Notwithstanding Rohan’s exceptional talent in coding, while attending interviews he understood that companies focus on recruiting the candidates who possess ‘hands-on’ experience in AI and deep learning rather than theoretical knowledge, which how even he had none. Some of his peers despite having poor command of the AI design tools assackocked low offers.
The Shifting Job Market
As a result, Rohan hoped to aim for the piles of bulk hiring companies such as Google and Amazon who are well known for bulk hiring students from IIT’s. But in 2024 half of these companies’ intake was cut as a result of restructuring these businesses and engaging in cost reduction.
Hi everybody! I have been looking at posts on narcs and narc abuse on here and if has really helped me out a lot. I am currently struggling with my situation and need some advice/support.
I met a narc last year, everything seemed to good to be true. Love bombing, always texting calling and taking me on dates. Everything changed when someone warned me about him out in public in front of him and who he is. This caused a conflict with us and the love bombing seized.
he would tell me that everything is okay and i can come and talk. He would set a time limit on me and kick me out after that.
he would then text me like everything was fine and we hung out again and after that he completely ghosted me for one week. He came back and texted me a week later laughing about the ghosting and acting like nothing had happened.
he continued to text me ( not like in the beginning) make plans with me, then on the day of the plans he would just ghost me. One day he would act interested the next silence.
i contacted him a month later and he acted like nothing happened. He was on a vacation and sent me a picture of another woman ( someone he allegedly met on the trip) to strike a reaction but i never gave him one. After the trip he came to my place and was extremely rude, accusing me of going on dates with a bunch of men. The next day he accused me of being an alcoholic and that he wanted nothing to do with me but said well maybe we can be "friends" then ghosted me
i assumed at this point it was over and i would never hear from him again. He contacted me on the holiday a month later acting like everything was great. We ended up hanging out a month or so later and when we hung out it went well, i thought things were going in the right direction.
after we hung out.. silence. I would try to text him and if he replied it would be very short then he just stopped replying. He ghosted me for almost three months. I thought he was done this time and of course he popped up again like nothing happened. At this point i was getting sick of if so i questioned him as to why he dissapeared and always does this. Of course he had some sob story about a injury and family member dying of cancer. I felt pity for him and he gave me an apology.. so i took him back stupidly.
things seemed to be going smooth for a couple months, of course until his family member died and his injury got better he never contacted me and was distant. Menawhile, i was there for him during the difficult time for him. He lied to me about the funeral and never wanted to chat. I was chasing him and he would always claim nothing was wrong but when i said i thought he used me when he was down he could not handle it and would always tell me he didnt care and to go away. I would get so upset i would try texting him to work it out he would barelt respond and if he did he would not be nice about it.
we did hang out a couple times after that, he would ignore me after. One day i was like hey i think you are seeing someone else, and i was like well ixam seeing someone so no problem if you are he said " buy bye good luck with your new guy stop contacting me" i was devastated and tried to get into contact with him for weeks then i just gave up and accepted it was over. He ended up contacting me a month later acting like everything was fine. He wanted to go out and have drinks i told him i would. He and i both seemed to have a great time. He ends up ignoring me again. I kept texting him trying to figure out what was wrong. He kept saying everything was fine and i said ok can we hang out again? He said maybe i was like why? He just kept saying maybe …
our last conversation we had… i said what is wrong ? He said nothing is wrong everything is fine. I asked him why he keeps saying maybe. He said " maybe but i dont want to see you right now" i said why? He saix " im just not feeling it, if i wanted to date i would" i said why did you contact me less then a week ago wanting to go out? He said i didnt.. even though he did. So i said should i just move on or what? He said whatever you want to do. So i said that he was really confusing me and asked him if he had anything more to say before i move on? My messages were turning green so i panicked he blocked me and reacted irrationally. I said " omg did you block me? My messages are not going through. Even texted him on my work phone asking what was up. And called him twice ( please dont judge me i know it is pathetic i never was this type of girl before him) so he replied and said " Ok I'll block you now" then immedietly blocked me. He has never blocked me before since I have met him he will just ghost. Is this ths final discard aka " grand finale? Did i just push him too far?
this has upset me so much its hard to even function.
The Story of Rohan: An Example of the 2024 Placement Challenges
Skills vs. Industry Demand Mismatch
Rohan, an Indian Institute of Technology graduate of Computer Science felt very positive as he was going to complete his final year. His performance was impressive with it being evident from his having a CGPA of 8.5 and being actively engaged in a number of projects and even having therest of a high-tech startup. Yet, when the placement opportunity came, he was left with no offer. He was not an isolated case-In fact, many of his classmates with some of them having even far better GPAs found themselves in the same quagmire.

One of the biggest transformations that the job market has faced was in the year 2024. A lot of people in the technology sector lost their jobs as many more multinational organizations cut down jobs as a result of economic recession, high prices, and little customer consumption. This altered the ways in which tech companies recruited new workers as they became more stringent or completely suspended recruitment.
Over the last few years, the curriculum that is offered in the IITs has become more and more theory based where most of the students focus on the conventional streams such as mechanical or civil engineering. But industries were narrowing towards artificial intelligence, data science and machine learning in an aggressive phase. As a result this led to an imbalance between the skills that the graduates possessed and the requirements in the job market.
In the year 2024, the issue of 38 % of IIT graduates being unplaced caused some feeling of alarm and concern from the populace. IIT graduates have always been viewed as the ones who have gone through the best of India's technical education and are able to secure the best jobs with the highest pay packages. But this year’s placement season was different. This paper seeks to address the question why most of these highly skilled students went home empty handed:
