“What is your career plan?”

“Honestly Sir, I do not know. I think I’ll work for two years and then do an MBA.”

“Let us turn the tables. Here is a guy who does not know what he wants to do with his life. Why should I select you?”

“Because I have good credentials.”

He held my resume in front of himself and said mockingly, “6.3 CGPA and you claim good credentials???”

I flipped, and replied truculently- “Sir, I am not stupid. I have more technical papers than the average nine pointer, have business plans, have a certificate from IIM, was the Ed in Chief for a website, have spent my college life on stage and sing very well. What more do you want from me?”

He just smiled and said that he wanted to see my reaction. I joined the Sales and Marketing team of Think and Learn Private Ltd. (BYJU’S Classes) the following Tuesday. I was a little apprehensive at first as I wasn’t a big fan of the company. I had blanked out in the GD the first time they came for placements (Spent the afternoon crying after Sachin’s retirement, while missing a chance to watch it in Wankhede). My parents took some convincing as well, as I chose it above TCS.

The good thing about working in a start-up is that you learn many things very fast. Within the first month, I learnt about CRM which typically takes in 3-4 months in companies like TCS. I knew what, when and how to say things, got acquainted with the corporate culture and could even manage an accounts sheet (still has some glitches). The fact that majority of the office is filled with your college batch mates and that your seniors and their seniors are all Mighty MITians, helps a great deal to keep the office environment chilled out (They understand that MITians need different kinds of refueling breaks).

Run by a small town chap from Kerala with an almost unrealistic optimism, one could see that he trusted his methods without doubt. An entire educational firm being run on just his unique methods of teaching sounds like a pretty plausible feat. And they are all sustainable! Remember the few teachers we always wished who could teach us all the subjects throughout our academic life? Well, Byju Raveendran comes very close to the same. Two teachers for the entire CAT course- him and the humble genius who makes you feel worthless if you do not plan to do post graduation (attend his first class and you’d know what I’m talking about) – Santosh P.N. He gives mathematical formulae for Reading comprehensions!!!

I never attended BYJU’S Classes when in college as the high school disaster with coaching institutes still lingered. People gave me all kind of reviews, all of which eventually boiled down to one of the more obvious conclusions, ‘You need to put in more effort than an average institute’. A cricket ball only reverses after being worked upon an entire session.  Santosh Sir always points out- getting the 99 percentile is just the first step towards your Managerial degree; he wants his students to prepare for the degree as well. Byju Sir would teach one method and then interpolate to ten others. One of my reporting managers once told me, “After BYJU Sir’s session the enrolments generally double; he has a knack of mesmerising the crowd.” These guys are always looking for more convenient methods of teaching and incorporate technology very well.

A year back, two teachers ran a score of centers through V-Satellites lectures. Today, the same two teachers have managed to take it to the next level, providing the same to thousands of students using Tablets. You see investors storming in every week, new methods for customer engagement, advertisements in theatres and newspapers and what not!!! And of course, the infinite travel across the country (even though there is a lot of work, we do get Saturday nights to chill in every city).

Too much??? Well okay, enough of going gaga over the company then. I just hope my bosses read this and I get a piece of the cake as well 😉     Ciao!!

For all the people asking about work-life balance, I am now part of a firm (All Byju’s Employees) that does freelance Design work on the side as well. Check us out:  Design Crescendo

I have launched an illustrated poetry book designed by Design Crescendo. Hope you guys can get a copy and review it.

Think & Learn Pvt. Ltd. Placement/Job FAQs

How someone got a Sales job as a fresher with BYJU’S

Irony of education in India (BYJU’S Experience)

595 thoughts on “First Job with BYJU'S Classes (Think & Learn Pvt. Ltd.)”
  1. Once I join think and learn, will i surely get sales and marketing? Because i dont want anuthing other than it. Any suggestions?

  2. Hey recently Think and learn came for campus placement in my college and I got selected for BDA.
    So are you a BDA too? and if yes can you please tell me what kind of work you do there and hows the working environment there?
    I am a computer science student and I am really confused whether to take up the offer or not.

