and loads as a top-level, full screen experience.
