What To Do Until You Receive Your Joining Letter?

Lot of CEans have been offered jobs through campus recruitment but have not received their joining letters yet. This has led to frustration among many and I think it's important to utilize the time constructively.

It has been (probably) long time since you answered your last semester exam. It'd be a nice idea to go through your final year subjects once purely for 'obtaining knowledge' than 'clearing the exams'. It will help you be prepared with the basics of engineering and help you in the long run.

You may also consider working for a startup: A company that is very very new and working on some innovative technology : for free, if required. Do not underestimate the knowledge you will obtain by working for startups. In fact, nothing would come closer to it.

Learn something new, acquire a new skill. For example, if you are not very comfortable with English, you may join a local English speaking course without being embarrassed about it. See, let me tell you - no one really cares about what you we do; but it would be even more embarrassing in the corporate world when you interact with others/clients purely in English.

If anyone's doing something entirely different from what I've mentioned above, feel free to share it with us. Lot of fresh engineers would benefit from it.
