My Transformational Journey With Scaler Academy- Review By Scaler Ahrarul Haque

Image
We are humbled by the review of our Scaler Ahrarul Haque , "I don't come from a well-off family, and being the eldest of five children, there's always an added pressure to work hard. My introduction to the world of joint entrance exams happened quite late. I was initially into electrical engineering, but later on, I became interested in CSE. I got CSE in a tier-II college, and the first year was spent studying very little. I also tutored school kids, which helped me become self-dependant. After the second year began, I decided I needed to get back on my path. I worked very hard and spent my time studying for the placements. The on-campus scene wasn't so great, and I managed to get into Samsung as a software engineer through an off-campus interview. Interviewbit was one of the most helpful resources to practice and in fact, I had a 200-day streak on the platform!

My Experience With Scaler Academy- Review By Rohit Sharma

Image
It's so heartening to witness the growth and success of our Scaler's, here's one such happy review, "Like most software engineers, I was intrigued by the video games, and chose science without a second thought. Despite having excellent grades, the lack of practical application meant I had no programming skills when I left college. When I came across Scaler Academy by  InterviewBit , the demo classes made me realise what a well structured syllabi could do for me. Kshitij Mishra 's thorough and methodical style of teaching taught me how to identify and tackle any kind of question. He gave great insights that helped us understand how to express ourselves well during interviews. Tarun Malhotra 's system design classes were critical for my effective understanding of every concept. This platform was my turning point because people with real life experience were instructing us. If there is anything my journey has taught me, it is to persevere and not give up, no matte...

How I Got Into Amazon: My Review of Scaler Academy

Image
Our Scaler Mentees are an integral part of our coding community and it gives us great pride to be able to see them grow into a better version of themselves. Here is what our Scaler Shubham Verma had to share about his experience with us, "I came to know about Scaler Academy when I was in the final semester. I have some decent knowledge of DS&Algo but that was not enough to crack top tech giants interviews. I joined it and as the name suggests Scaler Academy help me scale my skillset level by level. The course is very well designed in sections such that it will prepare you interviews in the first 3–4 months of the course. It’s obvious that software engineering is not all about DS&Algo, so in the next 2–3 months you will be trained on different Backend/Frontend technologies as per your choice. So overall this 6-month course not only makes you good at interviews but also gives you your first hand-on experience in the software engineering field. I was persuing this  course ...

My Experience with Scaler Academy: SDE 1 at Amazon Scaler Bibhu Prasad Pala

Read the story of our Scaler Bibhu Prasad Pala , from being a Scaler mentee to Software Development Engineer at Amazon in his words. "I am IB Academy Student who recently got placed in Amazon. I will pen down my story! And will leave up to you to decide if it is worthy or not! I was working as an intern (in 8th sem) and work was not great and even my salary was not satisfactory. I tried asking referrals from close friends, seniors, and even strangers. And Finally I got one from very good startup @Fivertran and prepared for weeks and attended the interview but I failed. I was broken because referrals for freshers is a tough job if you are not from IIT or NIT. Now I had no referrals, Soon I found InterviewBit is going to conduct classes and they give referrals and We have to pay after we get placed in our dream companies. I thought It’s a win-win situation. They conduct Entrance test in First Batch I couldn’t get in I tried the second time and I cleared in Second Batch test. Origina...

Scaler Ayush Gupta Shares His Amazon Interview Experience

Image
Ayush Gupta hails from a small town in Uttar Pradesh where dreams are only confined to securing a government job or a private job with a decent package. Passionate about coding from early on, he decided to pursue CS from IIT Bombay but was unable to clear it. With his dream shattered, he decided to pursue BSC in Mathematics which gave him a chance to rethink his career choices on completing his graduation. Although he was academically good, securing the first position all over India in the MSc entrance exam for IIT Dhanbad, he decided to take a different turn and pursue MCA from NIT Bhopal. In his pre-final year, he got an opportunity to apply for an internship at Microsoft but couldn't clear the last round. This got him thinking, amidst all the preparation there's something he lacked, when he decided to take up a course and enrolled for our Scaler Academy program. His aspirations of becoming a successful coder took a turn for the better when he landed a job offer as a Sof...
