1. Your "Experience" Is Everywhere (If You Look Right)
Real example:
- Rahul (B.Sc): Used his gaming Discord server stats to prove community management skills → Hired at a SaaS startup
- Priya (B.Com): Turned her "failed" Instagram thrift store into a case study on customer engagement
2. The 30-Day Hustle Beats 4 Years of Theory
Recruiters care more about what you’ve done recently than your GPA:
- Bad: "Scored 85% in Marketing"
- Good: "Last month, I ran a 30-day challenge to grow a LinkedIn page from 0→500 followers using..."
3. Companies Secretly Want Blank Slates
Why? No bad habits to unlearn. Prove it with:
- "I document everything - here’s my Notion tracker for [relevant skill]"
- "I record myself practicing [skill] to improve weekly"
The "Poor Student’s Resume" That Works
Replace "Work Experience" with:
🔹 "Problems I’ve Solved" Section
- Fixed the hostel WiFi? → "Diagnosed network issues, reducing outage time by 40%"
- Planned a trip for friends? → "Coordinated 10-person budget travel (₹5K savings)"
🔹 "Skills in Progress"Section
Currently learning:
- Advanced Excel (building a family expense tracker)
- Copywriting (publishing weekly LinkedIn carousels)"
The Magic Interview Question
When asked "What’s your weakness?":
1. Pick a real struggle (I overprepare—once spent 20 hours on a 2-hour task)
2. Show your fix (Now I timebox research using Pomodoro technique)
3. Relate to the job (This helps me balance thoroughness with deadlines in roles like this)
Where to Find Employers, Who Want Freshers?
- Startups with <50 employees: They value hustle over pedigree
- Local businesses: Offer free audits (e.g., "I’ll analyze your social media for 3 actionable fixes")
- Your alumni: Message with "How did you land your first role? I’m trying to [specific goal]"
