How to Land a Full Stack Developer Job in Pune as a Non-CS Student

Can someone from a non-Computer Science background become a successful Software Development Engineer (SDE) in Pune? The answer is a resounding YES. Over 40% of our placed students at CampusCoders completed degrees in Mechanical, Civil, Electrical, BCA, B.Com, or B.Sc.
