As documented by Manish Machha
I have always been inspired to be a software developer ever since my undergraduate days. Being from a mechanical engineering background, I was never able to get the right opportunity to explore the software development domain. But Simplilearn gave me the right platform and explore new avenues.
My Journey
I am from Hyderabad and I graduated in Mechanical Engineering from the CMR Institute of Technology in 2020. Due to the pandemic, my job prospects looked weak and I eventually joined Amazon Development Center as a Technical Support Associate in 2021. Since my undergraduate days, I had the goal to become a software engineer but due to my educational background, I wasn’t able to explore the domain.
The Challenge
Since my undergraduate days, I had the goal to become a software engineer but due to my educational background, I wasn’t able to explore the domain. My long-term goal was to become an industry-recognized tech enthusiast in Java development platform with a vast knowledge in web technologies but the circumstances did not help my cause.
I was constantly looking for ways to upskill myself through online tutorials and videos but wasn’t really able to breakthrough. During this time, I came across Simplilearn’s Full Stack Java Developer Job Guarantee Program.
