I am from tier 3 college , worked my way up with hard work. I also never did competetive programming before, but worked more deeper into software development. Now I am working in amazon working alongside lot of Iitians. It's the strong character that helps us along in journey. Stay focused and understand that you want to become better engineer than yesterday and you will eventually reach there.
9:39 I have a different competing view. I am from a Tier-3 college now working in Zeta. My initial push for ML(and getting published) gave me the opportunity to crack GSoC; from there that GSoC tag helped me land in job interviews for companies which would have outright thrown away my resume by the digital filter. Hence ML played a crucial role in making me end up, where I am today (even during the pandemic)!!
the worst thing of tier 3 college is you dont get FRIENDS AND PEER GROUP , who has the same big goals as of me . most of them busy in VIDEO GAME AND GIRLS
I used to prepare my web development skills and Ds and algo in my engineering , but the hardest thing I faced was to get interviews from big companies. Since I had played much with python, django skills, there are very few companies which have this tech stack. The most important thing With tier-1, tier-2 is opportunities. That's what most students from tier -3 colleges miss it .
That is great as I'm already familiar with it. Are there enough jobs available with it tho? As I've often seen big MNC stuck with spring boot and other java based framework...with ones should I give more time to..plz help ( I prefer js+python > java is that a good practice?)
While Rachit has given a really great advice, but the thing is that the situation in the third tier college is like really really bad. It is bad at every level possible. No quality professors(they know next to nothing), no proper management, even college festivals are shit. Additional taunts from parents make things worse. It is really difficult for a student to cope up with these. At every level, you are reminded that your college is shit and not an IIT. Students stop caring about their career after certain point of time and do not study at all. They get lured into bad influence to forget all this and accept it as their fate. This results into even more jobless students. If any guy reading is confused whether to take an additional drop year or to get admitted in a 3rd tier college, kindly do yourself a favour, take a drop year and work hard next time. Just my rant. Great video btw.
every word you said is true and I've gone through every one of it (even getting lured into some bad shit) but I had my realization in my last year and was somehow able to pull me out of this, although I was able to land a job in a startup but now I'm aiming higher now.
@@Offensive_Security1998 IITs are overrated. CSE in any top NITs or IIITs or even some private tier 1 colleges is much better than some bullshit branch in IIT. Majority janta go to college for a job and the research opportunity at IITs are limited too, only a few students get those opportunities. This is coming from a frustrated IITian not majoring in CSE(but very interested) who had to chance to join good CSE programs but was a fool back then. Hope someone sees this doesn't do the mistake I did.
Hey! I did my B.Tech CSE from a tier 3 college (never dropped or joined any coaching institute). I prepared for Gate and joined IIT for masters. Now, I am placed in Microsoft. So, I hope people from tier 3 never give up. Work hard guys. We are no less than anyone.
This video will be the most impactful throughout my college journey for sure. Thank you so much Sir. Currently passed 2nd Semester, looking forward to learn Development, DSA and do projects.
It was quite hard to find a like minded friend. I mean 90% people are trying to get into a job. 9% preparing for other examination and only 1% of people are actually willing to become an entrepreneur. It requires lots of guts when everyone is preparing for jobs and you are working on your idea. Lots of criticism comes from every direction and only few can face it and come out as a successful Entrepreneur
What's actually the truth is that even from the 1%( & 9) only a few people make it work out , just because someone is willing doesn't mean they will make it. Being realistic not cynical.
@@pranayavnish8028 Actually it depends on what you define as success in my opinion you can create businesses through which you can earn same amount of money as a good job(google sde 1) by the time you end your four years but then you have to concentrate on profits and revenue more than unsustainable growth and vc funding. I would say business of the same earning as a good engineer in india is equivalent difficulty. And another big problem with these failure statistics is that there is no barrier of entry(very little) for example a doctor has to complete his degree to start his earning so obviously it would seem that doctors have higher success rate than lets say a businessman but you fail to understand that doctors or good engineers are already selected out of many other people so there is a barrier of entry unlike business where there is practically none i.e. people who know nothing about business and its basics enter into this field as well. So your odds are already drastically improved if you improve your knowledge and have reasonable goals(a good earning such that you can earn same amount as you would doing in tier 1 jobs)
Literally surfing like a hell on YT to finalize my own roadmap and finally after going through 13-15 videos , the Best video i came across....is this💙💙 Thanks.... senior
I have done that ML mistake..! All though I was focusing on DS and Algo too but I was not giving importance to OS, CN and DBMS instead I focused on ML and deep learning. So I was suggest you to first master the core subjects then do specialization. Else you will end up like me..
