About the Girls Wanna Code
<Girls Wanna Code/> is a Flipkart initiative launched in 2018 with the goal of promoting women’s talent in technology and offering them opportunities to work alongside the brightest minds in India’s tech industry.
This unique upskilling program aims to create a more balanced and inclusive tech ecosystem. As an organization, we are committed to addressing the underrepresentation of women in the tech field and work to bridge the skill gap, making women more industry-ready.
To support this cause, the program focuses on women-only tech campuses across India, which have often been overlooked. Over the years, GWC has successfully trained young women who have secured tech roles not only at Flipkart but also at some of the top companies in the country.
Eligibility:
<Girls Wanna Code/> 6.0 is open to all female engineering students enrolled in full-time B.Tech./B.E. (3rd and 4th year) or M.Tech./M.E. (all years) programs across various branches, from a selected list of women-only colleges across India.
Once you join the Scholar Cohort, based on the initial online test, you will receive a detailed plan outlining 4 learning modules. These modules will include a mix of self-paced assignments and facilitated sessions with industry experts from Flipkart, who will guide you through real-life problem statements. You will also be assigned a mentor to assist with query resolution and assignments, helping you develop a deeper understanding and truly enhance your skills.
After completing each module, there will be an assessment. Upon completing all 4 modules, we will evaluate the cumulative scores and select the Top 30 performers. These candidates will be invited to visit the Flipkart Headquarters (sponsored by Flipkart) and will also receive direct interview opportunities for SDE roles (both internship and full-time).
For the remaining cohort members, there will be a final assessment, after which they will be eligible for the interview process for the same roles. The interviews will be conducted virtually.
