Starting Point: Retail Operations
Mukil from Thanjavur worked in retail operations after completing his diploma. He wanted a software career with better long-term growth but could not afford expensive online bootcamps without mentorship or placement support.
He joined Brintelli's Full Stack Web Development cohort on the Thanjavur campus, where Tamil-medium explanation helped him grasp JavaScript, React, Node, and Git quickly.
Seven Months of Training and Projects
Mukil shipped four live MERN projects on GitHub with deployment links. He practiced DSA basics for product company interviews and attended weekly mock sessions with Brintelli mentors.
Bangalore Product Company Offer
Brintelli's Bangalore referral pipeline connected him with a product company hiring junior engineers. Mukil cleared the hiring loop and accepted ₹5.2 LPA. He relocated to Bangalore in 2025 and now builds customer-facing features with code review from senior engineers.
What Mukil Does Today in Bangalore
He contributes to production web applications as a Software Engineer, collaborating with designers and backend teams on features used by real customers.
Lessons From Mukil's Path
- Career switches need portfolio proof, not just course completion.
- Campus rhythm beats scattered self-study for students from non-IT backgrounds.
- Placement referrals accelerate Bangalore hiring when your GitHub shows deployed work.