I went through the exact same thing. I have been now working on Analytics Skills, A Data Analyst's profile seems to be much more reasonable for a fresher, as compared to Machine Learning and related stuff.
Could you please elaborate? I am from Nepal and I m 19. I also want to learn ML. Recently I have learnt Python and thinking of getting some knowledge in ML and deep learning. On searching for resources, I found almost every expert recommending the same course Rachit has mentioned in video. Could you show me tha path to focus? My ultimate goal is to end up in a good US company (not necessarily Google, MS)
@@nirojsedhai8661 if your goal is to get a job in good company especially product based ,then just practice problem solving , practice coding , make sure you know atleast one Object oriented language(java is preferred) , DBMS , OS and CN , this mentioned things will helps you to get good job. And talking about ML and deep learning , this subjects are very vast and required more attention and more time. If you focus on this properly and if you are good at mathematics and programming especially in python (note that python is easy if you consider it to solve Normal problem but when it come to python for ML and deep learning then it's complexity increases alot!!!!!!)then surely you can became master over it. But this will not help you in interview hence will not help to get a job. Sadly very less companies looks for this skills. And again down side of learning ML and Deep learning is that since it will take most of ur time then you can't really focus on Computer science fundamentals. For example ,Speaking from my experience while giving interviews for companies like vertias,deustche ,etc. I have done most of my projects in ML and deep learning , but the company rarely asked questions about it. Hence I would suggest to focus on computer science fundamentals instead of ML and Deep learning.
@@amanbhanse5645 Totally agreed, I am currently in my final year of Engineering, I have given interviews for Nutanix, Nokia, Standard Chartered and a couple more recently, neither fo they ask you anything from your ML projects, nor do they expect you to be knowing anything about them, because it's quite impossible to get a job from Campus placements directly into the Field of Data Science. Prepare your core subjects and DSA, you will be good to go. Data Science is surely a wonderful world to enter in, but during an undergraduate course, well don't dig in too deep I would say!
Actually till few years back Roorkee was second tier college (first tier being IIT Kanpur, Chennai, Delhi and Mumbai) And computer science at Roorkee was even worse... for computer science careers college does not mean much.... if you are passionate about your work and willing to work hard you will be fine irrespective of your college of graduation...

hey listen this carefully rachit jain its not bad we you realized if you are starting late for learning coding in final year. I hope you need to change your mindset grow up and have a open mind.
thanks a lot bhaiya, I am at the end of second sem and I am learning web dev on udemy(right now learning deployment) 3rd tier college and I am also learning cp by doing mostafa saad sheet currently reached the div-2 B level problems and I am looking to get much better at DSA by doing contests(which I haven't yet started). This video gives me at least some confidence. Thanks a lot!
i have similar situations brother.. i am also started cp and i solved 2 problems in the codechef long. and practicing DSA and learning webD side by side
I completed my first year in engineering(CSE) and my codeforfes rating is 1550 I like data structures and algorithms a lot, but I am from amrita university. What can I do to grab a good job?
Focus on web/app/backend development and make some good projects. Put that on resume along with its github link. It will be very helpful. Also you will be taught topics like DBMS, OS and Networks. These 3 subjects apart from DS and Algo are very important.
That's a great motivating & insightful video... Right that everyone is just running after ML nowadays ; on going through LinkedIn what I found is there are hardly any fresher's job in ML, Data Science... All Master's & PhD is required...
