Why Sproutern Exists
Here's a hard truth about campus placements in India: students from top-tier colleges have access to mentors, alumni networks, and career resources that most students can only dream of. Meanwhile, millions of talented students from Tier-2 and Tier-3 colleges struggle alone — searching through fragmented information on the internet, unsure if they're preparing for the right things.
I've seen this inequality firsthand. As a student at MIT Chennai, I watched friends from well-connected families get insider tips about interviews, while first-generation college students had no one to guide them. The gap wasn't about talent or hard work — it was about access to information.
Sproutern was built to close that gap. Every interview experience shared on this platform is real — written by students who actually went through the process and wanted to help others. Every template, every guide, every tool has been created with one question in mind: "Will this actually help a student who has no other guidance?"
We don't charge money for what students desperately need. There's no "premium tier" that locks away the best content. If you're a student preparing for your career, everything on Sproutern is yours — free, forever. Because career success shouldn't depend on which family you were born into or which college accepted you.
That's why Sproutern exists. That's what drives every feature we build, every resource we create, and every decision we make. We're not just another career platform — we're a mission to democratize career guidance across India.

"During my Barclays off-campus drive in October 2025, they asked the exact SQL query I'd read about here — finding the second highest salary. Prepared that approach specifically after reading someone's experience. Got the offer!"
Sneha Raghunathan
B.Tech IT, SRM Chennai • Placed Dec 2025
"I was confused whether VTU uses 9.5 or 10 as the CGPA multiplier. Called my exam cell, they confirmed 10. Your tool had it right when every other site showed 9.5. Matters when you're at 7.2 trying to meet a 70% cutoff."
Karthik Bhat
Mechanical Engineering, RVCE Bangalore
"Used the typing test for 3 weeks before my Wipro assessment. Went from 32 WPM to 48 WPM. The assessment had a 35 WPM cutoff which I would have failed earlier. Small things matter."
Divya Menon
BCA, Christ University • Hired Nov 2025
"I'm an international student at UT Dallas doing my MS. Found your salary calculator helpful for understanding Indian IT salaries since I'm considering moving back. The CTC breakdown feature is something US salary sites don't have."
Arjun Venkatesh
MS Computer Science, UT Dallas, Texas
"Preparing for TCS interviews from London for their Global Hiring program. The interview experiences here gave me a clear picture of what to expect. Much better than the generic advice on Reddit."
Priya Sharma
MSc Data Science, King's College London
"I work in Dubai but wanted to understand placement processes for my younger brother in India. Shared your resume guide with him — he said it was more practical than the paid courses he'd looked at."
Mohammed Faiz
Software Engineer, Dubai
