    Before the Switch#

    Most people in internship roles are still figuring out what they want. Shadab Rehan already knew. While working as an intern at Azure Skynet Solution, he was not waiting for opportunity to show up. He was building toward it. He enrolled in Coding Shuttle's Spring Boot Course at a stage in his career when most of his peers were still just getting comfortable with their first job. That early seriousness about learning is what set him apart.


    The Point Where Things Had to Change#

    Going from an internship to a full-time engineering role at Airtel, one of India's largest telecom companies, is a significant leap. It does not happen by accident. Shadab knew that if he wanted to be a serious candidate for technical roles at enterprise companies, he needed more than what college had taught him. He needed industry-relevant skills and he needed to get them fast.

    Learning Spring Boot while navigating the early pressures of career life takes real focus. Shadab had that focus.


    Where Coding Shuttle Came In#

    Coding Shuttle's Spring Boot program gave Shadab something most early-career developers do not get: structured, professional-grade learning that mirrors what companies actually expect from their engineers. The course moved from fundamentals to practical application in a way that prepared him for the kind of backend work he would face in the real world, not just for interviews but for the job itself.


    In Shadab's Own Words#

    "Overall Excellent Course. Highly Recommended to someone looking to master Spring boot and microservices"


    Where He Stands Today#

    Shadab Rehan is now a GIS Engineer at Airtel. He started as an intern and landed at one of India's biggest companies before many of his peers had even settled into their first full-time roles. His story is a reminder that the decisions you make at the start of your career compound faster than most people realize.
