About this video
The exact blueprint behind my 50 LPA+ offer at IIT BHU (Non-CS Branch).
In the last video, you saw the result. Today, I’m sharing the unfiltered 6-month roadmap I used to crack Zomato (Eternal) after facing rejections from Media.net, Meesho, Cisco, and Amazon.
This isn't a generic guide. This is the battle-tested strategy for 2026 Batch (Placements) and 2027 Batch (Internships). I cover everything from C++ vs Java, the exact Striver/CP-31 sheets I used, to surviving the "Amazon Bar Raiser" and "Meesho Machine Coding" rounds.
📌 Resources Mentioned (Links below):
DSA Sheet: Striver’s SDE Sheet (Must do!)
CP Practice: TLE Eliminators CP-31 Sheet (800-1900 Rating)
OS/DBMS: Love Babbar
Computer Networks: Kunal Kushwaha
System Design: Ashish Pratap Singh
Mock Tests: AlgoZenith (Previous Year Papers)