I have some good knowledge pf DSA (not an expert) but don't have any project. I was really confused in choosing technology as i m in my final year. You cleared all my doubts man. I will spend this year mastering DSA and doing some projects on web. Thanks Rachit.....! (Also got a feeling ki kaash me 2-3rd year me hota but its okay I'll invest my time now)
Yes many are hyped about machine/deep learning but the problem the company faces is with deployment of the models with good metrics. So if a person is good at machine learning then he can pickup web dev,cloud computing services like gcp,aws so that he can deploy the models. This also shows that he/she has hands on experience of ml, web, software engineering skills which makes the resume impressive. Many of them just train the model and leave it without deployment as they finish andrew Ng course and jump away. I know some of them who don't even have knowledge of graph algorithms like bfs,DFS but straight away starts with ml and thinks they can conquer the world by their skills🤦🤦
Bro i have done everything still unplaced... I have my website (built from scratch) , I have a good hold on DS & Algo, system design and CA. Still unplaced. I'm preparing for Mtech now, with no hopes, at least by getting into old IITs or IISc Bengaluru would help me get many opportunity to get into core software product based companies that too in decent package with good college environment and healthy competition. In tier 3 college, you yourself have to create and build opportunity for placements and also prepare them all by yourself, no senior will help you, no one will be there for guiding you, no one of seniors will be in those top dream companies of yours to get a contact of HR, so that you get opportunity for placements. it takes hell lot of work then an avg. iitian or nitian has to do. as companies come to their college and recruit and this part is handled by their T&P department, so student can prepare more focusedly and try his luck to every company that comes to his campus for recruitment. This process you told seems nice to listen, but in actual world doing this much labor in a tier 3 college will also not guarantee you the placement for sure. imagine the pain after that./
bro if u r a 6 star coder / 7 star coder at codechef , it's possible bro , that is keep playing competitive programming & approach someone on linkedin , u will get placed , believe in yourself!
I am from Tier-3 college and looking youtube videos of top tier colleges like IIT's and foreign institutes is making me focus to crack GATE and GRE so that I can complete my higher studies from those elite or top colleges
To all the students who are currently watching this video while being in the final year, don't worry guys you still have an entire life in front of you if you have not been able to learn a lot of software development and DSA uptill now. Cause learning doesn't end with graduation, we can still keep learning so cheer up mates👍🙂
Bruh my uncle is not even proper 12th pass and still is in Microsoft (not as a security guard but as a SDE) these companies don’t care abt college if you can give them what they want.
Says the people selling those courses. Remember if there's a gold rush(ML rush) people who sell the shovel(courses)get rich not the one who's digging(students completing those courses).
Hey, Rachit I'm from computer science background and it's been six years in IT industry and my algo and data structure are still in very beginning stage , I really want to work in software development field ..it will be great if you come up with video where you explain the steps that can be taken to gradually become comfortable with algo and DS , the main thing is to develop the thinking...Agree I can't start competitive programming all at once .. When I try to solve problems that are there in coding platforms , I find myself stuck how to proceed with the problem , probably I didn't practice much problems based on certain algo techniques ..what should I do in such a scenario ..? I want to learn gradually from zero to advance level and not want to skip anything ...
I think you're heavily underestimating ML jobs. The technical market is swaying steadily towards AI oriented jobs. In e-commerce sectors, the use of recommender systems is used for personalized recommendations which is migrating to other forms of websites as well. And this was just one field, there are many other sectors where ML is deployed and so many sectors it'll be in future. At the same time, I feel the need of software engineers will never diminish as they're required to support the ML engineers. They go hand in hand and it's just a matter of time before people ML becomes trend in India like software development is right now.
Yes exactly it is right, in the near future india will also have a rise in ML that's why it's a trend cuz it has a feature to solve any real world problem so i think that it is not that bad
Depends on the company you're applying. But apart from from that. You *must* know how those methods actually work on the inside, on a basic level. Like you should know how to sort without the sort() method or how to find the length without the STL method. That's compulsory.
I have done frontend developer internship (React js) and I have also done many projects. I also did competitive programming (4* on cc l left it few months ago). But how can I apply for the faang. I'm from tier 3.
I have created frontend using mostly bootstrap or material UI and also used firebase to mock backend.. i created ecomm website with just css and react. I'm also good at redux and other important packages.
