📖 From Struggling Fresher to Founder

"I applied to 500+ jobs. Got rejected 487 times. That's when I decided to build something that would help freshers like me."

🎯 My Story - The Reality of Being a Fresher in India

My name is Ram Kumar. After graduating in 2024 with a Computer Science degree, I was excited to start my IT career. But reality hit hard.

Every job posting I saw asked for "2-3 years experience." How was I supposed to get experience without a job? I spent months on LinkedIn, Indeed, and Naukri.com - applying to hundreds of positions. Most applications were never even viewed. The ones that were viewed? Rejected within days.

I felt hopeless. My parents were worried. My friends were getting placed. And I was stuck in an endless loop of applications and rejections.

📊 The Numbers That Changed Everything:
• 500+ applications sent
• 487 rejections (or no response)
• 13 interviews
• 1 offer after 8 months
• 0 help for freshers in the job market

💡 The Idea That Started It All

After finally landing my first job, I realized something: The problem wasn't me. The problem was that there was no platform designed specifically for freshers. All job portals show senior positions mixed with entry-level roles. Freshers waste hours filtering through jobs they're not qualified for.

So I decided to build ApplyMore - a platform that:

✓ Shows ONLY fresher and junior-level IT jobs
✓ Automatically filters out senior roles
✓ Updates daily from LinkedIn and Indeed
✓ Focuses on Indian cities where freshers actually live
✓ Is completely FREE because no fresher should pay to find a job

👨‍💻 Who Am I Today?

I'm still a junior developer, still learning every day. But I've gone from being a fresher who couldn't get a single interview to someone who built a platform helping thousands of freshers find jobs.

ApplyMore is my way of giving back. Every job listed here is hand-verified. Every feature is built with freshers in mind. And every update comes from my own experience of struggling to find that first opportunity.

📍 What We Cover

Cities: Hyderabad, Bangalore, Chennai, Mumbai, Pune, Delhi, Gurugram, Kolkata, Ahmedabad, Noida

Roles: Data Analyst, Software Engineer, Java Developer, Python Developer, DevOps Engineer, Data Scientist, Cyber Security, Apprenticeships

Experience: 0-2 years (strictly fresher and junior roles)

⭐ My Promise to You

ApplyMore will ALWAYS be free. No premium plans, no hidden charges, no paywalls. Every fresher deserves a fair chance at starting their career, regardless of their financial situation.

🎯 My Goal: Help 10,000 IT freshers in India find their first job by December 2026.
