Real Stories, Real Impact

Join hundreds of professionals who've transformed their careers with Meritshot

After a decade in data, I kept missing big tech offers. Meritshot’s real-world projects and constant feedback sharpened my thinking and interview skills — I cracked Google with multiple offers.

Ananya Mehta

9 yrs | IBM → Google

Stuck in repetitive analytics work, my portfolio didn’t stand out. Meritshot made me work on messy datasets and defend my solutions. That’s how I landed at Microsoft doing work I love.

Rohan Desai

7 yrs | Infosys → Microsoft

I thought learning new stacks was enough, but the real gap was application. Meritshot’s challenges and mentorship taught me to dig deeper. Today, I lead high-impact projects at Deloitte.

 Vivek Nair

8 yrs | Wipro → Deloitte

Coming from accounting background, IB felt out of reach. Meritshot taught me the technicals and the unwritten rules of banking. Now at Goldman Sachs, I walk into meetings with confidence.

Natasha Roy

3 yrs | Goldman Sachs

I lacked deal experience and pitch skills. Meritshot had me create real valuation models and pitch to ex-bankers. Within months, I cracked JP Morgan and now thrive in IB.

Arjun Mehra

4 yrs | Mid-Tier Bank → JP Morgan

Initially, I worked with small banks. Meritshot immersed me in IB-style work from deal structuring to market analysis, and pushed me to think with both speed and precision.

Meera Iyer

6 yrs | Barclays

After 7 years at TCS, I felt stuck. Meritshot’s step-by-step guidance and interview prep landed me Google with a 120% hike and multiple job offers.

 Aarav Sharma

7 yrs | TCS → Google

I was earning okay at Wipro but growth had stalled. Meritshot’s mock interviews exposed my weak answers. Three months later, I joined Amazon with a 150% hike.

Rohan Verma

5 yrs | Wipro → Amazon

My pay and exposure at Infosys didn’t match my effort. Meritshot’s mentors refined my answers and boosted my communication. In 2 months, I cracked Microsoft with a 210% hike.

Priya Nair

4 yrs | Infosys → Microsoft

I failed 6 big tech interviews before Meritshot. Their mock panels fixed my answer structure, and in 3 months I had an offer from Meta with a 300% hike.

Arjun Malhotra

6 yrs | Capgemini → Meta

After years at HCL, I wanted more impact. Meritshot rebuilt my resume, fine-tuned my skills, and prepared me for behavioural rounds. I’m now at Netflix with a 250% hike.

 Karan Mehta

8 yrs | HCL → Netflix

My growth at Cognizant was slow. At Meritshot, every mock interview came with brutally honest feedback, and that’s exactly what I needed. They refined my technical skills, comms, and built my confidence for high-pressure interviews.

Ananya Gupta

5 yrs | Cognizant → Adobe