@@aniketsaxena6691how did you start web development and what resources do you recommend for who want to start web development, according to you which is best web d or app d , I am in 2 year now , please help me
@@rishabh7011 In my first 5 semester I pretty much did only competitive programming. In feb of 2020 I attended the Nykaa meet up in gurgaon that talk inspired me a lot and that was it when I decided to do web development and yes in that meetup there were some really successful guys who never did CP in their entire life .Okay, so at first I started with Django, which I really hated because of python(I dont like python at all). After that I started with React JS.. I didn't know JS at that time but because of my JAVA background( I used to do CP with java) I found JS pretty easy initially, I don't know if it is actually the case. So for react I bought a udemy course of maximilian schwarzmüller and believe me I was coding 10-11 hrs straight every single day. I pretty much relied on anything other than GFG for resources, I don't recommend GFG at all because many a times there codes are wrong. Right now I'm doing my internship as frontend developer(using react js and some other libraries and frameworks) and I'm also working on a website for a startup.
The words we needed rn! Thanks a lot! Even your video editing and communication skills are improved. ^_^ I have been watching from your very first video!
So you know how to reverse a linked list, but do you know how to design a large scale distributed system? Nah, I don't know either. Yeah, you are welcome!
I am literally very confused very much right now between ml and software engineering and i am in mechanical ,but you just gave me a clear vision thanks you are really doing great
Well i am going to start my journey in lpu in cse dept..What I get is ..Get your DS+ALGO much strong then moving to development skills..I am much interested in python development(backend-Django) and ofcourse have an excitement to explore data science!!! If I choose path of python developer with my DS+ALGO skills to be strong..is it going to be a problem that I am not a web developer?? like python has great modules for development!!!Is it going to be an issue to move to python from regular trend of WEB-D
The only bad step I would say is I lacked guidance during engineering joining and ended up in a branch which I realised it's not where I was fully interested. By that time I had to take up job in a service based MNC, and then slowly realised I might do good in computer science. 4 years flew by and I'm still clueless which area to dive in. I've started DS&A and solving few problems now. Should see where it goes🤞
Just a few weeks from now , I will be a final year student , i am from a tier 3 college doing BCA i have done some web development tbh i am not at all passionate about It. I was really interested about machine learning and ai in general but i was scared of the maths so i never got my hands dirty on it but o have decided i will do machine learning and ds+algo in my final year and hopefully crack a product based company either as a sde1 role or as a junior data scientist. (Btw if anyone is actually interested in ml and have some money i would recommend them applied ai machine learning course).
So you are not going for further studies? But many say that doing masters after BCA is important. I asked a TH-camr(Love Babbar,working in Amazon.Check out his channel too) on linkedin whether product based companies hire BCA graduates ; he said negative chances.
@@bhanuraja6479 Yes i am aware about the industry bias towards 4 year course and i know don't prefer any 3 year courses students but my philosophy is that i will become just too good to ignore(and i am not just spiting anything that comes to my mind i am currently spending 8 hrs a day learning DS with python , i started on july 10 ). I already know little bit about web and will learn app dev after i become good enough to in ds to solve any Kaggle problem). My plan is to create a really good portfolio with end to end projects with deployment. IF I FAIL TO DO ALL THIS BEFORE 2020 ends then for rest 7 months i will prepare for NIMCET for Mca from NITs . If anyone of you reading this comment thinks this plan is flawed i am open to suggestions :)
@@Souravkumar-zq9ip Yeah, agreed 👍. Fun fact is 1st yr is same for all Btech students irrespective of branches. So main course starts from 2nd yr. That's pretty same as 3 yr course. Also your plan is grounded and realistic,no flaws. Check Love Babbar channel as he posts videos on ds,algo & interview AND ALL THE BEST FOR YOUR FUTURE, HOPE YOU GET INTO GOOD COMPANY 😄👍
You really motivates me rachit thanks a lot bro. As a fresher I join one company in 2016 still I'm in that same company. I didn't upgrade myself specially in coding problems, DS & Algo. From last few days I'm in depression or tensed how can I switch with less amount of time. But after watching this video you really help me out to come out from tension. Thanks Again @rachit jain
Inshort -- Yes They don't see degree ... Only skills is what they see..and is what which matters!! For eg- someone will employee a mechanical engineer by degree but having awesome coding skills rather than computer science engineer with average skills ?? Agree?
If in a tier 3,you wouldn't have such structured information in the first place,you would not have freedom to work on latest tools as they would take your time in everything and shape you such that you get on campus placements.But again,it all depends on your motivation whoch would have got you IIT in the first place :D
After having work experience , doing masters will enhance the skills of the engineer. That will increase the salary of the person. Thats my take on it.
