When do recruiters contact you[INDIA] ?

Jun 20, 2021 40 Comments

I am a new grad from tier-1 iit . I am joining one of company nutanix, sprinkler, Alphonso, appdynamics

Tc- 29-31

Contrary to popular assumptions most of new grads even from tier 1 colleges don't have recruiters approaching them for interviews(except from hfts where noone wants to join). But I see here that a lot of people have recruiters approaching them on LinkedIn

1. At which yoe your demand as an swe increases in market? Why are new grads not in demand?

2. Do recruiters only contact you if you are from Google and Uber?

Ps- most of the companies conduct oa for new grads even if you contact recruiter. And the amount oh honesty people show there it's impossible to get selected in them

    You need at least 2 yoe for good recruiters to approach you and 5 yoe for it to be a constant thing in your inbox. Also tier 1 colleges tag becomes lot less useful after 5 yoe, you can get interviews using that only in initial part of your career. Currently even if recruiters aren't approaching you if you apply/contact then there's a high probability that you will hear back from them due to your college tag.

      They contact you if you have a decently good company on resume, some start ups are of equal value as google and other top companies. As for new grads, those entry level positions are easier to fill as compared to experienced roles. Most companies no longer have a requirement like tier 1 college thus have a huge overflow of candidates at enter level and due to online courses and sudden increase in people who are good at DSA, companies aren't exactly struggling to fill their entry level positions

    Recruiters don't usually need to approach new grads because new grad headcount is almost completely filled up by returning interns and campus hires.