    1. Yes, I worked in the Sales department for a year before shifting to marketing. The BDA profile mainly contains B2C sales. You shall be required to call up potential students for our course. Eventually as you find your niche in the company, you shall have more managerial responsibilities and shall be given a team. The learning curve is very good. Nutshell- Want a tech job- don’t come. Want to do management eventually- Welcome to the company.

  3. Think and Learn is coming to our college as well,, so i was just wondering where do they usually place you like Bangalore or where??

  4. Think and learn is coming to our college..can anyone plss tell me what kind of questions they r asking..n what is the level of gd they r taking??

      1. Hey Prannay,
        Wanted to ask you something, regarding the internship offer. ihave received the email from Byjus Classes, it stated 3 months internship. so what about the conversion to a permanent employee? How would that play out?

  5. Think and learn is coming to my college as well i want to know some guidelines to crack the gd nd interview

  6. Hi i got interview call letter for BDA . i need to know wat is the salary package for BDA … can u able to help me out in this . Will i get any opportunity in software field in BYJU’s

  7. i just got placed.. i have two questions
    1)does 6 lpa mean i get 50000 per month?
    2)if there is a possibility of becoming a faculty, is it better than sales and marketing?

  8. I got selected in think and learn for BDA profile.. But, still they didnt disclose the salary package.. How much package can i ask or how much usually they give?? What will be my average take home??

  9. My son has been shortlisted in campus by Think and learn. I would like to know about future growth if he continue work for this company

    1. Sir
      I believe your son is selected for the BDA profile. He shall start in the sales department and would do B2C sales. Later he shall be given a team to handle as new recruits come in. Hope to see your son with us soon 🙂

  17. hi your blog is really intriguing and talks knowledge
    i have few queries hope you will help me with them
    i recently got placed in think learn as a BDA but i got to hear from people that many companies recruit students at mass level but then during training period fire maximum students and just keep few students for full time job . Is this the case with think and learn also ?
    hoping for an hosnest reply .

  18. Hi, We had T&L recruitment drive in SRM UNIV, chennai OCT’2015. when will we getting the results, how will we be intimated

  19. hi prannay , i wanted to ask you that well i recently got placed in think and learn but did not receive any offer letter so far so when will i receive the letter
    also i wanted to know that i heard from people that companies that recruit large number of students fire many students during internship period and select very few for full time job . is this true with think and learn also?

  20. Hi pranay jha. Im from srm univetsity.
    Badicslly i have thrre queries
    1) some people have been saying that the placed list we got in srm university kattankullathur is just the students shortlisted for iternship and job isnt sure. Is this true ?
    2) when will the internship start? During the pre placement talk we were told that it will start from january, but now we have been hearing it starts from december. Is this true?
    3) is the training cumpolsory for he month of december because we also have exams then

  21. hi prannay i am from sharda university …. i recently got placed i would like to know that when will we receive the letters also i have heard that students have just been selected for the internship period , as your training gets over majority of students are told they are not fit for the company
    is this true ?
    hoping for an honest reply

  22. I have been selected for think and learn.Since my internship starts for DEC I want to know that since there is no bond what is job security

    1. The internship dates are still tentative. When it comes to job security, you shall be evaluated after your internship for conversion. You’d then be on probation for a couple of months and then shall become a permanent employee. In all scenarios, rejection rate is lesser than 10%, so don’t worry.

  23. Hi prannay.. Stoll no update from your side! We are waiting for our letters? Any idea as to how much time will it take?

  24. hi pranay, im from srm as well. i have been shortlisted for internship. i want to know how long will the internship be. what will be the pay during internship and does the company provide any accommodation ?

  25. hello again, we have been asked for willingness for the internship. previously we were unknown of the duration of the internship. a lot of us have a problem with the internship starting from december. we would be more than glad if the internship is after the completion of our course i.e from may/june. can anything be done about this? or can u suggest me to whom i can contact about this issue?

  26. Hi prannay, recently got selected for bda profile on campus. Few queries regarding it-
    1. All are selected for internship offer ( about 160 from srm). Could you please elaborate about the conversion factor. Is it yet again a process to eliminate or like a training programme.
    2. About job security. I currently have four other assured offers. I don’t wanna take a risk,considering my financial status.

    1. 1. Above 90% conversion. It is more of a training process rather than elimination. Unless you really suck at your work, you are fine.
      2. Firing is a rarity in the BDA profile.

