Hi, I am Pankaj Verma This is to those who are thought we can't get good recognition if they are not from the top IIT college. I completed my 12th in 2016 with a decent percentage and was willing to enter IIT. I cleared the mains exam but couldn't clear advanced due to tough competition and having no preparation. So I thought to give it another chance and went to Kota to study, but unfortunately, the environment didn't suit me, and I dropped the idea and just came back. I just took admission to one of the tier-3 colleges under AKTU (Abdul Kalam Technical University). Gradually, I followed my passion and learned and developed coding skills. Constantly did the hard work and read the Bhagavad Gita, which motivated me to work toward my dreams of bringing positive change in society. Currently, I am working in ShareChat and developing cool features impacting 400 million users and working with great minds from IITs and IIMs. I have been fortunate enough to get into one of the unicorn companies. For students who are on their career path, keep pushing hard and work on your skills. DM me or Book 1-1 slot if you need any mentorship in DSA or career-related counselling.
