View All Reviews(19)They were very precise and practical in their approach which is similar to mine. They had tons of experience in building large applications and at scale, something i would like to learn from them and they were also aiming to provide the same. Its important to have a mentor who can show and keep a mentee on the right path, which i believe would be the case while working with them, especially the non technical aspects and a experienced/mature point of view.

After speaking with Shisir I got clarity on the concepts that are required for an interview. Apart from this what sets him apart is understanding basic concepts rather than going to frameworks directly which will help in career growth as well. Shisir gave a good understanding of how the plan would be for the LTM process.

I had a insightful session with Shishir. His deep insights into top product companies and clear explanations instilled confidence in my DSA and System Design preparation. Grateful for the encouragement and motivation to set higher goals. Looking forward to future sessions!

I had a great session with Shishir, we discussed about his IT experience and then moved on to my IT experience and I guess whatever your experience is, he has the confidence in himself that he'll be able to transform you. So overall, it was a good trial session.
