FAQ

What should freshers prioritise on their resume in India?

Projects and internships over CGPA walls of text. One stack depth (Java or Python + DSA), Git link, and standard headings beat ten languages from coursework. Mirror the campus JD keywords honestly.

How is fresher hiring different from lateral hiring?

Campus and fresher drives use aptitude + coding + HR patterns; ATS still keyword-matches but panels forgive less production experience. Lateral roles expect impact metrics and notice-period clarity.

Can I switch from BPO to tech as a fresher-equivalent profile?

Yes, but you compete with campus batches unless you prove projects, certifications, or internal mobility. Treat it as a career switch: portfolio, stack depth, and realistic band expectations.

Do TCS NQT and HackWithInfy need different resumes?

Same clean ATS format; emphasise aptitude readiness and the project you can whiteboard deepest. Company-specific guides help with round order and what each employer actually scores.

How does Reunitor help freshers?

Free ATS audit catches formatting and keyword gaps before you mass-apply on Naukri. Interview Coach helps with introduce-yourself and project deep-dives common in Indian campus panels.
