In a viral video, over 3,000 engineers were seen queuing outside a Pune-based company for a recent walk-in drive targeting junior developer positions, typically sought by freshers.
The event garnered immense interest, with more than 2,900 resumes submitted. Hinjawadi, known for attracting IT talent, witnessed long queues, each hopeful engineer holding their resume.
The video, widely shared on social media, has sparked discussions about the evolving IT job market and challenges faced by young professionals.
Despite Pune's vibrant IT sector, the overwhelming response for around 100 positions raises concerns about skills training, automation impact, and the need for job market diversification in India.
The incident highlights the intense competition affecting both recent graduates and experienced professionals.
Following the viral spread of the video across various platforms, a lively discussion erupted in the comment section, attracting numerous social media users eager to share their perspectives.
"An IT company collecting CVs in an analog manner is the height of irony," commented a user.
A user pointed out, "If you think this queue is bad, try applying for a job at a Canadian grocery store; their lines are longer than this."
Adding a touch of humor to the conversation, a third user quipped, "Where's that uncle who said to complete your engineering, and after that, everything will be fine?"