  27. Hi pranay,
    I’m from SRM university and have been selected for the post of BDA from the campus. Actually I had a few doubts in my mind, if you could clear those. One being, we were told that the recruitment is for I and P+I basis both but then the list that came out did not clearly specify as to which section does one belong too, is there any way one could get to know where one stands? And the other, it was always maintained that the internship will start in the month of jan but all of a sudden we got to know that it’ll probably be from december. There hasn’t been any official announcement by the company regarding the same, what is the situation about that? If only you could clarify both the points as ones future course of action will vary according to the clarification given by you.
    I’ve been trying to comment on this blog for a while now, but somehow it’s not accepting it.

    1. Hey Aishwarya. Regarding the P+I details, please contact your placement department as we have given them the list. The Internship time is still not fixed. We are trying to bring in the new recruits in an orderly manner. Most probably SRM is looking at something close to 20th Dec.

  28. Hello Pranay!
    I have read few reviews about T&L on Glassdoor website and they were very, well how should I put it , maybe against it. Because working is like 12hrs a day with 6 days in a week with lots of target to be achieved. Employees are not treated well.
    So would you suggest me to join this company if I am an enthusiast for marketing and creating field?

    1. I love working. Sales is typically 9hr/day. Product Development can be upto 12 due to deadlines. BTW the entire PD team is on a company sponsored Goa trip right now! Your choice 🙂

  29. Hello Prannay,
    I have recently got an internship for BDA profile .I have a doubt in my mind regarding this. Like being a computer science student, is it okay to join it or not like the future scope ??

      1. Hi prannay.
        I have two questions.
        1.Will I get time to prepare for MBA exams, as it’s a hectic job schedule.

        2. If I can’t do MBA and if I’m leaving byjus company after 2/3 years (let’s say if I have been promoted as a BD manager) wt will be my opportunities in marketing career without MBA especially what kind of company and salary will I get?

        Please clarify my doubts sir

  30. Hello prannay!
    Since you are the employee of think and learn, i need to clarify one thing. I have been offered internship + placement. So is it compulsory for me to attend the internship as during this time my college will be working. Will appreciate the help.

    How much could we expect per month excluding all other incentives..?

  40. Hey I read some reviews on Glassdoor. Its seems the employees do not have much fun there? Is there no work-life balance? Do we have to work 12 hours a day? I also read sundays are not off so is it a 7-day a week schedule? I am confused. I am ready to work my ass off but what’s the use of living in Bangalore if you can’t go to any pubs given the 12-hour 7-day a week schedule.. Please help.

          2. Alright Sir, forgive me for being a lil doubtful, so if i don’t get a mail i can join later like you said.
            But I have an exam on the 20th actually. Would the very next day suffice?
            So leaves are a no go?

          3. Sir, Okay so if i dont recieve an email , i come on 21st. ?
            Or i come on 21st either wayy,cause I’ve to book the tickets and stuff.

  67. Hello Sir,
    I got selected for internship+placement from Amity University Uttar Pradesh drive. We have been informed that the joining date is during the 1st week of January, but, as our last semester will end by the last week of January, could our joining dates be postponed to 1st February?

      1. Thank you so much.
        So, how do I make it official, as the offer letter, which we would receive, would contain dates from January? So will that be valid if we join from February as well, or would we need a letter stating dates from February?

  69. hello sir,
    I am from Manipal University Jaipur and i got the I+P offer from Think and Learn.
    I have few doubts regarding think and learn’s placement.
    1. Our university was asked to send the preference of the students for internship as in when do they want to start their internship in January or in June. I gave my preference January as when the preference was asked i had no technical internship in hand but just yesterday i.e 11/12/2016 i got a confirmation from the company i wanted to do my technical internship but i want to join Think and Learn only.
    So my doubt it is it possible to change my preference from January to June now so that i do the technical internship from other company for 4 months and join think and learn from June? whom do i contact for changing the same?
    2. We still have not got the offer letter from Think and Learn when do we expect it?
    3. Where will be our office for internship as well as placement?
    4. If I start my internship from June what will be the procedure? How long internship will take place?

    1. 1. Not possible. Internship from Jan compulsory.
      2. You would get a mail within a week.
      3. Dairy Signal Koramangala.
      4. You can’t start your internship from June.

