Cactro | India’s Fairest Technical Test
Dear freshers, If you're good at React and can show it through your projects. And if a company is paying you anything less than 30k per month then you deserve more. There are nuances to this, yes, but know the market. If you're good at something don't work for free.

53% in 10th. Dropped out of high school. Today: 5 years of developer experience. This is how Trishnangshu rewrote his future. Welcome to Cactro’s #SelfMade series. Meet @ts_goswami from Kolkata. He actually grew up as an artist. Sketching, painting, crafting. But school never worked for him. Rote learning killed his curiosity. That changed when he got his first computer in 5th standard. For him, it wasn’t just a computer, it was like freedom. After risking dropping out of high school, he joined a diploma course, picked up JavaScript and Angular, and started landing freelancing gigs. By his second year, he already had his first full-time job offer. That’s when he knew exactly: ‘the diploma course wasn’t the point, the learning was.’ He quit that diploma and never looked back. Fast forward 5 years today, Trishnangshu is a Frontend Engineer at Delta Exchange. When I asked him about the hardest part, he said: “With closed to fail scores and no degree, society assumed I wasn’t capable. I faced a lot of criticism from family and others who thought I was wasting my future. That doubt became my fuel.” His advice to beginners: “Stay curious. Don’t rush into coding just because others are. Explore, find what pulls you in, and then go deep. Opportunities come when you keep building yourself up bit by bit. Expertise takes time, enjoy that journey.” From sketching in Kolkata to building fintech platforms, Trishnangshu’s story proves: your scorecard isn’t your destiny. Curiosity can take you further than credentials ever will.

He was an art teacher with no coding background. Got insulted when he asked a question in training. Today, he leads AI initiatives at a global tech company. Welcome to Cactro’s #SelfMade series. Vilva (@vilvaathibanpb) grew up in Madurai, Tamil Nadu. After university, with a backlog in his degree and no CS background, his job options were limited. So he started working as an art teacher for kids until he got into IGate (an IT giant). During his training at IGate, he felt out of place. He had no interest in tech and no motivation. But his story was about to change. One day, when he asked a question to the “topper” of the batch, he was humiliated in front of everyone. He told me: “That insult triggered me. I rolled up my sleeves, worked through the assignment, and was the only one to finish it by evening. That day, I realised I was actually good at this.” He went from the least motivated to the topper across all IGate training batches that year, winning an award. But he knew he was meant for more. While others played games in the recreation room, Vilva spent his time learning new tech. He started with game dev, Android dev, and AngularJS through Udacity, freeCodeCamp, and YouTube. Eventually, he landed a project, but the work felt menial. So, he quit with only 6 months of runway. He was afraid, but he was willing to bet on himself (for once). He went all-in. From computer fundamentals to browser internals, from HTML/CSS under the hood to mastering JavaScript and AngularJS. Here comes the part that gave me goosebumps. Viva gave 25+ interviews and got rejected by all, but despite it all he continued. He built side projects, hosted events… and then he gave 4 interviews and landed 4 offers. Today, Vilva is leading AI initiatives at Omio. He’s a full-stack engineer, international tech speaker (50+ events, 7 countries), open-source contributor (OSS libraries with ~5,000 weekly downloads), and an avid traveller (25+ countries). His proudest achievement so far? He tells me, “Donating 25+ lakh INR to charity from my work and side hustles.” I love his advice for everyone in tech: “Control FOMO. Go deep into the tools you use. Master the basics and everything else becomes easier.” From being an art teacher with no CS degree to shaping AI products used worldwide, Vilva’s story proves: You can start anywhere and still make it everywhere. 👏👏👏

First year of college, she cried every day. Second year, she taught herself Python from scratch. Today, she builds open-source tools at DigitalOcean. Welcome to Cactro’s #SelfMade series. Haimantika didn’t plan to work in tech. She studied biology in school, scored higher in NEET than JEE, and only took up engineering because it was the most affordable path. She joined a local college in Siliguri and hated it. “I cried almost every day during my first year. I didn’t want to be there.” But she stuck around. And by second year, something shifted. She decided to make it worth it. With no access to bootcamps or mentors, she downloaded courses from torrents. Watched endless YouTube tutorials. And taught herself Python. She experimented with data science. Tried out multiple tech stacks. And eventually found her groove in web development. Her break came when she won a hackathon and landed an internship at Microsoft (her dream company). Later, she joined DigitalOcean, where she now builds open-source projects, speaks at global conferences, and writes technical content for developers worldwide. One of her proudest projects? Nomado - a tool she built from scratch that’s now used by 650+ people around the world. When I asked her what the hardest part of her journey was, she said: “Doing the extra work while people my age were partying. And waiting for that one big break took a toll on me.” Here’s her advice to other techies just starting out: “Dream big and be patient. And don’t just learn, network consistently. Most of my gigs came from Twitter.” Haimantika’s story is proof: You don’t need the perfect college, city, or resume. You just need grit, curiosity, and a the right set of eyes to build a career you love! 👏
