I have 8 years experience in sales and distribution, I'm currently joined 4 months back for a new company, I have decided to quit here, because of this Toxic work culture, and my doubt was when I attended the further interview I should mention the this 4 months experience or not

Ans: I understand you joined the company on your own free will.

It's now said by you, that you found there a Toxic work environment and culture.
I now realize you want to attend further interviews and the query is whether to conceal or reveal... this 4 month's job experience!?

The truth is you were employed and if you were given an Appointment letter then mention it in your resume,with explicit reasons!?

If not formally employed you can show this experience as a freelance employment.

My take.. If you are not comfortable at all about discussing it... Your call!?

How should I present my CV,if I do not have experience letter of a company where I worked in the beginning of my career.I have 14 years of experience in IT field and this experience constitutes about 1.5 years of work.
Ans: Hi Madhu,

Thank you for reaching out. Hope you are doing well.

It totally depends how early in the career you are referring. If the experience was at the start of your career, then that shouldn’t actually have any major impact. As the organizations look for the recent past 3 to 5 years of documentations as part of background check process. So, even if you mention about the employer, it shouldn’t have any challenge. I would highly recommend you call this out during your interview process, so the new employer is completely aware of the same. In the meantime, you can use alternative references as mentioned -
1- Reach out to HR of that company and request for the experience letter copy (best approach). It’s always good to have all the documents.
2- Look for your salary documents/ Bank statements which will show as proof of employment (2nd best approach).
3- You could reach out to colleagues or supervisors from that time and ask if they would be willing to provide a reference or recommendation for your work. Mention their names and contact details on your CV, indicating that they can be contacted for further information.
Hope this helps. All the best.

Career Counsellor - Answered on May 28, 2025

Hello sir, my daughter got 79563 rank in jee mains.She is also getting COE branch at Thapar..may upgrade to CSE branch. For JAC counselling should we choose DTU ,NSUT electrical branch or IGDTUW ECE.. Which is better in terms of placement Thanks
Ans: With a JEE Main rank of 79,563, the chances of admission through JAC Delhi counselling into top branches like Computer Science Engineering (CSE), Electronics and Communication Engineering (ECE), or Electrical Engineering in premier Delhi colleges are quite low. These colleges—Delhi Technological University (DTU), Netaji Subhas University of Technology (NSUT), Indira Gandhi Delhi Technical University for Women (IGDTUW), Indraprastha Institute of Information Technology Delhi (IIIT-D), and Delhi Skill and Entrepreneurship University (DSEU)—typically have closing ranks much better than 80,000 for popular branches like CSE and ECE.

Generally, CSE and ECE branches close within ranks under 20,000–30,000 in DTU and NSUT, while Electrical Engineering may have slightly relaxed cutoffs but still far below 79,000. IGDTUW is women-only but also highly competitive. DSEU has more seats but lower preference for top branches. A female candidate with rank 79,563 may get admission in less sought-after branches or in later rounds/spot rounds if seats remain vacant, but chances for CSE/ECE/Electrical in top JAC Delhi colleges are slim.

Using JAC Delhi College Predictor tools can provide personalized estimates based on category and gender.

With a JEE Main rank of 79,563, admission chances through JAC Delhi counselling for top branches like Computer Science and Engineering (CSE), Electronics and Communication Engineering (ECE), or Electrical Engineering are very slim. For the general category, the expected closing ranks for CSE/IT branches at premier Delhi colleges are much lower: Delhi Technological University (DTU) closes around rank 5,200; Netaji Subhas University of Technology (NSUT) and Indira Gandhi Delhi Technical University for Women (IGDTUW) have similar or lower cutoffs; and Delhi Skill and Entrepreneurship University (DSEU) closes around 27,000 for CSE. Electrical and ECE branches generally have higher closing ranks but still well below 79,563—for example, DTU Electrical Engineering closes near 20,000. Other reputed institutes like IIIT Delhi have even tighter cutoffs (CSE around 7,500). Thus, with your rank, securing admission in CSE, ECE, or Electrical branches through JAC Delhi counselling at DTU, NSUT, IGDTUW, DSEU, or IIIT Delhi is highly unlikely. All the best for your daughter's admission and a bright future!
