Getting shortlisted for an interview is exciting, but converting that opportunity into an offer is where many students struggle.

Some candidates have excellent technical knowledge but lack confidence, while others communicate well but don't prepare enough for technical or HR questions. Small mistakes can often make a big difference.

What do you think is the most common reason students miss out on job opportunities?

  • Poor communication skills
  • Lack of interview preparation
  • Weak resume
  • No real-world projects
  • Low confidence
  • Poor problem-solving skills
  • Something else?
