Hello Joe, it has been seven months now in Cypress..I did not had any internship… I was placed through campus placements..

Specific jobs keep coming up (check ‘careers’ section on the website – off campus recruitment); and they require, most of the times, specific skills too; but stronger the resume, better is the chance of getting in.

As far as the job goes.. its fine; the best part I would say is the work culture.

One point I would like to make.. Internship hardly matters.. reason is most companies recognize 3-4 months is not enough; to know an organization sufficiently. Internship is good only if there is a prospect of getting it converted into an offer by the same company offering the intern. Projects are much worthy…strengthen the resume.
In the end what matters is how strong is the profile..as far as job in a good company goes.

Hope it helps..
All the best.

Hii .I have just completed my PG diploma in VLSI Design from C-DAC and i am very disappointed to say that its of no use.They have very less core companies in their campus placements and most of them are too small and pays around 10,000-15,000 /month.Moreover C-DAC claims to give 100% placement in vlsi which not at all true,also the vlsi market is also too bad today.

I am a parent of an ECE 3rd sem student , who is studying in a top college. By going through the blog, i am bit scared, but still optimistic with the replies of couple of the respondents.

A course at C-DAC is good, thats what i read in some other blog too. Apart from that, what self study/online course/summer projects/summer 2months course/training/internship can improve the chances of getting through campus placement? My ward is doing good in studies.

Nilesh or other readers pls help.

Thank you

Hello Sridhar,
It is really nice to read your blog. Me too, in a huge confusion whether to go for A core job or CS job. As a matter of fact, i am placed in Wipro and cognizant, in ma college campus. I am an E&Tc stud.
I aspire for a core job. I want to build a career in innovation and not slog like a dog.
I am thinking of doing MS but its not pretty sure financially. So my question is :
Should I go for WIPRO or COGNIZANT. Pls reply asap!
Thank you and all the best for aspirations. Keep posting..

I totally agree with this. Only IT and CS graduates can survive in today’s market. I’ve had a personal experience.
