About Event

🚀 Dreaming of becoming an SDE at Google, Amazon, Microsoft, or top product-based companies?
Most students want to break into MAANG+, but very few know the real roadmap. The biggest challenge isn’t talent, it’s lack of direction, misaligned preparation, and no inside understanding of how top companies hire.

Many learners struggle with:

  • Not knowing how to balance DSA, development, and system thinking

  • Confusion around which topics actually matter for MAANG+

  • Spending months preparing without a structured plan

  • Weak project portfolios that don’t stand out

  • No clarity on interview expectations at product-based companies

To solve this, we’re hosting a powerful session featuring Manas Bhardwaj, SMTS / SDE-3 at Oracle, Ex-Senior Software Engineer-II at MakeMyTrip (Ex-Gaana). With real experience inside large-scale engineering teams, Manas brings an insider’s view of how top companies evaluate candidates, what skills they prioritise, and how to approach preparation strategically.

In this masterclass, Manas will share:

What You’ll Learn

  • What product-based interviews actually test