I always knew that since I am in tier 3 college I wont get lucrative job offers. So from final year I started preparing for CGL. Will appear in CGL 2020. Hoping to get into Ministry of External Affairs as ASO. That is the only best thing I can get with lots of hard work. Already one year since I am preparing for SSC CGL with Cognizant job. I know for a fact, I can never make it to FANG companies.
I thought I wasted many years not knowing or exposed to these things, but I decided I am going to compete with my yesterday self.. I believe I will be better version.. thank you :)
My parents and relatives have both passed out from tier-1 college, and I ended up in tier-2. Our college had good professors, but I am still seeking to learn about advanced coding, and can you let me know about the approaches people from such institutes can take, since they are in the middle-ground
I am getting confused little bit like if the top companies likes Google,ms,Amazon etc are not giving that much package (coz of CTC) then who is going to do job in these companies everyone goes towards startups n. I am gonna start cp bt now confused a lot what to do cp or development 😰😣😣😞
You can join the service based if you don't have any other option to join currently. And start preparing for DSA and competitive programming along with your job. Look for opportunities you can get using the skills you gain then. Or if you are interested in a particular technology, start preparing for that and join a start up. Your next switch can be faang. If you have start up experience and your DSA is good.
@@ApoorvaAmbhoj Bro I am now going in 4 th year And I am practicing DSA from last 5 months and just started CP I am about to reach 5 star at hackerRank What I was asking should I really do CP or focus on web development because am lacking in projects. Should I just focus on leetcode And web development projects?
I feel like why to run for things and thinking too much , if i have been in 1st year, i would do this and that , do what you want to do at any instant of time. Any day can be the day you can put your efforts for. And don't be consistent on one thing. Explore multiple and see how life fun and exciting life seems ! May be today one can be an expert as SE, but may be he can very good into some other things which he has never tried. So i must say one must explore different things and never lose hopes.

It is really difficult for a student to cope up with these. At every level, you are reminded that your college is shit and not an IIT. Students stop caring about their career after certain point of time and do not study at all. They get lured into bad influence to forget all this and accept it as their fate. This results into even more jobless students.
If any guy reading is confused whether to take an additional drop year or to get admitted in a 3rd tier college, kindly do yourself a favour, take a drop year and work hard next time. Just my rant.
Great video btw.
every word you said is true and I've gone through every one of it (even getting lured into some bad shit) but I had my realization in my last year and was somehow able to pull me out of this, although I was able to land a job in a startup but now I'm aiming higher now.
Can't agree more
100% True ..... ! Tier - 3 College Sucks , They Give You 0% Support And These College Loot Our Hard Earned Money
@@Offensive_Security1998 IITs are overrated. CSE in any top NITs or IIITs or even some private tier 1 colleges is much better than some bullshit branch in IIT. Majority janta go to college for a job and the research opportunity at IITs are limited too, only a few students get those opportunities.
This is coming from a frustrated IITian not majoring in CSE(but very interested) who had to chance to join good CSE programs but was a fool back then. Hope someone sees this doesn't do the mistake I did.
Professors at tier 1 colleges are also not much good
Hey! I did my B.Tech CSE from a tier 3 college (never dropped or joined any coaching institute). I prepared for Gate and joined IIT for masters. Now, I am placed in Microsoft. So, I hope people from tier 3 never give up. Work hard guys. We are no less than anyone.
From where did you prepared for gate?
Hey, I'll be entering college in few months, can I please ask you some doubts 🙏
This video will be the most impactful throughout my college journey for sure. Thank you so much Sir. Currently passed 2nd Semester, looking forward to learn Development, DSA and do projects.
Hi, can I ask you some doubts please 🙏, I'll be entering college next month.
It was quite hard to find a like minded friend. I mean 90% people are trying to get into a job. 9% preparing for other examination and only 1% of people are actually willing to become an entrepreneur.
It requires lots of guts when everyone is preparing for jobs and you are working on your idea. Lots of criticism comes from every direction and only few can face it and come out as a successful Entrepreneur
Yeah man, Agree with you! 😕
True.
bhai toh humlog bann jaate hai n ek dusre ke friend???
