Hackathon select vs GET (generic) is there any difference?

Something about the campus hackathon hiring process doesn’t quite add up to me — and I’m curious if anyone has figured this out.

During our campus post-hackathon hiring process, a lot of students were initially rejected. Later, many of them received another opportunity to appear for selection — including profiles like Networking/Security. From what I’ve seen, more than half of the students who participated eventually seem to have made it through this second route.

But here’s where it gets interesting.

There appear to be two different offer structures:

GET hires:

• Offer mentions around ₹3.75 LPA

• No training period is explicitly mentioned in the offer letter

• Seems like they are directly being hired as FTEs

Hackathon-selected candidates:

• 13 weeks of training

• ₹20,000/month stipend during training

• After successfully completing the training, they get converted to FTE

So my question is:

Are GET hires already confirmed as FTEs from Day 1, while hackathon-selected candidates are essentially going through an additional training/evaluation phase before receiving FTE status?

If that's the case, the difference is pretty significant — especially since the hackathon route involves a 13-week training period with a ₹20k stipend, while the GET offer appears to put candidates directly on the ₹3.75 LPA package.

Or am I misunderstanding the terminology/offer structure?

Would really appreciate it if someone who has gone through this process — especially someone with the actual offer letter details — could clarify.

Maybe there’s a distinction between GET, FTE, and post-hackathon conversion that I’m missing.

Correction 13 weeks training

Is my career at a dead end?

Is my career at a dead end?

I joined HCL Technologies as a Graduate Engineer Trainee fresher and I’m currently working as a ServiceNow Developer.

I’m honestly worried that I’ve already put myself into a career dead end. My long-term goal was to become a proper Software Developer/SDE and eventually move to a product-based company, but now I’m confused about whether my current role will make that transition difficult.

I feel like my college placement basically screwed me over. 😭

Since I’m starting with ServiceNow, will recruiters for SDE/developer roles consider my experience relevant? Or will I be treated as someone with a completely different tech background?

Is it actually possible to switch from ServiceNow development to a general Software Developer/SDE role at a product-based company after 1–2 years?

If anyone has made a similar transition, I’d really appreciate some honest advice on what I should do from here.

TL;DR: Joined HCL as a GET fresher -> ServiceNow Developer. Want to eventually move into SDE/software development at a product-based company. Did I make a career-limiting choice, or can I still switch?

Update UAN

Hello, I joined HCLTech recently.

While updating UAN on hcl portal, after typing UAN it asks for Last Working Day (LWD) of previous company.

But the thing is I am Fresher and do not have any previous company.

So my question is what to fill as Date in LWD.

HCLTech delayed EPFO Date of Exit (DOE) — How to fast-track the update?

Hi everyone,

I’m a former HCLTech employee and my Date of Exit (DOE) is still not updated in EPFO, even though my employment has already ended.

I’ve been trying to get this resolved through the HCLTech offboarding/HR process, but I’m not getting a response from the concerned team. The delay is now affecting my EPFO-related work and joining formalities with my next employer.

Would really appreciate it if someone from HCLTech or anyone who has gone through this recently could share the exact process route that worked for them.

Onboarding calls only on Thrusday !! Anyone received today?

Got selected for GET role in HCL. It was on-campus, cleared the hackathon etc as well. For BGV and onboarding process and all, all my batchmates have received calls only on thrusday. 3 weeks consecutively. This week no one has received from our college.
Just wondering if it was just our college, or no calls have been made on this day!
Please Comment if you have received the onboarding as well
