Programmers never die

I had joined Newton School as a final year BTech graduate student and had applied for off-campus placements but I couldn’t get a job and today I work with TrakInvest, thanks to Newton School.

Data structure and algorithm had always been my calling but I lacked the skills required in today’s technology industry. I believe that the coder inside me was accentuated by the Newton School.

I did know the basics of coding previously but in the full stack development course, I was taught to solve complicated algorithms and improve my logical reasoning. My coding score has improved tremendously after the course. Earlier I had a score of around five but now it would easily be eight-plus!

One of my favorite part of learning in Newton School were the assignments. My mentors gave engaging assignments for each topic covered during the course. I had to work on various codes related to gaming, data structures and algorithms, and other exciting things. Our mistakes and doubts were cleared spontaneously and it helped me to prepare for the professional field.

Mock interviews played a huge role in helping me to understand the kind of questions asked during the interview. I believe that today, we have access to many resources but we need to learn to use resources appropriately, and well Newton School did that for me!