What's actually the truth is that even from the 1%( & 9) only a few people make it work out , just because someone is willing doesn't mean they will make it. Being realistic not cynical.
@@pranayavnish8028 Actually it depends on what you define as success in my opinion you can create businesses through which you can earn same amount of money as a good job(google sde 1) by the time you end your four years but then you have to concentrate on profits and revenue more than unsustainable growth and vc funding.
I would say business of the same earning as a good engineer in india is equivalent difficulty.
And another big problem with these failure statistics is that there is no barrier of entry(very little) for example a doctor has to complete his degree to start his earning so obviously it would seem that doctors have higher success rate than lets say a businessman but you fail to understand that doctors or good engineers are already selected out of many other people so there is a barrier of entry unlike business where there is practically none i.e. people who know nothing about business and its basics enter into this field as well.
So your odds are already drastically improved if you improve your knowledge and have reasonable goals(a good earning such that you can earn same amount as you would doing in tier 1 jobs)
No body cares about tier 2 guys :(
haha XD

Literally surfing like a hell on YT to finalize my own roadmap and finally after going through 13-15 videos , the Best video i came across....is this💙💙 Thanks.... senior
I have done that ML mistake..!
All though I was focusing on DS and Algo too but I was not giving importance to OS, CN and DBMS instead I focused on ML and deep learning. So I was suggest you to first master the core subjects then do specialization.
Else you will end up like me..
I went through the exact same thing. I have been now working on Analytics Skills, A Data Analyst's profile seems to be much more reasonable for a fresher, as compared to Machine Learning and related stuff.
Could you please elaborate? I am from Nepal and I m 19. I also want to learn ML. Recently I have learnt Python and thinking of getting some knowledge in ML and deep learning. On searching for resources, I found almost every expert recommending the same course Rachit has mentioned in video. Could you show me tha path to focus? My ultimate goal is to end up in a good US company (not necessarily Google, MS)
@@nirojsedhai8661 if your goal is to get a job in good company especially product based ,then just practice problem solving , practice coding , make sure you know atleast one Object oriented language(java is preferred) , DBMS , OS and CN , this mentioned things will helps you to get good job.
And talking about ML and deep learning , this subjects are very vast and required more attention and more time. If you focus on this properly and if you are good at mathematics and programming especially in python (note that python is easy if you consider it to solve Normal problem but when it come to python for ML and deep learning then it's complexity increases alot!!!!!!)then surely you can became master over it.
But this will not help you in interview hence will not help to get a job.
Sadly very less companies looks for this skills.
And again down side of learning ML and Deep learning is that since it will take most of ur time then you can't really focus on Computer science fundamentals.
For example ,Speaking from my experience while giving interviews for companies like vertias,deustche ,etc. I have done most of my projects in ML and deep learning , but the company rarely asked questions about it.
Hence I would suggest to focus on computer science fundamentals instead of ML and Deep learning.
@@amanbhanse5645 Totally agreed, I am currently in my final year of Engineering, I have given interviews for Nutanix, Nokia, Standard Chartered and a couple more recently, neither fo they ask you anything from your ML projects, nor do they expect you to be knowing anything about them, because it's quite impossible to get a job from Campus placements directly into the Field of Data Science.
Prepare your core subjects and DSA, you will be good to go.
Data Science is surely a wonderful world to enter in, but during an undergraduate course, well don't dig in too deep I would say!
Actually till few years back Roorkee was second tier college (first tier being IIT Kanpur, Chennai, Delhi and Mumbai)
And computer science at Roorkee was even worse... for computer science careers college does not mean much.... if you are passionate about your work and willing to work hard you will be fine irrespective of your college of graduation...