      1. hello sir
        i m from srm university
        R der any prep we need to do before the internship?
        i have been selected only for internship so i m worried about getting a job
        Lot of people r coming over der.. so will u actually take these many?

  70. Hello Sir,
    You recently said that joining from February for the internship is possible, with respect to my previous query. So, how do I make it official, as the offer letter, which we would receive, would contain dates from January? So will that be valid if we join from February as well, or would we need a letter stating dates from February?

  71. hello sir!

  81. Hi,

    I got placed at Think & Learn through the campus drive at SRM University. Does the internship include a technical project? If not we’ll have to do a separate technical project at our University.

  85. Hey prannay,
    I am from SRM university and I just wanted to know if we would be provided with any accommodation during the internship? I know it’s been mentioned in the previous comments that it won’t be but then only recently I got to know from somewhere that some people are provided with one. So if you could clarify my doubt ASAP, I can start with the house hunting process.

  86. Sir/Mam,
    I am selected through campus recruitment program for “Internship” in Think & Learn. But few of my friends got “Internship + Placement”. So, basically I have few doubts.

    1) Does our good performance in Internship can ensure us permanent job in company or it’s just an internship program?

    2) What benefit do students under “Internship + Placement” have over students with only “Internship”?

    3) What about accommodation facility for interns?

    I was recently selected for P+I (March) at Think and Learn during the pool drive conducted in Kochin,Kerala.I would like to know when would the offer letters be sent.

    Thank You

  105. Hi Prannay !

    If I remain in byju’s for an year …. How much in hand cash will I get ? . (Like exact figure out of 6lpa )

  106. Do you have any business analyst opportunity in your company ? Do you hire business development associates into such analyst job responsibilities? Like Business development analyst !!!

  107. We were told during the ppt that the internship is for 2 months . But in my offer letter it is mentioned as 6 months. How long is the internship exactly ?

  108. I was told that at think and learn, people at all levels including the managerial level’s job is to make calls to the customer. They term it as BPO . So is it true ? Does people have different responsibilities ?

    1. At the basic level you’ll start with b2c. Eventually you’ll have managerial responsibilities and move away from calling. We have various other ways of business but yeah b2c calling is the primary one right now.

  109. Hey Prannay, I’m a student of D J Sanghvi from Mumbai, our campus drive was back in October and the results were our pretty quick as well. But we haven’t received any update from Think and Learn after that. Should we expect the offer letter 45 days prior to the joining? Our college ends in June.

    Thank You.

I recently had my PI, and at the end the interviewer asked me if I wanted to add anything, and in trying to sell myself, I told him about a childhood incident where I bought stickers for Rs 1 each and sold them to my colleagues at Rs 10 each. But now I’m afraid he might think of it as unethical. I badly want this job. Can you just tell what you would’ve done if you were the interviewer? Thanks!

  112. I got the mail to join T&L and it reads letter of internship..
    Is it just a letter of internship or I am being called for internship now and will be told if its a p+i offer, later

  113. Hey, I’m a student of School Of Engineering CUSAT,the campus drive for T&L was back in October and my college ends towards the end of april.I did not receive any kind of follow up after that,should i be worrying?

  122. Hi prannay,
    Isha Bhamre here. I got an email today regarding the placement offer for think and learn as a BDA. And the joining date is 6th June. This offer letter came as a pleasant surprise and I would love to join but I have a query. I did not know whom to turn to or where to address this problem so I’m asking you. My exams are getting over on 30th may. And I’m going for a Himalayan trek by the Youth Hostel Association of India from 2nd June. And it’s for 9 days. I’ve already booked and paid the money for the same. Is there any possibility that my joining date can be delayed? Any help from your side would be appreciated. And If the joining is inevitable I am more than willing to join on June 6th. Just wanted to know if there is any possibility in this regard.
    Thank you.

  123. There was a placement process conducted in our college at Shah and anchor kuttcchi engineering college , mumbai on 2nd may. We were told results will be out in 2 days. We still haven’t received any response. Please help us with the same. Please reply , very worried

Hi pranay, m from rajiv gandhi institute mumbai university and i was selected for the internship in month of November, according to results my joining is in june but till now i did not receive any mail from the organization neither a follow up ,please help me out ,i am very worried as i am really interested in this profile.

