My heartfelt thanks to Seed. Review on SEED Infotech Institute, Bangalore

It is sad to see so many bad reviews on an Institute like Seed Infotech. I personally am very grateful to Seed for making me what I am now. I just want to share my experience with Seed here.

After completing my BE in Computers I worked in a government firm where I had gained zero knowledge and zero growth for 3 years. After my marriage I quit that job and shifted to Pune. With my weak academics and 3 years of waste past work experience it was impossible to get placed in any software firm. So I decided to learn Software Testing thinking that it would help me. After researching a bit on Internet I joined Seed Infotech, Chinchwad branch.

It was a 1 month course where I got a good knowledge on Software Testing. My tutors Rahul Sir and Shakuntala Mam were the best and even the books provided by Seed helped me gain a lot of knowledge. All this made me think that I was born to be a Software Tester:)

Apart from this a personality development class of 1 day gave me a complete insight of how to behave and answer in an interview.

After 1 month the class was over. I started getting mails about the openings from Seed everyday. But due to my gap of 3 years I got rejected in many companies. Even though I did best in the interview my past experience was screwing me(In every company I got rejected in last round). I did not get placed anywhere even after 3 months of passing out from Seed.

Then due to my husband's transfer I shifted to Mumbai. Seed use to send me mails only for Pune companies. I sent a mail to Seed asking them to send me Mumbai companies mails instead of Punes and within a day I started getting the interviews from Mumbai.

But, again the same story was repeated here and I got rejected every time . I was disheartened. So I started applying for the post which were not so good. Like I got 1 mail from seed for Support Co-ordinator, I applied for it and was selected. Though this was not what I wanted to do, I started working there thinking that its better to do something then doing nothing.

I did not leave the hope and kept preparing about Software Testing when ever I got a little bit of time. Seed kept sending me mails and I kept applying and I was as usual rejected for obvious reason. 1 year passed and still I was not placed as a Tester which had become my dream now.

One fine day I applied for a company which was very close to my house. As usual I cleared all the rounds which were like.

1st round - Technical paper.

2nd round - Face to face technical round with Test lead

3rd round - Face to face technical with Test Manager.

4th round - Some HR questions.

And the 5th and the last round was pending which was with the MD. After getting back home I had no hopes that I would be called back for this last round as it had become a habit for me of getting rejected in last round.

To my surprise next day I got a call from the company for the last round. And guess what!

I was finally selected as a Software Tester after 1 year. And my dream came true:)

I know this is a lengthy review but it was necessary for me to write this after reading all the crappy reviews here. If you keep on trying without loosing hope then definitely you will succeed one day. Seed just give us knowledge and sends us for interview. But, cracking the interview is on us. Seed cant help us in that.

These days the online job portals like monster or naukri does not help anyone. Forget about landing a job but not even it gets us an interview. At least with the help of Seed we get to know where the current openings are.

I recommend Seed Infotech for everyone who want to do any course after completing their degree.

Thank You seed for making this possible for me:)
