I used to play cricket regularly and was in good shape, with strong fitness levels. However, after a long break, I feel like I’ve lost a lot of strength and gained some weight. Now I’m planning to get back on track by joining a gym soon.

Since I’m completely new to the gym environment, I’d really appreciate any recommendations for good gyms around the Edachira or Kakkanad area.

Also, if anyone else is planning to join as a beginner, we could team up—there might even be some offers or discounts for group sign-ups!

I studied BSc Computer Science and I have 1 backlog, so I’m looking for an entry-level IT job. Will any companies in Infopark hire me if I have the required skills?

Currently working at TCS with around 1 year experience.

If anyone’s company is hiring or can give a referral for full stack roles, do let me know

I am launching a new FMCG wholesale business involving a "Van Sale" operation with two initial vehicles. I am looking for an experienced app developer to build a user-friendly, data-driven application primarily for field data collection.If you have the experience and are interested in collaborating on this project, please feel free to DM me with your portfolio or a brief summary of your previous work.

Looking forward to connecting!

I graduated more than 2 years ago with a BTech degree. During campus placements, I got 2 offers, one for 40k/month and another for 20k/month. But neither company onboarded me. They kept asking me to wait for months, saying there was a hiring freeze and recession. Later I found out I wasn’t the only one. Many students selected along with me were also left waiting, while some others were onboarded. 8 months lost and they told me hiring was froze. That completely affected my confidence.

After that I kept job hunting for a while but had no success. Since I was desperate to improve my chances, I joined an institute that promised placement assurance repeatedly. I ended up losing more than 60k there. Once the full fees were paid, everything changed. They basically ghosted me. After repeated requests, they arranged only 2 interviews just for namesake, and even those were practically unattendable. I genuinely feel these institutes heavily market themselves, collect fees from students, and then treat students like liabilities afterward. Even now they are aggressively advertising and more people are joining.

I even posted a detailed Google review about my experience, but I was threatened and pressured into removing it. That entire phase took another 8 months of my life.

The field I trained for there was AI related, but by then there were barely any fresher openings. I kept applying anyway, unsuccessfully. I attended a few interviews, but my mental state had become so bad that in two of them I literally couldn’t even speak properly.

Right now, I’ve applied to almost every entry level and even some 1 year experience openings on the Infopark site. I’ve changed my resume multiple times, tried referrals, improved projects, practiced aptitude/interview prep, everything I could think of. But in all this time I’ve received only 2 or 3 calls. The worst part is seeing classmates whom I helped during college, including helping some crack aptitude tests for placements, now earning 40k+ while I’m still unemployed after 2 years.

I chose CS out of passion. I had won awards in college and genuinely believed I would build a career in this field. But now I’ve reached a point where I honestly regret choosing it sometimes. If anyone can genuinely help with referrals, openings, guidance, or even advice on what I should realistically do next, please DM me. I’m specifically looking for entry level opportunities around Infopark/Technopark etc or anywhere.

Thanks for reading.
