It was predicted that it would be India’s Century at the turn of this 21st Century. Come 2022, the world will realise the prophecy. India is now an IT powerhouse delivering solutions globally.
Coding is one of the essential foundations of the IT industry. Today, it’s one of the most sought after subjects, and the Government of India is actively promoting it. As a result, a revolution is going on, and CodeQuotient is at the cutting edge.
Gaurav, a CodeQuotient alumni, shares how he landed his dream placement with Indus Valley Partners as an Associate Software Engineer- Intern.
This is his story!
Gaurav’s Journey with CodeQuotient
Faridabad’s Gaurav Pathak was part of CodeQuotient’s SuperCoder program—a 3-month online course on ‘full-stack development’ aimed at software engineers or interested students having basic knowledge about coding. The course is free of cost.
Gaurav joined the program after he got to know about it from his friends, and he feels it was a brilliant decision on his part.
“I got to know about CQ through my peers; a link was sent in our WhatsApp group, and the course looked good. I wanted to join the program as I was looking for training in Web development, and that’s exactly what CQ was offering, along with training for job interviews. So it seemed like a good idea”, says Gaurav.
And the best part is CodeQuotient help with placements also. Ask Gaurav, and he will say how the project-based learning approach and focused mentorship helped him land his dream job with a reputed company like Indus Valley Partners.

The learning approach
Speaking about his time and experience with CodeQuotient, Gaurav says: “I loved the projects I got to work on. The mentors only gave us outlines and told us we had to work on everything ourselves, which was the best thing; I learned so much that way. Of course, there were challenges, but since we had to fend for ourselves, we had to develop innovative ways to solve our problems which pushed us to succeed.”
Gaurav sums it up sufficiently that the mentors at CodeQuotient are not there to please you; they will make you industry-ready. They make you grind hard, compel you to think out of the box and put in the maximum effort.
Right from the pre-course, CodeQuotient mentors set up a rigorous process that weeds out interested students from others.
Mentors
The course offered Gaurav more than he could have expected. He had opted for other courses in the past, but they did not match his expectations.
He says: “I had done a training program for python from a different coaching centre, but their way of teaching was just to make us feel like we’ve grasped everything. But unfortunately, after completing the program, I completely forgot what they taught. This is where CodeQuotient stands out. Their teaching techniques are so effective that the material has been imprinted in my mind.”
The mentors created all the difference, according to Gaurav. With a unique approach to learning, the guidance provided by them was simply outstanding.
“One amazing thing about the program was the student-teacher interaction. Whenever we had a doubt, we could communicate with the teacher easily, and they were accommodating. They also track our progress by keeping one-on-one sessions; something other coaching centres don’t do,” he gushes.
In addition, CodeQuotient’s help post completion of the course helped Gaurav crack his interview.
“Before the job interviews, mentors gave us a good revision which helped us feel more prepared for the placements.”
The SuperCoder Experience
Although it is a free course, CodeQuotient’s SuperCoder program delivers more than any other course in the industry. Things are taught from scratch so that learners can pace themselves well and make their basics strong.
Gaurav adds from his experience: “Another thing I liked about the program is that the mentors taught JavaScript from scratch. So, if any students were not familiar with JS, they did not have to worry as the teachers took time to clear the basics.”
Furthermore, it is a fully online program designed to deliver maximum value in that format, unlike regular online college classes that are still not optimised for remote format.
This, in turn, helps the learners to optimise their learning and create and maintain their interest in the lessons.
“Since colleges are working online today, they’re not exactly putting in a lot of effort to teach, and I think it’s not their fault as the change is new for them too. But CodeQuotient was designed for an online space, which is why its teaching is more effective”.
The Difference with other “Online Materials”
For the uninitiated, it is very natural to confuse and overlook the benefits of CodeQuotient’s free SuperCoder program and other materials available online.
Gaurav sets the record straight: “Many students might wonder why to enrol in a program when you can learn everything on YouTube or Google for free. But in a program like SuperCoders, you get guidance and personal attention from teachers, which you won’t get from YouTube!
“Additionally, when you’re studying on your own, you might get a little lazy sometimes or might not be disciplined enough to study every day and procrastinate.
When you’re in a learning program, you get reasonable deadlines for your projects, motivating you to keep learning. This is my personal opinion that healthy pressure is required to keep students motivated.”
Gaurav had a great experience with CodeQuotient’s SuperCoder program. From the pre-course days to post-completion, he had a fantastic learning curve. “I’m fortunate to have found CodeQuotient; otherwise, I would’ve always felt like I’m missing out on something,” he says.