      1. Hi this is abishek . T&L came for campus recruitment last September and till now we haven’t received any mail or offer letter,they just Said us the results. Last week we got an info that our joining will be on 23rd of may and joining place is banglore . Should we wait for the offer letter or mail someone or ask my college to do something or anything else we can do?
        One more query. Is there any dress code and will we be given a temporary place to stay till we find house in banglore?

        1. You’ll get your offer letter after you join. No dress code as such. Shoes, Jeans/pant and a collared Tshirt/Shirt. No, we do not provide accommodation.

        2. I just got my offer letter. On my campus drive they never said about internship they said an 8 lpa package and they mentioned that no training will be given for u guys. I am from NIT jamshedpur and I got an offer letter for internship. I msged the hr and they r saying that u have to undergo internship to get the job offer. Y is it so.? Y r they confusing us?

      2. Hey prannay..I am from SRM University.I got selected in Think & Learn in Oct but didn’t go for internship in january as we got this willingness form in which we had this option of joining after completion of course.But i havent received any offer or mail from the company while others have received and their joining date was 6th of june..I am quite worried about that..

  125. Hi pranay…there was a placement process being conducted in ghaziabad hiet college..that was a pool campus held on 11 may,2016…so when we shall get the final selection result..?

  126. Hi prannay
    I m a student of Srm
    My friend filled my referral and I got a call saying I m selected
    My date of joining is June 6
    I got a call from byjus but till now I didn’t get any mail
    Please let me know wen ll I get it

  127. Hey. I recently attended think and learn’s off campus drive at ghaziabad -hi-tech college. Wanted to know when will the results be out for that? thanks in advance.

    1. Hey r u from which college….i was also selected for PI round…i m a student of Hitech , ghaziabad….just waiting for the result

      ..krishna

  128. Hey Prannay, there was a pool campus drive held on 11 may at Hitech college,ghaziabad and its been around 10 days we did not get the results,please let us know when will we get it.

  129. Hello there. T&L recruited me last September. I am a M. tech student from NIT Jamshedpur. Didn’t receive any mail yet? Some of my colleague’s received their letter. what should i do? I’ve already waited a long for T&L to mail me at least one single mail regarding the joining or lets say even a “congratulation!” mail for that matter. What company does not revert to their recruits even once after recruitment. Please look into this whole enchilada of communication gap between between the company and its employees. I was excited about joining T&L once. Hope i wont receive the most awaited joining letter after i steer away my career to something else.

  130. Hey Pranay ,I got placed at think and learn in the pool campus drive held on 11 may at Hiet college,Ghaziabad and the results came on 23 may and my status is internship+placement,so can you tell me the expected joining date and when will I receive a confirmation from the organization
    hope for a quick response from you
    thank you

  131. Hey pranay,got placed in think and learn and received an email of joining on 6 june,but my semester exams are getting over on 3 june so require a week time as it would be quite difficult to relocate with in this time from delhi to bangalore. I have already dropped a mail yesterday regarding extension of my joining for a week .So will it be done?so that i can book my tickets accordingly,hoping for the positive reply.

      1. Thanks for the reply ,but just wanted to know that if i dont get a reply,would i require some official confirmation or u can send me some mail confirming the extension.,because that would be important for me in reporting date

          1. So it means,that as i have mailed my query that is sufficient ,reply from organization is not mandatory. I won’t face any problem if i join on 13 june without getting any official confirmation from organization regarding it.

          2. Same issue with me. I have mailed a few people and one of them replied asking for a tentative date of joining. Have mailed them. Hope will get a reply coz its too soon right now!

  132. Sir, I have received an internship offer letter and I am supposed to join on 6th june. Since, my semester exams will last till 3rd june, it is getting really difficult for me to be in bangalore on 6th. Is it possible to delay the joining date for a week ?

  133. I took part in think and learn recruitment drive that was held on 8th april in RERF college, kolkata. I had cleared the 1st round and went for the final round. Are the results of that particular drive out yet…???

      1. got the results and m selected. During the pre placement talk, we were told that the joining will be on 16th june…..but still I havent received any offer letter or any kind of official mail from the company. When can I expect that…???

