I'm the guy who was never supposed to be at Google. Failed JEE twice — once after a full drop year. B.Tech from GGSIPU, a college most people haven't heard of. Gave the GRE four times before I cracked it (ended at 307–308 — every MS consultant said that wasn't enough). UC Irvine took a chance on me anyway. Started on academic probation with a 2.8 GPA. Was last in my batch to land an internship. Rejected from almost every FAANG, consulting firm, and Indian product company I applied to — hundreds of nos before the one yes. Today I'm a Digital Transformation Consultant at Google, working on LLM and Gemini projects for enterprise clients. 💼 The path so far ✅ Google — Digital Transformation Consultant, LLM / Gemini for enterprise ✅ Walmart Global Tech — ML models that moved retail margins by 15% ✅ EY — Strategy & operations ✅ Quest Diagnostics — First internship (the one I almost didn't get) ✅ UC Irvine — MS Data Science, 3 published research papers, GPA clawed back from 2.8 to 3.3 ✅ GGSIPU — B.Tech IT 🎯 Who this page is for → Non-IIT kids tired of advice written for IIT grads → Engineers stuck in service companies trying to break into product → MS abroad aspirants with imperfect GRE / GPA who've been told "no" → Early-career professionals who've applied to 200+ roles and gotten ghosted → People with an interview next week who need someone brutally honest 📚 What I help with – MS Abroad strategy for non-IIT profiles specifically – FAANG & product-company resume reviews (past ATS, past recruiter screen) – Mock interviews for behavioral, case, and scenario rounds – 12-month career roadmaps + honest strategy sessions – Breaking out of service-based companies into product roles 💸 Six services below — from Async DMs to MS Abroad strategy.

If you're in that part right now — book a call. I was too, not that long ago.
