- Fix defects reported by QA and reproduce customer-reported issues
- Write unit tests for the code they add and keep the suite green
- Build internal tools and scripts that remove manual work for the team
- Participate in daily stand-ups, sprint planning and code reviews
- Document what they built so the next person does not have to ask
Who is eligible
- B.E./B.Tech (CSE, IT, ECE)
- MCA

Software Developer trainee skills required
Six non-negotiables and the evidence to ask for, so you can filter a Kolkata shortlist without a technical interviewer in the room.
Must have — filter on these
Data structures & algorithms
Can reason about arrays, hash maps, trees and time complexity out loud — not just recite Big-O. A DSA problem solved live tells you more than a certificate.
One language, properly
Real fluency in Java, Python, C++ or JavaScript. Depth in one beats a resume listing six.
Object-oriented design basics
Can explain why they split a class, what an interface bought them, and where they would put shared logic.
SQL & data modelling
Writes a JOIN with a GROUP BY unaided and can sketch the tables behind a simple feature.
Git & code review
A GitHub history with real commit messages and at least one pull request that went through review comments.
Debugging discipline
Reads a stack trace top-down, reproduces before fixing, and can describe a bug they chased for hours.
Good to have — a shortlist bump
- A deployed project with a public URL, not just a repository
- REST API design and Postman familiarity
- Unit tests written without being asked
- Docker basics or any exposure to CI pipelines
- Open-source contributions, however small
Never filter on these. Treating a good-to-have as mandatory is the single most common reason a Kolkata role stays open — it removes strong candidates who would have learned it in a fortnight.

How to screen a software developer trainee in Kolkata
Four steps you can run in about an hour. Applications arrive the day you post — this is how to get from a hundred of them to a shortlist you trust.
Screen the GitHub, not the CV
Ten minutes on their repositories tells you whether the projects are real or tutorial clones. Look at commit frequency, README quality and whether anything is deployed.
One live coding problem, 30 minutes
A medium-difficulty problem shared on a collaborative editor. You are watching how they decompose the problem and handle a failing case, not whether they finish.
Ask them to explain their own code
Open a file from their best project and ask why it is written that way. Copied projects collapse in ninety seconds; real ones open up into a good conversation.
A short take-home only if paid or under two hours
Scope it to one endpoint or one screen. Longer unpaid tasks lose you the strongest candidates, who have other offers in hand.
