About

I’m passionate about helping job seekers, career switchers, and working professionals build a successful career in the IT and Data Analytics industry. With 3+ years of experience as the Head of Placement Department, I’ve guided thousands of learners from both technical and non-technical backgrounds to transition into IT careers confidently. Throughout my journey, I’ve designed placement strategies that focus on: Resume optimization for IT and analytics roles. LinkedIn & Naukri profile building to attract recruiters. Mock interviews and job readiness programs. Career roadmap planning for professionals seeking a career switch. My vision is simple — to bridge the gap between learning and getting hired in IT. Now, as I begin a new chapter after 22 April 2025, I’m focusing on sharing insights, strategies, and real hiring knowledge with a wider audience here on LinkedIn. Whether you’re: A fresher looking for your first IT job. A working professional planning to switch to the IT field Or someone struggling to get interview calls. I’ll help you understand how the IT placement process works, how to prepare strategically, and how to position yourself as the right candidate. 💬 Let’s connect if you’re looking for guidance in: Resume writing for IT & analytics jobs. LinkedIn & Naukri optimization. Career switching strategies. Placement preparation and interview readiness. “Getting placed is not luck — it’s a skill you can master with the right guidance.”
