DESIS da DreaM Part I

Wow !,
I don't have words to express ( as well as time :P as I am doing IBM internship ) about my second placement @ DESIS ( D E Shaw India Software) .
I mean with such package in my hand I can do so many things for which I had almost ' 0 ' chances.
I was the most lucky person amongst four selected. Because of my algorithm ( one of the section in the aptitude )I cleared the aptitude. I take this opportunity to thank Nikhil a lot, not just in case of DESIS but over all just because him I could maintain my interest in C and Algo ( because when guests used to come to my home I used to go to his :P ).
As well as all my seniors who really guided me what I should go for; especially Ajinkya( KALE COACHING CLASSES lol ) and Ashish Gilda. I have troubled them a lot when I was not understanding some part of ' C ' or DS.
I had huge fun with them when we did MINDSPARK ( COEP techfest) last year, believe me doing an event with your seniors is the best way to interact with them ( Except than ragging. Unfortunately Being a ' localite ' I did not face ragging so 'hostelite' people may better explain about this one ).
As I am speaking about placement this year, Computer Engg. had a great start with 5 /6 placed in Oracle were from Computer Engg., and then came these self proclaimed losers and made Computer Engg. a loser, but ' Placement abhi baaki hain ' lets keep this healthy competition amongst us to excel.
But I must appreciate Sameer, for his well planned entry into DESIS. This person gets what he want in his life, let it be Nvidia project,let it be dream package,let it be IBM internship or any thing. Kudos to DESIS for selecting such a talented guy from da pool of damned good people.
Nikhil has always been a sleeping monster, once he is on, forget no one can stop him.
So DESIS people have really made a good impression on me, I mean just in one apti & interview how the hell they got the best guys from department ? ( Exceptions are there ;) ( me lol ) )
OK. next part coming soon ..... stay tuned ..