  134. Hey Pranay,
    Am placed in think and Learn in the sales and marketing field this year. Can you please tell me about the working hours and the no. of days we have to work in a week. Also another doubt was there regarding the incentive thing, we were told a 5 l + 1 l variable. Is it exactly 1 or 2 lakh ?

  135. Respected Sir/Madam,

  147. Hey, Pranay
    There is a pool campus drive at UEM kolkata on 30th September 2016. I am a final year student at Btech in CSE. ALong with Btech students, MBA students are also allowed to sit for the interview. What i am asking is that is there any chance what so ever for Btech students to crack the interview while there are MBA students sitting alongside. I mean will the MBA students be given preference than Btech students?

  148. Hello pranay,
    I was placed in think and learn for both placement and intern as it visited our campus on September 1st .My query is when we would be called for the intern in Dec or Nov end?
    And many of my frnds from SRM university are pinging me that many people from that university who have been Offered with both P+I were also sent back jobless without any call letters after completion of their intern is that true? In that case how can u assure us from these type of spreading talks.Please reply me.

    1. Most probably Dec. You should understand that we are offering you a Sales profile that is a target based job. Failing to meet the targets consistently for 2-3 months shall result in termination irrespective of whether you are a permanent employee or intern. That said about 5-10% of total people joining were not offered full time employment (majority with internship only).

    1)will we get a technical project to submit to our college as final year project?
    2)Heard that..the package has increased to 7 LPA after the Chan Zuckerberg’s foundations investment..in our company..Is it true or just rumours?
    3)do we have team outings,parties and celebrations? Heard that we ll be offered dinner party at Taj once we meet the targets by the end of the month 😉
    4)what is the working hour..nd what are the flexible timings… Whatz the expected average monthly salary in hand for BDA
    Oops!sorry for the xtra question :p..waiting wid eager for ur response 🙂

  199. Hello, I am a final year Btech student and had recently attended a pool campus recruitment on 20th DECEMBER 2017 which was held at UEM CAMPUS,Kolkata. As we were told that the result would be declared within a week , so if you kindly could give me the infomation about whether the result of 20th
    December has already been declared or not or should i wait furthur for the result .

  200. Hey Prannay,

    I attended the interview on Saturday,23rd Dec 2017 at Ranchi and got selected as a Business Development Associate. I received the confirmation mail stating my joining date. I am a working professional and because of some obligations and commitments at my current workplace I won’t be relieved within the stipulated time given to me for joining. I am trying to communicate the same to the concerned but don’t have any details of the same. It would be great if you an help me out in this case with the contact details of the concerned person so that I can forward my request. I am looking forward to this exciting opportunity.

  201. Hi Pranay,
    Appreciate your writeup for all questions posted here..Is it worth Joining byju as BDA after a handful years of experience (5+) completely in a different sector..? How wil be the growth options??

    1. I’d say that you shouldn’t if you are joining as a BDA itself. I’d suggest sticking to something that you’ve experience in. In any case, the growth option in Byju’s is pretty good. You can be up for a managerial post in as soon as a year.

  202. Hello Prannay,
    In continuation to my previous question I mailed the same to the requisite ID and also at different ID i got from other source. I didn’t get the reply in any of them and have been waiting for it. Can you please help me out with HR or those who looks after the joining process. I need to have a confirmation about the dates as I have to put that for my relieving process too. It would be great if you can help me out in this case.
    You can mail me at rajbirsandhu.bit@gmail.com in case of any queries or more information.

  203. Hi Pranay!

    I had applied for the interview round(BDA) in Delhi on 15th of July,2018.
    I have cleared the BYJU’s interview round and have just received my call letter/Interview result. My training starts from 30th in Bangalore and then Chandigarh.
    During the interview, I had mentioned my preferred location as Delhi(Due to some unavoidable family obligations), but I have been allotted Chandigarh as my Role Location. I am more than excited to work with the excited group of go-getters, but leaving Delhi is a personal problem that can’t be overcome.

    Even if I don’t specifically get Delhi, I am more than happy to work in the NCR region(Noida, Gurugram). Really looking forward to work with the team, but after discussing the issue with my parents and other family members, the conclusion remains the same. It is very difficult for me to leave those obligations behind.

    Please suggest what can be done.
