What Uncodemy's Course Does NOT Include
(be aware before enrolling):

✗ Performance testing tools
  (JMeter is mentioned in trainer bios [citation:8]
   but not explicitly in the main course page)

✗ Advanced security testing
  (OWASP ZAP is listed, but depth unclear)

✗ Mobile testing specifics
  (BrowserStack covers some, but native
   mobile testing isn't explicit)

✗ CI/CD tools (Jenkins, GitLab CI)
  mentioned in Playwright course [citation:9]
  but not the core Software Testing course

✗ Cloud platform testing
  (AWS/Azure specifics)

What this means:
The core course covers manual + automation
+ API + database testing well.
If you need performance, security, or
mobile testing depth, ask about add-on
modules or specialized courses.

Uncodemy also offers:
☐ Automation Testing (2-4 months, ₹12,500) [citation:5]
☐ Playwright Automation (3-4 months, ₹10,500) [citation:5]

These can complement the core course.

From Akanksha Trivedi's LinkedIn
(completed Uncodemy's 8-month
Full Stack Software Testing course) [citation:4]:

"With hands-on experience on over
10 diverse projects, I've honed my skills in:
☐ Identifying critical defects
☐ Developing effective test strategies
☐ Collaborating with cross-functional teams
☐ Ensuring quality assurance"

What this means in practice:
☐ Not all 10 are "big" projects
☐ Some are focused exercises (login flow,
   payment gateway, API validation)
☐ The goal is *variety* — different
   domains, different test types
☐ You learn to write test cases,
   execute them, report defects

Uncodemy also mentions:
"Live Project Work — Solve real business
problems using actual datasets from
Fortune 500 companies" [citation:1]

Realistic interpretation:
☐ You'll practice on realistic scenarios
☐ Not necessarily "live production" work
☐ But structured to mirror real QA tasks

What to ask before enrolling:
☐ "Can I see examples of past student
   projects?"
☐ "How many projects will I complete?"
☐ "Are projects individual or team-based?"

How to Make Your Projects Count
(for interviews):

Don't just say "I did 10 projects."
Say:

"I tested an e-commerce checkout flow
and found 3 critical bugs in the payment
gateway that would have caused revenue
loss. I reported them in Jira with
reproduction steps and severity levels."

What interviewers want to hear:
☐ What you tested (specific feature)
☐ How you tested it (methodology)
☐ What you found (defects)
☐ How you reported it (Jira/process)
☐ What you learned (improvement)

Your project portfolio should include:
☐ Test case documents (even sample ones)
☐ Sample defect reports
☐ Screenshots of test execution
☐ A summary of what you tested and found

What NOT to do:
✗ List "10 projects" without detail
✗ Claim projects you can't explain
✗ Say "I tested a website" with no specifics

Uncodemy's project work gives you the
raw material. Your job is to package it
for interviews.

From Uncodemy's course page [citation:1]:

"Uncodemy helping students to Ace
Their Interview"

What's included:
☐ Live Project Work
☐ Career Transition roadmap
☐ Resume Building (ATS-friendly)
☐ Grooming Session (etiquette,
   corporate communication)
☐ Interview Session (tricky technical
   and behavioral questions)
☐ Mock Interview (with real interviewers
   from Amazon, Google, Microsoft)
☐ MNC Interview Calls (direct referrals
   to 500+ hiring partners)
☐ Salary Negotiation (20-40% higher)
☐ DSA Mastery (200+ curated problems)
☐ System Design (for senior roles)
☐ LinkedIn Profile optimization
☐ FAANG Strategies

Realistic assessment:
☐ Strong on interview *preparation*
☐ Resume + mock interviews + grooming
   cover the basics well
☐ The "500+ hiring partners" claim
   should be verified with specific names
☐ DSA and System Design are for
   senior roles — entry-level QA
   won't need as much depth

Questions to Ask Before Enrolling:

About mock interviews:
☐ "Who conducts the mock interviews?
   Are they real hiring managers or
   internal staff?"
☐ "How many mock interviews do I get?"
☐ "Can I get feedback after each one?"

About placement support:
☐ "Can you share names of 3 students
   placed in the last 6 months?"
☐ "What companies have hired your
   students recently?"
☐ "What happens if I don't get placed?
   Is there additional support?"

About the "500+ hiring partners" claim:
☐ "Which companies are actively hiring
   from you right now?"
☐ "Do you have direct referrals or
   just job board postings?"

Red flags:
✗ "100% placement guarantee"
   (no institute can guarantee this)
✗ Refusal to share specific names
✗ Pressure to enroll immediately

Note: Trustpilot has one negative review
(3.3/5 rating) claiming placement support
wasn't delivered [citation:13]. This is one
data point, but worth asking about.

Entry-Level QA Packages (from Uncodemy
placements):

Pratap Yadav: ₹3.5 LPA [citation:12]
Devansh Trivedi: ₹3.6 LPA [citation:14]

What this tells you:
☐ Realistic entry-level range: ₹3.0-4.0 LPA
☐ Companies: mid-size IT firms, not FAANG
☐ Roles: QA Engineer, Test Engineer
☐ Location: Noida/Delhi NCR

Compare to market averages:
☐ Fresher QA at service companies:
   ₹3-5 LPA (typical)
☐ Product companies: ₹5-8 LPA
   (but harder to get without experience)

What Uncodemy claims vs reality:
☐ Claim: "500+ hiring partners"
☐ Claim: "MNC interview calls"
☐ Claim: "Salary negotiation 20-40% higher"

Reality:
☐ Entry packages are modest (₹3.5-3.6 LPA)
☐ Negotiation training helps, but you need
   competing offers to negotiate effectively
☐ MNC calls depend on your interview
   performance, not just referrals

Honest assessment:
Uncodemy gets you *interview-ready* and
*connected*. They don't guarantee a job.
Your outcome depends on:
☐ Your project quality
☐ Your interview performance
☐ Market conditions

Questions to Ask About Placement:

Before enrolling:
☐ "Can you share names of 5 students
   placed in software testing in the
   last 6 months?"
☐ "What was the salary range for
   recent placements?"
☐ "Do you have dedicated placement
   staff or is it the same person
   doing sales?"
☐ "What happens if I don't get placed?
   Do I get additional support?"

About the "100% placement" claim:
☐ No institute can guarantee a job.
   The honest term is "placement assistance."
☐ Ask for *data*, not promises.

One negative review on Trustpilot [citation:13]:
"I have recommended software testing
course to my brother, course still not
completed from September and not a single
interview conducted, they told me it is
job guarantee course but I am waiting
for their reply January they don't bother
to talk..."

This is one data point. It doesn't mean
Uncodemy is bad — but it does mean you
should verify placement claims carefully.

Sulekha reviews are mostly positive [citation:7],
but they're focused on training quality,
not placement outcomes.

Best approach:
☐ Ask for specific, recent placement data
☐ Speak to a recent student (not one
   the institute selects for you)
☐ Have a backup plan (apply independently
   alongside Uncodemy's support)