Yes many are hyped about machine/deep learning but the problem the company faces is with deployment of the models with good metrics. So if a person is good at machine learning then he can pickup web dev,cloud computing services like gcp,aws so that he can deploy the models. This also shows that he/she has hands on experience of ml, web, software engineering skills which makes the resume impressive. Many of them just train the model and leave it without deployment as they finish andrew Ng course and jump away. I know some of them who don't even have knowledge of graph algorithms like bfs,DFS but straight away starts with ml and thinks they can conquer the world by their skills🤦🤦
Yes, I follow you... being an inspiration always 🙂
Bro i have done everything still unplaced... I have my website (built from scratch) , I have a good hold on DS & Algo, system design and CA. Still unplaced. I'm preparing for Mtech now, with no hopes, at least by getting into old IITs or IISc Bengaluru would help me get many opportunity to get into core software product based companies that too in decent package with good college environment and healthy competition. In tier 3 college, you yourself have to create and build opportunity for placements and also prepare them all by yourself, no senior will help you, no one will be there for guiding you, no one of seniors will be in those top dream companies of yours to get a contact of HR, so that you get opportunity for placements. it takes hell lot of work then an avg. iitian or nitian has to do. as companies come to their college and recruit and this part is handled by their T&P department, so student can prepare more focusedly and try his luck to every company
that comes to his campus for recruitment. This process you told seems nice to listen, but in actual world doing this much labor in a tier 3 college will also not guarantee you the placement for sure. imagine the pain after that./
bro if u r a 6 star coder / 7 star coder at codechef , it's possible bro , that is keep playing competitive programming & approach someone on linkedin , u will get placed , believe in yourself!

To all the students who are currently watching this video while being in the final year, don't worry guys you still have an entire life in front of you if you have not been able to learn a lot of software development and DSA uptill now. Cause learning doesn't end with graduation, we can still keep learning so cheer up mates👍🙂
Bruh my uncle is not even proper 12th pass and still is in Microsoft (not as a security guard but as a SDE) these companies don’t care abt college if you can give them what they want.
The truth is if you were in tier 3 college you will not get to know about competitive programming like things exist since end of 3rd or 4th year.
oof
that's really true unfortunately
Great advice rachit🤘

I think you're heavily underestimating ML jobs. The technical market is swaying steadily towards AI oriented jobs. In e-commerce sectors, the use of recommender systems is used for personalized recommendations which is migrating to other forms of websites as well. And this was just one field, there are many other sectors where ML is deployed and so many sectors it'll be in future. At the same time, I feel the need of software engineers will never diminish as they're required to support the ML engineers. They go hand in hand and it's just a matter of time before people ML becomes trend in India like software development is right now.
Yes exactly it is right, in the near future india will also have a rise in ML that's why it's a trend cuz it has a feature to solve any real world problem so i think that it is not that bad

Depends on the company you're applying. But apart from from that. You *must* know how those methods actually work on the inside, on a basic level.
Like you should know how to sort without the sort() method or how to find the length without the STL method.
That's compulsory.
I have done frontend developer internship (React js) and I have also done many projects. I also did competitive programming (4* on cc l left it few months ago). But how can I apply for the faang. I'm from tier 3.

@@aniketsaxena6691how did you start web development and what resources do you recommend for who want to start web development, according to you which is best web d or app d , I am in 2 year now , please help me
@@rishabh7011 In my first 5 semester I pretty much did only competitive programming. In feb of 2020 I attended the Nykaa meet up in gurgaon that talk inspired me a lot and that was it when I decided to do web development and yes in that meetup there were some really successful guys who never did CP in their entire life .Okay, so at first I started with Django, which I really hated because of python(I dont like python at all). After that I started with React JS.. I didn't know JS at that time but because of my JAVA background( I used to do CP with java) I found JS pretty easy initially, I don't know if it is actually the case. So for react I bought a udemy course of maximilian schwarzmüller and believe me I was coding 10-11 hrs straight every single day. I pretty much relied on anything other than GFG for resources, I don't recommend GFG at all because many a times there codes are wrong. Right now I'm doing my internship as frontend developer(using react js and some other libraries and frameworks) and I'm also working on a website for a startup.
I'd suggest finding a referral. Referrals will work in favour of you.

Well i am going to start my journey in lpu in cse dept..What I get is ..Get your DS+ALGO much strong then moving to development skills..I am much interested in python development(backend-Django) and ofcourse have an excitement to explore data science!!!
If I choose path of python developer with my DS+ALGO skills to be strong..is it going to be a problem that I am not a web developer??
like python has great modules for development!!!Is it going to be an issue to move to python from regular trend of WEB-D
The only bad step I would say is I lacked guidance during engineering joining and ended up in a branch which I realised it's not where I was fully interested. By that time I had to take up job in a service based MNC, and then slowly realised I might do good in computer science. 4 years flew by and I'm still clueless which area to dive in. I've started DS&A and solving few problems now. Should see where it goes🤞
which branch r u ?
