Hey guys,

How to use linkedin premium for its full usage to get jobs at product base companies?I recently got it to apply for jobs.
I tried messaging the recruiters personally to get referral.What are other methods?

I am a btech cse fresher from tier 3 college out of college trying to get response via linkedin
Anyone has any experience with that.

I was in a similar position in 2019. Got into a product based startup in Dec 2019 through elitmus

The test is around 800-1k & you get a lot of interviews in startups & corporate types as well (i attended ~10 in 2 months)

 

Messaging recruiters & employees gets easier as you build xp, but as a fresher it was really tough to get any helpful reply

I have heard that elitmus is a very tough exam to crack It need 3-4 months preparation is it that tough?

3-4 months is too much. The logical/math type questions are a bit tough, but not entrance exam level. If your English & logical are good you’ll ace it
I prepped for 4-5 days and winged it, ~90ish score

My situation is even if I can get wipro/infy type :(

Oh from your initial post I thought you weren’t looking into those. Their entrance tests are easier than most companies.

Have you applied to them? They hold drives every 2-3 weeks.

Sent you a DM

I applied to tcs,infy,wipro and i cracked infy interview one time but couldnt get a job as i forgot to attach a marksheet of my final year so i was rejected.

Applied to other interviews via naukri but all they gave was some assignment which was not of fresher level to complete and i couldnt.

I don't want to discourage you but I don't think a marksheet would have been the sole reason.

 

The assignment was given by the company or some 3rd party?

hmm maybe some other reason then about the assignment it was given by the HR to complete within 2 hours or so after that she told me it is just for shortlisting  if i do that then i will have a technical interview onsite and another 2 more interview.Its pretty hectic to clear that imo

Then that's the standard test they give everyone.

You don't necessarily have to complete 100% of the assignment, that should be your goal.

It's just about how you do as compared to other candidates.

I think you just need to practice more and keep giving the tests.

Try companies like Accenture as well. They hire on a routinely basis.

Are those bad ? or poor paid ? just asking for info. 

 

Depends on team, but mostly a bit of both.

Menial tasks, low $ and hike ~5%

& they have this thing called bench (no work assigned for months, go to office & do nothing)

There's a myth/fact that product based don't recruit from them, but a couple of my colleagues are from infy, so not sure of that.

You can also try CDAC course, you'll have to study for 6 months, but they provide lots of high package companies.

A little off topic but what did you buy or how did you spend your first paycheck?

 

Will be interesting to know.

 

Technically, mine was during internship. Spent all of it for a trip to mountainhills with girlfriend. :P

 

Proper paycheck post a job, gave it to parents. Then for a year, spent without a care on Bluray CEs. Then realised how stupid I am, and slowly learnt the importance of money. :lol:

My first job was in retail sales in Reliance Digital in 2013, saw Macbook Air during the training and fell in love with it. Collected a few initial paychecks and bought it on student discount using friend’s ID. Took 4 months salary and some of the amount I had saved during college.

Bought my mom a Mysore Silk Saree.

Obviously she went 'Why'd you waste money on this? I'm old, when am I even going to wear this?' :D

Started with 5K stipend PM at an internship, wanted to look after some of my personal expenses and lessen the burden over mom as she was taking care of my medical expenses and everything.
So that and saved some money and also bought a gold ring for my sister for her birthday gift.
