Hello, I'm a Columbia University graduate originally from Hyderabad, India. I arrived in the U.S. in August 2021 and I had no prior work experience. Initially, finding my first job was incredibly tough. I submitted over 1000 applications, juggling coursework, part-time jobs, and adjusting to life in a new country. After many months of effort, I finally landed my first job - it was a triumphant moment. I realized my passion was to assist international students like me in navigating the job market and help them break into the fields of Data and AI. I lead the following initiatives: → 🌱DataDrooler Community : Encouraging Early Career Talent to collaborate and build impactful data projects. Cohort starting Sep 29th, 2024. 🔗 www.datadrooler.com → JotterWolf : A CRM Tool for Job Seekers to track and manage job applications. ✨ Featured @Columbia StartUp Lab , Wiggin & Dana Fellowship , Microsoft For StartUps 🔗 www.jotterwolf.com → YouTube @SunjanaInData : Shares knowledge on DataEng and AI I am here on Topmate to help international jobseekers! If you have questions or need job search advice or just want someone to talk to, don't hesitate to reach out :)
