Meet Neel Yadav, a #ManningCICS CS in MS student who secured a Software Engineering Internship last summer at iServiceWeb, a New York-based startup specializing in creating and maintaining websites to help businesses thrive.
Neel’s recruitment process was competitive yet straightforward, consisting of an application, an online assessment, as well as technical and behavioral interviews. Neel describes the process as “thorough” and “providing a clear picture of what the role would entail.”
Neel worked on several impactful projects during the internship that significantly enhanced his development skills. He designed a comprehensive user profile page using ReactJS and TailwindCSS, incorporating features such as invoice viewing, account settings, and project tracking. He also implemented Stripe payments using the React Stripe module and ExpressJS, facilitating seamless subscription management and cancellations. He also constructed a newsletter module using React, integrated it with Mailchimp, and implemented conditional rendering and protected routes with Redux. These projects deepened his understanding of front-end development, payment processing, and state management while providing him with hands-on experience integrating third-party services.
Neel offers the following advice to students and alumni:
?? Focus on building a strong foundation in both the technical and soft skills required for the role.
?? Practical experience through internships, personal projects, or open-source contributions is invaluable.
?? Having a solid understanding of the tools and languages commonly used in the industry, such as React, Tailwind, and Python, will give you an edge.
?? Networking is key—connect with professionals in the field, attend industry events, and don’t hesitate to reach out to mentors who can guide you through the recruitment process and your early career stages.