Cool one quite a motivating stuff here👍🤘
Just a few weeks from now , I will be a final year student , i am from a tier 3 college doing BCA i have done some web development tbh i am not at all passionate about It. I was really interested about machine learning and ai in general but i was scared of the maths so i never got my hands dirty on it but o have decided i will do machine learning and ds+algo in my final year and hopefully crack a product based company either as a sde1 role or as a junior data scientist. (Btw if anyone is actually interested in ml and have some money i would recommend them applied ai machine learning course).
So you are not going for further studies? But many say that doing masters after BCA is important. I asked a TH-camr(Love Babbar,working in Amazon.Check out his channel too) on linkedin whether product based companies hire BCA graduates ; he said negative chances.
@@bhanuraja6479 Yes i am aware about the industry bias towards 4 year course and i know don't prefer any 3 year courses students but my philosophy is that i will become just too good to ignore(and i am not just spiting anything that comes to my mind i am currently spending 8 hrs a day learning DS with python , i started on july 10 ). I already know little bit about web and will learn app dev after i become good enough to in ds to solve any Kaggle problem). My plan is to create a really good portfolio with end to end projects with deployment. IF I FAIL TO DO ALL THIS BEFORE 2020 ends then for rest 7 months i will prepare for NIMCET for Mca from NITs . If anyone of you reading this comment thinks this plan is flawed i am open to suggestions :)
@@Souravkumar-zq9ip Yeah, agreed 👍. Fun fact is 1st yr is same for all Btech students irrespective of branches. So main course starts from 2nd yr. That's pretty same as 3 yr course.
Also your plan is grounded and realistic,no flaws.
Check Love Babbar channel as he posts videos on ds,algo & interview
AND ALL THE BEST FOR YOUR FUTURE, HOPE YOU GET INTO GOOD COMPANY 😄👍
You really motivates me rachit thanks a lot bro. As a fresher I join one company in 2016 still I'm in that same company. I didn't upgrade myself specially in coding problems, DS & Algo. From last few days I'm in depression or tensed how can I switch with less amount of time. But after watching this video you really help me out to come out from tension. Thanks Again @rachit jain
Bhaiya Do Google, Amazon, Microsoft hire students from other branches like mechanical or civil with exceptional coding skills and cs knowledge?
Inshort -- Yes
They don't see degree ... Only skills is what they see..and is what which matters!!
For eg- someone will employee a mechanical engineer by degree but having awesome coding skills rather than computer science engineer with average skills ??
Agree?
If in a tier 3,you wouldn't have such structured information in the first place,you would not have freedom to work on latest tools as they would take your time in everything and shape you such that you get on campus placements.But again,it all depends on your motivation whoch would have got you IIT in the first place :D
After having work experience , doing masters will enhance the skills of the engineer. That will increase the salary of the person. Thats my take on it.
I always knew that since I am in tier 3 college I wont get lucrative job offers. So from final year I started preparing for CGL. Will appear in CGL 2020. Hoping to get into Ministry of External Affairs as ASO. That is the only best thing I can get with lots of hard work. Already one year since I am preparing for SSC CGL with Cognizant job. I know for a fact, I can never make it to FANG companies.

That was a good point about not doing anything because you have very less time but doing it because you have to do it at one point in time anyways
What a 4th year student from a three tier college can do now to get placed in fang if he has his joining in a service based company after a month.
You can join the service based if you don't have any other option to join currently. And start preparing for DSA and competitive programming along with your job. Look for opportunities you can get using the skills you gain then.
Or if you are interested in a particular technology, start preparing for that and join a start up.
Your next switch can be faang. If you have start up experience and your DSA is good.

I feel like why to run for things and thinking too much , if i have been in 1st year, i would do this and that , do what you want to do at any instant of time. Any day can be the day you can put your efforts for. And don't be consistent on one thing. Explore multiple and see how life fun and exciting life seems ! May be today one can be an expert as SE, but may be he can very good into some other things which he has never tried. So i must say one must explore different things and never lose hopes.
