How to Get a Software Job as a Fresher: Angad’s 14 LPA Success Story

When Angad first heard about UnsaidTalks, he was in the same place as many engineering students, motivated, but uncertain. He was putting in hours, solving problems, watching tutorials… yet something was missing.
There was effort, but not direction.

Then one day, when Raghav, founder of UnsaidTalks came to Thapar University and shared what UnsaidTalks truly stands for, mentorship that goes beyond lectures, it struck a chord.

“When Raghav talked about UnsaidTalks and explained what real mentorship means, I finally understood what I was missing,” Angad recalls.
“Then I connected with Mentor Shubhankar Sir, and my entire plan of action changed.”

That first week changed everything for Angad. Instead of guessing what to do next, he now had a mentor who mapped his preparation step-by-step –  what to study, from where, and how to stay consistent. He wasn’t just learning. He was executing with clarity.

“For each and everything which preparation, what resources, when to start Shubhankar Sir guided me through it all.
And Lakshay Ma’am’s lectures helped me simplify the toughest concepts.
Honestly, I got much more than what I paid for.”

How Our Mentorship Works Behind the Scenes

At UnsaidTalks, mentorship isn’t about simply teaching skills.
It’s about understanding the student deeply, guiding them phase-wise, and standing beside them through self-doubt, interviews, failures, and success.

Here’s what that journey looks like 👇

Phase 1: Deep Profiling & Foundation Setup

When a student joins our community, we don’t start by teaching, we start by understanding.
For one week, we conduct 360° profiling, rating every area on a 1–10 scale to gauge:

  • Technical fundamentals
  • DSA readiness
  • Communication & mindset
  • Consistency & discipline
  • Confidence level

This helps us identify exactly where the student stands and what they need next.

Phase 2: Structured Execution & Skill-Building

Once profiling is done, the real work begins.

Profile Building & Visibility. We teach how LinkedIn & Naukri actually work:

  • How recruiters search and shortlist
  • How to improve visibility early (not last minute)
  • Resume & ATS optimization
  • Profile outreach & open-to-work strategy

A strong profile takes months to build we ensure students start early.

Skill Execution Framework

Learning is never random. It follows a structure, but that structure looks different for every learner. For example :

Area

Daily Focus

DSA (LeetCode)

70–80% solving daily questions

Aptitude

10%

CS Fundamentals

10%

We created topic challenges once a mentee clears all questions in a topic, it’s marked complete. Every skill has checkpoints, no guesswork.

Phase 3: Interview Mindset, Projects & Real-World Prep

Project Guidance: If a student lacks strong projects, mentors help them build one with resources, feedback, and review sessions until it’s ready for interviews.

Interview Coaching: We prepare students to handle interviews end-to-end:

  • Which projects to highlight
  • Steering the interview direction
  • “Tell me about yourself” refinement
  • Full mock rounds with improvement notes

Human + Emotional Support: Beyond technical skills, we focus on mental health and consistency.
We hold WhatsApp video meets, sharing circles, and support calls to help students handle:

  • Rejections
  • Burnout
  • Delays in results
  • Confidence dips

Because mentorship here is both technical + human.

Company-Specific Prep: As placement season nears:

  • Company-wise strategy (patterns, difficulty, rounds)
  • Mock interviews with senior engineers
  • Last-week prep plans

Mentors stay connected daily during interviews, ensuring students remain calm, focused, and confident.

The Result: ₹14 LPA at Advantage Club

Within months, Angad transformed from an unsure learner into a confident problem-solver.
By the time placement season began, he had:

  • A solid GitHub portfolio
  • Industry-grade projects
  • A resume tailored for product companies
  • The confidence to lead any interview conversation

Today, Angad is placed at Advantage Club with a ₹14 LPA package, a testament to the power of guided mentorship.
