HiCounselor provides a great and needed service that is extremely hard to find elsewhere. If you are a new graduate looking for technical jobs you cannot go wrong with HC. While the interview prepping was useful the main draw of HiCounselor is their networking system that is one of the most helpful tools in the job search that I have encountered.

Got more besides a satisfactory job
I joined HiCounselor's program in April, 2020, 4 months after graduation. It was difficult to find a job during the Covid time, especially that I didn't have a strong technical background. I was also not familiar with networking strategies, which is another big disadvantage. Aditya and his team helped me get stronger in communicating, networking, selling myself, cracking interviews, and various strategies of getting leads. For those times I failed interviews, Aditya and his team encouraged me to continue, worked with me to do mock interviews. We would also meeting twice a week to adjust strategies. At the same time, I took some online courses to improve my technical background. In the end, I was able to get a job that I really liked. And some good habits I developed during the job seeking process (especially email drafting) really helped me in my career.

Positive experience with HiCounselor
HiCounselor has a great team of experts who train candidates with both behavioral and technical interviews. HiCounselor helps with the job search process from end to end and makes sure to support the candidate throughout. I highly recommend them!

Excellent company outreach
Before HiCounselor, I had a hard time getting calls for interviews. Where they shine is that they do the initial outreach for you and they are quite good at it. Tell them the kind of roles and companies that you are into and they'll do the rest. Due to this I was able to utilise my time preparing for interviews rather than searching for jobs online. I even got interview calls from companies that rejected my resume 2 months ago. Also, they are very good at making introduction to high value startups which otherwise are hard to get into and hire exclusively by word of mouth.
So, if you are someone who is finding it hard to get interviews I highly recommend HiCounselor.

A good place to start your career with
HiCounselor is a very professional and responsible organization, their strategy for the new grads or people who switch careers works so well that in each phase of the training you will see your progress visually. Especially helpful in my case is the technical interview preparation courses, I would like to thank Mr. Tylor who helped us to go through everything in data science technical interview in his sessions. Mr. Aditya is the founder and he keeps track of every move of each student, organized the whole training and answered all the questions we had, walk us through the unknown to a brighter future. Thanks so much!

HiCounselor has been a great help for a recent graduate like me. They helped me with fine tuning my technical and non technical skills to give that extra edge. They helped me to get many interviews and improved my confidence through a constant support. Aditya is a nice person and a positive influence who is always there for support. Hicounselor is pretty good at what they do and it is really worth trying for any candidate looking out for great opportunities in the job market.

Great Experience!
Before HiCounselor, even though I was networking, but the right way of networking was something that I was lacking. HiCounselor has been really beneficial during my job search, especially during this pandemic situation. They guided me throughout the process and helped me with my applications. At the same time, they helped me to network effectively and gain proper exposure for my skills. The one on one sessions every week where we contemplated on our mistakes and corrected the path for the future made the process even better. I am really grateful to them.
To the job seekers, I would say "NEVER QUIT". Just keep on trying and there is a job out there which would match your preference exactly. Just keep on trying and keep on developing you skills everyday. HiCounselor acts as a great support and would make it simpler, but in the end you would have to give your 1000%.
Thank you and whoever is reading this, I hope you find something good ASAP!

Spot-on technique, strategy for an effective job search
I joined HiCounselor mid-March, right about when COVID forced a national lockdown. For about 3-4 months after that, I worked actively with Aditya and his team at HiCounselor to identify real opportunities, reach out and network with folks in the industry, actively prepare for networking calls, and first/second/third round job interviews. I have had an immensely positive experience with HiCounselor not just because it helped me find a job (which is no doubt the primary reason) but also because the team would work with me every week to make sure my job search was not slacking, which was crucial in a time when hiring was painfully slow. The team's strategy and technique helped me navigate the job market effectively and no doubt got me where I am today.
