In a viral video, almost 3,000 engineers were seen queuing outside a Pune-based firm for a recent walk-in drive aimed at junior developer roles, which are normally sought by freshers. Over 2,900 resumes were received for the event, indicating a high level of interest. Hinjawadi, notorious for drawing IT talent, saw huge lines of optimistic engineers carrying their resumes.
The film, which was extensively shared on social media, stirred conversations about the changing IT employment market and the obstacles that young workers confront.

Despite Pune's robust IT sector, the huge clamour for about 100 vacancies highlights worries about skills training, the impact of automation, and the need for employment market diversification in India.

The event demonstrates how fierce rivalry affects both young graduates and established professionals.

Following the video's rapid spread across several platforms, a lively conversation developed in the comments area, attracting a large number of social media users eager to offer their viewpoints.

"An IT company collecting CVs in an analogue manner is the height of irony," said one audience member.

A member of the public said, "If you think this queue is bad, try applying for a job at a Canadian grocery store; their lines are longer than this."

A third user added a bit of humour to the chat, saying, "Where's that uncle who said to finish your engineering, and everything will be fine?"
