Aspiring Minds: Tell us something about yourself and your career goals.

Sailu:Hello, My name is Sailu and I belong to a village which is situated in Telangana, where I am the first person to hold an Engineering Degree. My goal is to serve for the Society which I would like to start with my village.

Aspiring Minds: What difficulties did you face while searching for a job and how did you overcome those difficulties?

Sailu:As mentioned, being the first & only one graduate from my village I didn't get proper guidance on how to search for a job after completion of Engineering. Fortunately, I have done engineering from a well known college which helped me to overcome the difficulty of getting the right opportunities at right time. So, after six months of struggle I got the job.

Aspiring Minds: Tell us about your experience post giving the AMCAT test and how AMCAT helped you in getting the job at Accenture?

Sailu:At the first shot I felt that AMCAT will definitely be useful for me. I took AMCAT test in third year and scored more than 75% in all the modules. AMCAT helped me to get a job in Accenture through huge off-campus recruitment. So with the help of AMCAT I got the job in the same year in which I completed my B.Tech Degree. :) 

Aspiring Minds: Would you suggest other job seekers to take AMCAT? If yes, why

Sailu:Yes, Absolutely. One should take AMCAT whether he is a fresher or a job holder. AMCAT gives a chance to apply for number of companies as AMCAT has tied up with no. of renowned companies like Accenture, Verizon, Cognizant etc. So if you are passionate for an IT career, you must take AMCAT to get an opportunity in this competitive world.

Aspiring Minds: Would you like to share some tips which can help other job seekers in getting a good job?

Sailu:Just take some entry level exams like AMCAT and follow the updates & posts regularly. Taking AMCAT will not be much helpful until/unless you will follow the updates daily about the new jobs in the market. All the best folks have a great journey. :)
