Though I guess if I had to give you advice about getting into one ... it's not as hard as you make it sound. Your (relatively) bad CGPA isn't that much of a handicap. What wtfoo said is quite true though. Likely for any opening, your resume will be one of 50 landing on the hiring manager's desk, how will you make yours stand out so that you're called to the interview? And how will you make yourself stand out during the interview?

Same case here. I have been working in MNCs for the past few years since I graduated. My 2 cents worth. Work on your presentation skills and your writing skills. Of course having someone in the MNC company might help, but most of the time this is not the case because in the end of the day, the hiring manager would want to hire someone who will be able to drive the business and not just the cousin or brother or sister of so-and-so.

At the end of the day its all about what do you have to offer to your potential company.

Like deodorant mentioned, you have to "fight" with perhaps 50 other resumes for the same position. What can you do to make your resume stand out (not in a bad way of course)? Maybe you should work on that for a start.

In a month, I KIV-ed 2 (TWO) A4 Paper boxes. Each box contains ONLY Cover Letters (CL) and Curriculum Vitae (CV). Now, can you imagine how many applicants applying for a job in a typical MNC?

Regards, Joey

p.s: Don't get me started with application through emails yet.
