✈️ Abroad Consultancy Scams EXPOSED 🚨 Don’t Get Trapped! ❌ | Telugu Podcast

In today’s Telugu Connects Podcast, we have Suraj Peri, the founder of Gradvine, a mentorship platform that puts students first, and Vamsi Giduthuri, the CMO of AutuX. Together, we discuss a big question on many students’ minds: “Is it really worth going to the USA in 2024?” With more than 3,000 universities in the USA, only a few truly offer the quality education and job opportunities students are looking for. Gradvine is a peer-to-peer mentorship and career guidance platform with a network of the world’s finest. Students often turn to ill-informed consultancies for career guidance and application advice leading them to not realize their true potential. Their mentors have successfully gone through the application process and are passionate about guiding applicants. With a network of over 1500 mentors, they helped 10000 students get admitted to top universities, including Ivy League schools, in the US, Canada, and Europe. Suraj explains how there’s a lot of misinformation around studying abroad, especially from consultancies that make the visa process seem harder than it really is. We also talk about scams in the consultancy world, where some businesses push students with false promises about getting citizenship. Suraj explains how exams like the GRE and IELTS alone aren’t enough to get into the best colleges, especially after COVID. He even calls the GRE a bit of a “scam” now, as many top universities are focusing more on actual skills and experience. We also discuss the reality of part-time jobs in the USA and why it’s so important to have the right skills if you want to succeed there. The episode also covers how to choose the best university for your course and why the location of the university matters for job placements. This episode is full of honest advice for anyone who’s thinking about studying in the USA. ~ Time Stamps : 00:00. Teaser 02:04. Introduction 02:53. Start of podcast 10:30.
