Coding Ninjas, well known in the Indian ed-tech space for everything related to coding; from learning to earning a living out of it, has concluded its annual flagship event – ‘Code Kaze’ which was in its 5th season this year. The coding competition saw participation from 1600+ colleges and 39,000+ students, this year. Bhartesh Kaushik & Atul Tyagi were adjudged as winners of the competition held on November 15, 2021.
? The competition which was hosted in partnership with Nasscom-Futureskills, pitched budding coders head-to-head against each other, and was different from a hackathon as it was curated in a manner that saw participation from even those not proficiently familiar with coding.
? Bharat Kaushik from Faridabad, the winner of the 1st prize of Rs.50,000 said, “The test had a good variation of questions. My advice to future participants would be to have a good command over DP and Trees.”
? The competition also featured a ‘Code Diva’ segment which included a special package of winnings and career-oriented opportunities, exclusively for female coders to encourage participation from the aspiring female coder community.
? The event also saw Coding Ninjas utilizing its extensive network of 300+ placement partners to provide colleges & students a high-profile exposure to the IT-corporates ecosystem.
? The core idea of the competition was to make the participants experience a competitive environment that is absolutely necessary whilst working for a corporation.
Coding can be everyone’s cup of tea, but students are either unaware of the opportunities or go through just enough education to get placed with an average salary. Thereby cutting down on their scope of becoming mainstream coders. Having witnessed the lack of teaching aptitude in the market, the founders at Coding Ninjas saw this more as the rightful thing to do, the business just followed as the by-product of quality services.
