Prasad N R<\/em>, a third year student of Electronics & Communication Engineering at Ramaiah Institute of Technology, tells how his\u00a0willingness<\/em> and desperation to get an internship gave him an extra edge over other more suitable candidates.<\/em> Read on to explore his internship story.<\/em><\/p>\n

The hopes all started with Internshala portal. The opportunities provided to me by this portal were plenty. Wow! I had never seen so many opportunities flooding into my inbox before. I applied for research internship- The Fermilabs Chicago internship from US national particle accelerator laboratory through Internshala. What a help they provided! Guiding me through every single step. I owe a big thanks for all the help, I reached the final round (Round 2 where assignments were submitted). But, to my utter dismay, I lost out in the last round and did not receive a call.<\/p>\n

That was one of the two internships I had applied for. Feeling bad, I was very desperate to get an internship somewhere. So, I did stumble upon one more. This time, in my very own college. They happened to be from Student Nokia Developer community. They had an online profile checking and a workshop. A test was conducted on the basis of that workshop. They also had a technical round and a HR. Gosh! So many of them for a handful of students. This was meant for students of CS and IT but, I was from Electronics and Communication.<\/p>\n

It was a nice sarcastic match for me. They were particularly very interested in me because I had submitted codes in C while they had asked in Java (Alas! That was the only proper language which I knew). The reason what they told me for taking me in was — I persisted while others hesitated.<\/p>\n

Finally, out of around 150 registered students, 21 were taken in. And out of 21 students, only I was from Electronics and Communication!<\/p>\n

Conclusion: Internshala portal provided me with abundant opportunities and I tried to get into so many and finally ended up landing into a completely new arena. I had a scoop.<\/p>\n

During my internship, the seniors provided me with a conducive environment and taught me all the basics of Java and android for which I am grateful to them.<\/p>\n

An app named ‘Trails’ has hit the Nokia store finally.<\/p>\n
