About
Hey! I'm Pavan, a software engineer at Microsoft with experience as both a developer and product manager. I've gone through interviews and gotten offers from companies like Microsoft, Google, Amazon, Capital One, and Meta for full-time roles and internships. My mentees have gotten interviews and offers at Google, Microsoft, Anduril, Capital One, and Goldman Sachs. I’ve been mentoring, conducting mock interviews, providing resume advice, and more at for over a year now. Feel free to read my great reviews! I know the best resources for interview prep, resume building, and networking that I personally use and love to optimize my time-to-effort ratio.
Feel free to message me anytime with your availability over the next week or two and we can schedule a call!
What mentees say
5 out of 5 stars
I highly recommend Pavan as a tech mentor. He is very helpful, approachable, and friendly, and has strong technical knowledge along with a unique perspective on career strategy. I come from a non-tech background and am currently working towards transitioning into tech roles, and Pavan has played a key role in supporting me during this process.
