It doesn’t matter what stream you are from. You are judged on the basis of your skills and potential, not the stream you chose. 95% of Appointy team is from non CSE background. 🙂

Q. What not to expect from Appointy?
Appointy is not a training program. You’ll experience how working at a startup feels like, but you won’t be spoon-fed. You are supposed to find your domain and contribute by being creative. You will learn to ideate, plan and execute things.
