STARTING IS ALL YOU NEED

HiCounselor gave me an opportunity to put my knowledge to test and an opportunity to learn as well. From this experience, I learnt one thing which is all you have to do is JUST START.

Hicounselor's Career Accelerator: A Sham and a Scam

Hicounselor's career accelerator program is an utter sham, a complete waste of time and resources. Their auto job application tool is beyond atrocious, achieving nothing but frustration and disappointment for users. Despite their promises, they utterly fail to place individuals in reputable companies, leaving applicants stranded and disillusioned.

Even if you manage to secure a job through your own efforts, they shamelessly demand a portion of your hard-earned salary, despite contributing absolutely nothing to your success. This blatant exploitation is nothing short of predatory.

Furthermore, the CEO of the company epitomizes egotism and incompetence. Their lack of leadership and vision has led to the complete failure of the company's purported mission. Hicounselor is nothing more than a facade of false promises and self-serving agendas.

Data Live Project - Expectation vs Reality

The data live project was good. Although I expected a more difficult level for this project, it did not have that level of difficulty. I would want to see multiple datasets in play using which SQL tasks should be completed. But overall, it did cover major important aspects of the domain which might be the project's (and HiCounselor's) aim. The company conducted the live project well.

Detecting Skin Cancer using Tensor flow and python

I had good experience in doing hands on real world project on detecting skin cancer using python and tensor flow. Sometimes the run test kept going into runtime failure which increased my test runs as this project is a competetion test runs matters, other than that had good experience with the project.

Barcode Scanner Project - Node

Overall, my experience with the project was positive in terms of gaining valuable experience. However, there were some challenges encountered along the way. One of the tasks had misleading instructions, leading to confusion during implementation. Additionally, there was a missing attribute requirement, which prevented me from progressing past a failing test. The error message provided was not descriptive enough to pinpoint the exact issue, adding to the frustration. The response time to my feedback was not acceptable since this was a competition and I never received any responses in their discord.
