Seniors, what should I focus on for good placements?

I’m a 2nd year BTech student and I want to seriously focus on placements now. I don’t want to keep exploring random things anymore — I just want to know what’s actually working for good placements right now.

What skills, projects, tech stacks, or preparation helped you the most?
What should I focus on from now till placements?

Would appreciate honest advice from seniors and recent graduates.

Nowadays everyone is running behind applying as many jobs as possible like trying to catch pikachu's but they forget the one small detail its not about how many jobs you apply its about how do you convince that you deserve the place the days of certifications, and leetcodes are gone you have it ? someone else has it better than you. Nowadays most of the hiring are happening through the referrals you think you have a chance in the game but game is already fixed. Hence its essential to show the proof of what you got and not hide behind the leetcode or linkedin profile.

Hence I created eqly.in. eqly.in does not care about your fancy degree or your fancy college eqly care about one simple thing can you perform or not can you deliver or not. our hiring principle is based on elon musk's hiring approach of "what can you build next?" and inspired by mark zuckerberg's approach to hiring and visionary leadership. we challenge your understanding and your skills though Socrates way and our artificial intelligence model judge you based on the Richard Feynman's approach of understanding.

we are looking at everything differently we believe every employee has limited time to realise his potential, you may think you are good for the pond but what if you are made for the sea's and that's what we aim for.

FAQ: Looks complicated what i need to do ? nothing we believe in steve jobs approach of design and that is "the most hardest thing is to make everything simple", just upload a 2 min video of what you actually got and thats it nothing more. you want to hire someone dont write a long paragraph of bs just be sincere and upload a 2 min video of what you want and just chill on the couch let eqly handle the rest.

is it another chatgpt wrapper or another gemini api based so called "AI" hiring system ? Nope we aren't. We developed everything from scratch . we hire based on how you think, your understanding of subject, your ability to build a product and to prove your edge and not based on some keyword matching and generating some random bs and calling it innovative AI platform (IFYKYK) we deliver what we say we are going to deliver.

you add lots of words regarding hiring approaches can you actually do it or you are just another snake oil salesman trying to sell his bs by hyping it a lot? yes we can. Try our elon mode or try our other features it will grill you to the core. It will question everything you know and you will feel did I even know about this topic and what did I do till now.

what about jobs is it another bullshit job platform with big words? we have the world most premium jobs nvidia , netflix amazon , jane street you name it we have it. worlds biggest companies and their biggest jobs we have it. These jobs don't even see light of the day these are the ones hiring teams hire through connections we brought it here. find any job of less than 15 LPA and get 1 month premium for free just send me the screenshot *

How can we trust you that you are not another bullshitter ? search about our company eqly.in on any of your favourite chatbot such as chatgpt ,claude or perplexity etc and ask it about eqly.in or about who is aniruddha rawale and what he does etc to know more about us and about our research

Hyderabad vs Bangalore for a SWE career?

I’m currently a first-year Computer Engineering student at University of Birmingham Dubai, and I’ve been seriously thinking about where I want to build my career after graduation.

I’m actually Indian, but I was born and brought up in Dubai. Even though I’ve lived here my whole life, culturally I feel much more connected to India, and long-term I’m strongly considering moving there for tech instead of going down the UK/US route that a lot of people around me seem to prefer.

Right now, Hyderabad is one of the cities I’m considering the most (along with Bangalore and Chennai), especially because I keep hearing that the tech scene there is growing really fast while still being more livable than Bangalore.

So I wanted some honest opinions from people actually working in tech in these cities:

  • How does Hyderabad compare to Bangalore and Chennai specifically for software engineering opportunities, startups, product companies, and long-term growth?
  • Is Bangalore still significantly ahead in terms of career upside/networking/startup culture, or is Hyderabad catching up fast enough that the gap doesn’t matter as much anymore?
  • How are salaries and career growth in Hyderabad compared to other Indian tech hubs?
  • What’s the actual quality of life like for someone in their early 20s working in tech there?
  • How manageable are things like traffic, rent, commute, safety, social life, etc.?
  • For women working in tech, how comfortable/safe does Hyderabad generally feel compared to Bangalore or Chennai?
  • Do you think India’s tech ecosystem still has strong long-term growth potential over the next 5–10 years, especially in backend/software/product engineering?
  • And honestly: if you were in my position, would you still target India for tech, or would you rather build your career abroad?

A bit about me:

  • First-year CE student
  • Interested mainly in backend/software engineering right now
  • Working on improving DSA, projects, internships, hackathons, etc.
  • Hoping to eventually land strong product/startup roles rather than traditional service-company paths

Would really appreciate honest perspectives — especially from people who’ve worked in multiple cities or moved back to India from abroad.
